"Yeah, get that money back!" Monty couldn’t focus on anything except the company’s dire financial situation.
Money was all he could think about. Nothing else mattered. What mattered was that they desperately needed the cash Kermit had left behind.
And then there were all those assets under Calliope’s name. They hadn’t even uncovered the full extent yet, but what they had found already blew their minds. If they managed to track it all down, it’d probably be even more staggering.
If they got their hands on it, they’d be among the top one percent of Capitalton’s elite. They’d shoot straight to the A-list.
Monty had always dreamed of this moment, and now that it was finally within reach, he wasn’t about to let it slip away.
All those people who used to laugh at him? He’d get the last laugh now.
And those damned board members at the company? He’d make sure they were eating humble pie for the rest of their lives.
Valerian felt more determined than ever after hearing his parents talk.
Lisette clung to Valerian’s arm. “Valerian, I’m with you. All we’re doing is taking back what rightfully belongs to the Jewell family. It’s not like we’re forcing Calliope into anything! We’re just doing what’s right.”
“Of course,” Valerian said coldly. “If she knew she was in the wrong, she would’ve already given everything back to us. The fact that she’s holding on just proves she’s no good.”
...
The press conference went ahead as scheduled.
Valerian, Monty, Zelda, and Lisette all showed up.
Calliope arrived wearing a mask, blending into the crowd with Portia at her side. No one paid them any attention.
“Unbelievable. They actually went through with this press conference? The nerve!” Portia muttered, fuming. “Can’t wait to see them get what’s coming!”

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......
