A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 309

"Ulysses, what happened to your foot? It's swollen like a balloon!"

Zelda's eyes widened with shock as she looked at Ulysses. She glanced back at his face, which was usually his pride and joy. Among her kids, Ulysses was the most handsome and the one who had ventured into the entertainment industry. He took great care of himself, especially his face, which he considered his most valuable asset.

But right now, half of his face was so puffy he looked like he'd been in a brawl. Zelda might not have recognized him if the other side of his face hadn't remained untouched.

Her emotions were a whirlwind of concern and anger. "Who did this to you, son? Who had the nerve to mess with you like this? Are they out of their minds?"

Ulysses' expression was a mix of frustration and helplessness. It wasn't just the humiliation of being attacked; it was the inability to retaliate that gnawed at him.

If it were just Calliope, he wouldn't have been worried. But she had a tiger, a wolf, and Silas by her side. There was nothing they could do but swallow their pride and come home.

His resentment toward Calliope was growing. Once, he considered Calliope his little sister, annoying but family nonetheless. He never wished anything bad for her. Now, he wished Silas would leave Calliope and her life become as miserable as she made his.
