A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 270

Yara clapped her hands, and a young assistant approached. She whispered a few words to him, and he quickly left.

A few minutes later, the assistant returned with a long, elegant box. Inside was a delicate brooch, intricately carved to resemble a sprig of holly. And it shimmered a vibrant light under the light.

"This is the brooch Ms. Xander bought for a fortune at that auction, right?"

"Yeah, I heard it's quite a piece with a fascinating story. It's beautiful!"

"Looks like Calliope came prepared, knowing Yara has this brooch!"

"But I doubt Calliope can win. Yara's a poker shark. She's unbeatable at the table!"

"Right, in Capitalton, Yara's the best card player. Her only match is Silas!"

"True, apart from Silas, no one else stands a chance against Yara!"

"Interesting. Does that mean Calliope's going to lose?"

"I wouldn't be so sure. Calliope did surprise us all just now, didn't she?"

"Let's get started already. I'm eager to see how this turns out!"

"Exactly. I can't wait to see who comes out on top!"

Yara caught snippets of the chatter around her. She glanced at Calliope, a faint smile on her lips.

"Let's begin. It’s just a heads-up. I'm quite the card player. I can offer something else if you want to back out now."

"No need," Calliope replied confidently, looking up. "You're good, but I never said I wasn't."

Yara was speechless.

"Whoa, that's some bold talk!"

"Is Calliope that confident she can win?"

"This is getting interesting!"
