Chapter 106 Silas watched , his emotions a tangled mess , as his wife did the unthinkable she saved his arch nemesis .
Mr.
Myers , whats going on with Mrs.
Myers ? Fagan couldnt hide his surprise .
Everyone knew Silas and Nigel were sworn enemies , and seeing Calliope save Nigel stirred up a cocktail of emotions .
Silas stood silently , leaving Fagan too wary to probe further .
They both watched as the chaos of the explosion subsided .
And the ambulance arrived , carrying Calliope and Nigel off together .
Valerian was in a daze .
He had witnessed Calliopes bravery firsthand , how she had pulled Nigel from the wreckage .
It had triggered a throbbing ache in his head a memory , just out of reach .
Three years ago , he had been in a similar situation .
Hed blacked out , remembering only the sensation of someone soft yet powerful pulling him to safety .
Those faint memories overlapped with the scene before him .
Calliope had once told him that she saved his life , but he had never believed her .
He credited his survival to Lisette , the first face he saw upon waking .
Lisette had been crying , and Calliope was nowhere to be seen , who was abroad , caught up in some drama with Gideon .
Whenever Calliope mentioned saving him , hed dismiss her claims , convinced she couldnt have been his savior .
But now , as the pieces clicked into place , a chilling thought surfaced .
Valerian felt a strange clarity , like a veil had lifted .
The accident he remembered his car was wrecked , and someone had tried to save him but couldnt .
He recalled Calliopes voice , urgent and frantic , calling his name .
He had dismissed it as a hallucination , convinced she was overseas .
Now , the scene from moments ago mirrored that buried memory so perfectly .
Valerians heart pounded as he realized the truth .
Had he been wrong all these years , wrongfully accusing Calliope of lying ? Calliope had tried to explain , but he had always shut her down , accusing her of stealing credit for something so sacred .
He had called her shameless , and over time , her eyes had grown cold with resignation .
Valerian , are you okay ? Lisettes voice snapped him back .

She clung to his arm , her face a mask of worry .
I was so scared something happened to you ! Im fine , Lisette , Valerian replied , though his mind was elsewhere .
He needed to know .
Lisette , do you remember what happened when I had my accident ? Lisette hesitated , caught off guard .
I … I dont remember much .
It was terrifying .
I just wanted you to survive .
I wouldve done anything to keep you alive , even if it meant getting hurt myself !
