He said, “Gideon, you brought this all on yourself.”
Gideon remained silent, just staring at Silas.
Ignoring Gideon, Silas turned to Calista. “Calista, take a look at this document.”
He guided Calista to his chair, and then stood beside him, watching as he worked through the files.
Satisfied, he nodded. “Not bad, your ideas are pretty impressive.”
Gideon was completely sidelined, standing there in a daze. He felt as if his whole world was collapsing, like he
was about to lose everything.

She hadn't expected the doctor to actually say there was an issue; she might have difficulty getting pregnant
again.
She thought that was bad enough. But things were about to get worse. Fleur suddenly appeared and overheard
everything the doctor said.
“Doctor, what are you saying? She can’t have children anymore?”
Fleur was nearly hysterical. “Why, why is this happening?”
“There's a problem with her health. This injury affected her uterus, reducing her chances of conceiving
significantly. Even if she does get pregnant, there's a risk of recurrent miscarriages due to poor quality of her
embryos,” the doctor explained truthfully to Fleur.
“Really?” Fleur looked at Yvette in disbelief and slapped her across the face. Then she stormed back to Yvette's

wasting our Gideon's time! You wretch, | should never have let you get close to Gideon!”

“Fleur, please, giveanother chance. | really know | was wrong.”
“Let’s talk when you actually get pregnant!” Fleur turned on her heel and left.
Yvette was left alone in the hospital room, her face etched with bitterness..
Meanwhile, Calliope had arrived at the Jewell Group. She had dressed in a sharp suit, her high heels clicking
confidently, exuding an undeniable presence.
As Calliope entered the company building, multiple heads turned. Many knew about the various affairs
concerning the Jewell family and her. Seeing the usually absent daughter of the Jewell family appear with such
commanding presence was a surprise to many.
Calliope’s lips curved into a poised smile as she walked, greeting people along the way.
She had worked at the Jewell Group for a few days before. Though it wasn’t long, she remembered many
people’s names. So when she acknowledged them with respect, she quickly wo
