A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 83 Lisette , my legs … theyre going to be okay , right ? In the restaurant , Horatio couldnt quite shake off his unease .

Hed spent too many years confined to a wheelchair , years hed rather not recall hed been overlooked , pushed aside , and sometimes outright bullied .

It was Lisette who had turned his life around , who had given him the strength to stand on his own two feet again .

Despite the odd sensations in his legs , he refused to believe Calliopes warnings .

It was Lisette who healed him , and he trusted her implicitly .

Lisette furrowed her brows , pondering over Calliopes words .

Calliope wasnt one to make baseless claims , which meant there could be some truth to her concerns about Horatios legs .

But how could she herself really know what was going on with Horatios legs ? The truth was , Lisette wasnt a doctor , nor could she treat any patient .

She hadnt actually healed Horatio ; shed just taken credit for it .

His legs cant be in trouble , right ? Valerian glanced at Lisette .

Calliope must be talking nonsense .

Yeah .

Dont worry , Horatio .

Your legs are fine .

And even if something did happen , youve got me here .

No need to fret ! Lisette reassured Horatio .

For now , Horatio could walk .

If things changed , shed cross that bridge when she came to it .

She knew Horatio and the others trusted her without question.

If his legs ever did give out , shed simply claim she couldnt fix it and find a real doctor to help .

Her mind was spinning with plans as she considered Calliopes companions , Quentin and Norton .

It irked her that even though shed managed to win Horatio and the others over , Calliope still had people by her side people who were not only more handsome but seemed more capable too .

She cast a quick glance at Horatio and Valerian and felt a twinge of dissatisfaction .

But if she could win Horatio and Valerian over , why couldnt she do the same with Quentin and the rest ? Lisettes lips curled into a subtle smirk .

Her own family didnt care for her , so why would these newfound allies be any different ? So it wouldnt take much to sow discord among them .

It irked her to see Calliope living a better life , and she wouldnt rest until she saw her rivals downfall .

And as for that infuriating Silas , who seemed blind to her charms , she was determined to win him back .

Horatio nodded , comforted by Lisettes reassurances .

Calliope was often off the mark ; hed rather place his faith in Lisette .

If she said everything was fine , then it must be .

Calliope was escorted back to the Myers Manor by Quentin .

Under the night sky , Quentin stood at the manors entrance , observing Calliope under the dim light of a streetlamp .

In the soft light , it seemed as if Calliopes head was emitting a gentle glow .

He reached out and tenderly ruffled Calliopes hair while murmuring a few parting reminders , which Calliope accepted with a nod .

When he finished , she turned and headed into the manor .

Quentin watched her jog inside , his lips curling into a small smile .

She was still the same as ever .

Only when Calliope disappeared from view did Quentin finally turn to leave .

As soon as Calliope arrived home , she spotted Silas sitting in the living room .

His presence was overwhelming 14:57 Chapter 83 and intimidating .

The moment he glanced up at her , her heart involuntarily skipped a beat .

Why are you back so late ? Silas asked .

I had dinner out and had a few things to wrap up , Calliope explained .

She had informed Silas of her plans , yet he seemed to need reassurance .

Who brought you back ? Silass brows knitted slightly , clearly aware that Quentin had been the one to escort her home .
