A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 39

Valerian wanted to make his way over to Calliope, but she and Norton were already surrounded by a lively crowd.

Norton had snagged first place and handed his prize right over to Calliope. Her beautiful face lit up with a smile that radiated pure happiness.

"Thanks, Norton!"

"Hey, since my brother gifted me his prize, it's my treat!"

Calliope's voice rang out with a cheerful tone, her eyes sparkling with joy. When she laughed, it was as if she brought color to the world around her. Even in the midst of a crowd, she stood out.

Norton's friends were all singing Calliope's praises, and even those who didn't know her well were caught up in her infectious spirit.

"Today we celebrate my brother's big win. Everyone, if you’re interested, let’s have late-night snacks at Silver Spoon! Eat as much as you want, it's all on me!"

"You're the best, Calliope!"

"Thanks a ton! We won't hold back then!"

"Let's hit the road for some free midnight snacks!"

...

A boisterous group headed off to Silver Spoon.

Valerian had wanted to stop Calliope from running off with such a large crowd, but there were just too many people, and he didn't want to make a scene.

He stood there, a shadow crossing his face, feeling a bit left out.

"Wait, isn't that your sister?"
