Chapter 18 

She wanted to ask him why he was so nice to her, but then she thought, surely he couldn’t actually like her 

He must just have a grateful heart, remembering the favor she did for him

Callie, Adah told you where the garage is, right? All the car keys are here, so pick whichever one you like. If you’re driving yourself, be careful. It’s best to take Damien with you, he’ll look out for you. If you don’t feel like driving, you can always have Damien or the others take you.” 

The way he said Calliesent a shiver down Calliope’s spine. He spoke with the ease of a man addressing his beloved wife- so patient, so natural. It was such a stark contrast to Gideon

Calliope had plans to meet up with Mavis and the girls for some shopping, so Silas offered to drop her off

Their car had barely left the Myers Manor when Gideon suddenly rushed into the road, blocking their path

Carl, the driver, slammed on the brakes. The car jolted to a stop, nearly sending Calliope forwarduntil Silas caught her, holding her steady against him

Mr. Myers, sorry, there’s someone in front!” 

Outside, looking utterly worn out, Gideon stood in front of the car, his breathing uneven, eyes locked on them

Calliope looked up and saw him too

Gideon quickly strode to the side door and knocked on the window

Silas didn’t roll it down immediately. Instead, he first checked if Calliope was alright

I’m fine,” Calliope said

At dawn, he had come straight to the Myers Manor, waiting for hours just to intercept Silas

But he hadn’t expected this- Calliope in Silas’s car, in Silas’s arms

The woman who had chased after him for years, who had promised to marry him. and now, she was with his uncle

She must be out of her mind

Calliope, what are you doing in my uncle’s car?Gideon’s voice was tinged with agitation

Call her Aunt,Silas’s eyes deepened. Callie is now your aunt.” 

Aunt?Gideon’s voice wavered, his expression twisting in disbelief. Uncle, she’s Calliope! She’s my fiancée!” 

Fiancée? Not anymore. She’s my wife now. We’re legally married. Got the certificate and everything. Our wedding photos turned out beautifully, want to see them? I can send you a few. And from now on, show some respect to your aunt.” 

Silas’s voice was icy

Calliope remained silent, her expression unreadable as she met Gideon’s gaze with cool detachment

No way. Uncle, did she seduce you? How could you possibly be interested in her? Uncle, did Grandpa force you

into this? This is just a temporary arrangement, right?”
