He was completely frazzled, practically losing his mind.
Now that they'd finally found Calliope, everyone instinctively let out a sigh of relief. They all knew Calliope was
the one who could untangle this mess.
But now, no one was sure what her attitude would be.
"I'm on vacation," Calliope said, glancing up at Monty. "As for why | gave up the shares, well, you already handed
them over to me. | just want to cash out. Is that a problem? | mean, I'm just selling what's mine, right?"
“But shouldn't you have talked it over with us first?" Monty said, exasperated. "What are we supposed to do if
you just go behind our backs like this?"
"You guys never talked things over withbefore, did you?" Calliope shot him a look.
She'd been put through hell by the Jewell family. If the real Calliope had been physically weaker, if she hadn't
had brothers to protect her, who knows what would've happened to her?
The thought left a bitter taste in Calliope's mouth. She'd already died once. If the former Calliope had cared
about her family as much as she did, she would've ended up just as broken.

Zelda couldn't hold back any longer, her tone sharp. "Those shares were a gift from us. Even if you wanted to
sell them, shouldn't you have at least asked if we wanted them first?"
"Did you ever stop to think about us? Or about the company? Calliope, why do you never consider anyone but
yourself?"
It was obvious Zelda was furious, convinced Calliope was being selfish.
Calliope just gave her a cool sideways glance, not even bothering to argue.
Had Zelda ever considered her?
"You always calleda jinx, didn't you?" Calliope looked seriously at Zelda. Well, here | am, just as you wished,
a walking disaster. Why would a jinx ever look out for you?"
Calliope's gaze was unwavering. "A jinx only brings misfortune. Isn't that what you always wanted?"
Zelda was left speechless. Sure, she'd said those things, but did she ever actually want to bring trouble into her
own life?
She stared at Calliope, at a complete loss.
Calliope just shrugged. "Sorry, but the shares are gone. If you want them back, you'll have to buy them."
"How are we supposed to do that? The buyer's not even interested," Monty said, getting frantic.
Lisette spoke up. "Callie, did you do this on purpose? Are you getting revenge on the Jewell family? Do you still
think we wronged you so now you want to destroy the company?"
"Yep," Calliope replied, turning to Lisette

Fear flashed in Lisette's eyes. She backed up a couple of steps, shaken by Julius's words.
Calliope and her crew walked right out of the hotel.

The remaining family members stood frozen.
"What does she mean by that?" Zelda's voice trembled with a bad premonition.
