Chapter 137
"Hey, Calista, Dahlia, Yvette's talking to you guys. Can't you hear her?" Gideon clenched his fists, clearly aware
that the family didn't really like Yvette. It was even more apparent when everyone seemed to be siding with
Calliope.
It was burning him up inside. Seeing Calliope's nonchalant attitude about his impending marriage to Yvette made
things worse.
He had expected skind of reaction-anger, jealousy, anything. But Calliope was as calm as if they'd never
had any connection.
She'd really changed.
In the past, even a small interaction with Yvette would have made her jealous, but now he was on the brink of
marriage, and he had even brought Yvette home. Yet Calliope remained unfazed, whispering with Silas and

A profound sense of loss settled in Gideon's chest, like he'd suddenly lost something important.
"Hi, Yvette," Calista and Dahlia finally responded, barely lifting their heads before returning their focus to
Calliope, their faces lighting up with excitement.
"Calliope, you're amazing!"
"Can you show us how you do it?"
Calista and Dahlia were glued to Calliope's phone, looking at her with admiration.

too!"
"I'll send you slater. If | have time, I'll help you level up," Calliope said, ruffling their hair. "Thanks, Calliope!
You're the best!" they beamed.
Silas glanced at the pair before addressing their mother, Alyssa. "Hey, Alyssa, if Calista and Dahlia have time
over the weekend or during breaks, they can cto the
firm'll teach them a few things."
Alyssa was delighted at Silas's offer and quickly nodded. She turned to her children. "Well, what do you say to
your uncle and aunt?"
"Thank you, Uncle Silas and Aunt Calliope!" they chimed in unison.
Silas nodded with a faint smile.
Upon overhearing, Verity looked
toward Silas and the twins, her mind plotting something. Meanwhile, Fleur's face darkened. She couldn't believe
her ears. She'd asked Silas to mentor her son before, but he'd always turned her down cold. But he was offering
to bring Calista and Dahlia on board himself. Was it because of Calliope?
Fleur narrowed her eyes at Silas, feeling a mix of disbelief and resentment. Suspicion clouded her thoughts.
Gideon's face was red with anger. Whether Silas did it on purpose or not, it was humiliating. Wasn't today

Eamon cleared his throat and spoke up. "Since Gideon invited us all to
discuss the wedding, maybe you folks should weigh in. What do you think about the marriage? If everyone
agrees, let's pick a date for the big day."
Gideon hopefully looked around.
Seeing the silence, Eamon turned to Gideon's parents. "James, Fleur, this is about your son getting married. It's
your decision, but we're here to offer sadvice. What are you thinking right now?"
