Chapter 158 Mr.
Myers wants to introduce you to the company staff .
You should probably make an appearance , or how will anyone know youre the CEOs wife ? Calliope nodded thoughtfully .
Oh .
She glanced over at Silas , who wore a serious expression .
There was an indescribable feeling in her heart .
When she married Silas , she had prepared herself for all sorts of scenarios .
But she never imagined Silas would be so good to her .
She had thought that , with their marriage being more of an arrangement , he might be indifferent .
She considered that they might part ways once the spotlight faded .
She assumed their relationship would be more like strangers sharing a space , not this comfortable coexistence .
But she hadnt expected him to be so … kind , kind enough that if she ever had to leave , she knew shed find it incredibly hard to say goodbye .
Calliope lowered her eyes .
She knew Silas was only being kind because he was responsible .
He didnt see their arranged marriage as a mere formality .
He genuinely treated her as his wife .
It was touching , but she reminded herself to stay rational .
She knew their relationship couldnt last forever .
He had someone else in his heart , someone he truly cared about from his heart .
If that person ever returned , Calliope knew shed have to step aside .
Thank you , Silas .
Calliope turned to him , her voice earnest .
I know youre a good person , but its okay if you dont do all this .
If one day- What ? Silas frowned .
I mean , if one day we part ways , it might be complicated .
She looked at Silas sternly .
She didnt want to take advantage of his kindness , and she also didnt want to create future complications for him .
As soon as she finished speaking , she saw Silass face darken .
His eyes held a hint of something fierce .
Fagan gulped silently and thought , Gosh , Mrs.
Myers knows how to stir things up .
You dont like it ? You want to separate ? Silass voice was low , tension hanging in the air .
Thats not what I meant .
I mean , if … Calliope was startled by Silass sudden shift in demeanor .
She wasnt sure what shed said wrong .
No , I dont dislike it .
I like it a lot .
Im really happy .
Youre the best husband in the world ! Thank you ! She quickly added , shooting Fagan a look .
Fagan , didnt you need my signature ? Here , let me sign for you ! She grabbed the papers from Fagan and started signing away .
Silas sat on the couch , exuding an aura of authority , watching her quietly .
His eyes were deep and unreadable .
After she finished signing , Fagan left .
The tension in the room lingered , and Calliope felt a bit awkward under Silass intense gaze .
Perhaps she hadnt appreciated his efforts enough .
He had gone to such trouble to set everything up , and shed talked about separation , ruining his mood .
Hey , you didnt eat much at the party .
Hungry ? How about I whip up some mac and cheese ? Im a fantastic cook ! She gave him a playful wink .
Silas looked up , his eyes scanning her face .
Do you still think me as your uncle … because youre still thinking about Gideon ? Calliope watched as Silass face shifted , and she hurried to explain .
No , Im not interested in him anymore .
It is because Im used to … Whenever she saw Silas , shed instinctively see him as Gideons uncle .
Maybe it was from all those times shed chased after Gideon and got used to it .
She always forgot to correct herself .
Im not your uncle .
Im your husband .
Silas glanced up and moved closer , towering over her .
As he leaned in , Calliope swallowed hard , her heart pounding like a drum .
Uncle is what he calls me .
Youre not his woman , so remember it .
Calliope nodded , looking up at Silas with wide , hopeful eyes .
Her bright , deep eyes and pretty face , tinged with a slight blush , made it hard for anyone to resist her .
And Silas didnt say anything more .
Calliope headed to the kitchen and cooked two bowls of spaghetti .
The two of them shared the meal together .
The following day , Calliope was the talk of the town .
The fireworks on her birthday night had wowed everyone in Capitalton .
Someone had recorded and posted the whole event online , saying how unbelievably lucky Callie was .
People guessed who could have pulled off such a grand gesture .
Throwing a birthday celebration as extravagant and luxurious as that was unheard of .
Those fireworks were something else , outshining even the grandest firework displays .
Some were envious , some were jealous , and , of course , there was much speculation about who this Callie could be .
Who in Capitalton is Callie ? Is she the daughter of some elite family or the wife of a big shot to have such an opulent birthday celebration ? There are only a handful of true socialites in Capitalton , and I dont recall any named Callie .
They must have spent millions last night .
Who has that kind of money to burn ? Rumor has it someone had a birthday party on the top floor of the Starlight Hotel .
No matter how rich they are , that banquet hall is impossible for ordinary folks to book .
It must be the birthday celebrated in that ballroom .
Starlight Hotel top floor ? I heard Ms.
Calliope had her birthday there .
Usually , Ms.
Calliope and Ms.
Lisette celebrate together , but this time she did it solo , which is strange .
Ah , now that you mention it , its the eldest daughter of the Jewell family , whos always been a bit of a rebel .
Word is , her family doesnt like her .
If they dont like her , how does she afford such a lavish birthday ? It doesnt add up , right ? The Jewell family isnt exactly top tier .
How could they throw such a massive party for her ? And what about Ms.
Lisettes birthday ? Did everyone forget ? Ms.
