A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 478

"Why don't we just take the photos ourselves? I mean, she's not even your biological daughter. Or is it that you all don't want to take a picture with me? You only want photos with Lisette?"

"If that's the case, forget it. It's not like I've been in any of these pictures for the past twenty years anyway."

She gazed down at her plate, picking idly at the mashed potatoes, as if she couldn’t be bothered to continue the conversation.

Her demeanor made the others at the table tense up. Maybe she had a point. They’d taken family photos with Lisette before when Calliope wasn’t around. So, why not take them now without Lisette? After all, Lisette was adopted. She’d been in plenty of pictures already.

"Alright, alright, let's do it!" Monty chimed in, trying to smooth things over. "When do you want to take them? You decide!"

Zelda shot a chilly glance at Calliope, clearly wanting to say something, but Monty nudged her to keep quiet.

"Let's do it after dinner. I'll call a friend over to take them for us," Calliope suggested, looking directly at Monty and the others.

"Uh..."

"What? Can't do it?" Calliope raised an eyebrow. "Fine, then. It's not like we have to. We aren't exactly on speaking terms anyway!"

"No, no, it's fine. We'll do it whenever you say," Monty quickly agreed, trying not to rile her up. After all, with her connections and influence, it was best not to make her an enemy. It's just a family photo, nothing to get worked up about. It's not like it'd cost anyone an arm or a leg.

Horatio and the others nodded in agreement.
