A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 479 Calliope didnt hold back at all .

She walked into Montys place and started picking things off the shelves like a kid in a candy store .

Ill take this one , and this one , oh and definitely this one too ! Monty just stood there , his jaw practically on the floor .

He tried to keep it together , but watching Calliope go on a spree through his treasured collection was like watching someone eat the last slice of his favorite pizza right in front of him .

Callie , you know , thats a lot to carry all at once .

Why not leave some here ? Theyre all yours anyway , you can come back for them whenever you want .

No need to rush , right ? Really ? Calliope glanced at Monty , her eyebrow raised .

Monty nodded so fast he almost gave himself whiplash .

Absolutely ! Im serious , all yours ! But Calliope just chuckled , I dont believe you .

And with that , she grabbed a few more things .

Monty watched helplessly as his cherished items dwindled down to a sad looking half empty shelf .

Calliope definitely had a knack for picking out the best stuff , leaving behind only the items Monty could barely muster any affection for .

That should do it , Calliope said , dusting off her hands .

For now .

For now ? Montys eyes widened in horror .

Was she planning a return trip ? Why, is that a problem ? Calliope shot him a look .

I can just take everything now if youd like .

No , no ! Thats fine ! Monty quickly interjected , stepping in front of what remained .

This is plenty for now .

We can sort out the rest next time ! Hey , do you want this stuff in your room , or are you taking it with you ? Of course , Im taking it with me .

If I leave it here , itll be Lisettes the moment she gets back! Calliope declared , as if this was the most obvious thing in the world .

She turned to Valerian .

Mr.

Valerian , would you mind helping me pack these up ? Valerian wasnt thrilled with the Mr.

Valerian title , but he obliged , gathering packing materials to help Calliope wrap up her loot .

Ulysses pitched in to help , while Calliope stood by , directing the operation like a maestro conducting an orchestra .

Finally , everything was packed up and ready to go .

Zelda stood by the door , eyeing Calliope with a look that could curdle milk , like she was witnessing a vampire in the middle of a blood drive .

Calliope didnt pay her any mind .

She was content , her heart light as a feather , ready to head back hom bandit with a successful heist under her belt .

Monty and the others watched her go , their emotions a tangle of confusion and reluctant acceptance .

They knew they relied on her , and despite everything , there was a part of them that felt a little guilty .

Oh , by the way , Ill be back for dinner sometime soon ! Todays food was great , so dont be surprised if I start showing up more often ! Calliope called out as she reached the door , her voice warm and full of genuine excitement .

Monty nearly choked on air .

Zelda just blinked , speechless .

Horatio and the others looked at each other in disbelief .

Calliope and the rest of them hadnt exactly been on the best terms lately , and her sudden declaration of e a Chapter 4/9 wanting to return often was the last thing they expected .

Even though shed made off with a small treasure trove and rekindled some old grievances , she was still their sister .

Her saying she wanted to come back more often , well , it made them feel a bit warmer inside .

Horatio smiled , Yeah , you should come by more .

And bring Mr.

Myers along too , hes family now .

Calliope nodded, her grin as bright as a summer afternoon.

You bet, Ill be around a lot more.

I can tell you all missed me like crazy
