A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 244 A hand was everything .

And just like that , Upton had shattered Lisettes wrist .

That was too much , too cruel .

But they valued their own skin more than their pride .

And this was Upton they were dealing with .

A man of his stature ? He could wipe the Jewell family off the face of the earth with a snap of his fingers .

So , instead of blaming him , they turned their fury toward Calliope .

If you dare lay a finger on Baber again , Upton murmured , eyes narrowing as he looked at Lisette , Ill ensure you lose more than just a hand .

Lisette gritted her teeth , clutching her mangled wrist , her face drained of all color .

The pain was unbearable .

The hatred in her eyes was unmistakable , but she didnt dare look directly at Upton .

If it werent for Callies connection to you , I wouldnt have been this merciful , Upton continued coldly .

You should be thanking her .

His gaze swept over the group .

Now get lost .

No one hesitated .

In a flurry of movement , the brothers grabbed Lisette and rushed her out to surgery .

Outside the operating room , Horatio , Ulysses , and Valerian stood in tense silence , their anger simmering just beneath the surface .

Calliope is not our sister anymore , Ulysses declared , voice tight with fury .

I swear Ill make her pay for what she did to Lisette .

She just stood there and watched , Horatio muttered , brows furrowed in disbelief .

Shes not the Callie we grew up with .

She doesnt care about any of us , her blood brothers .

So why would she care about Lisette ? Valerian scoffed , bitterness lacing his words .

Shes too busy clinging to Silas , acting like shes something special .

She really thinks Silas will always back her ? Ulysses sneered .

And Upton ? Hell return to Sea City sooner or later .

This isnt over .

Just then , Zelda stormed into the hospital , her heels clicking sharply against the floor .

I just got the call ! What the hell happened to Lisette ? she demanded , looking at her three sons with wide , frantic eyes .

Who else ? That damn Calliope , Valerian snapped .

What did she do this time? Zeldas eyes narrowed dangerously .

Shes the reason Lisette had a broken wrist ! Ulysses said , teeth clenched .

That witch didnt lift a finger to help .

Calliope knew where the Miracle Doctor was .

She knew how to save Horatio .

But she chose to do nothing .

She couldve stopped Lisette from getting hurt , but she just stood there and watched .

She wanted to see us suffer .

His voice dropped to a venomous whisper .

Calliope really is a curse , a damn plague on our family .

Zeldas face twisted with fury .

Where is that disgrace ? Ill handle her myself .

Valerian caught her wrist before she could storm off .

Not now , Mom .

Shes in Uptons sons hospital room .

Silas is there too .

He swallowed his frustration .

We wait .

Well deal with her when theyre not around .

Zelda exhaled sharply , shaking with rage .

Fine .

She turned back to the operating room with her eyes filled with worry .

God , I hope they can fix Lisettes hand .

Shes brilliant and gifted .

Her hands are everything .

The three brothers shared the same anxious expression .

Meanwhile , Calliope had no idea what was happening outside the surgery room .

She was too busy laughing 1/2 05:18 Chapter 244 with Baber , playing like two carefree kids .

Silas and Upton sat nearby , their conversation smooth and unhurried , discussing business .

Now and then , their gazes drifted toward Calliope and Baber .

Two powerful men , exuding dominance and control yet when they looked at the lady and the boy , their eyes softened with something almost indulgent .
