Ulysses shot Valerian a look that was almost amused.
“Lisette isn’t even our real sister, and you know it. Do you actually see her as family?”
He let out a snort. “Come on, what kind of real brother would sleep with his own sister? Valerian, man, that’s just gross. Get a grip, will you?”
Valerian’s jaw dropped. “What?!”
Ulysses went on, “Oh, and in case you didn’t notice, she tried flirting with me too. Lisette’s been pulling every trick in the book just to stay in the Jewell family.”
He stood up so quickly his chair scraped against the hardwood. “You can mess with Callie all you want, but this? I’m not gonna let it slide.
Horatio, you want to back us up, great. If not, well, that’s your call. Just remember this—being able to walk again? That was Callie. Nobody else. If it weren’t for her, your whole life would still be pitch black.”
Valerian was furious. “Ulysses, what the hell are you talking about? Are you just making stuff up for Calliope’s sake? What did Lisette ever do to you? Did Callie put some kind of spell on you or something?”
His voice was rising. “What did she promise you, huh? Money? Are you betraying us for a fat paycheck?”
He lunged at Ulysses, swinging a fist. Ulysses dodged, eyes ice-cold, and punched back. Suddenly, the room erupted into chaos. The two brothers were throwing punches, locked in a furious brawl.
Zelda shrieked. “Stop it! Please, both of you, just stop!”
She hustled over, trying to pull them apart. But Valerian wouldn’t back down, and Ulysses was just as stubborn.
“And Grandpa’s estate? That was always ours. She just took it behind our backs, hid who she was. She’s obviously been scheming from the start.”
“She’s bad news, end of story. Don’t let her mess with your head. Uly’s already fallen for it. Don’t tell me you’re next. Wake up, Horatio. She’s not who you think she is.”
Horatio shook his head. “I’m staying out of it. It’s not my business.”
With that, he walked out, leaving a heavy silence in his wake.
Valerian turned to Monty and Zelda, his voice desperate. “Dad, Mom, what about you? Tell me you don’t actually think Uly’s right. That woman’s poisoned his mind!”
Zelda snapped, “Valerian, we’re going ahead with the press conference. Everything in this family belongs to us, and we’re getting it back. End of story.”

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
