A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 388

"Yep," Damien nodded, his gaze steady on the road ahead.

Calliope turned and returned to her room, feeling a swirl of emotions. She dialed Silas on a video call.

A few minutes later, Gideon appeared in the garden, looking like a drowned rat, soaked to the bone from the sudden downpour.

"Callie, I'm here!"

"Callie, I've come for you!"

"I know I messed up!"

"Just say the word, and I won't go through with the wedding. I'll marry you, only you!"

"Uncle Silas's not around, so you don't have to worry about him. With me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything. Just follow your heart!"

Gideon shouted desperately toward the lit window of the manor, rain streaming down his face. The night air was chilly, but he seemed oblivious, ignoring Damien and the others as he pleaded with Calliope, his voice echoing through the rain. "Callie, I know I was wrong. You can hit me or whatever you want!"

"Just come out, please!"

"Don't be mad. I know you still love me. You only turned to Uncle Silas because you were upset! You can't possibly love him!"
