Portia was fuming, ranting into the phone at Calliope for a good five minutes.
“This is just outrageous! How can they be so damn petty?”
Calliope chuckled, “Don’t worry about it. They’re the Jewell family, after all. Being shameless is basically their family trademark.”
“Yeah, seriously! They’ve got zero shame!” Portia huffed, “Callie, I mean it. Don’t let their crap get to you. If they want to talk trash, let them. We’re all on your side anyway. Oh, and by the way, I already dragged them on Twitter for you!”
“Mavis and I are recruiting everyone we know to clap back at those trolls. No way the Jewell family can take us on and come out on top!”
Calliope rolled her eyes, half amused, “You guys don’t have to go to all that trouble. It’s really not a big deal. I’ll just clear everything up when they hold their precious press conference.”
“That’s not enough. I’m still pissed! I have to fire back!” Portia snorted, “I’m calling in every favor I’ve got for you, trust me. And that Lisette? That snake? There’s no way I’m letting her off easy.”
Something warm flickered in Calliope’s chest. She smiled, “Thanks.”
They chatted a bit longer before Calliope finally hung up.
She hung around the living room for a while, lost in thought, when someone started banging at the door. She went to answer it and found Uriah on the other side, reeking of whiskey and heartbreak.
“Uriah, what are you doing here?” Calliope eyed him suspiciously, unsure why he’d shown up out of the blue.
“Where’s Silas? I need to talk to him!”
“He’s in the kitchen.” Calliope frowned, stepping aside so Uriah could barge in.
Uriah stormed straight to the kitchen doorway, shouting at Silas, who was busy at the sink.

Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
Why has this not been updated ?? there were 5 more chapters which was released and it has not been updated.. Please do update on regular basis......
