"Auntie, what are you talking about? I just wanted to have a quick word with you about Gideon. Of course, I''m going to see the wedding through peacefully!"
Yvette shot a nce at Calliope, her eyes narrowing. "Someone''sing over. Can we have a chat over here for a moment?"
Before Calliope could respond, Yvette had already grabbed her wrist and was pulling her into the hallway nearby.
Calliope thought to herself, well, it was bound to happen sooner orter.
"Yvette, I know what you''re nning, and I''m telling you, it''s not worth it."
"You think you know what I''m up to?" Yvette''s eyes narrowed further. She was dressed in a striking red evening gown, her heels clicking sharply against the floor, her voice carrying a sharp edge.
"Calliope, you''re married to Ss. What gives you the right toe between me and Gideon! I''m warning you, I won''t let you off the hook! You can''t take Gideon away from me!"
"I''m going to make sure the whole world knows about your wicked ways! With this many people around, imagine if something happened to the baby I''m carrying because of you. How do you think people would see you?"
"I know Gideon might not care much about me, but he does care about this child I''m carrying. And Fleur, she cares a lot about this baby too! If anything happens to the baby because of you, how do you think the Baker family would react?"
Calliope remained calm, "The Baker family wouldn''t think much of it because they''d know your baby was never viable to begin with. Yvette, the embryo you''re carrying isn''t in good shape, is it?"
"Technically, the doctor advised you against keeping the baby, but you did it anyway, just to use it against me, right?"
Calliope''s gaze was steady and unwavering.
"I''ll give you one more chance. If you turn back now and return to the party, I won''t expose what you''re doing. But if you insist on going through with this, you''ll be the one who regrets it."
Yvette paused for a moment, "You figured it out! Of course, you''re the Miracle Doctor, it makes sense you''d see through it!"
"I kept this baby just to use it against you! And I can''t let the Baker family know the baby has problems. But if you cause me to miscarry, that''s a different story! People always sympathize with the victim. I fall now, can you really exin it away to everyone?"
Yvette chuckled softly.
"You''re ying a dangerous game." Calliope''s face remained serene.
"You''re scared, aren''t you? Calliope, you''re scared, haha! Didn''t see thating, did you!" Yvetteughed
again, Thanks to your sister, sh
gave me such a brilliant idea. No one knows my embryo''s in bad shape, only that you, Calliope, are the viin who killed my baby!"
"Hahaha, if they thought you did it for Gideon, do you think Ss would still be fond of you?"
Calliope stood still, watching Yvette''s performance with an impassive expression.
After her outburst, Yvette suddenly changed her tone, feigning panic, "No, Auntie! Auntie, please spare me!"
"Auntie, I''m still carrying Gideon''s child! You can''t do this to me for Gideon''s sake!"
"You''re already married to Ss, and if you do this, both Ss and Gideon will be heartbroken!"
