Chapter 465

Fleurโ€™s ears perked up the moment she heard Calliope speak.

โ€œWhat do we need to do? Just tell me, and Iโ€™ll make sure she follows through. Sheโ€™s gotten herself into this mess. If she canโ€™t have a child, Iโ€™ll make sure Gideon divorces her!โ€

Given that theyโ€™d just gotten married, a divorce wouldnโ€™t be ideal for Gideon, so she decided to give it a try. But if Yvette couldnโ€™t have children, a divorce might be the only option.

Thinking about Yvetteโ€™s foolish actions, Fleur grew increasingly irritated. She took a sip of her coffee, her annoyance palpable. โ€œDo you think if Yvette hadnโ€™t taken that nasty spill, sheโ€™d be able to get pregnant now?โ€

Calliope nodded. โ€œIf she had listened to the doctor and dealt with things early on, a bit of rest and care might have been all she needed. Her situation is a bit unique, though. Her body has some issues, so getting pregnant isnโ€™t going to be easy.โ€

But for Calliope, these werenโ€™t insurmountable problems.

Originally, if Yvette took proper care of herself, having a healthy baby wouldnโ€™t have been an issue. Now, things were uncertain. The odds were not in her favor.

โ€œItโ€™s all her own fault!โ€ Fleur grumbled. โ€œShe tried to ruin you and ended up ruining herself. What an idiot!โ€

Calliope was silent for a moment, looking at Fleur thoughtfully. โ€œIf you really want my help, we should have a treatment agreement, and youโ€™ll need to make a video recording. I canโ€™t promise a full recovery, but I can aim for about seventy percent.โ€

โ€œThatโ€™s good enough!โ€ Fleur replied without hesitation. โ€œAgreement, video, whatever you need.โ€

Calliope bobbed her head. โ€œAlright.โ€

A short while later, Fleur hesitated, her voice a bit uncertain. โ€œUm, Callie, about Gideonโ€ฆ can I speak to you about that too?โ€

Calliope had suspected Fleurโ€™s visit wasnโ€™t just about Yvette. It was also about Gideon.

Because of his own actions, Gideon was no longer eligible to inherit the Baker Group. Silas, no doubt, wouldnโ€™t give him another chance.

Fleur didnโ€™t dare approach Silas directly, so she turned to Calliope.

โ€œYou donโ€™t need to say anything. I canโ€™t make decisions on that,โ€ Calliope noted.

โ€œCallie, youโ€™re Silasโ€™s wife. Heโ€™ll listen to you! Iโ€™ve seen how well he treats you. Heโ€™ll definitely listen if you ask him to help!โ€

โ€œGideon has the capability. The fact that Silas considered him shows he has the potential. Honestly, Calista is still too young to handle such responsibilities! I really think Gideon is the better choice.โ€

โ€œI understand Silas is upset because of what happened to you, but Gideon wasnโ€™t involved. It was that dim-witted Yvette attempting to frame you! Gideon is doing his best to prove himself! Callie, please, for the sake of what we once had, help Gideon out! Weโ€™d all be so grateful!โ€

Fleur looked at Calliope with pleading eyes.

โ€œWeโ€™re family, after all. If you help Gideon, we would find ways to repay you. In the future, I promise to treat you well!โ€

Calliope sighed, her expression complicated. She never thought sheโ€™d see the day when Fleur would be the one asking her for a favor.
