Chapter 154
"This year, you want to keep things quiet, but next year, we will go all out," Silas murmured, wrapping his arms
around her waist from behind. His chin rested on her head, and his voice was as sweet as honey. "My girl
deserves to be celebrated by the entire world."
Calliope couldn't help but smile. She could see Silas's impossibly handsface in the reflection of the floor-to-
ceiling windows.
He was drop-dead gorgeous, the handsthat made one's heart skip a beat with only a glance. And his words
were music to her ears.
"You do know how to flatter a girl."
"I'm not just flattering you. | mean it. Callie, you deserve the best, and you can be as bold as you want. With me
by your side, there's nothing to fear. Just be your boldest self. In Capitalton, no one would dare cross you."

She gazed at the night sky but couldn't help wondering, "Is he like this with everyone? What if his woman wasn't
her? What if it was someone else, that unforgettable someone from his past? Would he be like this with her,

If he was this good to her, imagine how good he'd be to the woman he loved. Would he even give her his life?
She felt a pang of jealousy. She was curious about who this woman was. This woman was his secret. But she
didn't know, and nobody told her.
Calliope lowered her eyes. Her voice was soft as she spoke, "Silas... please don't be so good to me." "What?"
Silas paused in surprise, "Why?"
Didn't she like how he treated her?
"I'm afraid I'll fall hopelessly in love with you..."
Loving someone was exhausting, and loving deeply was even more so. Especially when she wasn't sure how long
these days would last.
But before Silas could respond, Uriah Stewart called out to him, catching his attention.
Uriah signaled to Silas.
Silas immediately took Calliope's hand. "Cwith me."
"Hmm?" Calliope looked at Silas, puzzled, "Where to?" "The rooftop."
Without further explanation, Silas led her out of the banquet hall. They walked through a long corridor, climbed a
short flight of stairs, and opened the door to the rooftop of the Starlight Hotel.
The rooftop was enormous, and she had never been up here before this was her first time.

cascading like waterfalls. With countless lights, the scene was enchanting.
Calliope was stunned. It was breathtakingly beautiful. The night breeze carried a fresh floral scent. Silas gently

From the Starlight Hotel's rooftop, you could see Capitalton's
nightscape-a bustling world that looked both majestic and beautiful.
"Callie, it's time," Silas said softly, "Look up!"
