Chapter 213 "You're asking me to cheat and be your mistress?" Calliope looked at Gideon with amused incredulity. She took a step back. "What makes you think you can compete with Silas? Never mind your status, you can't even get into the main office. And as for your looks and physique, where on earth does your confidence come from? Have you even looked in a mirror lately?"

"Calliope!" Gideon exclaimed in disbelief. "There's no need to be so harsh, even if you're upset! I know deep down you saying this just means you actually love me! You still love me, don't you? You just don't want to admit it!"

Calliope was silent for a moment, her eyes scanning him closely. "How come I've never realized?" "Realized what? That I'm this handsome?" Gideon asked, his confidence unshaken.

"Never realized you were such a dumbass," Calliope said, her expression deadpan. "And by the way, I've recorded everything you just said."

She pulled out her phone and pressed play, letting the audio fill the air around them.

Her eyes sparkled with mischief as she looked at him. "Gideon, what do you think your dear uncle will say when he hears this?"

"Calliope, you recorded me without my consent! How could you?" Gideon spluttered, his temper flaring. Calliope gazed at him, her demeanor calm. "I just thought your words weren't exactly pleasant, so I recorded them."

"Give me that phone and delete the recording!" Gideon demanded furiously.

"Not happening." Calliope said, firmness written all over her exquisite face.

Gideon lunged for the phone, but Calliope was quick on her feet, dodging his attempts easily. Gideon even stumbled after a few tries, his face turning livid with fury.
