NovelEnglishChapter 855
The room erupted with gasps and murmurs from the reporters and fans alike.
"Seriously? Aren't mothers supposed to love their kids? Swomen, even when things go wrong during
childbirth, will beg the doctors to save the baby first!"
"Exactly! Moms are supposed to risk everything for their children. But it's not like Calliope chose to be born
during a difficult labor—how can Zelda blher own child for that?"
"God, that's just awful. How can someone like that even call herself a mother?"
"Poor Calliope, may she rest in peace..."
"Did they even care if she lived or died? You'd think Zelda would want to check on her daughter after all that."
"They didn't even recognize her. Honestly, it's like Zelda never cared about her kid at all."
"She just dumped her in the middle of nowhere and let her fend for herself."
People were starting to feel sorry for Calliope, the girl who'd barely gotten a glimpse of the world before leaving
it, her parents never even bothering to look
her way.
Calliope's gaze was steady as she looked at Monty and Zelda. "You know, | always thought | was your child. |
never understood why you didn't want me, but when | got a little older, | begged my grandpa to letgo back
to my mom and dad."
"My grandpa couldn't say no, so he broughtback."
"| believed you two were my real parents. | thought my brother was really my brother. That's why I tried so hard
to make you all happy."

"All you cared about was Lisette."
"And even before you knew | wasn't your biological daughter, you never treatedkindly."
"Just like Ulysses said, | never spent a single penny of your money."
"You never gaveany allowance. Not once."
"Calliope, stop making things up!" Monty snapped, his anger barely contamed. "You lived in our house for years.
Are you seriously telling everyone here that you never spent a dime? Who's going to believe that?" s
"Yeah, who would believe it?" Calliope shot back, meeting Monty's eyes. "But the thing is, it's pretty tough for me
to prove | never got anything from you if you say you gavemoney, then it should be easy for you to prove it,
right? Allowances, bank transfers-there's always a record, isn't there?"

She looked squarely at Monty. "Mr. Jewell, why don't you show everyone your
bank statements? That should clear things up."
Monty froze, his mind scrambling. He couldn't remember ever giving Calliope any money.
He glanced instinctively at Zelda.
"Oh, what's this? Mr. Jewell can't remember givingan allowance, so now he's looking to Zelda for help!"
"Well, Zelda, go ahead-show us your records, or any proof at all. Prove to
everyone that you actually took care of your daughter."
Calliope curled her lips into a faint smile. The room fell silent.
