Chapter 18 She wanted to ask him why he was so nice to her , but then she thought , surely he couldnt actually like her He must just have a grateful heart , remembering the favor she did for him .
Callie , Adah told you where the garage is , right ? All the car keys are here , so pick whichever one you like .
If youre driving yourself , be careful .
Its best to take Damien with you , hell look out for you .
If you dont feel like driving , you can always have Damien or the others take you .
The way he said Callie sent a shiver down Calliopes spine .
He spoke with the ease of a man addressing his beloved wife- so patient , so natural .
It was such a stark contrast to Gideon .
Calliope had plans to meet up with Mavis and the girls for some shopping , so Silas offered to drop her off .
Their car had barely left the Myers Manor when Gideon suddenly rushed into the road , blocking their path .
Carl , the driver , slammed on the brakes .
The car jolted to a stop , nearly sending Calliope forward until Silas caught her , holding her steady against him .
Mr.
Myers , sorry , theres someone in front ! Outside , looking utterly worn out , Gideon stood in front of the car , his breathing uneven , eyes locked on them .
Calliope looked up and saw him too .
Gideon quickly strode to the side door and knocked on the window .
Silas didnt roll it down immediately .
Instead , he first checked if Calliope was alright .

Im fine , Calliope said .
Only then did Silas release Calliope and lower the window , his eyes turning cold as he met Gideons .
Are you out of your mind ? Uncle … Gideons voice was tight with frustration .
He had planned to go to the company to find Silas , but the whole night had been unbearable .
Thoughts of Calliope and his lost shares tormented him , making sleep impossible .
At dawn , he had come straight to the Myers Manor , waiting for hours just to intercept Silas .
But he hadnt expected this- Calliope in Silass car , in Silass arms ! The woman who had chased after him for years , who had promised to marry him .
and now , she was with his uncle ? She must be out of her mind ! Calliope , what are you doing in my uncles car ? Gideons voice was tinged with agitation .
Call her Aunt , Silass eyes deepened .
Callie is now your aunt .
Aunt ? Gideons voice wavered , his expression twisting in disbelief .
Uncle , shes Calliope ! Shes my fiancée ! Fiancée ? Not anymore .
Shes my wife now .
Were legally married .
Got the certificate and everything .
Our wedding photos turned out beautifully , want to see them ? I can send you a few .
And from now on , show some respect to your aunt .
Silass voice was icy .
Calliope remained silent , her expression unreadable as she met Gideons gaze with cool detachment .
No way .
Uncle , did she seduce you ? How could you possibly be interested in her ? Uncle , did Grandpa force you 1/2 15.56 into this ? This is just a temporary arrangement , right ?
