A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 14 Gideon answered the phone and stepped out .

In the private booth , as soon as Gideon sat down , his friends gave him these pitying looks .

Gideon , man , we know this must be tough for you .

But what can you do ? I mean , hes your uncle , right ? You just have to roll with it .

Exactly , Gideon .

Mr.

Myers isnt someone we can mess with .

Were all pissed on your behalf , but what can we do ? Yeah , man .

Chin up ! Here , have a drink ! Besides , you werent that into Calliope anyway , right ? Now you can go after Yvette instead … Sure , Yvette might not have Calliopes looks or whatever , but shes your true love ! One after another , his friends kept throwing out words of comfort .

Gideon , who had only wanted to grab a bite to eat , paused , fork in hand .

He stared at them , bewildered .

What on earth are you guys talking about ? Im married to Calliope … Dude , are you out of it ? Laird reached over , feeling Gideons forehead .

How could you be married to Calliope … when she just married Silas ? My brother saw Silass Twitter post ! Cant believe Calliope kept it under wraps- total shocker ! Right ? One minute shes all about you , then boom , shes with Silas at the altar ! Thats some next level stuff ! Im telling you , Calliope was just using you to get close to Silas .

Shes played you , man .

The group started buzzing with chatter .

Gideon was still in a fog , not getting a word of what they were saying .

Whats up with my uncle? Can you guys speak in a language I understand ? Theres no way Calliopes involved with my uncle .

What nonsense are you spouting ? Laird , if you keep this up , Im gonna get mad .

Gideon said , feeling both annoyed and confused .

Laird and the others exchanged looks , something dawning on them .

Wait , you seriously dont know ? The wedding blew up on social media , and you … you know nothing ? Laird looked Gideon straight in the eye , utterly shocked .

You really dont know ? Know what ? Stop with the riddles and tell me whats going on .

Gideons frustration was mounting .

They were speaking in riddles , and the more they danced around the point , the more restless he became .

He didnt fully understand , but one thing was clear- this involved Calliope , and it wasnt good .

Calliope married Silas .

You didnt know ? Laird asked cautiously .

How could Calliope marry my uncle? What nonsense are you talking about ? My uncle wouldnt marry Calliope ; theyre from two different worlds ! Gideon found it all a bit absurd .

His uncle was the head honcho of the Baker family , controlling everything from their family business to pretty , much the whole of Capitalton .

There werent many who didnt fear him .

1/2 15.56 What a joke ! Calliope and Silas ? No way .

Calliope only even knew his uncle because of him .

Marry Silas ? That was laughable .

Even if Calliope wanted that , would Silas even notice her ? His uncle , that aloof , untouchable figure , practically godlike , would he even notice a woman Gideon himself had barely been interested in ?
