Then, a group of guys ganged up on him, punching and kicking from all sides.
“Gideon, you really think Calliope’s gonna come to your rescue?”
“Hah! Get real—she’s with your Uncle Silas now! Even Silas doesn’t give a damn about you, what makes you think she would?”
“She wouldn’t even admit she knew you just now. Give it up, man!”
Everyone chimed in with their own jabs, smirking and sneering.
Gideon’s face was pale, and before long, a hard kick sent him sprawling to the pavement. The beating continued, fists and boots flying.
Flat on his back, Gideon caught a glimpse of Calliope sitting in a nearby car. She glanced at him, her face cold and unreadable.
She saw what was happening. She knew he needed help. And she just watched—didn’t even flinch.
Gideon lowered his gaze, a bitter smile twisting his lips.
Was this really how his life ended up? All because of that wretched Yvette.
He clenched his jaw so hard it hurt.

The next few days, Calliope kept herself busy with work.
She’d expected the Jewell family to go bankrupt by now. Their situation should’ve been a total disaster.


Calliope frowned, pulling out her phone and making a few calls. After a bit of back and forth, she got the gist of what was going on with the Jewells.
Portia sat there, barely breathing, waiting for answers. When Calliope finally hung up, she blurted, “Well? What’s the deal?”
“The Jewells haven’t gone under. Actually, their company’s picked up some decent projects. Word is, they’ve got a mysterious benefactor backing them up.”

“Who the hell would stick their neck out for the Jewells with their reputation in the gutter?” Portia complained, shaking her head in disbelief.
Calliope couldn’t think of anyone either.
“God, I was counting on them going broke! I wanted to see them regret everything—now look!” Portia stabbed the cake even harder, making the plate rattle. “Whoever did this is an absolute jerk! I swear, I’m about to lose it!”

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......
