Chapter 127

Their car cruised leisurely down the winding country road, and Calliope had guessed the whole ride but still couldn't figure out what Silas had in store for her.

"It's not this, it's not that, not even a helicopter. Could it be fireworks tonight? A drone show?"

She had exhausted her list of possibilities, everything she thought she liked, yet none seemed to fit.

"You'll see when we get there," Silas chuckled, his smile full of warmth and affection.

"I'm getting a bit impatient now. You've piqued my curiosity."

Calliope hadn't initially felt much curiosity or anticipation. After all, she'd reached a point in life where she lacked for nothing; she could easily acquire whatever she desired.

Moreover, she had three exceptionally doting brothers who took great pleasure in gifting her unique things, wanting her to have the world at her fingertips.

But now, trying not to be curious was a challenge. She genuinely couldn't fathom what Silas could possibly give her. Gifts usually fell within a predictable range, so what kind of surprise could Silas have got her?

She'd even considered a grand piano or various musical instruments. Absurdly, even specialized acupuncture needles had crossed her mind. She'd thought of everything she could come into contact with, yet nothing seemed right, especially since Fagan mentioned it was something Silas had painstakingly prepared, taking several days to arrange.
