A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 215 Eamon and the others didnt touch the food either .

The Jansens were an absolute sight at the table .

They dug into the food with such gusto that it was a wonder any of it remained on the plates .

While Verena , ever the solicitous , noticed their remaining motionless and urged them to eat , which added more flying bits in the plates .

There wasnt that .

Oul at the table who could muster the appetite to eat anything after You folks go ahead and enjoy .

Were not too hungry , Eamon said with a forced chuckle .

Gideons face was extremely sour .

He was beginning to seriously reconsider his decision to marry Yvette .

If her family acted like this at the wedding , theyd become the laughingstock of their circle .

He shot a sharp look at Yvette .

Hed asked her to talk to her family about their behavior , but clearly , it hadnt helped .

Or maybe she hadnt even tried .

They were acting like this despite his request .

Yvette gave him an innocent , aggrieved look .

Shed originally suggested hiring some actors to play her parents for the occasion , but Gideon had vetoed the idea , saying it would be too risky and someone might catch on .

That was why they stuck on her actual ones .

However , they hadnt expected the situation would turn into like this now .

She couldnt rein them in .

Her mother and stepfather were always difficult to deal with , and forcing her to do things had been their daily routine ..

Yvettes family continued their feeding frenzy until every last morsel was devoured .

Satiated , Verena let out a loud burp and patted her full stomach .

Oh boy , Im stuffed ! Not just full , but completely bloated ! As she spoke , she glanced at Eamon and the others .

Hope you didnt mind us digging in like that .

Weve never had such feast , we left all the table manners behind .

They still knew about table manners ? Gideon watched the scene , too exasperated to even comment .

But , really , why didnt you all eat anything ? Just sat there watching us , huh ? Makes us feel a bit awkward , Verena added .

Come on , have a bite ! Theres some left , you can go ahead .

No , were fine .

As long as you all are satisfied .

Fleurs distaste was evident .

She cast an unwitting glance at Calliope , who sat quietly, occasionally whispering something to Silas , a bemused smile on her lips .

To Fleur , that smile was laced with irony .

Calliope must be loving this .

Fleur hadnt wanted her as the daughter in law , but in the end , her son married Yvette .

If Yvettes parents were anything to go by , Yvette was bound to be trouble too .

Fleur felt a pang of regret .

Maybe she shouldnt have been so against Calliope and her son being together if shed known it earlier .

Even though Calliope had been disowned by her family , at least she was a proper lady .

And at least her family had some semblance of decorum .

Never in her life had Fleur met people as uncultured and rude as Yvettes family .

Oh , and about the wedding gifts we were discussing earlier , Verena piped up .

Based on what weve heard , given your familys status , it should be around eight million dollars ! What ? Fleur gasped , feeling as if shed been struck .

The Bakers were wealthy , sure , but their money wasnt hers to give away .

Her husband and son didnt have that kind of cash lying around .

Fleur was almost amused by the absurdity .

This family , who couldnt even scrape together a few thousand , had the audacity to demand eight million ! Mrs.

Baker , thats just the going rate .

No need to get so worked up , Verena said with a chuckle .

Eight million
