Chapter 152 Gideon didnt realize that Yvette had slipped into the banquet hall entrance at some point , unnoticed amidst the laughter and clinking glasses .
Meanwhile , her eyes fell on him with a smoldering intensity .
Following Gideons line of sight , Yvettes gaze landed on Calliope .
Surrounded by a crowd , she shone like a natural born princess .
Even though the Jewell family treated her poorly , and Lisette had snatched away every ounce of affection , Calliope still dazzled like a princess people couldnt help but admire and envy .
The effortless grace that Calliope exuded was something Yvette envied and despised .
She loathed this version of Calliope , wishing to snatch away everything she had and destroy her .
Every glance at Calliope was a painful reminder of Yvettes past , crawling out from a mire of filth , while Calliope was born into royalty .
Why did she deserve this happiness ? Despite being disliked by many , Calliope had the world at her feet .
Why was she so easily able to win over Gideon ? Why did Eamon favor her , willing to offer shares to help her marry Gideon ? And when her marriage to Gideon fell through , why could she move on to someone even more influential like Silas ? On Yvettes birthday , she sat alone in her dingy , ramshackle apartment .
Only when she pleaded for attention did Gideon take her out for a meal , a meager celebration .
But Calliope ? Even if Gideon ignored her birthday , she had a flock of well wishers .
She mingled effortlessly with the elite , accepting their gifts with poise .
She appeared to glide through life without worry , as if she belonged to their world .
Yvette , on the other hand , carried an innate sense of inferiority , worlds apart from them .

She struggled to even exchange pleasantries , and to them , she was insignificant .
Yvettes jealousy of Calliope was intense .
She despised her for being so beautiful , wealthy , and adored without any effort .
Why did she deserve it all ? Seething with envy , Yvette clenched her fists , nails biting into her palms .
She vowed to herself that shed bring Calliope down one day .
Because Calliope was a threat , a constant reminder that Yvette didnt belong in this world .
Taking a deep breath , Yvette pulled out her phone and , with narrowed eyes , recorded a video of the banquet hall .
She sent it to Lisette , a slight smile playing on her lips .
Lisette would be furious upon seeing it .
How could she allow Calliope to have a better life ? Like Yvette , Lisette despised Calliope for stirring up feelings of inadequacy within them .
Calliope seemed born to be a princess , even in rags , while they were born commoners , a joke even in royal garb .
After sending the message , Yvette noticed Gideon had spotted her .
She fought the urge to storm in and confront him .
With a look of desolation , tears in her eyes , she turned and walked away .
Gideon paused for a moment , then quickly rushed after her .
