A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 862

Lisette shivered, her nerves getting the best of her. She didn’t dare say a word—just kept her head down, fidgeting awkwardly.

“Ma’am, are they giving you trouble?”

Silas turned to Calliope, his voice rising with protective energy. “Who’s bothering you? Just say the word, and I’ll make sure they regret it for the rest of their lives.”

Calliope looked up at him, a little surprised. “What are you guys doing here?”

“Like we’d just sit back and do nothing,” Silas replied, his tone softening as he glanced around at Valerian and the others. Then his gaze swept over the crowd—reporters, fans, everyone.

Who didn’t know Silas was the wealthiest man in Capitalton? He was loaded—and completely devoted to Calliope.

Why would Calliope need to scam anyone?

And not just Silas—Calliope’s three brothers were powerhouses in their own right. Julius, a chart-topping pop star with his own record label, was currently the hottest name in the industry. You think he’s strapped for cash?
