Chapter 272 

After asking around for a good while, Uriah found out that Silas didn’t have a clue about what Yara had planned to challenge Calliope

Uriah: [Aren’t you worried?

Silas: [I trust Callie.

Uriah: [But what if she backs out? What if she decides she doesn’t want you anymore? What then?

Silas: [She won’t!

Uriah: [You know what they say, When the going gets tough, even lovebirds fly apart.

Silas: [You can be apart with Mavis if you want, but we’re not going anywhere.

Calliope was quite curious about what challenge Yara had for her. As the final hurdle, it promised to be serious and troublesome. So naturally, her curiosity was piqued

So, what’s the deal this time?Calliope asked

See over there?Yara gestured ahead. I have a pond full of hungry alligators over there.” 

I’ve set up three challenges for you. First, spend fifteen minutes in the alligator pond. Second, stay in that tiger cage over there for twenty minutes. Third, take down those guys!” 

Of course, if you chicken out during the first challenge, you can admit defeat. And the price of admitting defeat is that I won’t return Silas to you.” 

Calliope just stared, speechless

That’s it?she finally said

What did you say?Yara blinked, doubting her ears

The crowd around them was equally stunned. They were about to comment on how ruthless Yara was, making someone stay fifteen minutes in a pond full of hungry alligators. Those creatures looked terrifying. Everything Yara kept was pretty darn intimidating

I said that’s it. Why would I give up? I like animals,” Calliope said with a serious face

Yara was at a loss for words

Those aren’t cute little animals. Those are maneating alligators,Uriah earnestly explained to Calliope, thinking she probably didn’t understand the difference between cute animals and dangerous beasts

They’re still kind of cute.Calliope looked at the alligators whose heads were poking out of the water. It was evident they were hungry, their eyes practically glowing with hunger

Who knows how long it had been since Yara last fed them

Since you say so, I won’t hold back,Yara said. I don’t want any fatalities, so if you want to stop once you’re down there, just shout for me, and I’ll immediately drive the alligators away and get you out.” 

Okay,Calliope replied nonchalantly

She was still wearing an elegant evening gown, and the night breeze was a bit chilly

A guy stepped forward, undressed his jacket, and offered it to Calliope. Ms. Jewell, here, take this.” 

Calliope turned to look at him. He had thick eyebrows, bright eyes, and smooth skina sunny disposition, though she didn’t recognize him

I’m an acquaintance of Mr. Myers,the guy explained

Thanks,Calliope said, accepting the jacket and draping it over her shoulders

Are you sure you are going to try this? It’s too dangerous. Even if you don’t rescue Silas, he could probably get out on his own!” 

Uriah warned Calliope

It’s not the same,Calliope replied. Besides, it won’t be dangerous. I’ll have a friendly chat with them.” 

While Calliope seemed calm, the people around her were decidedly not

This isn’t going to end in disaster, is it?” 

Maybe we should skip this one, Ms. Xander. Find something else to do!” 

This is a bit too extreme!”
