A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 288

Calliope first gave Silas a once–over, ensuring he was indeed unscathed, and only then did she sigh with relief.

Yara glanced up at Silas, a smirk playing on her lips. “Your wife’s quite something. You better appreciate her,” she said with a slight nod before turning on her heel and walking away.

Now it was just Calliope and Silas.

Silas stepped forward, wrapping Calliope in his arms. He leaned in close, his voice a soft whisper in her ear, “Thank you.”

Calliope looked up at him with her clear, bright eyes. “How did Yara corner you like that?”

Silas met her gaze, understanding that she might have pieced together what had happened. He didn’t bother with an explanation, instead gently ruffling her hair.

Calliope wisely chose not to press further. She didn’t know Silas’s exact intentions, but she trusted he had his reasons, and she was content to follow his lead.

Together, they descended the grand spiral staircase. As they made their way down, the crowd below turned their attention to the striking duo. Silas, in his dark gray suit, stood beside Calliope, the pair looking like they had stepped right out of an elegant comic strip under the twinkling chandelier.
