A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 279 The three Jewell brothers were glued to their screens , watching the live stream unfold .

At first , they thought Calliope was out of her mind .

She should have been at the doorstep , ready to bolt if things went south with the alligators .

Instead , she was strolling right into danger , getting way too close for comfort .

Just looking at her , they figured she was doomed .

Her outfit screamed recklessness , and they were sure she was heading for a disaster .

But to their shock , Calliope emerged unscathed , not even a drop of water on her .

The alligators did attack her , but they ended up in a sorry state , not her .

She treated them like soccer balls , kicking them around and even sending a few flying .

Ulysses rubbed his eyes , convinced something was wrong with his vision .

How could Calliope be that strong ? Was she some kind of superhero ? Did I just imagine that ? he asked , bewildered .

Horatio , Valerian , does she have that much strength ? The alligators werent tiny ; they were massive .

Any ordinary guy , even a martial artist , would struggle with so many alligators .

But Calliope ? She took them down single handedly .

Was she the crazy one , or were they ? You didnt imagine it .

I saw it too , Valerian replied after some silence , his mind confused .

He never thought Calliope had that kind of power .

Horatio frowned , puzzled .

Callie never mentioned she was that strong ! And she never told us she knew Upton , either ! Valerian scoffed .

It seems like shes been keeping a lot from us , her brothers .

She never considered us her brothers from her heart , Ulysses said , narrowing his eyes .

So what if shes strong ? Its not like shes competing in the Olympics .

Whats strength worth , anyway ? Exactly .

Even if Calliope can play the banjo or chess or shes strong , it doesnt matter .

She cant handle simple company affairs , Valerian sneered , his surprise quickly turning to disdain .

Yeah .

Calliopes skills are pretty useless , Horatio agreed with a nod .

The brothers shook their heads , convinced Calliope couldnt hold a candle to their beloved Lisette .

Lisette might not have super strength , but she excelled at running the company and had impeccable social skills .

She was a well known socialite in Capitalton , adored by many .

On the other hand , many people disliked Calliope .

Even her long time boyfriend , Gideon , had chosen Yvette over her .

It was proof enough that Calliope wasnt good enough .

Horatio , Valerian , people are blasting us online .

Theyre saying we shouldnt talk down on Calliope , saying shes amazing ! Ulysses fumed as he scrolled through his phone .

Shes not even part of the Jewell family anymore , yet shes still causing us trouble ! If shes so great , she should stop using the Ms.

Jewell name out there ! Valerian grumbled , furrowing his brow .

No worries .

Well clear things up .

Her so called abilities are pointless .

Shes a nobody with no degree , no decent job .

She cant even manage a company .

Were not wrong .

Right , she has no useful skills .

What good is being strong if shes not going to wrestle bears ? Ulysses chuckled .

She doesnt help with anything at home .

It was Lisette who helped me land that role back in the day .

Calliope doesnt have Lisettes connections , smarts , or business acumen .

She doesnt even have Lisettes temperament .
