A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 72 Everyone froze for a moment .

They all just stared numbly at Silas , no one saying a word , almost forgetting to even say hello .

Am I interrupting something ? Silas asked in a voice that was surprisingly gentle .

No , not at all ! Portia quickly replied .

Calliope led Silas into the room , and after they sat down , the atmosphere turned a bit tense .

Nobody dared to speak .

They all knew Silas , but they were used to seeing him as the cool uncle figure , someone they looked up to , almost like an elder .

But now , he walked in as Calliopes husband , suddenly on the same level as them .

Even if Silas was fine with it , they still needed time to adjust ! Mavis had interacted with Silas the most , given that her mentor , Uriah , was good friends with him .

But still , shed always seen him as a sort of elder , treating him with respect .

Now that he was her friends husband , things felt … different .

There was a certain amount of respect everyone held for Silas .

The lively chatter from before had vanished , leaving the room feeling like a cold cellar .

Am I that intimidating ? Silas noticed the shift in the room .

Im Callies husband now .

Whatever you want to say , just go ahead .

No need to be scared of me , Silas assured them .

Really ? Portia asked , her innocent eyes fixated on him .

Silas nodded .

With a slightly more approachable air about him , and having had a few too many drinks , Portia found her courage If I ask you something , you promise you wont get mad ? I wont get mad .

Okay , here goes ! Portia leaned in with her bright eyes narrowing slightly , curiosity piqued .

Silas , I heard you have a first love a special woman you never quite got over , thats why you always kept distance with other females .

Is that true ? And if so , does that mean youre going to hurt our Callie ? Callies your wife now , and I dont care if that first love thing is real or not , but since Callies with you , you better not treat her badly because of it ! You know , that jerk did that to her .

Callie loved him so much , but he was always hung up on his first love ! Portia picked up a bottle , waving it around in her tipsy indignation .

Mavis felt a pang of panic .

According to Uriah , Silas was very sensitive about that first love , which was a taboo topic for Silas .

Portia , with her loose lips , might have just poked the bear .

Mavis wanted to cover Portias mouth , but it was too late .

Archie , sitting quietly , didnt say much .

He didnt fear Silas but rather leaned back , watching and waiting for Silass reaction .

His gaze carried a hint of hostility .

Why so silent ? What , did you marry Callie , share a bed with her , but still have eyes for someone else ? That would make you a jerk too ! Portia threw a punch in the air .

Calliope was in shock .

Portia , I think youve had enough to drink ! She tried to intervene , but Archie , too , decided to stir the pot .

1/2 14.56 Chapter Portias got a point , Mr.

Myers .

Youve married Callie , shared lifes intimacies with her , so you should let go of that first love , at least while youre married .

Give her the commitment she deserves .

Archie lifted his eyes , swirling the drink in his glass .

A smirk played on his lips , a mix of mischief and a touch of charm .

With a voice so soft it was almost hard to catch , he added , Callies more important to me than my life .

Please , treat her well .
