A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 449 Valerian watched as Zelda was about to storm out of the house , clearly heading to the company .

He grabbed her arm , trying to stop her .

Mom , Callie is your daughter , after all .

If we think about it , we havent always been fair to her .

Now that Lisettes not around , maybe we should try being a bit nicer to her .

Maybe we need to change a little .

Change ? Zelda cried , furrowing her brow .

What change ? Shes been nothing but bad luck for us .

The companys in trouble , Lisettes in jail , and Horatios legs … its all because of her ! If she wasnt around , things wouldnt have gone downhill like this ! Shes a jinx , bringing disaster to the entire family .

Valerian sighed , realizing this was going to be an uphill battle .

Mom , please , lets just talk about this , he pleaded .

But Zelda was resolute .

I have to go to the office .

If we hand the company over to her , itll be a disaster .

You think shell give back what shes taken ? Shes always been holding grudges against us all these years ! She pushed past Valerian , determined to leave .

He wanted to run after her , but a servant stopped him .

Caught between a rock and a hard place , Valerian quickly dialed Monty , hoping he could intercept Zelda .

But Montys phone went straight to voicemail , no matter how many times he tried .

In the end , Valerian called Horatio .

Can you stop Mom from going to the office ? he asked desperately .

What happened ? Horatios voice crackled through the line , laced with surprise .

Why did you let her head to the company ? If she clashes with Callie there , itll be a spectacle for everyone ! Valerian , why didnt you stop her ? And Callie actually showed some management skills this morning .

She analyzed a lot of things that could really benefit the company .

We need her ! Its not that I didnt try , Valerian said with exasperation .

Mom just wont listen to me .

I got held up by a servant and couldnt catch up to her in time .

We have a board meeting soon , and I cant stop her now , Horatio said , a hint of urgency in his voice .

Ill find some staff to help hold her off .

You keep trying to reach her by phone ! With that , Horatio hung up , his face clouded with worry .

He knew his mother well enough to realize shed stir up trouble at the company .

And today , of all days , the board members and top executives were scheduled to be there .

If Zelda decided to create a scene , it wouldnt look good at all .

Horatio quickly instructed his staff to intercept Zelda while he made his way to the conference hall .

By afternoon , the board members had all arrived , along with the companys top brass .

The conference room was buzzing with people , all speculating about the meetings purpose before Calliope and Monty showed up .

Why did the president call us all here ? I have a bad feeling about this .

Is he planning something drastic ? Are we going bankrupt ? Worry was etched on their face .

Under Montys leadership , the company had been in decline .

He claimed hes got some big announcement .

As I arrived , I heard Calliope showed up at the company today .

Yeah , and Franco from Pearl Tiger Club was seen here too .

Whats he doing at our company ? I came because of the rumors about Franco being here .

As Horatio wheeled into the room , heads turned .
