A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 315 Calliope stared into Dantes eyes , searching for anything that would give her a clue about who he was or why he seemed to know her .

But she found nothing .

It was like trying to read a book in a language she had never seen .

After pondering for a while , something clicked in her mind .

Did I help someone you know ? A relative , maybe ? Is that why you recognize me ? she asked , almost reflexively .

It wasnt a far fetched idea .

Calliope often helped people without expecting anything in return when she was a doctor .

Sometimes , theyd return years later , grateful and ready to repay her kindness in unexpected ways .

She once treated a cancer patient , extending her life for a bit longer .

Though the woman eventually passed away , her grown child returned years later to express gratitude .

Maybe Dante was another case like that , she thought .

It seemed plausible as she waited for his reply .

But Dante shook his head slowly .

No.

No ? Calliope asked , perplexed .

If thats not it , why did you say you helped the Jewell family because of me ? Why does it have to be me to assist them ? Do we have some other connection ? I dont know you , she said , trying to figure it out .

You dont know me , but I know you .

Tears welled up in Dantes eyes , and one slipped down his cheek .

Seeing him cry tugged at Calliopes heartstrings .

Should I know you ? she ventured tentatively .

Dante shook his head again , staring at her for what felt like an eternity before gently patting her on the head .

Thank you for growing up well , he whispered , his touch as soft as a whisper , as if he was afraid to press too hard .

You knew me as a child ? Calliope asked , bewildered .

C Who was this man standing before her ? What was his story ? Should she remember him ? But there was nothing , no memory of him at all .

Cant you just tell me ? Calliope pleaded , her curiosity eating away at her .

Dante shook his head again .

Im not worthy ..

Not worthy .

? What does that even mean ? Calliope was on the verge of frustration , his words shrouded in mystery.

Im sorry , Dante said before retreating into his room , leaving Calliope standing outside , bewildered and more confused than ever .

Meanwhile , Lisette frowned while reviewing the photos and videos she had taken .

What on earth ? Why hadnt they done anything more dramatic ? And now Dante had shut her out? That was not how she had imagined things would go .

But she wasnt too worried .

She bet the intense gaze they shared in the photos would definitely make Silas jealous .

Dantes eyes were red with emotion .

Anyone would think there was something deeper go on .

Lisette had snapped the photos from a clever angle , capturing every detail of their exchange .

She quickly sent them to Silas , then edited them a bit before posting them online from a secondary account .

She smirked , feeling triumphant .

Watch out , Calliope , she muttered .

This time , Ill ruin you .
