A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 190 She seemed worried about Calliope but was thrilled inside .

The more Calliope ticked off that guy , the better .

She loved a good spectacle and didnt mind the chaos .

Hey , Mr.

Horatio , isnt that your sister over there ? Arent you going to step in and help her out ? Someone called over to Horatio and his group .

We only have one sister , and shes here with us .

That woman ? Ive never seen her before , Ulysses scoffed , purposely raising his voice so everyone around could hear .

A ripple of whispers and chuckles spread through the crowd , Calliope and Portia heard it too .

Especially Calliope .

She knew Ulysses was making sure she heard him .

She lifted her eyes and glanced toward his way .

Her expression was calm , her eyes indifferent , almost icy .

Ulysses felt a weird twinge of discomfort at her gaze but stubbornly raised an eyebrow at her , like he was daring her .

Go on .

Beg us for help .

He seemed to challenge silently .

But Calliope was unfazed .

She looked at them as if they were strangers .

Just then , Gideon appeared out of nowhere , positioning himself where Calliope could clearly see him .

He surveyed the scene , assuming shed turn to someone for help now that the Jewell family wasnt backing her .

He wanted her to come to him for assistance .

Calliope did see Gideon , but she didnt react at all .

She didnt even spare him a second glance , as if he were invisible .

Fine , Im calling the cops now ! Lets see how you handle that ! the man shouted , pulling out his phone to dial 911 .

Calliope remained calm .

Go ahead .

Call them .

She picked up a wine and swirled it lazily , exuding a chilling aura that was hard to put into words .

The police arrived in no time .

Before Calliope could say a word , the man launched into an accusatory rant .

The officers turned to the woman with him , Did she assault you ? Yes , she hit me ! The woman squinted maliciously at Calliope .

Shes trying to steal my husband , so she attacked us both ! What the … Portia was flabbergasted , Lady , there are cameras here .

You had those bruises when you showed up ! Your husbands the one who hit you .

How dare you pin this on Callie ? Cameras ? Oh , the cameras must be down , the woman retorted slyly .

Anybody here sees what happened ? the man pressed the crowd .

Did I hit her ? Everyone glanced at the Jewell family , but they remained silent .

The crowd followed suit , not a word from anyone .

Portia laughed in disbelief .

They must be blind .

But I saw it .

This guy has abused his wife .

But his wife is no saint either .

Serves her right! No , it wasnt him ! the woman sobbed , It was her ! She attacked me on purpose ! Hey , Gideon , you saw what happened , right ? Portia turned to him .

Callie didnt hit anyone , did she ? Gideon glanced at Calliope .

It doesnt look like shes asking for my help .
