A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 379

"What do you mean, from the beginning?" Calliope asked, her voice tinged with confusion.

"When did you start fancying Silas?" Gideon sneered, crossing his arms. "Was it when you were still with me? Were you already into him then? Did both of you use me as a stepping stone?"

The more Gideon thought about it, the angrier he got. He clutched his chest dramatically. "So, I'm the only fool here?"

"Who said you were a stepping stone, Gideon? Are you out of your mind? Isn't everything that's happening today because of your own choices? Are you really going to blame others?" Calliope looked at Gideon, utterly exasperated.

He was spiraling, blaming everyone else for his own mess.

But honestly, she had to thank him. Without him, she wouldn't have realized how great Silas was. Silas was handsome, wealthy, and so much kinder than Gideon.

"You're saying this is my fault? No way! You two planned this from the start, didn't you?

Calliope, stop playing dumb. You started getting close to Silas right when you first came to my family estate, didn't you? He only showed up at the estate when he knew you'd be there... You two had plenty of private conversations. Are you saying nothing was going on?"

Gideon was devastated. He had thought he was the one who had cast aside Calliope, but now he realized it was the other way around. He was just a stepping stone for her!

Calliope paused, replaying past events in her mind.

She often went to the Baker estate because of Gideon. She hadn't thought much of it before, but now that Gideon mentioned it, she realized she always ran into Silas there.

At the time, she didn’t think Silas was approachable. Instead, she found him intimidating. Maybe it was because everyone in the Baker family seemed to fear him, so she was wary of him too, even though Silas had never done anything to harm her.
