Calliope stayed silent while Silas fixed his gaze on Gideon for what felt like an eternity.
"Just a 'Happy Birthday' without a gift, huh?"
"That's a bit rude. Don't you think so?"
Gideon was stunned. He had shown up drunk and impulsive, unsettled by Silas celebrating Calliope’s birthday. The thought of bringing a gift hadn’t even crossed his mind. Seeing her, he felt a heavy weight in his chest. She seemed happier, more alive, without him.
"Sorry, I forgot to bring a gift," Gideon said, frowning.
"That's okay. You don’t need to give gifts immediately. If I remember correctly, you've got a place in Misty Haven. If you gave that to Calliope, she'd be quite pleased." Silas raised an eyebrow at Gideon.
Gideon hesitated, caught off guard.
"What’s wrong, having second thoughts?"
"No, it's not that..." Gideon dared not defy Silas. He knew he had to comply if Silas wanted him to gift the house.
“Well, if you wouldn’t mind, Calliope, the house in Misty Haven is yours. I'll have the paperwork sorted out and transferred to you soon."
Calliope smiled slightly. "I don't mind at all."
The Misty Haven house was one she had asked Gideon to buy years ago. She cherished it because she and her grandfather had once rented it together. Though she hadn't lived there in a while, it remained under Gideon's name.
Gideon had once promised to give it to her but never followed through. He nearly let Yvette move in, which had sparked a big argument between them.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
