A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 302 Valerian turned around , just realizing Lisette hadnt come in .

She was stuck at the doorway , blocked by Snowy , their large , fluffy pet .

Calliope , whats going on ? Valerian snapped , clearly frustrated .

Oh , its just that she reeks of urine , and Snowy doesnt like it , Calliope shrugged .

What can I do ? Snowy has a sensitive nose .

Did you do this on purpose ? Valerians eyes bore into Calliope , filled with confusion and anger .

Not at all , Calliope replied casually .

Snowy doesnt like strong smells .

And with her urine smelling so bad , I think shes probably dehydrated or something .

Snowy is not a fan .

Cant you guys smell it ? Its that strong , Calliope said , glancing at Lisette .

How about you should wait outside for a bit ? If you insist on coming in , I cant guarantee Snowy wont bite … After all , Snowy is a tiger , and if it nips , I cant say whether it would be a nip or something worse , Calliope said lazily , sitting back on the couch with a relaxed air .

Million , the wolf lounging on the carpet nearby , turned its head to see what the commotion was about .

It yawned before settling back down , uninterested .

Calliope looked at Monty and the others with a tilted head .

So , why are you guys here ? If I remember correctly , we signed the papers and had nothing to do with each other , right ? Whatever you want to call it , family ties or not , whats done is done .

Are you all going back on your word now ? Callie , I know you didnt mean what you said , Monty hurried to say .

I missed you , so I came to see you .

Your brothers miss you , too ! You blocked us all , so we had no other way to reach you but this , Monty glanced at Valerian .

I know youre mad at us , and were here to apologize .

Calliope leaned forward , intrigued .

Oh , you know Im mad at you ? She rested her arms on the cushions , leaning closer to Monty .

So , what exactly am I mad about ? Why would I even be mad at you ? Isnt it because we treated Lisette well , and shes just better than you , and you got jealous ? Ulysses interjected , annoyance lacing his tone .

Calliope , even though its not really our fault , Dad sent us here to apologize , so here we are .

Wow , you dont sound like youre here to apologize .

You sound more like youre here to collect a debt , Calliope retorted , unfazed .

Sorry to burst your bubble , but youre mistaken .

Im not mad .

Why would I waste my energy being mad at strangers ? I have better things to do .

I dont have the time or patience to fuss over irrelevant people , she said , her tone dismissive .

Ulysses face clouded over , his expression darkening .

Horatio and Valerian didnt look much better , their faces paling slightly .

Calliopes demeanor was indifferent .

She sat there , doing nothing in particular , yet exuding an air of superiority .

It was as if she were a tier above them , unreachable .

A creeping unease settled in , like ants crawling over their hearts , leaving a prickling anxiety in their wake .

Monty shifted uneasily .

Callie , I know we messed up .

We shouldve been more on your side !
