A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 877

Silas was quiet for a moment. “But she’s gone now. Lance has to move on with his life. Honestly, I think he should find someone new.”

Calliope glanced over at him.

“Hudson would probably agree with you. But Lance wouldn’t.”

Silas turned to look at her, a curious expression on his face. “If—just hypothetically—if one day I wasn’t around anymore, what would you do?”

“You think you’d find someone else?”

Calliope frowned, a little annoyed. “That’s not going to happen. You’re healthy as a horse.”

“I mean, if something unexpected happened. If I left this world first. I’d want you to find someone who treats you even better.”

“You’re amazing, Silas. Plenty of people would want to be with you, you know?”

He gave her a lopsided grin. “Just promise me, if it ever came to that, you’d let yourself be loved again. Live your life, Callie.”

Now she really frowned, not sure what he was getting at.

Was he planning to leave her? And did he really have to use death as an example?

“So, what, you want me to be with someone else?” she asked, brow furrowed.

“I just want to know you’d be taken care of if I wasn’t here,” Silas said, still smiling softly.

Calliope said nothing, the silence between them suddenly feeling strange and heavy.

Soon enough, they arrived home. Calliope was about to tell him she was tired and wanted to take a shower, when Silas’s phone rang. She glanced over as he loosened his tie and answered.

After just a few words, his face turned serious.

“Okay, got it. I’ll be there right away.”
