A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 205

Calliope stared at the woman in disbelief. She had anticipated that she might have some criticisms but hadn’t expected such outlandish fabrications.

She glanced over at Silas for a moment.

She wasn't quite sure who this woman was, but she seemed to be someone of importance, probably a well-connected young lady, especially since she was working closely with Silas. Anyone in his inner circle had to have some pull.

Silas strode over to them, his long legs carrying an air of authority. He stopped beside the woman, his presence commanding.

Fagan was already sweating bullets for her.

Silas looked down at her, his voice calm but firm, “Kelda, did she bully you? How did she do that?”

Kelda’s eyes lit up with feigned innocence. “Silas, she tried to spill coffee on me. It was hot, and she wanted to burn me!”

“Did you get burned?” Silas asked, his voice low and even.

“No, because I dodged quickly. But if I hadn’t, I would have been!”

Kelda puffed up indignantly, “It’s unfair! Since she’s your wife, and I like you, Silas, I’d be nice to her. I even brought her fruit and coffee, but she treated me like this! Silas, you know my father would be furious if I got hurt. You said you’d take care of me, didn’t you?”

“No burns, huh? That’s a shame.” Silas remarked with a chilly detachment.
