Chapter 69 When Calliope finally arrived, Archie and Portia were already there, waiting for her in their private booth. As soon as she walked in, smiles spread across all their faces. “About time you showed up! What took you so long?” Portia teased, looking up. “Latecomers buy the first round

Chapter 68 As Monty took in the room around him, it struck him that Callie’s world was lacking in so many ways. Compared to Lisette’s princess-themed bedroom, Callie’s room was downright tiny, furnished with cast- offs and outdated pieces. It was as if everything had been cobbled together as an

Chapter 67 “Equally, you say? Then why don’t you take a look at their rooms? Check out what kind of room Callie sleeps in compared to Lisette’s. And while you’re at it, maybe you should recall how each of their birthdays were celebrated. Oh, and perhaps you should consider how

Chapter 66 “Mom, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have gone to see Mr. Myers for the company p> “Oh, sweetie, this isn’t your fault at all. It’s all on her!” Zelda comforted Lisette, feeling a wave of frustration rising. She rubbed her temples. “She’s really been nothing

Chapter 65 Calliope listened to Zelda’s words, a soft chuckle escaping her lips. “Do you really trust Lisette that much p> “Yes, Lisette would never lie to me. She never has. Calliope, I know you better than anyone. You’re just jealous of the way we treat Lisette, and you’re taking

Chapter 64 Then, she received a message from Wynton. Wynton sent, “Hey Calliope, I’m here to vouch for Mr. Myers. He hasn’t done anything shady behind your back! Check this out, it’s what I saw today outside the Baker Group building! Your sister is really something else, trying to seduce

Chapter 63 Lisette thought she had Silas wrapped around her finger. She figured all men were driven by lust, and she had made her intentions clear. She was even ready to give herself to him. But to her surprise, Silas didn’t budge. He looked at her as if she were

Chapter 62 “Yeah,” Silas nodded. Fagan glanced at Silas, surprised. Mr. Myers had always remarked about how the youngest Lynch boy was smart – but a bit too green. Fagan couldn’t quite figure out what had made Šilas change his mind so suddenly. But that wasn’t really important. Seeing Mr.

Chapter 61 Silas typed, “Hey, you’re getting hitched? And no one thought to tell me? @Callie, honey, what do you think we should gift them p> As soon as Silas commented, his notifications blew up with a flurry of responses from people eager to get his attention. “Hey there, Mr.

Chapter 60 Ever since her rebirth, almost every night was plagued by nightmares, forcing her to relive the darkest and most painful moments of her past. But whenever Šilas was around, an inexplicable calm would settle over her. The next afternoon, Calliope received a call from Fleur while She was

Chapter 59 Calliope glanced at Silas, her heart pounding with fear. She had wandered over out of boredom, drawn by the lively crowd. Plus, she knew befriending these folks could only be beneficial, so she stayed to chat and get acquainted. But she had forgotten that she was the only

Chapter 58 After spending a few days at the Myers Manor and getting to know everyone, Calliope felt a genuine warmth towards these people and was more than happy to hang out with them. What intrigued her the most was Damien’s impressive skills; she had a thing for people who

Chapter 57 Gideon’s face was a masterpiece of conflicting emotions. He glanced at Calliope as if he didn’t recognize her. He had assumed she was going to sweet-talk him, maybe even apologize. After all, she loved him so much, didn’t she? Was she still mad? Did she really just treat

Chapter 56 “Damien, I packed all this food, most of it untouched. Take it back to your buddies, will you? This place has some pretty good grub p> “Thanks, ma’am!” Damien replied, looking genuinely grateful. Damien and Gideon then started loading the bags into the car. Gideon had figured Calliope

Chapter 55 “Yeah, I was just kidding around. You were so tense just now, I almost believed you’d actually cleaned out the company p> Calliope chuckled lightly. “So, what’s it gonna be? Don’t agree? Fine, I’ll head out then p> Just as she was about to stand up, Monty made

Chapter 54 If Calliope married her son, so naturally, she thought she could handle any future daughter-in-law issues with ease. Worst-case scenario, she figured, she could secure her shares and then orchestrate a divorce. After all, it was tough for a woman to find a new partner post-divorce, but someone

Chapter 53 Calliope was really enjoying herself, savoring each bite with a grin that only seemed to grow wider. The rest of the group sat there, their appetites vanishing entirely as they watched her. Once she was finished, Calliope dabbed her mouth with a napkin in a manner that was

Chapter 52 Zelda’s expression was stern as she said, “You and Gideon have been together for years. It’s fine to act up a bit, but once you’ve had your fun, you should really let it go. Gideon’s already apologized, what more do you want p> “Well, he could start by

Chapter 51 Fleur and Gideon wore expressions of utter disbelief. Monty and others couldn’t believe their eyes as they stared at the necklace around Calliope’s neck.
