A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 809

In the end, Ulysses still gave the painting to Calliope.

When Calliope walked away carrying the painting, Ulysses let out a big sigh of relief. He was honestly happy, at least she'd accepted his gift.

He knew he owed her so much from the past. If she was willing to accept what he gave, he'd do his best to make things right.

Horatio glanced at Ulysses and asked, “You got enough cash for that?Did you have to borrow money? How much are you short? I can spot you.”

Horatio hadn’t bid on anything himself, but he also felt like he owed Calliope something.

The difference was, he was a lot more level-headed than Ulysses. He knew he didn’t have enough to cover the painting anyway. It probably cost more than everything he owned.

Ulysses just looked at him and shook his head.

“It’s a gift from me to Callie. I’ll pay for it myself.”

He wanted to make amends on his own; he didn’t want help from anyone else.

Seeing Ulysses so determined, Horatio let it drop.

Meanwhile, Zelda was fuming. She knew how much that painting was worth. She’d been at the auction herself.

She and Monty had been sitting toward the back, so when Ulysses started bidding, there was nothing they could do to stop him.

Monty honestly couldn’t believe it. He hadn’t planned on buying anything at the auction, let alone something so expensive.

And the kicker? Ulysses hadn’t bought it for himself. He’d bought it for Calliope.
