A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 914

Crispin slipped over to Portia and Calliope, lowering his voice, “What’s going on? How did you two end up in here?”

“Relax, Crispin. Everyone here is a friend of Callie’s,” Portia said, beaming. “And now they’re my friends, too!”

“Seriously?” Crispin stared at her in disbelief.

Just then, a woman beside them clinked her glass with Portia’s. “Portia, how about a duet?”

Crispin’s eyes went wide. That was the legendary, notoriously hard-to-please actress—the one with the impossible reputation!

And here she was, inviting Portia to sing with her?

“One sec!” Portia laughed. “Let me talk to my brother first, okay?”

“Sure, I’ll wait!” the actress called back.

Crispin was stunned. They looked like long-lost friends.

That actress wasn’t just famously difficult—her background was as powerful as it was mysterious, with whispers of military ties.

People in business, like them, usually had zero chance of getting in her orbit. But Portia seemed to have charmed her effortlessly.

“Crispin, Nancy’s open to working with you,” Calliope said quietly. “Go have a private chat with her. If things work out, great. If not, let’s keep it amicable.”

“Mr. Sutton, right?” Nancy smiled, her tone warm. “How about we step outside? My agent’s waiting.”

“Um…now?” Crispin was still reeling.

His family had chased a partnership with Nancy for ages—her image was perfect for their brand—but they’d never even gotten through the door.

Yet Portia, with Calliope’s help, had somehow pulled it off.
