A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 464

Calliope looked at Fleur, letting out a soft chuckle. "I doubt you can afford my fee."

Fleur froze, staring at Calliope as if she couldn't believe her ears.

"The Miracle Doctor's fees aren't exactly a secret," Calliope continued. "You can ask around if you like. Besides, I don't really enjoy getting involved in complicated situations."

Even if she managed to help Yvette conceive, there was still a chance of miscarriage. And even if the pregnancy went full term, the baby's health wasn't guaranteed. If she agreed to help and something went wrong, Fleur and Yvette would surely find a way to blame her.

Calliope had no interest in thankless tasks.

"You could always consult other renowned doctors," she said, standing up to leave.

But Fleur grabbed her sleeve immediately. "Callie, please. I know I haven't treated you well in the past, and you have every right to be upset. But I've changed, and I truly regret it.

If Yvette can't have a baby, how am I supposed to have a grandchild? I'll pay you whatever you want! Just please, help us! I've already asked other doctors. You're the Miracle Doctor; you're the best there is! If nobody else can do it, I know you can."

Fleur looked at Calliope earnestly, her face aged even more than Calliope remembered. Yvette and Gideon had only been married a short while, yet Fleur looked as if she'd been worn down over the years.

It seemed karma had finally come around for her. Calliope remembered Fleur's past arrogance, but now she seemed genuinely remorseful.

Calliope said nothing, while Fleur gritted her teeth and produced a card. "There's a hundred thousand here. Not a small amount, right?"

Calliope gave Fleur a long look. "Are you sure about this?"

"Absolutely," Fleur replied.

"If something goes wrong, you won’t come back blaming me?" Calliope asked again.

"No matter what happens, I won't hold you responsible!" Fleur assured her. "If anything goes wrong, it'll be that fool's fault!"

Calliope sighed. "I can help her get her health back on track, but she must be careful herself. During her recovery, she really needs to take care of herself."
