Chapter 283
“Does she have that much strength?”
Despite their constant ribbing of Calliope, the Jewell brothers were glued to the livestream. Their jaws practically
hit the floor when they saw the footage.
Calliope had slapped a tiger and then clamped its mouth shut. Instinctively, all three brothers touched their faces
as if feeling the ghost of a slap.
Calliope had never laid a finger on them, but seeing this, they realized if she ever got mad, none of them would
stand a chance.
“All brawn and no brain. What good is that?” Ulysses muttered, furrowing his brow. He felt a nagging unease, but
tried to keep his cool.

“She'll never be like Lisette. What does a girl need that kind of strength for anyway?” Horaechoed, his own
anxiety creeping in.
“Have, um, have we underestimated her?” Valerian wondered. They had no idea Calliope was capable of all this.
Hadn't it been the live streaming, they wouldn't have known about her talents or incredible strength.
As her brothers, were they failing her by not knowing her better?
Valerian frowned. “Is it really our fault for not knowing her if she never tells us anything? Unlike Lisette, who's an
open book and always lets us know what she needs.”
“Exactly. We're not to blame,” Ulysses nodded in agreement.
Horapaused, a flicker of doubt crossing his face. He never quite understood why Calliope was so eager to
distance herself from the Jewell family.
“Horatio, stop worrying about her. Focus on yourself and Lisette,” Valerian insisted. “She knew where the Miracle
Doctor was but refused to tell us or help you and Lisette. She's jealous of how we treat Lisette. But what has she
ever done for us?”
Horanodded slowly, frowning. “You're right. She's always competing with Lisette for our attention. As the
older sister, she should care for Lisette like we do.”
Meanwhile, Calliope continued her gwith the tiger and kept its mouth shut until it got tired. When the tiger
attempted to open its mouth again, she clamped it shut again.
After a few rounds, Calliope seemed to enjoy herself. She released and gripped the tiger's mouth repeatedly until
the tiger made an odd noise, as if even it was shocked by the situation.
Once the tiger was too stunned to move, Calliope let go. With a commanding gaze, she ordered, “Lie down!”
She pointed to the ground.
Seemingly intimidated, the tiger hesitated before slumping back into its usual sleeping spot.

Satisfied, Calliope nodded, then strolled over and sat on the tiger as if it were a chair.
The tiger shot her a disgruntled look until it noticed her raising her hand again. Instantly, it resigned itself to
being her cushion.
Calliope yawned and called over to Yara, “Tellwhen time’s up, will you?”
Yara just stared, speechless.
It was clear to everyone now: even her tiger was afraid of her. At this point, it didn’t matter how much tshe
gave her. The tiger wouldn't dare attack Calliope.
“I swear, you could lock them up together all night, and it'd still be the same!”

“Calliope’s unreal! Who would have slapped a tiger like that?”
