A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 252 She had found a way , albeit a bit risky , but she was pretty confident about it .

After discussing it with Upton , she treated Baber in earnest .

Calliope spent an entire day tending to Baber and administering medicine and herbal baths .

It was a long day from dawn till dusk .

Baber had fallen into a deep sleep by evening .

Calliope stayed by his bedside , observing his condition .

It seemed everything was going smoothly .

Did it work ? Upton had been there the whole day , watching without interrupting and observing Calliope as she worked her magic .

Yeah , unless something unexpected happens , Babers Issues should be resolved , Calliope sighed with relief .

Tomorrow , he should wake up as lively as ever , and you wont have to worry anymore ! Thank you so much , Upton said earnestly , pulling out a check and offering it to Calliope .

Consider it Babers medical fee .

Take it , please .

Calliope hesitated .

Come on .

Babers my godson .

I cant take money for treating him ! Ill feel uneasy if I dont give it to you .

Are you just swimming in money ? Calliope teased , shaking her head .

Keep your money .

You know Im more interested in those fascinating artifacts you collect .

Just give me one of those sometime ! Alright then .

Upton tucked the check away .

They both sat down and shared a cup of coffee .

If Babers alright , Ill take him home tomorrow .

Is there anything he needs to be mindful of ? Upton inquired .

Ill send you a list on your phone .

Baber will need to continue with some medication for a while , Calliope explained .

Once he finishes it , hell be just like any other kid .

Hell be thrilled when he wakes up , Upton chuckled .

To him , youve always been the most amazing person in the world .

Well , I am pretty amazing , Calliope quipped , sipping her coffee .

By the way , have you done anything to the Jewell Group lately ? Ive put a slight damper on their business and taken a few partners away , Upton replied casually .

Calliope nodded , understanding Upton hadnt gone overboard , likely out of consideration for her .

Do you want to reclaim the Jewell Group ? he asked .

Its not the right time yet , Calliope said calmly .

Upton offered , If you need my help , say the word .

Of course .

You know Ill never be shy about asking ! Calliope grinned , her eyes twinkling .

Upton paused , then said , If Silas ever gives you a hard time , let me know .

Sea City always welcomes you if things arent going well in Capitalton.

You know I see you as my sister .

Yeah , Calliope nodded , I know I have an amazing brother in Sea City ! Upton smiled softly .

He said gratefully , Without you , there wouldnt be a Baber .

Calliope nodded .

Its a shame that I could only save Baber .

I couldnt do anything for your wife .

She sighed , remembering how helpless she felt , wanting to help but unable to do so .

Mentioning his late wife brought a shadow of sadness to Uptons eyes .

Both of them fell silent and were lost in their thoughts until Silas walked in .

He was carrying some food , 1/2 06:08 Chapter 252 something for Baber and Calliopes favorites too .

Hows Baber ? he asked , knowing Calliope had used a slightly risky method for the treatment .

Everything went very smoothly , Upton replied , looking up .

Hes asleep now .
