Chapter 306 

What did you mean by that?Valerian snapped with frustration

Calliope chuckled softly, I meant it literally. I’m genuinely impressed. I should learn from Lisette how to say something and have the whole family rally around me.” 

She leaned closer, scrutinizing the group before her. Don’t you think you got a bit carried away earlier?” 

I never said Lisette had to leave the Jewell family, did I? She brought it up herself,” Calliope shrugged. She decided to leave on her own. I didn’t use that as leverage. Whether she leaves or not, I don’t know the Mr. Lopez you’re talking about, and I won’t help.” 

Oh, by the way, I’m already out of the Jewell family whether she leaves. I have no ties with the Jewell family anymore. Do you want me to show you the signed papers again? You’ve all signed it, remember?” 

Calliope rested her chin in her hand, looking innocently at them. I got kicked out of the Jewell family. How could I influence whether Lisette stays or goes? Am I that powerful?” 

Monty and his sons were dumbstruck by her words. It dawned on them that Calliope hadn’t threatened anyone. Lisette had jumped to conclusions, and they’d assumed she was getting bullied. But in reality, that wasn’t the 

case

The four of them exchanged uneasy glances before turning to Lisette. Still, their focus quickly shifted back to Mr. Lopez

Monty tried to persuade Calliope again, but her resolve was unshakeable. She insisted she didn’t know Dante

Despite their skepticism, they had no choice but to accept her word. Besides, Silas was sitting nearby, and his imposing presence kept them from pushing further

Well, it’s time for you gentlemen to leave, if that’s all,Silas said, making it clear they’d overstayed their welcome. “You’re interrupting my wife’s downtime.” 

Monty looked conflicted

Forget it, Dad,” Ulysses said. If she doesn’t help, so be it. The Jewell family has other avenues to explore.” 

Mr. Myers,Monty addressed Silas, clinging to a thread of hope. I am your fatherinlaw, after all. Won’t you reconsider helping us?” 

My wife is no longer part of the Jewell family,” Silas stated coldly. So you’re not my fatherinlaw anymore.Dad, let’s go,” Ulysses urged. We’ll never ask her for anything again. She thinks she can coast through life like this?” 

The group stormed out, seething with anger

Calliope called out after them, Lisette, don’t forget to clean up your mess.” 

Lisette froze, her face flushed with embarrassment, although her lips were pale. She couldn’t believe Calliope had brought up her accident before Silas again. It was mortifying

Calliope, can’t you have your staff take care of it?Ulysses snarled, turning back

Why should my staff handle someone else’s mess?Calliope shrugged, I care about my housekeeper.” 

But don’t you care about Lisette?”
