A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 846

“Stop blaming Lisette for everything! Lisette never did anything wrong!”

“If you’ve got a problem with us, fine, but leave Lisette out of it. She’s just a girl, she hasn’t done anything, so what’s her crime? You scared her!”

Valerian stood protectively in front of Lisette, glaring at Ulysses with a tight jaw and barely concealed annoyance.

“Uly, you’re not a kid anymore. It’s time you started acting like it. Don’t you know who’s family and who isn’t?”

“Do you even realize how much of the Jewell family’s estate Calliope has her hands on? Do you know how important all that is to us?”

Ulysses just snorted, his face twisted with a mocking smile.

“Oh, so all you see is what Callie inherited? She’s more than capable. Maybe all that money wasn’t even Grandpa’s doing.”

“And even if it was, it was his choice. What’s it got to do with you? Did you ever care how Grandpa was doing? Were you the one looking after him when he was sick?”

“Honestly, Valerian, I think Lisette’s turned your brain to mush. You can’t see anything past her! All you care about is her!”

“And for the sake of a pile of money, you’ve lost all your dignity! Ever wonder why Grandpa never told us Callie wasn’t really our sister? Maybe he kept quiet because he was afraid of someone like you!”

Ulysses shook his head, staring at Valerian in disbelief. He barely recognized his own brother anymore. How could he have changed so much?

“No way,” Valerian replied. “I’ve already arranged everything with the press. We’re going through with it.”

Horatio frowned, shooting a look at Ulysses. “Uly, are you in touch with Callie? Maybe you should talk to her. Set the record straight at the conference.”

Ulysses shook his head. “Callie doesn’t even want to speak to me anymore. Why would she? We made her miserable. We hurt her, over and over again. We don’t deserve to call ourselves her brothers.”
