“She’s incredible!”
The awe in the room was palpable as everyone stared at Calliope, as if they were gazing at something divine. Her skill wasn’t just impressive—it was almost supernatural. Even if they could comprehend her technique, none of them could hope to match her speed; she worked with a practiced ease, as though she could conduct a surgery flawlessly with her eyes closed. It was hard to believe someone so young possessed such world-class expertise.
Because Calliope moved so swiftly, the operation ended ahead of schedule, despite an unexpected complication along the way. When the surgical team finally stepped out of the operating room, Silas was already waiting just outside. He looked like he’d been there for hours, his body tense and his mind wound tight with worry.
Maybe someone wanted to lighten the mood—or perhaps just tease Silas a little—because the lead surgeon at the front deliberately adopted a downcast expression as he exited.
“How did it go?” Silas asked, immediately picking up on the somber look. His heart lurched in his chest. “It wasn’t a success?”
Of course he knew there was always a chance of failure, but he desperately didn’t want that outcome—not for the patient, and not for Calliope. He was painfully aware that, ever since Calliope had lost Hudson Howell and her own grandfather, she’d grown wary of practicing medicine, haunted by the fear of not being good enough, not being strong enough. The last thing he wanted was for this operation to deal her another blow.
The lead surgeon heaved a sigh and said grimly, “Yes, there was an unexpected complication. The patient suffered massive bleeding.”
“We never anticipated her condition would take such a sudden turn,” another doctor chimed in, matching the heavy tone.
Calliope played along as well, dropping her head with a quiet sigh.
Silas looked at her, his heart in his throat. “It… failed?” he asked.
“No one can predict an accident… I tried to prepare myself…” he managed, forcing steadiness into his voice.
He crossed over to Calliope, his tone gentle, his eyes filled with concern. “Callie, don’t blame yourself. This wasn’t your fault. I know you would never have wanted this to happen.”

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 !!!...
