Calliope watched as Silas's face shifted, and she hurried to explain. “No, I’m not interested in him anymore. It is because I’m used to...”
Whenever she saw Silas, she’d instinctively see him as Gideon’s uncle. Maybe it was from all those times she’d chased after Gideon and got used to it. She always forgot to correct herself.
“I’m not your uncle. I’m your husband.”
Silas glanced up and moved closer, towering over her. As he leaned in, Calliope swallowed hard, her heart pounding like a drum.
“‘Uncle’ is what he calls me. You’re not his woman, so remember it.’”
Calliope nodded, looking up at Silas with wide, hopeful eyes. Her bright, deep eyes and pretty face, tinged with a slight blush, made it hard for anyone to resist her.
And Silas didn't say anything more.
Calliope headed to the kitchen and cooked two bowls of spaghetti. The two of them shared the meal together.
...
The following day, Calliope was the talk of the town.
The fireworks on her birthday night had wowed everyone in Capitalton. Someone had recorded and posted the whole event online, saying how unbelievably lucky Callie was.
People guessed who could have pulled off such a grand gesture. Throwing a birthday celebration as extravagant and luxurious as that was unheard of. Those fireworks were something else, outshining even the grandest firework displays.
Some were envious, some were jealous, and, of course, there was much speculation about who this Callie could be.
"Who in Capitalton is Callie? Is she the daughter of some elite family or the wife of a big shot to have such an opulent birthday celebration?"
"There are only a handful of true socialites in Capitalton, and I don’t recall any named Callie."

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 !!!...
