Calliope had no idea who was behind it all, but she knew the Jewell family’s connections pretty well. And honestly, it just didn’t make sense—she couldn’t imagine anyone with enough pull who’d actually want to help them out of this mess.
Yet, someone had clearly stepped in. The Jewell family had gone through the wringer, and somehow, they came out the other side without a scratch.
This wasn’t the sort of thing that just happened. No ordinary person or group could pull that off for them.
Why were they still standing?
Calliope didn’t really get it. But unlike Portia, she wasn’t furious; her reaction was a bit more level-headed. She wasn’t angry, but a little warning bell went off in her mind.
Given the Jewell family’s reputation, if they’d gotten away with this, what was to stop them from coming after her again? If someone strong enough to save the Jewell family had shown up, this wasn’t just some random act. Whoever it was—they had to know exactly what sort of people the Jewells were. And yet, they helped them anyway. Which meant there had to be a reason.
But what reason? What was their angle? Was it about the Jewells, or was it about her?
At a moment like this, you couldn't help but wonder—especially when it was the Jewell family, the same people who’d tried to ruin her.
Portia wasn’t stupid. After fuming for a minute, she seemed to catch on. She looked up at Calliope, her brow furrowed. “Are they coming after you?”
“The Jewells have a grudge against you, right? They go down because of you, and then—bam!—someone swoops in to help them. The Jewells don’t have much left, so whoever’s helping them probably doesn’t want anything from them. Which means maybe it’s you they’re after.”
“Callie, you think so, too?”
Calliope nodded. “That’s what I’m guessing.”
“Damn it, but who the hell is it?” Portia muttered through gritted teeth. “Should I just march over to the Jewells and ask them myself?”
Her face was thunderous; she was seriously mad.

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......
