A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 402 Chapter 402 Hey , I thought you werent coming back until tomorrow ? Calliope asked , a hint of surprise in her voice .

Silas chuckled , I missed you too much .

Did you bring me the gift I wanted ? Yeah , I got it .

Youre back for good now , right ? Not leaving again tomorrow ? When did you get here ? Why didnt you tell me ? she continued , her questions spilling out as they walked hand in hand under the starlit sky , painting a picture of serene romance .

Silas gently messed up her hair , his voice soft as a summer breeze , I finished work early , just couldnt wait to see you .

Meanwhile , Gideon stood at a distance , watching them with a hollow feeling in his chest .

Gideon , stop fooling yourself .

Im your best option , came Yvettes voice from behind him .

With Silas around , you know you cant compete .

Even if I let you go , shed never come back to you .

And for the sake of the child Im carrying , please , just let it go .

Gideon turned to Yvette , his expression unreadable .

Go home by yourself , he said flatly before driving away .

Yvette clenched her fists , frustration simmering beneath her skin .

What are you doing out here in the cold? You dont want my grandchild catching a chill ! Fleurs voice interjected , her presence as commanding as ever .

I made you some soup for the baby .

Drink it before you leave .

Fleur glanced in the direction Gideon had driven off .

You need to get used to it .

Gideon will never only have eyes for you , nor will he always be by your side .

If youre marrying into this family , you should be prepared .

Yvette frowned , disbelief etched on her face .

What do you mean by that ? In families like ours , Fleur continued , her tone matter of fact , its normal for men to have a few others on the side .

Im just giving you a heads up .

If Gideon finds someone else , keep your mouth shut .

Dont think just because youre marrying him , you own him .

Youre his wife , but that doesnt give you the right to control him .

Your job is to manage yourself and have the baby .

Fleur gave Yvette a pointed look .

I hope you werent naïve enough to think you could have some fairy tale exclusive romance with Gideon .

Wake up .

A small , cynical laugh escaped her lips .

Learn to turn a blind eye when necessary .

Yvette bit her lip , holding back words she wanted to say but didnt dare utter .

The wedding hadnt even happened yet , and this was how they treated her .

But shed bide her time .

Once married , she wouldnt be so easily pushed around .

Especially not by Calliope ! At the bar , Gideon nursed his drink , the silence heavy around him .

His friends watched him with concern .

Whats up with you , man ? one of them asked .

Youre getting married tomorrow , why the long face ? Yeah , last time you werent thrilled about the wedding , but you didnt hit the bottle like this .

Arent you marrying the woman you wanted this time ? Whats there to be moody about ? Hey , you alright ? Pre wedding jitters , maybe ? Gideon finally looked up , his eyes meeting theirs .

I regret it , he confessed .

13.01 Chapter 402 What do you regret ? They exchanged surprised glances .

Dont tell me youre regretting not marrying Calliope ? That cant be .

You were never into her .

It was always Yvette you wanted , and now youre getting her ! Yeah , if anyone should be sulking , its us ..

Were still single , living the lonely life over here !
