Chapter 403 

Gideon was ignoring his buddies, feeling utterly miserable

Tomorrow was his wedding day with Yvette, but he felt none of the joy expected of a groom. Sure, he was about to become a father, and he didn’t dislike the idea of having a kid. But his feelings for Yvette had long since faded 

Lately, Yvette had been using the fact that she had once saved his life as leverage against him, making him resent her even more

He took swig after swig of his drink, as if trying to drown his sorrows in whiskey

His friends had been joking around, but seeing him like this, they exchanged puzzled glances, unsure of what was going on with him

One of them clapped Gideon on the shoulder. Hey, man, what’s up? You don’t look like you’re about to get 

married.” 

Don’t tell me you’re still hung up on Calliope,another chimed in. I thought you couldn’t stand her always being around back in the day. Isn’t your wedding with her all about Eamon’s shares?” 

Gideon chuckled wryly, swirling the amber liquid in his glass. No, I didn’t realize it back then, but I love her. I was such a fool. I didn’t know who I truly cared about.” 

He sighed, his gaze dropping to the floor. He used to think Yvette was great, that she was special. Now he realized she wasn’t, and he had never really liked herjust a trick of the mind, a result of her manipulations

If he’d only understood his heart sooner, he wouldn’t be contemplating running away on his wedding day

He recalled the image of Calliope running toward Silas. His heart pounded at the memory. Why wasn’t she running toward him? If she had been, he’d have felt like he had the world at his feet

You know,one of the guys said, I heard something interesting. A buddy of mine looked into Calliope and said she owns the Pearl Tiger Club.” 

Seriously?” 

Yeah, and not just that. Apparently, she’s got a whole slew of businesses. She’s wealthier than the Jewell family, almost on par with Silas!” 

No way. She’s so young, and the Jewell family doesn’t even like her. How could she have so much wealth?” 

That’s what my buddy says!” 

Maybe it’s all just rumors.” 

Don’t forget, she’s the Miracle Doctor! If you’ve been keeping up with her reputation, you’d know she’s a big 

deal!” 

How so? Spill the details!” 

I’ve heard a few stories. She hasn’t practiced much in recent years, but when she did, her patients were toptier global bigwigs.” 

Yeah, I remember hearing she treated some big shot, and he gave her a private island as thanks! And not just an islandshe’s been paid millions for her treatments!” 

Rich folks fear death the most. If she can cure them, they’d probably hand over half their fortune!” 

True, being a miracle worker must be lucrative. People’s lives are in her hands!” 

As they marveled at Calliope’s accomplishments, they couldn’t help but glance at Gideon. The more they talked, the more the comparison became apparent

Yvette came from humble beginnings, lacked skills, and wasn’t as striking as Calliope. But Calliope wasn’t just
