Chapter 71 Calliope froze for a moment when she saw Silas .
She hadnt expected to see him here , and for a brief second , she felt a pang of guilt .
Is he harassing you ? Silas approached .
No , its nothing , Calliope replied instinctively .
Silas glanced at Gideon , who suddenly realized how ridiculous he looked holding a mop .
He dropped it and steadied himself against the wall , moving toward Calliope .
Just as Gideon was about to get close , Silas swiftly pulled Calliope into his arms .
His eyes were icy as he stared at the apologetic Gideon .

Its too late for regrets .
Shes mine now , he declared with a commanding presence .
When Laird arrived , he saw Silas brimming with a fierce aura while Gideon was still trying to reach Calliope .
Sensing that Silas might act , Calliope was holding onto him .
Silas , sorry , Gideons drunk ! Laird hurriedly supported Gideon , looking up and apologizing to Silas .
Hes just spouting nonsense .
Ill take him away now ! Laird looked visibly uneasy .
Gideon , lets go .
Youve upset your uncle ! Im not going anywhere ! Uncle Silas , why dont you ask her who she really likes , you or me ? Turning his head , with flushed cheeks from the alcohol , Gideon sneered , Calliope , I know youre just using my uncle to get back at me .
Youre still crazy about me , arent you ? After all these years , no matter how I treated you , you kept coming back .
Theres no way you just stopped loving me .
But Calliope , theres a limit to how far you can push this .
If you keep this up , Ill really get mad ! And if I get mad , I wont want you anymore ! Calliope , you should know when to stop ! While Im still patient , come back to me , and Ill treat you right ! Stop this nonsense , Gideon ! Laird forcefully pulled Gideon away .
Calliope watched Gideon leave , feeling amused .
It seemed Gideon finally felt threatened , perhaps because of the family shares .
He used to be indifferent no matter how hard she tried , but now , in his drunken state , he wanted her back .
As Calliope was lost in thought watching Gideon , she didnt notice Silas gazing at her intently .
His deep eyes held a trace of displeasure .
Was she still thinking about him ? Gideon wasnt wrong ; she had loved him for so many years .
How could she just turn around and fall for him ? Maybe she still had feelings for Gideon and just had been acting up .
But he didnt care .
She was his now , and he wouldnt let her go back .
Have you seen enough ? Silass cold voice , tinged with jealousy , came from above .
Startled , Calliope hurriedly stepped away from Silass embrace .
Whenever she looked at Silas , she couldnt help but be cautious .
Her wariness felt like a needle pricking Silass heart .
She was still distant with him , even after they had been so intimately close .
Just as Gideon said , maybe she was still hung up on him .
Are you here with friends ? Silas asked .
Yeah , with a few friends , Calliope nodded .
1/2 Chapter Arent you going to introduce me ? Do you want to meet them ? Calliope hesitated , but seeing Silass eager expression , she reluctantly led him to their booth .
Portia and the others were having a blast , but looked up in surprise when they saw Silas standing next to Calliope .
