A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 134 His actions were so natural and affectionate that she couldnt help but feel her cheeks heating up and her heart racing like a wild horse .

She looked down , pretending to be engrossed in her slice of cheesecake .

When she finished the last bite , the car had pulled up at the Baker family .

Coincidentally , Gideon and Yvette had just arrived , too .

Gideon stepped out of the car , intending to open the door for Yvette , but paused when he saw Silass car pull up .

He was momentarily stunned .

He hadnt expected Silas and Calliope to show up as well .

His gaze instinctively landed on the car .

Silas was the first to step out , his long legs unfolding gracefully .

He walked around to the other side and bent down to open the door .

When Calliope stepped out , Silas instinctively placed a hand above her head to prevent her from bumping it .

While watching Silass considerate gesture , Gideons eyes narrowed slightly .

Calliope exited the car and exchanged a look with Silas , her cheeks rosy , eyes sparkling like stars .

Gideon stared , realizing he had never seen her like this before .

She seemed to have blossomed overnight , radiating a newfound femininity and brilliance .

She was like a little sun , impossible to look away from .

The two were engrossed in conversation , leaning close and occasionally sharing a soft laugh .

She didnt even glance in Gideons direction .

It was as if he didnt exist to her at that moment .

Unable to contain himself , Gideon suddenly said , Uncle Silas ! Only then did Silas and Calliope turn their attention toward him .

Silas gave him a brief nod , maintaining an air of aloofness that made Gideon uneasy .

It didnt bother him in the past , but in front of Calliope , it made him feel stifled .

What brings you here ? Gideon asked , his eyes flicking to Calliope before he could stop himself .

Eamon mentioned you were planning to discuss your marriage to Yvette today and wanted us , the elders , to be here for the discussion , Silas replied coldly .

Since were here , lets head inside .

With that , he gently placed a hand on Calliopes waist , guiding her toward the entrance .

Gideon watched them walk away , eyes lingering on Calliopes slender waist , his fists clenching involuntarily .

The inexplicable frustration in his chest made it hard to breathe .

Noticing Gideon hadnt come to open her door , Yvette stepped out on her own .

She saw his clenched fists and the way his eyes followed Calliope .

She couldnt help but bit her lip .

After a moment , she relaxed her jaw and walked over , slipping her arm through Gideons .

Gideon , Im a bit nervous .

Do you think your mom will approve of us ? And what about your grandfather ? Ive heard he can be quite intimidating , very stern … Her voice was soft , with the vulnerability that instinctively made one want to protect her .

Dont worry .

Im here , Gideon assured her , snapping back to reality as they made their way into the grand hall of the estate .

Yvette had never been to the Baker estate before .

She knew it was worth a fortune .

Though the front gate appeared modest , the place was breathtakingly grand inside .

With its beautiful rock gardens and lush greenery , the massive courtyard was impeccably maintained .

As they entered the main hall , the grandeur of the estate became even more apparent .

Though the decor was old fashioned , everything was rich with history and undeniably valuable .
