Chapter 91 Gideon stood among the crowd , listening to the jokes about Calliope and Silas .
Each laugh and teasing remark felt like a thorn in his side .
He couldnt help but wonder if he had been the one to marry Calliope , would those comments have been directed at him instead ? Were Silas and Calliope thinking about having a baby ? Gideons gaze locked onto Silas and Calliope , a wave of unease washing over him .
The thought of them showing up at future family gatherings with a child in tow tied his stomach in knots .
He felt an almost unbearable restlessness , like an itch he couldnt scratch .
Silas , Callie , are you planning on having a kid this year ? Eamon asked , a hint of eagerness in his voice .
Eamon was genuinely excited at the thought of becoming a grandfather .
Silas had never dated seriously or brought anyone home like his other children .
Eamon had been worried about it for ages .
Then , before Callie and Silas married , Callie talked to him about it , and Silas agreed .
That had made Eamon quite happy .
Eamon thought Gideon wasnt quite the right match for Callie .
Callies brilliance was a well guarded secret , but Eamon was well aware of it .
Even though Gideon was his grandson , Eamon knew the lads limitations .
Seeing Silas and Callie getting along so well filled him with joy .
When hed earlier teased them about having kids , Eamon knew Silas was joking along , but he couldnt help feeling impatient , hence the question .
Calliope paused , considering the idea of having a child with Silas .
It wasnt entirely up to her , after all .
Silas had good genes , and she did like kids .
Even if they parted ways in the future , she doubted shed be interested in anyone else .
So , if it were with Silas , she wouldnt mind having a child .
Whether Silas wanted a child or not didnt matter much .
She had enough resources to raise one on her own .
Of course , it also depended on Silas .
After all , there was still a woman in his heart , and Callie was only a temporary part of his life .
That depends on Callie , Silas said , flashing Eamon a grin .
If Callies up for it , then I am , too .
If shed rather wait , Im in no rush .
Calliope was stunned .
Was he shifting the responsibility onto her ? Given their current situation , having a child seemed a bit premature .
She was relieved when Eamon didnt press further .
He simply smiled and said , Well , I wont push it .
Silas respects Callie , and so do I.
Calliope exhaled , feeling a weight lift off her shoulders .
As everyone settled down for dinner , Silas was attentive , always passing dishes to Calliope and peeling shrimp for her , gentle and considerate .
In the business world , Silas was a powerhouse , but with Calliope , he was the most tender and caring partner .
Gideon watched them , surprised by the jealousy that simmered within him .
After dinner , Eamon invited Silas for a game of chess .
Calliope took a stroll in the garden outside .
She stopped in front of a wall covered with climbing roses , gazing at the moonlit blossoms .
