"Besides, they weren't spreading rumors, they were just repeating what they'd heard," someone said, trying to defend the chatter.
"Calliope, what's your next move?" another voice chimed in.
"Yeah, even if you weren't expelled, you've still got plenty of issues," a third pointed out.
"There are a lot of things you can't deny," someone else added, crossing their arms.
"Lisette might not be as good as you in academics, but she's incredibly kind. Do you think academics is the only way to prove you're better?" a girl in the back questioned.
Calliope looked at them all with a calm demeanor, her expression unreadable.
"I've never claimed I had to be better than her," she replied. "I just think it's time for everyone to see the real her. Remember all those things that happened back in high school? Anyone still recall?"
The crowd murmured. They remembered the rumors: Calliope bullied classmates, smoked, drank, hurt animals...
Someone called out, "Calliope, you aren't trying to say you didn't do all that, are you?"
"No way, you can't argue with facts. Actions speak louder than words," another shot back, shaking their head.
Calliope maintained her composure. "I know the truth speaks for itself. That's why I have some videos to show you."
She tapped a few times on her phone, and the big screen lit up with a series of videos.
The clips started playing, showing someone in a school uniform tormenting a kitten, laughing maniacally at its distress.
"Calliope, isn't that you?" someone gasped.
"You've lost it, Calliope! Are you trying to incriminate yourself?" another voice added, shocked.

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......
