A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 714

“I remember he said he’d bring you home for Christmas dinner. He said you’re his apprentice, which makes you family. It only makes sense to bring you home for the holidays. So, why didn’t he take you? Is there anything you want me to tell him?”

Silas looked completely serious. He’d pretty much figured out what was going on. He wasn’t usually the type to meddle in other people’s business, but he knew how close his wife was to Mavis.

And honestly, he didn’t want Calliope to be upset over something like this. He always wanted to see her happy. That’s why he was trying to stand up for Mavis now.

“No, really, it’s fine. I’m not actually his family, and Christmas dinner is for family, right?” Mavis smiled. “Thank you, Mr. Myers, but you don’t have to worry about me.”

Silas nodded, seeing she didn’t want to talk more about it, and dropped the subject.

Calliope jumped in, urging everyone to eat up, and quickly steered the conversation elsewhere.

The meal was cheerful and full of laughter, everyone relaxed and enjoying themselves.

Calliope was the happiest of all; her brothers were getting along with Silas, and she loved the feeling of having everyone together. She felt so lucky to have the people who loved her all around the same table.

Calliope’s phone barely stopped buzzing. Friends, coworkers, even business partners were all calling to wish her happy holidays. Her group chats were blowing up too, with people tagging her left and right.

Calliope picked up her phone, typed a few quick replies, then sent out some generous digital gift cards to each group.
