A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 568

"I never really liked any of this food before, you know. I only pretended to because everyone kept saying I did. Honestly, it’s like the real person who enjoys this stuff is someone else entirely."

Calliope shot a glance at Lisette.

Lisette had been happily digging into her breakfast until she heard Calliope. She straightened up, looking genuinely puzzled.

"Wait, you mean you didn’t actually like these breakfasts?" Lisette blurted, shaking her head. "I mean, I really do love waffles and bacon, but I had no idea you felt pressured to like them too!"

She looked a little shocked. With Calliope here, the whole Jewell family felt like a minefield to Lisette. It used to just be her, but now Silas was involved too, and that made everything even more complicated.

Silas seemed to be deliberately stirring the pot.

"Come on, it’s just breakfast. Why be so picky? Scrambled eggs are scrambled eggs, you know?" Zelda grumbled. "It’s not like eating breakfast from Essence Delight will make you immortal or something."

Zelda’s patience snapped. "Lisette eats anything you put in front of her. How come you’re always so fussy, Callie?"

Calliope looked up at Zelda, her voice calm but steady. "I don’t think I’m that fussy, am I? I’ve eaten the same things as everyone else these past few days, haven’t I?"

Zelda, who always had a soft spot for Lisette, frowned.
