Chapter 254 "You must have been exhausted," Silas murmured, "I wanted to let you sleep a little longer. | know

it's hard for you to fall asleep again once you're awake."

"It's okay to wake me," Calliope said as she exited the car.

Silas followed her, stretching his arms a bit as he did.

now that you're awake, should we... you know, do something?"

Calliope's eyes widened. Just moments ago, she felt sorry for him, but now, not so much. '‘Men,' she thought with

It was of Silas with another woman, their posture suspiciously intimate.
