A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 868

Her face was pale as a sheet.

“Let go of me!” she snapped.

“Calliope, what are your troublemaking friends trying to do here, break my hand?” Zelda shouted, glaring.

Calliope shot a look at Mavis. Mavis instantly released Zelda’s arm.

Zelda, who had been yanking back with all her might, was completely caught off guard. She tumbled backward and landed flat on her butt.

“Ow! You did that on purpose!” Zelda sat on the floor, rubbing her behind, her face twisted in pain.

She turned her anger on Calliope, yelling, “You think this is funny?”

“Oh, give it a rest. Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough already?” Calliope said coolly.

Monty looked like he’d aged twenty years overnight. The stress from the company tanking, the family drama at home—he was at his breaking point.

Not only was the family business on the verge of bankruptcy, but they were drowning in debt. The constant calls from creditors demanding payment, especially those after Lisette, had the whole Jewell family in a panic.

The house was like a tornado had struck. They’d tried to kick Lisette out, only for her to announce she was pregnant with Valerian’s child.

The entire Jewell family was one big, messy disaster.

And now, Ulysses was in the hospital, injured.

As soon as Monty heard the news—and saw online that Ulysses had gotten hurt protecting Calliope—he rushed straight over. He wasn’t here to make trouble for her. In fact, he was hoping she’d help them out.

After all, after so many years of calling each other family, surely there was some bond left, right?

He knew if Calliope helped them out, even just a little, it could turn their lives around.
