MainNovelValerian was fuming. "Calliope is out of her mind, I swear." "What's she even trying to do?" Ulysses asked, anxious. "Isn't she running the company? Is she planning to quit? Just walk away and leave us hanging?" Lisette glanced around at everyone, hesitating. "Honestly, I get the feeling... she's kind of an impostor." "Impostor?" The three brothers turned to her in unison.
"Yeah, like... pretending to be the real Callie," Lisette said. "Haven't you noticed? She doesn't look a thing like Mom and Dad, or any of our brothers." "All the brothers have at least a bit of Mom or Dad in them, but Callie? She's completely different." "I mean, sure, genetics are weird, but you can't get that different, can you?" "What if she's not the real Callie?" "Then it would make sense why she doesn't care about the Jewell family, or any of us, wouldn't it?" Lisette peeked up at her relatives, gauging their reactions.

"But Lisette has a point," Valerian admitted. "She's so harsh sometimes, and honestly, she never really fit in, not in looks, not in personality. She's always been different." "Grandpa raised her from day one," Ulysses shook his head. "No way he would've switched her out, not after all these years." "It's just a theory," Lisette muttered, seeing how unconvinced everyone was. But she was determined, she'd find proof one way or another.
"Regardless, what she's doing now- is just crossing the line," Valerian said, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"ReaDor not, she's about to make us lose everything we've worked for." "She probably thinks we've never treated her right," Ulysses said quietly, eyes downcast.
"And honestly, looking at where she is now, she doesn't need us. She's got the power. She has no reason to help." "She's got every right to walk away," he added, voice small. "Guess her heart's just... frozen over." He used to resent Calliope more than anyone. But now that she was slipping away for real, he couldn't help but rethink everything. The more he thought about it, the more he realized how wrong they'd been.
He regretted every moment he'd treated her badly. Now, Calliope felt like someone they could never reach again.

"We haven't been that bad to her recently," Valerian protested, his brow furrowed. "She's always picking on Lisette! That's why we can't stand her. If she'd just make peace with Lisette, maybe we could all get along."
"We even invited her for Christmas dinner, but she chose to spend it with ut she chose the other brothers. What could we do?"
"She thinks she's so great now," Zelda scoffed. "I told you!! told you, nothing! I good ever happens when she's around. We should've never begged for her help in the first place."
"But she did fix Horatio's leg," Ulysses said quietly, glancing over at Horatio.
