A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 285 Calliope stepped forward , giving a nod of acknowledgment to her opponents .

With a slight , confident smile , she said , Lets give it all weve got , folks .

Id prefer a quick and decisive match .

Her opponents exchanged surprised glances , not expecting such boldness from Calliope .

They thought she was being overly cocky .

But Calliope remained unruffled , fully prepared for what was to come .

Is she seriously going to fight in high heels and an evening gown ? someone in the crowd murmured .

Come on .

Thats ridiculous ! She should at least change into something more practical .

Does she think she can take down these experts in a few minutes ? These guys are TV famous , big names ! Yara went through quite an effort to bring them here .

Theyre top tier in the bodyguard world , renowned for their skills ! The chatter was skeptical , with not many placing their bets on Calliope .

Shell win , Wynton said confidently , holding his jacket that Calliope had worn earlier .

Shes incredible ! How do you know ? No way .

These guys are legends .

Theres no way Calliope can beat them ! Yeah , is she even that agile ? Sure , shes got strength , maybe even superhuman , but fighting isnt just about strength but skill ! Especially against martial arts champs ! Mr.

Stewart , do you think Calliope will win ? someone asked Uriah .

Uriah hesitated .

Hed never expected much before , but slowly , hed realized he might have underestimated her .

With Silas not worried at all , it seemed she could definitely handle it .

Yet , he was puzzled .

Mavis always said Calliope was full of surprises , but he hadnt realized how .

Facing world champions , if she won , wouldnt that mean she could represent the country or something ? Uriah winced .

International champions were a big deal .

Her talent was almost frightening .

He suspected she could win , but he wasnt sure how long it would take .

Hopefully , it wouldnt drag out into a grueling affair .

Uriah shrugged .

Im not sure .

Mr.

Stewart , dont underestimate her ! Wynton glared at him .

Uriah was speechless .

Meanwhile , Yara , chain smoking like a chimney , was torn .

She admired Calliope but was irked at the thought of losing the bet and having to let Silas go .

She was a bit miffed , having to give up the man she fancied .

Calliope , on the other hand , was already in motion .

As she raised her eyes , one of the opponents lunged at her with lightning speed .

She stood still , waiting for the right moment , then struck with precision and swiftness .

In that split second , she moved so fast that only a blur was visible .

The audience could barely grasp what had happened and only saw the attacker suddenly hit the ground .

Then , a woman rushed in next , moving even faster , coordinating with others to throw Calliope off .
