Valerian and his brothers were left dumbfounded, standing there silently.
"Callie, if you regret it, say so. There's no need to pretend," Lisette said softly. "Even if you've been harsh, you're still part of the Jewell family."
"Harsh?" Calliope glanced at Lisette. "And who asked for your opinion, Lisette? Family? I'm not your sister, and you're not my sister!"
"Callie," Lisette's voice trembled as tears welled up in her eyes. "I was trying to be nice. Why do you always treat me like this? Am I that unbearable to you? I only want what's best for you!
You've always been jealous of me, trying to sabotage me, and I've never done anything to you. You chose to leave the Jewell family. I never forced you. Do you want me to leave the Jewell family so you can finally be happy?"
Lisette's eyes turned red, and her brothers felt a pang of sympathy.
"Calliope, enough is enough!" Ulysses snapped, standing up in frustration. "What did Lisette ever do to you? She's always looking out for you, yet you keep attacking her!"
"Callie, it's this kind of behavior that makes you so difficult to be around!" Ulysses said, trying to comfort Lisette.
"Callie, Lisette has always spoken well of you. You're being too harsh," Horatio added, his voice more measured. "I don't like you acting this way, either."
"That's just perfect because I don't need your approval," Calliope said coldly. "Don't worry about me. My life had only bettered after leaving you, and I never plan to return."
"I came over to tell you I sent something your way," she added. "You'll see it when you get home. So don't accuse me of taking what's yours."
After that, Calliope turned and walked away, not wasting another word or a backward glance, as if they meant nothing to her.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
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......
