A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 8 Sorry for what ? Explain yourself .

What did you do that makes you think you owe me an apology ? Calliope smirked .

Lisette , why do you always feel the need to say sorry? If you really mean it , then get on your knees and apologize ! Is sorry just a word to you ? So , if I just killed you and said sorry , would that fix everything ? Callie … Lisette was taken aback by Calliopes sudden outburst of anger .

Her face turned a bit pale .

Calliope , what on earth is going on with you ? What did Lisette ever do to you to deserve this ? Zelda stepped protectively in front of Lisette .

Why dont you start by explaining what happened at the wedding yesterday ? What happened ? Didnt you see it all ? I married Silas .

Is there a problem with that ? Are you out of your mind ? Zelda said , exasperated .

Do you really think you can handle someone like Silas ? Do you think youre good enough for him ? And what about Gideon ? Werent you head over heels for him ? Why cant you ever get anything right , not even keeping your man ? Her three brothers remained silent , glancing at Calliope with raised eyebrows and a hint of disapproval .

Calliope , tell us what exactly happened yesterday .

We need to understand the situation before we can fix it .

We owe Mr.

Myers a proper thank you , after all , Monty interjected .

And what about Gideon ? Did you do something to upset him again ? You better make it up to him , or who else are you going to marry ? Calliope looked from Zelda to Monty , then back again .

And suddenly , she chuckled openly at them .

Gideon ditching me on our wedding day to run after his old flame is my fault ? Why am I not good enough for Silas ? Am I really that worthless in your eyes ? Do I have to beg them to marry me ? Is my life over if I dont have Gideon ? Zelda frowned , clearly frustrated .

Calliope , why do you always have to be so difficult ? You always let us down ! Callie , Mom and Dad are just looking out for you ! Lisette chimed in .

No need .

Calliopes gaze was cold .

If they really cared , theyd give me back what Grandpa left for me ! She extended her hand toward Lisette .

Where are the earrings , the bracelet , and the brooch Grandpa left me ? Didnt you say you just wanted to borrow them ? Or did you plan on keeping them? Her voice sharpened as she took a step closer .

As an adopted daughter , dont you have any sense of propriety ? My things are not yours .

They were left to me by my grandpa ! Lisettes face paled , then hardened .

… Ill go get them for you ! Calliope , you still havent explained yourself .

Why are you being so harsh on your sister ? Without warning , Zelda swung her hand toward Calliopes face .

But Calliope was faster .

She caught Zeldas wrist midair , gripping it firmly before the slap could land .

You side with an adopted daughter over your own flesh and blood .

Youre no saint yourself ! Calliope abruptly released Zelda , causing her to fall back onto the couch .

1/2 15:55 Chapter 8 Calliope , are you trying to cause a rebellion here ? Zelda shrieked .

Calliope scoffed .

Are you the queen ? Am I staging a coup ? Then she turned to Lisette , eyes flashing with disdain .

Return everything you took from me ! Before Lisette could respond , Calliope was already heading upstairs .

Never mind , Ill get it myself .

I dont trust you not to accidentally misplace everything .
