A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 816
Norton let out a short laugh. “Heard from Callie that Mavis likes you, but you don’t like her, right?”
“If you’re not into her, you shouldn’t string her along. If you’re not interested, I am. I want to ask her out. What’s wrong with that?”
“Mr. Stewart, you’re her mentor, aren’t you supposed to have some decency? Mavis isn’t getting any younger. Even if she doesn’t want to settle down and have a bunch of kids, is it so wrong for her to date someone?”
“What, are you planning to keep her around forever, just calling her your apprentice, even after you get married to someone else?”
“You get your shot at happiness. Doesn’t Mavis deserve the same?”
Norton knew exactly how to push buttons, and every word was getting under Uriah’s skin.
Uriah’s face grew darker with each passing second, his glare sharp as a knife turned on Norton.
“Mr. Stewart, I’ll give you time to talk to Mavis if you want. But you can’t stop me from telling her how I feel. You won’t stop me. If I don’t ask her out today, I’ll do it tomorrow, or the day after. I’ve got all the time in the world.”
With that, Norton spun on his heel and strode away, leaving Uriah with a bombshell he had no idea when would go off, but he knew it was there, ticking away, all the same.
Uriah stood outside, looking as if he’d just bitten into a lemon.
As soon as Norton walked back in, Portia sidled up to him, lowering her voice. “Well? Did you get to him?”
“I think so,” Norton grinned. “Let’s give them some privacy. Maybe they’ll actually talk this time.”
Mavis, on the other hand, was panicking.
“Callie… What am I supposed to do if you all leave?”
Once everyone else had left, Uriah came back inside. Mavis was on the couch, alone.
They’d sat like this a hundred times before, but tonight, Uriah looked uncomfortable, almost awkward as he took the seat across from her, sneaking glances her way.
“If you’ve got something to say, just say it,” Mavis said quietly, her face calm.
“Were you cozying up to Norton just to get a rise out of me?” Uriah’s gaze locked onto hers, intense.
Mavis blinked, caught off guard, but then she realized, Uriah was too smart not to figure it out.
She dropped her eyes and admitted, “You’re right. I wanted to see if you’d react. That’s why I let Norton get close.”

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......
