Chapter 376
Yvette gritted her teeth, casting a sideways glance toward Calliope
Wer on warth was she doing here? Seeing Calliope always put Yvette in a foul mood. She couldn’t stand her
And then there was Gedeon Every time he laid eyes on Calliope, that uneasy feeling crept up on Yvette, like a storm cloud rolling in. She always had this nagging suspicion that Gideon still had feelings for Caffing
“Odeon Calliope is your uncle’s wife Yvette’s right Sensing the tension in the air, Fleur tried to keep things under control
Her son seemed more focused on Calliope than Yvette, which wouldn’t do. The wedding had to go off without a hitch this time. If anything went wrong, their family would be the laughingstock of the entire towery
Fleur didn’t particularly like Yvette, but they had sent out the wedding invitations. Any scandal now would only fuel the gossip mill about Gideon’s supposed issues.
“Didn’t you hear ther Calliope said, looking straight at Gideon with a smirk. “Show some respect!”
“Aunt Calle Gideon ground out, his jaw clenched tight, as if forcing those words was like pulling teeth.
“That’s it,” Calliope chuckled, playing the part of the elder with ease. “Now, how are the wedding plans coming along?”
“We’ve got the dress sorted and the photos done. Everything’s going smoothly, Yvette said while raising her hand triumphantly. “Gideon had our rings custom–made. I adore
Calliope glanced at Yvette, her voice dripping with nonchalance. “I wasn’t asking about the rings. How about the guest list and the officiant? Is everything else on track?” Then she gave Yvette a knowing smile. “Remember, we had a chat about this before. During the wedding, you need to apologize and explain why my wedding got called off.” Yvette’s face went pale. The thought of Calliope bringing up that fiasco at her wedding was mortifying. It would mean admitting she was the reason for the cancellation She’d hoped Calliope had forgotten, but obviously not.
That must be deliberate Calliope must still have feelings for Gideon to be doing this, right?
Fleur glared at Yvette and beckoned her over. “Come here. I have something to discuss with you.”
Yvette hesitated, feeling Fleur’s scrutinizing gaze on her. She glanced at Gideon for support, but his eyes were locked on Calliope, oblivious to her silent plea.
“Are you waiting for an invitation? Fleur called back, imitation evident in her voice.
“No, Fleur, Yvette stammered, hurrying after her
Gideon stepped closer to Calliope, his voice softening “Aunt Callie, can we talk in private? There’s something I need to say.”
“Sorry. Whatever you need to say, you can say it here. My husband, your Uncle, gets jealous easily!” Calliope declared, popping an orange slice into her mouth without looking up.
“But Uncle Silas is not even here!” Gideon protested, his brow furrowing
“It doesn’t matter whether he’s here. He doesn’t like me talking to you, so I’d rather not,” Calliope said serenely. “Please keep your distance. I don’t want my husband getting jealous!
