A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 97 Chapter 97 Who got on your nerves today ? Uriah asked , lounging casually on the corner of Silass desk , a steaming mug of coffee in hand .

Come on , Mr.

Myers , who would dare upset the great you ? he teased , grinning .

Silas shot him a glance , not in the mood for banter .

Was it Calliope who ticked you off ? Uriahs eyes sparkled with mischief , enjoying the situation too much .

I told you that shes not into you .

Even if you do the noble thing and marry her , she wont thank you for this .

Youre just asking for trouble ! Why dont you get lost and stop bothering me ? Silas retorted , giving Uriah a light kick .

Uriah brushed off his pants , unruffled .

Im just trying to help .

Maybe if you spill the beans , I can offer some advice ? Silas looked up at Uriah , words hanging on the tip of his tongue , but ultimately , he shook his head .

You havent even had your first kiss yet .

What advice could you give me ? Wow , that stings , man ! Uriah feigned hurt .

Words like arrows , huh ? Silas chuckled softly .

You werent being nice , either .

Im just speaking the truth .

Mavis told me Calliopes got her heart set on Gideon , your nephew .

Marrying you might be her way of acting out .

Women are stubborn creatures when it comes to love .

Shes been after Gideon for years .

Why would she give up so easily ? And even if she claims to have moved on , theres always that lingering bitterness .

Loves a cruel beast , you know .

Thats why Im smarter than you .

I dont fall for any woman .

Theyre more trouble than theyre worth ! Uriah said smugly , I steer clear of drama .

Silas smirked , Mavis is a woman .

Shes different .

Shes my apprentice , Uriah clarified .

Its purely a mentor student relationship .

Oh , mentor student , huh ? Does Mavis see it that way , too ? Of course , Uriah replied confidently .

Were as innocent as they come .

Dont get any funny ideas .

Sure .

Silas leaned back , a sly smile on his lips .

But what if Maviss feelings arent so innocent ? What if she confessed that she liked you ? Uriah frowned .

That would never happen .

But if it did ? Then Id nip that nonsense in the bud .

You wouldnt fall for Mavis ? Silas asked , clearly entertained by the conversation .

Not a chance , Uriah said sternly .

I dont need the hassle of romance .

Women become complications , and I dont need any vulnerabilities .

You know the life I lead , so no , never .

With that , Uriah hopped off the desk .

Enough about me .

Lets focus on your predicament .

Shes already your wife .

Got any plans to win her over ? Any suggestions ? Silas asked , deep in thought .

Flowers ? Uriah offered somewhat sheepishly .

Silas gave him a long , penetrating look .

Why am I even asking you , Mr.

No Experience ? Get out of here ! Hey , Im just trying to help ! You heartless jerk , Uriah laughed , waving off Silass dismissal as he headed out .

1/2 14:58 Chapter 97 With Uriah gone , Wynton entered to discuss business with Silas .

Silass intense gaze lingered on him for a moment too long .

Mr.

Myers , is there something on your mind ? Wynton asked , nervously scratching his head .

Silass look made him uneasy , despite having checked the calendar to ensure today was supposedly a lucky day .
