Chapter 97 Chapter 97 Who got on your nerves today ? Uriah asked , lounging casually on the corner of Silass desk , a steaming mug of coffee in hand .
Come on , Mr.
Myers , who would dare upset the great you ? he teased , grinning .
Silas shot him a glance , not in the mood for banter .
Was it Calliope who ticked you off ? Uriahs eyes sparkled with mischief , enjoying the situation too much .
I told you that shes not into you .
Even if you do the noble thing and marry her , she wont thank you for this .
Youre just asking for trouble ! Why dont you get lost and stop bothering me ? Silas retorted , giving Uriah a light kick .
Uriah brushed off his pants , unruffled .
Im just trying to help .
Maybe if you spill the beans , I can offer some advice ? Silas looked up at Uriah , words hanging on the tip of his tongue , but ultimately , he shook his head .
You havent even had your first kiss yet .
What advice could you give me ? Wow , that stings , man ! Uriah feigned hurt .
Words like arrows , huh ? Silas chuckled softly .
You werent being nice , either .
Im just speaking the truth .
Mavis told me Calliopes got her heart set on Gideon , your nephew .
Marrying you might be her way of acting out .
Women are stubborn creatures when it comes to love .
Shes been after Gideon for years .
Why would she give up so easily ? And even if she claims to have moved on , theres always that lingering bitterness .
Loves a cruel beast , you know .
Thats why Im smarter than you .
I dont fall for any woman .
Theyre more trouble than theyre worth ! Uriah said smugly , I steer clear of drama .
Silas smirked , Mavis is a woman .
Shes different .
Shes my apprentice , Uriah clarified .

Its purely a mentor student relationship .
Oh , mentor student , huh ? Does Mavis see it that way , too ? Of course , Uriah replied confidently .
Were as innocent as they come .
Dont get any funny ideas .
Sure .
Silas leaned back , a sly smile on his lips .
But what if Maviss feelings arent so innocent ? What if she confessed that she liked you ? Uriah frowned .
That would never happen .
But if it did ? Then Id nip that nonsense in the bud .
You wouldnt fall for Mavis ? Silas asked , clearly entertained by the conversation .
Not a chance , Uriah said sternly .
I dont need the hassle of romance .
Women become complications , and I dont need any vulnerabilities .
You know the life I lead , so no , never .
With that , Uriah hopped off the desk .
Enough about me .
Lets focus on your predicament .
Shes already your wife .
Got any plans to win her over ? Any suggestions ? Silas asked , deep in thought .
Flowers ? Uriah offered somewhat sheepishly .
Silas gave him a long , penetrating look .
Why am I even asking you , Mr.
No Experience ? Get out of here ! Hey , Im just trying to help ! You heartless jerk , Uriah laughed , waving off Silass dismissal as he headed out .
1/2 14:58 Chapter 97 With Uriah gone , Wynton entered to discuss business with Silas .
Silass intense gaze lingered on him for a moment too long .
Mr.
Myers , is there something on your mind ? Wynton asked , nervously scratching his head .
Silass look made him uneasy , despite having checked the calendar to ensure today was supposedly a lucky day .
