A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 28 Once upon a time , when Calliope was chasing after Gideon , everyone felt a bit sorry for her .

She treated him so well , yet he seemed as indifferent as a cold pizza left out overnight .

And then there was Yvette .

People always said Yvette was different from Calliope , but when a man was being nice to a woman , it was rarely just a platonic thing .

Gideon , listen .

Calliope and Silas make a great pair .

You never really liked Calliope , so stop entertaining those crazy ideas ! Youre not getting any younger , you know .

Its about time you settled down .

You and that Yvette seem to be getting along well .

When are you bringing her home to meet the family ? Verity was like a kid in a candy store , watching Gideon squirm with delight .

To be fair , even though Fleur wasnt Calliopes biggest fan , she had to admit Calliope was way better than Yvette .

Not to mention , Calliope was the daughter of the Jewell family , even if she wasnt exactly the apple of their eye .

But hey , she was still a proper lady with a respectable background .

Yvette , on the other hand , was a whole different story .

She came from a small town with no notable family ties , her parents divorced ages ago , and her mom remarried three times .

Her dad was a notorious gambler .

Even though she got a college degree , it wasnt like she graduated with honors or anything .

Now the work she had wasnt something to be envied of , just a secretary from a tiny company no money , no house , no car .

Sometimes she even had to play nanny for her moms kid from her third marriage .

Just hearing about her background was enough to give them a headache .

In families like theirs , marrying into the same social standing was a given .

But Gideon ? He had his eyes on Yvette , the wild card .

Naturally , Fleur wasnt thrilled about Yvette either .

But Verity found it all entertaining .

She loved to see Fleur and the rest suffer, thinking that if Gideon actually married Yvette , it would keep Fleurs family on their toes .

If he really did end up marrying someone like Yvette , itd surely become the biggest joke in Capitalton .

Gideons face was stormy .

Sure , he liked Yvette , but he knew she wouldnt help his career one bit .

That was why hed been set on marrying Calliope , though that wedding never happened .

He glanced at Verity , wondering if Calliope would be upset if he married Yvette instead .

She couldnt possibly not care about him at all , he assumed .

Gideon squinted in Calliopes direction .

Meanwhile , Calliope had just finished a game of chess with Eamon .

You still got it , Eamon ! I concede defeat ! Calliope said with a playful salute .

You cheeky girl , always flattering me ! Eamon gazed at Calliope , his eyes twinkling with affection .

Silas , take good care of Callie .

Its getting late , you two should head home .

Alright , Silas nodded .

Calliope stifled a yawn ; she was definitely getting sleepy .

Alright , Eamon , were off .

Well come by when were free .

Good , good .

I need my rest too .

Everyone , lets call it a night .

Chapter 28 With Eamons farewell , the gathering wrapped up ..

Usually , everyone went back to their own homes ; they didnt stay at the family house except during holidays to keep Eamon company .

તેનો ભૂકો કે સુહ છે Calliope and Silas were the first to leave .

Gideons car was parked nearby , and as he was leaving , he caught sight of Silas shielding Calliopes head as she got in the car , looking at her with such tenderness .

Uncle Silas , Gideon called out .
