A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 110 Calliope stood there , her eyes twinkling with a mix of mischief and sincerity .

Im fine , she insisted .

I wouldnt have stepped in to help if I thought I was in any real danger .

I would have done the same for anyone .

Oh , and heres a little secret for you .

Im kind of a big deal with holistic medicine .

My hands will be fine , no scars or anything , so theres no need to worry ! She puffed her cheeks playfully and shook Silass arm gently , her bright eyes wide with hopeful anticipation .

Silas met her gaze and felt his resolve crumble .

No matter how frustrated he was , his heart softened instantly .

He wasnt upset that she had helped Nigel .

But seeing her injured and her hand wrapped up sent a pang through his chest .

He knew how skilled she was and that she was renowned for her healing abilities .

Still , he couldnt bear the thought of her getting hurt .

Just dont make a habit of it .

Calliope sighed with relief .

I promise it wont happen again ! Silas nodded slightly , and his worry slightly eased .

Meanwhile , outside the hospital , Valerian stood frozen .

His phone call just ended .

The bustling crowd moved around him , but he remained rooted , oblivious to the occasional bump from passersby .

It was her .

It was really her ! For years , Valerian had it all wrong .

The person he owed his life to , the one he should have treated with gratitude , wasnt Lisette .

It was Callie , the sister he had always dismissed as a troublemaker .

It was Callie who had dragged him from the flames of that terrible fire .

Yet he had never believed her .

Callie hadnt left the country back then .

She had only rushed off after helping him , when Gideon needed her urgently .

And Lisette had taken the credit .

Valerian had never bothered to uncover the truth for years , even though Calliope had tried to tell him many times .

He had accused her , saying she had abandoned him for a romantic adventure abroad as he lay near death .

He had called Callie heartless , called her a jinx , incapable of saving him .

And now , the truth hit him like a slap in the face .

It had been easy to confirm , yet he had willfully ignored it .

Valerian slapped himself hard , overwhelmed with regret .

Why had he trusted Lisette over Callie ? He looked up , eyes red with emotion , and suddenly spotted Callie in the crowd .

Valerians body trembled as he moved towards her , his eyes darting briefly to Silas before dismissing him entirely .

Callie , I was wrong .

I remember now .

Im so sorry for everything ! Calliope was stunned by Valerians sudden appearance and unexpected apology .

She eyed him with caution .

After all , Valerian was usually the one to criticize her the most , always ready with a snide remark .

This new demeanor was completely unexpected .

While seeing her wary expression , Valerians heart ached .

Callie no longer trusted him .

Chapter 110 Callie , I know the truth now .

Ive figured it out .

It was you who saved me from the fire three years ago , not Lisette , wasnt it ? Callie , why didnt you tell me the truth sooner ?
