A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 257 What ? Giving the inheritance to the adopted daughter over the biological one ? That mother must be out of her mind ! Yeah , kneeling and begging doesnt make it right , does it ? The people around had mixed reactions to Calliopes words .

Some began to see Calliope had a point for not wanting to help .

Calliope gave Zelda and Valerian a knowing wink and smiled slightly , In life , you should at least try to be fair .

First , you call me a jinx and then favor your adopted daughter over me , and now you ask for my help? Arent you ashamed ? With that , she turned on her heel and walked away .

Noticing the crowds shifting attitude , Zelda stood up in anger .

Calliope , just wait and see ! Calliope didnt look back .

She got into her car and drove home .

Halfway there , her phone rang .

It was Uriah .

Where are you ? Uriah Stewarts voice came through the phone , carrying a hint of seriousness .

On my way home , Calliope replied , puzzled .

Is there something going on , Mr.

Stewart ? Not with me , but your husband seems to have been in a pickle .

Uriahs voice was steady .

Could you swing by Midnight Romance ? Im waiting for you here .

Okay .

Calliope frowned slightly .

She wasnt sure what was happening , but if Uriah wasnt explaining over the phone , it must be complicated .

She turned her car around and headed to Midnight Romance .

Midnight Romance was a nightclub owned by Uriah , and business was booming .

Calliope and her friend Mavis would occasionally drop by for fun .

Calliope went straight to a private room .

Uriah was in the middle of a conversation but nodded at her as she entered .

Calliope sensibly took a seat in the corner and waited .

Once Uriahs companion left , she turned her attention to him .

The room was dim , and Uriah , much like his friend Silas , exuded a powerful presence that was almost palpable .

Mr.

Stewart , you mentioned something about my husband .

Whats wrong ? Calliope got straight to the point .

Silas had indeed gone out the previous night .

Shed received a strange photo but chose to ignore it .

Your husbands been detained by a woman .

Uriah sighed , Seems like you might need to rescue him .

Yara Xander ? Calliope guessed .

You know her ? Uriah looked surprised .

Yes , its Yara .

She has a thing for Silas .

She lured him over under some pretense , drugged him , and now has him locked up .

She wants him to divorce you , saying she wont let him go unless you come to get him .

You know Yaras reputation .

Shes not someone you want to mess with .

Uriah added , I think unless you go , Silas might end up in a compromising situation .

Calliope looked at Uriah , bewildered .

Seriously ? Uriah nodded earnestly .

Shes made it clear .

No one else but you can get him out .

Silass tangled love affairs ? Uriah watched her expression closely .

So , are you going to rescue him ? Calliope frowned .

Where is he ? With his skills , how could Yara hold him ? She found it hard to believe .

Silas was more than capable .

How could Yara lock him up so easily ? And why did she need to go to rescue him ? She pulled out her phone .

I know where she is , she said , Indicating the address included in the mysterious photo .
