A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 140

Calliope glanced up slightly.

That was when Verity leaned in, "Callie, come on. Let's go see what's happening!"

Having just finished her game, Calliope let Dahlia and Calista continue and followed Verity outside.

In a corner of the garden, Fleur gave Yvette a good telling-off.

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to! You shouldn't even dream of marrying Gideon. Do you think you're worthy?"

"But since Gideon is so infatuated with you, I can't ruin the relationship between my son and me because of you."

"Yvette, let me warn you. Even if you become Gideon's wife, I won't accept you. I'll keep introducing better women to Gideon."

"So, I hope you know your place. If you're smart, you won't bring up marriage. Of course, you can refuse to back out, but trust me, Gideon won't stick with you till the end. I know my son very well."

"And if you insist on marrying him, you'd better behave after the wedding. Stay out of Gideon's affairs."

...

Fleur unleashed a torrent of words on Yvette.

Verity leaned closer to Calliope, whispering, "Yvette's in for a rough time."

Calliope didn't respond. Fleur had said similar things to her once. But Fleur hadn't dared to go too far with Eamon backing Calliope.

Yvette's future looked bleak. She had no support and no one to stand by her. If Gideon protected her, that would be one thing. But if he didn't, her life could become even harder.

After watching for a moment, Calliope turned away.
