“Callie, honey, your dad really needs your help here.”
“We know we messed up. I’m sorry, really sorry. I’ll get down on my knees and beg you if that’s what it takes, okay?”
“Please, just give us a break!”
Monty looked at Calliope with hopeful eyes, desperate for her to step in.
Calliope’s beautiful face remained unreadable. She replied, cool as ice, “Mr. Jewell, there’s no blood between us. And whatever bond we might’ve had, you and your family burned through it a long time ago. Even if you all dropped dead right now, I wouldn’t feel a damn thing.”
“So, don’t bother begging me.”
“Go find someone else to help you.”
“And for the record, I haven’t done anything to you. Everything that’s happened to you, you brought on yourselves. What do you even mean, ‘give you a break’?”
Calliope let out a cold, dismissive laugh. “If I was actually out to get you, you wouldn’t even be standing here to beg. You’d be six feet under by now.”
Her eyes were icy, almost frightening.
Monty met her gaze for a second, swallowed hard, and looked away, a chill running down his spine.
Calliope turned and walked into the hospital room.
Inside, she found Ulysses arguing with Zelda.
“Zelda, do you seriously not realize you’re in the wrong here?”
“Get out. You’re not my mom, and I’m not your son. I don’t need you in my life!”
“Uly, have you lost your mind? That witch—she must’ve bribed you, right? What did she give you, huh? Why are you turning your back on your own mother?”
“Uly, I’m your mom! How can you pretend like I don’t exist?”
“Your mom loves you, right?”
“Calliope is poison, she’s the reason our family’s a mess, the reason we’re falling apart! You have to stay away from her!”

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......
