A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 297

Zelda had just been on the receiving end of a verbal lashing from Monty.

She finally managed to mutter, "She’s blocked me, too!"

Monty sighed, exasperated.

"Is this deal that crucial?" Zelda couldn't wrap her head around it. "That Mr. Lopez guy, if he's not interested in working with us, let's move on. Find someone else to partner with!

Doesn't Lisette know a ton of people? Get her to help. She’ll have some connections! And what does Callie even do? She's nothing but a jinx. Look. This deal wouldn't have gone south if it weren't for her!"

Zelda grumbled, annoyed. "She doesn't even deserve to be part of this family. Sometimes, I regret we hadn’t just... well, never mind."

Monty frowned, holding back his words, and finally hung up the phone.

He glanced at Lisette, knowing she had her network of contacts, but none of them could compare to a big fish like Mr. Lopez. The company's situation was dire. Without his cooperation, they might as well shut the doors for good.

No way! They had to get Callie to help.

He looked at Lisette, thought it over, and said, "We need to see Callie."

Lisette was hesitant, not keen on facing Callie, let alone apologizing to her.

Once there, Monty approached the gatekeeper. "I'm here to see my daughter, Mrs. Myers. Could you let us in?"

The gatekeeper looked at Monty skeptically. "Mrs. Myers hasn’t mentioned any family visiting."

"We didn't give her a heads-up, so if you could let her know Monty is here, she'd understand," Monty explained, his tone a mix of patience and desperation.

The gatekeeper gave him a once-over. "Why don’t you call Mrs. Myers yourself? If she’s your daughter, you should be able to reach her and have her inform me, right?"

Monty was speechless. If only it were that simple.
