A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 358 Chapter 358 Calliope glanced at Valerian with a smirk playing on her lips , Mr.

Valerian , thank you for going through all this trouble .

Mustve been quite the hassle to make those reservations ! Each of Calliopes sarcastic remarks seemed to send a shiver through everyone present .

They felt uncomfortable and a little annoyed , but none dared to react openly .

Callie , dont be so formal .

Were family , not employer and employee .

Youre not our maid , so drop the Mr.

and just call me Dad , alright ? Monty was still trying to mend fences and build a better relationship with Calliope .

He walked over to Calliope , intending to give her a friendly pat on the shoulder , a gesture of warmth between a father and daughter .

But just as he approached , Million wedged itself between them .

Suddenly , Million stood on its hind legs .

With one paw , it smacked Montys shoulder while Montys hand was still outstretched .

The result was an odd tableau of man and wolf , awkwardly draped over each other .

Calliope broke into laughter at the sight .

Zelda and others looked on , their expressions a mix of bewilderment and amusement .

Monty tried to extricate himself , but Million was surprisingly strong .

He couldnt shake off the dog and was also wary of being bitten , so he turned to Calliope for help .

Calliope gave Monty a fleeting glance , Looks like Millions taken quite a liking to you ! Monty sighed internally .

What was he supposed to do with a wolfs affection ? With Million practically dragging him , Monty stumbled towards the clubs entrance .

The staff , witnessing the spectacle of a man and wolf buddying up , were wide eyed with astonishment .

Sir , may I see your membership card ? A staff member asked , barely suppressing a laugh .

Monty awkwardly fumbled for his card , but Million pressed even harder , nearly making him hunch over .

Sir , your reservation is confirmed .

Weve got a private room ready for you .

Right this way ! The staff originally intended to greet Calliope , but she gave them a quick wink , signaling them to stay quiet .

So , maintaining a professional demeanor , they led Monty and Million to the private room , with Calliope following close behind .

Horatio and the others trailed after them .

Zelda occasionally shot daggers at Calliope with her eyes , itching to say something snarky but holding back because Monty had advised her to keep her cool and be nicer .

Once they all settled into the private room , Calliope immediately took charge of ordering food .

Monty and the others barely got a word in as Calliope rattled off her choices like she knew the menu by heart , without even glancing at it .

Isnt that a bit much ? Monty asked , finally able to breathe now that Million had hopped off him .

Not at all .

I actually think we could have a bit more , Calliope replied earnestly , wearing a cheeky grin .

Or do you think Im not worthy of a feast ? Monty hesitated , No , no , youre definitely worthy ! Horatio and Valerian exchanged glances , while Zelda rolled her eyes dramatically .

Calliope quipped , Zelda , are you trying to evolve into something with all that eye rolling ? Zelda spluttered , Huh !!! Alright , thats enough for now .

Lets start with these , Monty hurriedly instructed the waiter , eager to move things along .
