A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 169 Yep , Calliope has never performed anything before .

She probably cant do anything ! So , shes just a pretty face .

Tsk , tsk , shes hiding in the corner , not coming out .

No wonder the Jewell family parents dont like her .

The room buzzed with murmurs .

Disdain filled their eyes as they glanced at Calliope .

Calliope heard them but chose to ignore their words .

Portia was fuming , her fists clenched tightly , while Archie looked ready to stand up and start a fight .

But Calliope held Archie down , her face calm and composed .

After Lisette finished her piece , a few women turned to Calliope , taunting , Ms.

Lisette has performed .

Wont Ms.

Calliope show us something ? Yeah , right .

Ms.

Lisette can play the piano .

Can Ms.

Calliope do anything ? Come on , Calliope ? What can she do besides getting into fights ! * Tsk , tsk , it seems like shes got no talent .

Lisette is impressive ! Ms.

Calliope probably doesnt even know what a piano is , huh ? Calliope , arent you going to perform ? Calliope knew these women well .

They were Lisettes entourage .

They relished in mocking her , always trying to put her down .

Every birthday party , it was the same old show .

But each time , Zelda would prevent Calliope from responding .

This year , however , she had no reason to refuse , especially since she had something prepared .

If everyone wants to hear me play , I suppose I can give it a shot .

Calliope stood up , making her way to the piano slowly and deliberately .

Lisette watched in shock .

She assumed Calliope would avoid the situation like always .

Her eyes narrowed slightly .

But it didnt matter , because what could Calliope possibly play ? When Lisette learned various skills , Zelda tried to make Calliope learn too , but she was never interested .

So she never learned anything , she wasnt good at anything .

Zeldas face turned ashen as she saw Calliope heading to the stage .

She was exasperated , pulling Calliope aside to whisper , Have you lost your mind ? What are you doing ? You dont even know how many keys a piano has ! Not only will you embarrass yourself , but youll also bring shame to the Jewell family .

Calliope , Ill cut ties with you if you dare to touch the piano ! Calliope glanced at Zelda indifferently .

Sure .

Ignoring Zelda , she approached the piano .

Lisette held onto Zelda , whispering , Mom , maybe we should let Callie try .

Maybe shes learned something recently ? Shes too dim to learn anything ! Zelda fumed .

Shell only disgrace us ! Unnoticed , Ulysses had also approached Calliope , glaring at her with clenched teeth .

What are you doing up there embarrassing us ! Chapter 169 Calliope acted as if she hadnt heard him .

She adjusted her position , looking out at the crowd , a slight smirk on her lips as she pressed the keys .

Just as Ulysses was about to grab her hand , she began to play skillfully .

The melodious tune filled the hall .

And Calliope played the same piece Lisette had performed earlier .

Moonlight Sonata was known for its high difficulty and challenging for most to master .

Lisettes performance was commendable , but it lacked a certain finesse .

However , Calliopes rendition was startlingly perfect , leaving the audience in awe .

The entire hall erupted in surprise , followed by a deep silence as everyone listened intently .
