Calliope glanced over at Portia.
Portia caught her eye and immediately slipped away.
A few minutes later, the big screen on stage flickered to life.
One by one, Calliope played the evidence she had gathered—emails, photos, surveillance footage—all of it showing everything she had ever done for the Jewell family.
There were also files proving Kermit’s inheritance and will, and documentation of Calliope’s own assets.
She had kept every shred of proof, and now, she calmly explained to everyone where her money came from, how she got it, and why it was hers.
Everyone saw the letter Kermit had left her, too.
Then came the footage of Calliope caring for Kermit during his illness—clips of her at his bedside, holding his hand, doing everything she could.
There were even video statements from the world-renowned doctors who had treated Kermit. Each of them had recorded a message, vouching for Calliope: she had done everything possible to save him, while the rest of the Jewell family had barely lifted a finger.
One after another, the doctors said it: “Without Calliope, Kermit wouldn’t have lived as long as he did. She gave her all.”
The crowd was stunned.
“Oh my God… this is so thorough!”
“Jeez, is that a video from when she was a kid? That’s heartbreaking, I’m about to cry.”
“She was practically abused by the Jewell family. Look at that room—no child should have to live there. Even the housekeepers had it better!”
“And Lisette, all dressed up like a princess, but Calliope was wearing rags. She couldn’t even eat with them!”
“How could they treat her like that? I just want to give little Callie a hug!”
“My heart is breaking for her!”
“How can you play favorites like this? Young Callie didn’t even know who she was. She never understood why they were so cruel.”

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......
