A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 231 The next day , Calliope kept her promise to Baber and went to the hospital to pick him up .

Baber had been ready for a while , eagerly waiting for her .

As soon as he saw her , his face lit up with excitement .

Mommy ! Youre finally here ! Ive been all set and waiting ! The little guy was dressed in a casual outfit , a small crossbody bag slung over his shoulder , and his hands stuffed coolly into his pockets .

He looked both dashing and adorable .

Calliope ruffled his hair .

You feeling okay today ? No discomfort ? Nope! After you gave me that treatment , I felt way better ! Good .

If anything feels off , you tell me right away .

Calliope smiled at him warmly , took his hand , and led him out of the hospital .

Of course , Upton doted on his son immensely and had always gone to great lengths to protect him .

That meant Baber never left the house without a full security team in tow .

Even though Calliope had asked Upton to tone things down , he still insisted on assigning some highly skilled bodyguards to accompany them .

So they still had four guards tailing them as they left .

Two black cars pulled out from the hospital and headed straight for the amusement park .

Since it was the weekend , the place was packed with families and excited kids .

Babers eyes gleamed with thrill and anticipation as he took in the bustling surroundings .

Great ! Everything looks so fun ! Mommy , you have to go on all the rides with me ! Of course ! Your dad never takes you to places like this , huh ? Calliope knew Upton well enough to know he wasnt the type of guy whod take Baber to an amusement park .

Honestly , she doubted he had ever set foot in one , even as a kid .

Genius types like him were usually a little different from the rest of the world .

Calliope and Baber strolled into the park , stopping at a food stand to grab a couple of hot dogs .

They ate as they plotted their first rides .

Mr.

Thorne , perhaps it would be better to avoid street food .

One of the bodyguards , watching Baber chomp down on his food , frowned in concern .

Relax , he has a stronger stomach than his big shot dad .

A little hot dog wont hurt him , Calliope said between bites .

You guys wanna grab some too ? My treat .

That wont be necessary .

Few minutes later , all four bodyguards were holding hot dogs of their own .

Calliope was left speechless .

You guys bought tickets too , right ? That means you can go on the rides with us , Baber uttered earnestly .

Since were here , itll be a pity not taking the most of it ! We are here to ensure your safety , Mr.

Thorne .

You and Ms.

Jewell should enjoy the rides .

Seriousness was written all over the bodyguards faces .

Let them be , Baber .

Lets go have some real fun .

And so , Calliope took Baber away .

They started with the carousel , then worked their way through roller coasters , bumper cars … 1/2 19:19 Then came the haunted house .

The moment they approached it , the bodyguards felt nervous .

Perhaps it would be best to skip this one .

Youre still a kid , Mr.

Thorne .

The attraction may not be suitable for you .

Im not scared , Baber said , glancing at the four men .

Wait … dont tell me you guys are scared ? No , absolutely not ! Our priority is to protect you ! the bodyguards stated , a picture of firmness .

Calliope couldnt hold back her laughter .

It was obvious they were terrified .

If youre too scared , you can wait outside .

Dont worry , Ill keep Baber safe .

No can do .

Our focus must remain on Mr.

Thorne at all times .

So in the end , they followed them in .

What followed was a series of loud , unrestrained screams .

The four bodyguards , who , instead of protecting , ended up clinging to Calliope and Baber for dear life .
