A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 134

His actions were so natural and affectionate that she couldn't help but feel her cheeks heating up and her heart racing like a wild horse. She looked down, pretending to be engrossed in her slice of cheesecake.

When she finished the last bite, the car had pulled up at the Baker family.

Coincidentally, Gideon and Yvette had just arrived, too. Gideon stepped out of the car, intending to open the door for Yvette, but paused when he saw Silas's car pull up. He was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected Silas and Calliope to show up as well.

His gaze instinctively landed on the car. Silas was the first to step out, his long legs unfolding gracefully. He walked around to the other side and bent down to open the door.

When Calliope stepped out, Silas instinctively placed a hand above her head to prevent her from bumping it.

While watching Silas's considerate gesture, Gideon's eyes narrowed slightly.

Calliope exited the car and exchanged a look with Silas, her cheeks rosy, eyes sparkling like stars.

Gideon stared, realizing he had never seen her like this before. She seemed to have blossomed overnight, radiating a newfound femininity and brilliance. She was like a little sun, impossible to look away from.

The two were engrossed in conversation, leaning close and occasionally sharing a soft laugh.

She didn’t even glance in Gideon’s direction. It was as if he didn’t exist to her at that moment.

Unable to contain himself, Gideon suddenly said, "Uncle Silas!"

Only then did Silas and Calliope turn their attention toward him. Silas gave him a brief nod, maintaining an air of aloofness that made Gideon uneasy. It didn’t bother him in the past, but in front of Calliope, it made him feel stifled.
