A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 187 Isnt that Calliope ? Lisette exclaimed as she entered the pub with the Jewell brothers .

They had barely stepped inside when they noticed the commotion unfolding nearby .

Whats she gotten herself into this time ? Shell be in trouble ! Ulysses grumbled , pulling his cap lower and adjusting his mask as he glanced over at Calliope .

She cant go anywhere without stirring up trouble .

Shes never been one to play by the rules .

Valerian frowned , casting a skeptical look in Calliopes direction .

He didnt know the details , but his gut reaction was that Calliope was at the heart of whatever was going down .

Horatio hesitated , Is she in trouble ? Shouldnt we Before he could finish , Lisette interjected , We should help .

She acted out even if she had cut ties with us .

We cant just watch her get into deep waters .

Come on , guys .

We cant just leave her hanging .

It was almost like she was reminding them that Calliope had indeed distanced herself from the Jewell family .

Valerian scoffed , Why should we care ? She was the one who wanted nothing to do with us , remember ? Id like to see how she manages without our help , he added with a hint of resentment .

When she sees us , shell be begging for our help .

Ulysses nodded in agreement .

Even if she does , we wont bail her out .

She brought this on herself .

Lisette looked conflicted .

Are you sure thats the right thing to do ? Youre too kind , Lisette , Ulysses said with a shake of his head .

This is her own doing .

The brothers found a table not far from the action , where they could keep an eye on things without getting directly involved .

The commotion had caused the crowd to back off a little , but everyone was still watching .

Calliope had figured out what was happening .

The guy was bullying his wife , refusing to let her work or have any fun .

He was taking out his own failures on her , keeping her locked away , and even resorting to violence .

Move it , you witch ! the man barked at Calliope .

Thats my wife .

Im taking her home ! Disobedient women need to learn her lesson ! he snarled at Calliope , Get the hell out of my way , you bitch ! And you , come over here ! Do you think you can hide away from me forever ? Youre my wife .

Where do you think you can hide ? His eyes flashed with a vile grin as he glanced at his wife , who was cowering behind Calliope .

The woman looked around , hoping someone would step in .

But no one moved .

Everyone was just a spectator except for Calliope .

Not far away , Portia had heard the ruckus and was about to rush over , but Calliope signaled for her to stay put .

So , Portia remained among the onlookers , her eyes fixed on Calliope .

Calliope hadnt budged from her seat .

She met the mans gaze with a steady look , then glanced at the trembling woman beside her .

I can call the police , she offered .

No , please dont ! The womans face went pale at the suggestion , and she shook her head frantically .

They wont help .

Hell just come back even angrier ! Calliope frowned .

Then how can I help you ? The woman was at a loss , frozen in place and unable to ask for any specific help .

You wont move , huh ? the man sneered and lunged toward Calliope with a menacing intent .
