Chapter 60 Ever since her rebirth , almost every night was plagued by nightmares , forcing her to relive the darkest and most painful moments of her past .
But whenever Silas was around , an inexplicable calm would settle over her .
The next afternoon , Calliope received a call from Fleur while She was staring blankly into the backyard of her fondue restaurant .
On the other end , Fleur was cussing her out vehemently .
Calliope , youll regret this .

If Gideon marries another woman , itll be too late for tears ! Calliopes response was cool and measured as she replied , Well , then I hope my dear nephew finds someone soon .
Youd love to be a grandmother , wouldnt you ? Fleur was momentarily speechless , her frustration bubbling over .
Calliope , arent you worried about Gideon marrying someone else ? Why should I be ? His marriage wont change a thing for me .
Ill still be his aunt in law , and dont worry , the wedding gift from me will be generous , Calliope said with a sly smile .
Yvette seems like a good match .
Why dont you arrange something ? Gideons not getting any younger ; he should settle down before its too late ! You ! Calliope , youre impossible ! Fleur huffed before hanging up in a fury .
Calliope took a leisurely sip of her iced coffee , the sun warming her face just right .
With nothing better to do , she scrolled through her Twitter feed .
To her amusement , she stumbled upon a post Gideon had shared earlier that morning .
It was a selfie of him and Yvette , looking quite cozy together .
Below Gideons tweet was Yvettes own post with the same photo , thanking him and announcing that she was now his personal assistant and ready to give it her all .
How interesting , Calliope mused .
Gideon had brought Yvette into his company .
As far as she knew , Yvette wasnt particularly skilled and had a reputation for being difficult to get along with .
Her working with Gideon was sure to ruffle some feathers .
It was clear this little Twitter display was meant for her eyes .
Calliope barely knew Yvette , but Yvette had added her on Twitter , making her intentions obvious : to provoke Calliope .
There was a time when Yvettes antics would have gotten under her skin , leading to heated arguments with Gideon .
But no more .
Calliope realized that to someone who didnt love her , even her most desperate pleas were as insignificant as swinging on a swing set .
Now , these tweets barely registered with her .
Just two people trying to get a rise out of her .
If she let them , shed only be playing the fool .
Instead of being bothered , Calliope casually liked both of their posts and left a comment .
Congrats , Gideon ! Whens the wedding ? Ive got the gift ready ! Calliopes comment quickly stirred up a storm .
Friends and acquaintances of Calliope and Gideon began to like and comment on the post .
Some , unaware of the situation , congratulated Gideon on his stealthy engagement .
Others joked about how Gideon missed being the groom last time and shouldnt let someone else beat him to it now .
Before long , Calliope noticed Silas had also commented below her post .
