“Look, there’s a show!”
Calliope’s eyes lit up as she spotted a performance happening right in the middle of the lake. She grabbed Silas’s arm, dragging him along in excitement.
Silas followed her lead, helping her find a perfect spot near the water. The air buzzed with anticipation.
Suddenly, music blared from hidden speakers, and a group of craftsmen waded out onto a floating platform. They started setting up their gear, clearly preparing for something spectacular.
All around, people crowded the lakeshore, raising their phones to capture the moment.
Calliope eagerly joined in, fishing out her phone to record a video for her friends back home.
She was so absorbed in lining up the shot, she didn’t notice when Silas slipped away from her side.
Silas had spotted someone in the crowd: Blythe, and next to her, Oliver. He hadn’t expected to run into them here, and his first instinct was to stay put.
But then Oliver shot him a warning look—a look Silas knew all too well. If he stuck around, he’d just be putting Calliope in the crosshairs.
He glanced at Calliope, who was fully engrossed in the performance, and quietly ducked away into the thinning crowd.
Most people had clustered at the water’s edge, leaving the outer walkways nearly empty.
“Silas! Long time no see. Do you remember me?” Blythe called out softly, stepping out from the shadows.
“Blythe.” Silas’s tone was neutral, but he remembered. They’d been childhood friends. What he couldn’t figure out was why she was with Oliver.
Oliver, he despised. Blythe, on the other hand, he’d once been grateful to. Seeing them together made his skin crawl.
Jealousy pinched at Blythe’s heart. She’d known Silas longer, their connection had always felt strong.
“I told you, I’m married,” Silas repeated, his tone firm. “If my wife saw us like this, she’d be upset. And I love her. So please don’t touch me.”
Blythe’s hand fell away, her cheeks flaming. She shot an uncertain glance at Oliver.
Silas turned to Oliver, his eyes narrowing. “I don’t know why you two are together, but if you’re here to see me, it can’t be good.”
Oliver gave a little scoff. “What’s with the attitude, Silas? I’m your father. Doesn’t matter what I want, you should show a little respect.”
Silas folded his arms, jaw set. He wasn’t about to let Oliver get under his skin. Not tonight. Not while Calliope was waiting for him.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
