Chapter 115 It was a typical Monday, and Kirin Fondue was bustling with the usual crowd. Calliope was helping out by serving dishes, and as she approached the table by the window, she noticed Lisette sitting there. Her brow furrowed slightly, but she didn’t let it show as she set
Chapter 114 She was naturally beautiful, and under the glow of the chandelier, her eyes sparkled like she was carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. Silas looked at her and felt his heart melt instantly. “I’m not mad,” he said. “Then why have you been in such
Chapter 113 “When that explosion happened years ago, I was in total shock. I wanted to save you, but someone held me back. Later, Callie saved you, but then she left, and I went with you to the hospital. I was so confused back then, scared out of my mind.
Chapter 112 Valerian watched Calliope with hopeful eyes. Calliope gently brushed his hand away, her beautiful face calm and distant. “What’s the point now? Does she need my forgiveness p> Valerian furrowed his brow, sensing the disappointment in her gaze. When he first revealed the truth, Calliope had felt a
Chapter 111 Calliope glanced at Valerian with surprise and weariness. She had told him countless times that she was the one who had saved his life, not Lisette. But he had always dismissed her words, insisting Lisette was his savior. He accused Calliope of being manipulative and trying to steal
Chapter 110 Calliope stood there, her eyes twinkling with a mix of mischief and sincerity. “I’m fine,” she insisted. “I wouldn’t have stepped in to help if I thought I was in any real danger. I would have done the same for anyone. Oh, and here’s a little secret for
Chapter 109 “Nigel, you better stop dreaming,” Silas muttered, his tone cold as glanced at Nigel. With Calliope’s hand firmly in his, he headed for the door. “Ms. Jewell, I’ll take care of what you asked me to do,” Nigel called out, craning his neck for effect. “Let’s grab a
Chapter 108 “Make sure your boss doesn’t forget the favor p> “I know, I know,” Wade nodded eagerly, glancing over at Calliope. He hadn’t noticed before, but now he saw she was injured too. “Ms. Jewell, how bad is it? Should I get one of the doctors here to take
Chapter 107 Valerian looked at Lisette as if she were a stranger. He gently pushed her away, offering a strained smile. “Callie might’ve gotten hurt. I’m heading to the hospital to check on her. You should head home p> “What happened to her? I want to go to the hospital,
Chapter 106 Silas watched, his emotions a tangled mess, as his wife did the unthinkable-she saved his arch- nemesis. “Mr. Myers, what’s going on with Mrs. Myers?” Fagan couldn’t hide his surprise. Everyone knew Silas and Nigel were sworn enemies, and seeing Calliope save Nigel stirred up a cocktail of
Chapter 105 “What is she doing p> People noticed Calliope stepping out from the crowd, heading straight towards the thick smoke. “Is she going to save Nigel p> “Who is this woman? Nigel’s girlfriend p> “Is she nuts? She could get herself killed p> “Nobody knows what’s happening with Nigel.
Chapter 104 “I won’t miss it!” Portia exclaimed, her excitement bubbling over. Calliope stood beside Portia, glued to the massive screen showing the race. The competition was intense, the kind of action that had everyone on their feet, cheering and waving flags. Calliope’s eyes were on one particular car, her
Chapter 103 “Mrs. Myers’s older brother isn’t much of a brother. I mean, how could he only stand by and watch?” Fagan fumed, pacing back and forth. “She’s his sister, for Pete’s sake! And he just let her get bullied? And that foster girl is a real piece of work,
Chapter 102 “I just think you dress too provocatively. Good girls shouldn’t dress like that p> Calliope chuckled, suddenly stepping forward and grabbing Lisette by the arm. “You’re right. I dress provocatively, and the bad guys might come after me. So, you dress like a manipulative little snake, and if
Chapter 101 Beads of sweat glistened on his forehead. His shirt was soaked through with cold sweat, but the tattooed guy didn’t have the strength to deal with Calliope. His face twisted with discomfort, and he asked his buddies for help. “It hurts, it hurts! Hurry up. Help me!” “Huh?”
Chapter 100 Portia glanced at the man with irritation. “Dude, are you deaf? Stop bothering us, and let us watch the game in peace. “Who asked you to speak, you little brat?” The man shot Portia a nasty look. “Grab her, too p> “What do you think you’re doing?” Portia’s
Chapter 99 The racing event was buzzing when Portia arrived, dressed to the nines in an outfit that screamed ‘party girl.’ She was practically bouncing with enthusiasm. “I’ve heard tonight’s race is going to be wild! It’s been ages since I last watched one. Do you think Lance will take
Chapter 98 ‘Silas wouldn’t give me a hard time, right?’ Wynton thought, feeling a pang of apprehension just looking at him. Silas cleared his throat, his voice smooth and slightly amused. “I hear you’re quite the ladies’ man, switching girlfriends every few weeks, huh p> Wynton’s eyes widened in surprise.
Chapter 97 “Who got on your nerves today?” Uriah asked, lounging casually on the corner of Silas’s desk, a steaming mug of coffee in hand. “Come on, Mr. Myers, who would dare upset the great you?” he teased, grinning. Silas shot him a glance, not in the mood for banter.
Chapter 96 Even though she could handle it, Calliope wasn’t sure what Silas was thinking. In front of the Baker family, he, of course, said he wanted kids. But deep down, she figured there was another woman in his heart. If there were someone he loved, how could he have
