A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 245 "Callie's great. You've got good taste." Upton glanced at Calliope and Baber before turning his gaze back to Silas. "I hope you treat her well. She's even more extraordinary than you realize."

"I know," Silas said, his face softening with adoration. A small smile played on his lips. "Having her is the best thing that ever happened to me."

Upton studied him for a moment before breaking into a chuckle.

"Never thought she'd end up marrying you. I never had much faith in Gideon, to be honest. But knowing she's with you? That puts me at ease."

Silas narrowed his eyes slightly. "You and Callie, you two are close?"

Upton shrugged. "She's like a little sister to me."

He exhaled and looked away for a second before continuing. "You know I don't have much family. Baber's mother passed away, and he's the most important person in my life. Callie gave him a second chance. She's helped me more times than I can count. So, yeah, aside from Baber, she's the most important person to me. I care about Callie. A lot."

Then, his voice dropped into something more serious. "So, treat Callie right. I'll be standing in her corner if she ever gets hurt or feels wronged, even if it's you."

A smirk curled at the edge of his lips. "Callie's so-called family failed her, but that's fine. I can make up for a million of them."

Silas held Upton's gaze, then gave a firm nod. "I will."

They chatted longer before Silas' phone buzzed. It was about work. He sighed, excused himself with a quick kiss on Calliope's cheek, and left.
