Chapter 650 “My friends all keep telling me my skin looks amazing lately. They keep asking where I bought my skincare from! I said you made it yourself! They didn’t even believe me p> Verity rolled her eyes. “Honestly, those dummies have no idea how clever you are p> Calliope
Chapter 649 “I’ll be staying here for a while, and Silas will, too,” Calliope announced, glancing around the living room at her brothers. “You guys don’t mind if Silas crashes here, right?” she asked, her tone hopeful. “He really wants to get to know you all a bit better,” she
Chapter 648 For Julius, she’d picked out a play script, one he’d been wanting for years, and a bracelet. Not just any bracelet, either, but a vintage rosary bead bracelet, the kind you’d find in an exclusive antique shop, worth more than most people’s homes. She’d chosen every gift with
Chapter 647 Ulysses’s face darkened instantly. What Calliope meant was obvious-she was pretty much saying they weren’t her real family, and she wanted to have Christmas Eve dinner with someone else. Just now, she’d made it clear Quentin and the others were more important. Now she was doubling down, saying
Chapter 646 Ulysses frowned, his jaw tightening. “Franco, did you just say we’re not even as good as dogs p> He sounded genuinely offended. “Did I stutter?” Franco shrugged, completely unfazed. “Just calling it like I see it. The only reason you’re still living the good life is because my
Chapter 645 Valerian stared at Calliope, his eyes rimmed red with frustration. He looked like he was about to lose it. “Calliope, are you really going to do this to us p> “We’re your real family. How can you treat outsiders better than your own blood? Don’t you think that’s
Chapter 644 “Exactly. You only get what you give, right p> “No one’s gonna bend over backwards for someone who treats them like dirt p> “Maybe at first, yeah, but if you keep giving and you get nothing back, sooner or later, you’re gonna stop p> “People only keep trying
Chapter 643 The words “her real brothers aren’t even big shots,” hit Valerian and Ulysses like a punch to the gut. Back then, they had no idea that Calliope’s other brothers were actually that impressive. Now, knowing the truth, the whole thing left a pretty bitter taste in their mouths.
Chapter 642 “Why are they all following our boss p> “Man, our boss is just incredible p> The crowd’s chatter grew louder, and a few fans even let out excited squeals. Everyone was gushing about how ridiculously handsome Julius looked, and the other two guys weren’t exactly falling behind in
Chapter 641 “I’m Callie’s real brother-her second oldest, actually. Which pretty much makes me your half-boss, don’t you think p> “If you’re polite to Callie, you should show us the same respect. You only get to eat because of her. Keep up that lousy attitude and I can have Callie
Chapter 640 Just as the commotion started, everyone’s curiosity was piqued. People gathered around with wide eyes, whispering and trading theories like they were at a neighborhood barbecue. “It’s not for me? Oh, come on, it’s obviously for me!” Valerian insisted, grinning. “Franco, you knew about this, didn’t you p>
Chapter 639 Franco hadn’t counted on running into Valerian right then. Of all the luck, Valerian just had to show up at that exact moment, and, of course, he immediately noticed the car. The car was still under its cover, so you couldn’t see the details, but the shape was
Chapter 638 Calliope caught her brothers up on everything that had been going on lately. She told them that the Jewell family wasn’t bothering her anymore, and honestly, she couldn’t care less about them now. Especially after finding out she wasn’t even their biological child, she felt even more detached
Chapter 637 “We’re her real family! How could she possibly treat someone else like her big brother p> Valerian echoed Lisette’s words, sounding genuinely annoyed. Lisette gave a small, smug grin. She knew Valerian was completely on her side now. As for Calliope, well, she wasn’t getting any of their
Chapter 636 At the time, he was away filming on location, so he didn’t make it back in time. But the family portrait was missing someone else, too— Calliope. Staring at the photo, he suddenly understood how Calliope must have felt, like she’d been left out, abandoned. Ulysses felt a
Chapter 635 Ulysses stood off to the side, watching Calliope. He couldn’t help but notice she had three brothers-and not just any brothers. These guys were nothing like him or his own family. They were taller, more charming, looked like they’d just stepped out of a GQ photo shoot. And
Chapter 634 As soon as Ulysses saw Calliope like that, something twisted inside him. He stared at her, disbelief written all over his face. But when he realized the guy standing in front of them was Julius, he looked even more stunned. He could barely get the words out. “Julius?
Chapter 633 After Calliope hit send on her message, she looked up-and there, coming toward her, was Ulysses Jewell. The very second she glanced up, Ulysses spotted her too. His brows knit together in a scowl. He didn’t look happy at all as he strode straight over to her, dragging
Chapter 632 Julius gave his fans a wave and a quick, “Thanks, guys p> Then he made a beeline straight for Calliope. She looked up just in time to see Julius, looking ridiculously handsome, charging toward her like he was on some kind of mission. Before she could react, he
Chapter 631 In the days that followed, Calliope found herself juggling work at the office and running around town for meetings. Every evening, she still made time to check in on Horatio, administering his daily injections. Thankfully, Horatio seemed to be recovering well. Maybe it was because Damien had people
