A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 112

Valerian watched Calliope with hopeful eyes.

Calliope gently brushed his hand away, her beautiful face calm and distant. "What’s the point now? Does she need my forgiveness?"

Valerian furrowed his brow, sensing the disappointment in her gaze.

When he first revealed the truth, Calliope had felt a flicker of hope. But that hope quickly faded when she realized he didn’t think he was in the wrong. He was only here to ask her to forgive Lisette.

Lisette was his precious little sister. And whatever she did wrong was never really her fault.

Calliope had saved his life. And now, knowing the truth, Valerian thought an apology was all it took for her to forgive Lisette.

Calliope let out a small, bitter laugh. "Don't worry, even if I don't forgive her, what can I do with you all protecting her?"

Without another glance, she walked away.

Valerian wanted to follow, but Silas gave a subtle nod to Fagan.

Fagan immediately stepped in to block Valerian. "Mrs. Myers doesn't wish to be disturbed. Mr. Jewell, please, go home."

Valerian's brow creased deeper, a gnawing unease growing as he watched Calliope's retreating figure. Her soft laugh echoed in his mind, unsettling him.

He knew she was hurt. He knew he was wrong. But he also thought that maybe Lisette didn’t mean any harm.

Lisette was always so innocent. She couldn’t have intentionally pretended to be Callie. There must have been a reason.

Valerian wanted to clear up the misunderstanding between Calliope and Lisette, but Calliope refused to listen.
