A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 73 Silas hadnt even spoken yet , and Calliope was already feeling restless .

These people clearly had no sense of self preservation .

Did they really think they could threaten Silas ? After all , the whole marriage thing was something she had begged Silas for .

She was already thanking her lucky stars that he agreed to marry her , so how could she dare to have too many demands from him ? He was the wealthiest man in Capitalton , the one everyone held in awe , the Prince of Capitalton .

Not just in Capitalton across the entire country , even the world his name carried weight and respect .

She didnt know all the details of his background , but she was very aware that he was anything but ordinary .

To Silas , they probably seemed as insignificant as ants .

If he wanted , he could crush them with ease .

Archie and Portia have had too much to drink ! Calliope stood up with a forced smile , grabbing Silas by the arm .

Sorry about this , your friends are probably waiting for you too .

Lets get out of here! Silas rose , guided by Calliopes insistent tug .

His gaze was deep as he looked at Archie , sensing the hostility in his eyes , a sentiment that was all too familiar to him as a man .

Archies demeanor was tinged with jealousy and threaded with a hint of threat .

Silas took a glance at him , then at Portia and Mavis .

Ill always take responsibility for my wife .

After that , Calliope hurriedly led Silas out , fearing more than anything that Portia and Archie might foolishly dance on the edge of disaster .

Dont mind them ; theyre just concerned about me ! Whatever Portia said about some first love , I wont take it to heart , and I wont pry either .

I know youre helping me because I once helped you , so were even .

We have an agreement , and while you might indulge me , I understand .

Ive said before , you can ask me to leave anytime .

If the woman you truly love returns , Ill leave without hesitation , no hard feelings , and no complaints .

Calliope always felt like she was occupying the place of someone more special , which left her feeling somewhat guilty .

Silass secret was something no one knew , and she wasnt keen on knowing more .

Silas didnt say anything ; he just looked at Calliope intently , his eyes darkened and carrying a hint of displeasure .

Her eagerness to leave and the fear she showed towards him didnt sit well with him .

Her words about leaving at any moment or stepping aside if necessary left him feeling oppressed : She said those things because she didnt care about him .

If she really did care , she would cling to him as she did with Gideon , refusing to let go no matter what .

Are you upset ? Seeing Silas remain silent , Calliope grew even more anxious .

She was usually fearless , but she had a certain respect for Silas .

She dreaded upsetting him .

Are you really that afraid of me ? Silass voice was low and slightly husky as he looked directly at her .

He had never been harsh with her .

Yet , she always seemed to maintain a distant and respectful attitude towards him .

Calliope blinked at Silas .

Just a little … Why ? Cant really say .

Calliope pressed her lips , testing the waters as she added , I suppose no one isnt a little 14:56 intimidated by you ? You dont have to be , Silas reached up to smooth her hair .

Youre Mrs.

Myers .

You can do whatever you want .

Even with you ? Calliope asked , surprised .

Yes .

Silass eyes softened with a hint of affection .

As long as you want .

You can boss me around , teach me a lesson , do anything you please .

Youre Mrs.

Myers now , youre not just anyone else Chapter Chapter 74
