A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 340

Calliope's gaze settled on Lisette, who turned as pale as a ghost. Could Calliope really clear up those old rumors?

No way!

What evidence could she possibly have? How could she prove anything after all these years?

"Back then, the wildest rumor was probably that I got expelled, right?" Calliope began, her voice calm and measured. "Supposedly, I was kicked out for doing all sorts of terrible things?"

"Let me clarify," she continued, a small smile playing on her lips. "I wasn't expelled, nor did I drop out. I just transferred to another school. Doesn't anyone remember I disappeared for a while? I went abroad and attended one of the world's top universities."

As soon as she said this, Valerian's brows furrowed in skepticism. "Calliope, can you be serious for a moment?"

"Yeah, you went abroad," he retorted, "but weren't you expelled? We all know you didn't go to college since you hadn't even finished high school! And now you're claiming you went to a top university? Who's gonna buy that?"

"I almost believed for a second she did go to some elite school!"

"Even her family's calling her bluff, what's left for her to say?"

"This is too much, honestly."
