A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 851

“They’re all talking nonsense!”

Suddenly, a clear voice rang out—Ulysses Jewell had just stepped in, microphone already in hand.

The moment he entered, every single pair of eyes turned to him.

He was the picture of a modern celebrity—strikingly handsome, dressed in the latest streetwear, just like his fans imagined him. But right now, he seemed like he was here to defend Calliope Jewell.

Wait, what did he just say?

People shot confused looks at Ulysses.

Wasn’t he supposed to be on the Jewell family’s side? Shouldn’t he be tearing into Calliope, angry like the rest?

But no—Ulysses didn’t look like he was here to back up his family at all. If anything, it seemed like he was about to go to bat for Calliope.

And then, all of a sudden, another odd detail hit everyone: for a Jewell family press conference, the whole family wasn’t even present.

Horatio, the eldest, was nowhere to be found. Ulysses, the third son, had only just arrived.

“Uly, what are you doing here? Didn’t you have something important to take care of?” Valerian Jewell shot his brother a warning glare, hoping Ulysses, even if he wasn’t going to help, wouldn’t make a scene.

If Ulysses started stirring the pot now, it’d be disastrous for the Jewell family.

Monty Jewell was also glaring daggers at Ulysses. He knew what was coming—Ulysses had been against this whole thing from the start. God knows how Calliope had managed to sway him, but now he was clearly on her side.

He used to hate Calliope the most. Now? He was standing up for her.

“When did I ever say I had something else to do?” Ulysses looked up, a cold smirk on his lips. “Valerian, I told you: don’t hold this press conference. We should have talked to Callie first, cleared things up before making this mess.”

“And all this stuff you’re saying—do you even have proof?”

“Or maybe it’s not even about Grandpa’s estate at all!”

“What really matters is the money in Calliope’s hands. That’s what you want, isn’t it?”

“You’re just greedy.”

Ulysses stepped up to the stage, his words making the faces of the Jewell family darken with anger.

“Ulysses, that’s enough!”

Valerian stood up, his voice shaking with anger. “I don’t know what sort of spell Calliope’s put on you, but we’re only trying to take back what’s rightfully ours!”

If Ulysses wouldn’t help, fine—but now he was undermining them in public.

Monty’s voice was low and rough as he glared at Ulysses, “Uly, that’s enough. The truth will speak for itself, and everyone watching—journalists, the public—they’ll figure it out.”
