After dinner, Calliope and Eamon wrapped up a game of chess, and she was ready to head out.
As soon as she stepped outside, Gideon seized the moment to follow her.
"I'm getting married tomorrow."
Gideon moved to stand in front of Calliope, looking her straight in the eyes.
"If you don't speak up now, you'll lose your chance. I'm about to marry her."
He just couldn't let it go. He was still holding onto a fantasy about her. He couldn't believe she had moved on so quickly. It didn't make sense; she had once loved him with such intensity, as if her life depended on it.
Calliope's mouth twitched. "Seriously, Gideon? Tomorrow's your wedding. Of course, I know. I've been helping with the planning all this time. I'm your aunt by marriage, after all. I may be your 'little aunt,' but I'm not that unreliable."
"And what do you mean I won't have a chance if I don't speak up? What chance do I even need? A chance to pick up trash? Gideon, you were someone I tossed into the trash. The dumpster's filthy, why would I ever retrieve anything from it? I'd send it straight to the incinerator!"
Gideon's face turned sour.
"You didn't used to talk like this."
Calliope shot a glance at Gideon. "People change, Gideon. Haven't you changed for Yvette? She's pregnant, for crying out loud. What more do you want? Don't you think it's inappropriate to treat a pregnant woman like this? Are you a man or what?"
Gideon stared intently at Calliope. "But it's you that I love!"

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 !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
