A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 292 Yeah .

Monty rubbed his temples, feeling the stress from the recent company issues .

Lately , with Upton squeezing us , weve lost quite a bit of business .

Calliope has caused all the trouble .

Cant she just talk some sense into Upton ? Well be bankrupt if this keeps up ! Todays deal is one we have to secure .

Mr.

Lopez even mentioned introducing us to more clients .

Lisette will help us nail it , right ? Valerian had complete faith in Lisette .

He chuckled and reassured his father , Dad , dont worry .

Lisettes got this .

Shes always sealed the deals for you .

Unlike Calliope , who only brings trouble .

Youre right .

Dad , Val ! Lisette walked over to them , her arm still in a sling but looking upbeat and in good spirits .

Lisette , were counting on you today ! Monty lightly patted her on the shoulder .

Dont worry .

Ill do my best .

Lisette was brimming with confidence .

Anyone whod dealt with her wouldnt like Calliope .

Its just one client after all , how hard can it be ? Valerian drove them to the hotel , and once they arrived , Monty and Lisette headed straight to the private room .

Most of the guests were already there when they entered .

Monty pushed open the door and felt a bit sheepish when seeing everyone had arrived early .

My apologies , Mr.

Lopez , am I late ? Not at all .

We just got here early .

At the head of the table sat Mr.

Lopez , a man in his thirties with a commanding presence .

Come , have a seat .

Lisette followed Monty into the room and took a seat .

Mr.

Lopez glanced toward the door , Mr.

Jewell , where is Ms.

Jewell ? Right here ! Monty pointed to Lisette with a smile .

I forgot to introduce her .

This is my daughter , Lisette .

Say hello ! Lisette stood up to greet everyone , but whispers started circulating before she could speak .

Wait , this isnt the Ms.

Jewell I saw online ! Werent we supposed to meet Calliope ? Who is this ? Mr.

Lopez , is there some mistake ? The room buzzed with murmurs as eyes turned toward Mr.

Lopez .

Monty chuckled nervously , feeling sweat bead on his back .

Calliope is my daughter , and Lisette is also my daughter .

Theyre both the same .

Calliope hasnt been in the business .

Lisette handles all the company matters ! I brought Lisette because shes more suitable for this .

Mr.

Lopez , Lisette is more qualified than Callie and knows the company inside out , Monty insisted earnestly .

Lisette smiled and added , Mr.

Lopez , when it comes to business , Im the one you should be talking to .

My sister hasnt been in the business .

She doesnt know a thing .

Who told you I wanted to talk business with you ? Mr.

Lopezs voice was steely , his gaze icy .

I asked for Calliope .

Are you Calliope ? Is your name Calliope ? He turned back to Monty , his expression hardening , Mr.

Jewell , if you dont want to work with me , thats fine .

But dont try to fool me !
