Chapter 384 

He’d have the support of his father in law’s family their backing and assistance, but not just Yvetters family dragging him down

Calliope smiled but said nothing the glanced at Fleur, then at Gideon, honestly grateful for their opposition. Without them, she wouldn’t have had the chance to meet Silas She wouldn’t have mamed him or discovered such a wonderful person existed 

The group sat in the living room for a while, chatting and taking care of a few things. Before they knew it, the evening had come 

After dinner everyone was ready to head home 

Calliope was about to leave when she realized her car was acting up, refusing to start 

Gideon’s car was parked nearby, and he noticed her predicament. He got out and walked over to her 

Car trouble?he asked 

Calliope nodded, stepping out of the car and popping open the hood 

Let me take a look, Gideon offered, eager to show off his skills

Before Calliope could respond, Gideon had already rudged her aside, diving into examining her car 

Calliope stood there quietly, glancing over at the passenger seat of Gideon’s car where Yvette sat, looking rather unhappy 

Gideon fiddled around under the hood, poking here and there without much idea of what he was doing. He certainly looked the part, though, as if he knew exactly what was going on 

Any luck figuring it out? Calliope asked after a while

It’s tricky,” Gideon replied, scratching his head. “I think we’ll need a pro to come and fix this. Leave your car here, and I’ll get someone to sort it out. You can ride with me. I’ take you home.” 

He was all too eager to impress

Calliope just stared at him, realizing how clueless he was. She wondered how she ever thought she was in love with him. It was like she’d been under a spell 

Mind stepping aside?” Calliope asked 

Gideon obliged, stepping back

Callie, it’s really complicated. Don’t bother, he insisted. I’ll call someone to fix it.” 

Calliope gave him a cold, measured look, then leaned under the hood, made a few quick adjustments, and slammed it shut

You won’t get it running like that,Gideon warned, frowning. I checked it myself. It needs a professional!” 

Ignoring him, Calliope dusted off her hands, got into the driver’s seat, and buckled up

Callie, even if you’re mad at me, you don’t have to do this!Gideon called out, exasperated. I told you, it’s not going to start!” 

Calliope shot him a look, then turned the key. The next second, engine roared to life

Move,Calliope said curtly

Gideon’s face was a mix of shock and disbelief. He stood there as Calliope drove off, her car disappearing into the night with a slick swerve
