A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 113 When that explosion happened years ago , I was in total shock .

I wanted to save you , but someone held me back .

Later , Callie saved you , but then she left , and I went with you to the hospital .

I was so confused back then , scared out of my mind .

I even wished I could trade places with you .

Everyone thought I was the one who saved you .

Even Mom and Dad said it was me .

Everyone kept saying I saved your life , and by the time I realized I should explain , it was too late .

Everyone believed it , and I was terrified .

Lisette looked up , her eyes red and filled with tears , gazing pitifully at Valerian .

Valerian felt a sharp pang in his heart as he looked at her .

Valerian , I swear I didnt mean for this to happen … but I know I messed up , letting everyone think it was me instead of Callie .

Being only the adopted daughter of the Jewell family , I shouldnt have let it happen .

Maybe I should leave the Jewell family .

Callie never liked me , and its my fault she left .

Lisette sobbed .

Ill pack my things right now .

Valerian , tell Callie Im leaving .

I wont take her family away anymore .

Shes the real Jewell .

Ive always been an outsider .

Valerian reached out and grabbed Lisette .

You silly girl .

Youve been with the Jewell family for so long .

Blood doesnt matter anymore .

Stop crying .

I know you didnt mean any harm .

It wasnt your fault .

Anyone would have been confused in that situation .

Valerian … Lisette looked up at Valerian with hope .

Silly girl .

Valerian wiped her tears and hugged her , gently patting her shoulder .

But what about Callie ? She must be furious , right ? Lisette lowered her gaze , I know she must be angry .

Ive apologized repeatedly , but she says shell never forgive me .

I dont know what to do , she wants to tell everyone the truth … If everyone finds out I lied , how can I face anyone in Capitalton ? Valerian ruffled her hair .

Dont worry about it .

Ill handle this .

No one will ever find out you lied .

But- No buts .

Now take the fruit and go to your room to rest .

Valerian , youre the best brother ever ! Lisette hugged Valerian tightly and gave him a quick peck on the cheek .

Valerian blushed to the roots of his hair , watching her dart away , his heart thumping wildly .

Calliope returned home with Silas .

The entire car ride was shrouded in silence , creating a heavy atmosphere .

Calliope felt a knot in her stomach .

She knew she had saved her husbands nemesis .

It was natural for Silas to be upset .

Even though she had explained , she understood that Silas probably still had reservations .

She wasnt sure how to smooth things over with him .

The last thing she wanted was to cause a rift with Silas because of Nigel .

She knew where her priorities lay .

Once they got home , Calliope glanced at Silas and , summoning her courage , said , Honey , I had my reasons .

Can you please stop being mad ?
