“Enough!” Horasnapped, his voice cutting through the tension in the room. “If you don’t want to help, no
one’s forcing you. You don’t need to go on and on with your explanations.”
“Horatio,” Calliope replied with a smirk, “don’t flatter yourself. I'm not explaining for your sake.”
“Oh, by the way,” she added, her eyes glinting with something unreadable. “Aren't you curious about who can
really heal your legs?”
Horafroze at her words.
“In this world, other than the Miracle Doctor, there's no one else who can cure you,” she continued, a hint of
triumph in her voice. “And there's a secret you don’t know. Aren't you at all curious why Lisette could once heal
you, but now you need the Miracle Doctor? Haven't you ever wondered about that?”
“Was it really Lisette who healed your legs while you were unconscious?” Calliope pressed on. “Even the best
doctors around the globe couldn't help you, yet Lisette managed to? If Lisette is so talented, why isn't she a

Calliope’s words were sharp, cutting through Horatio’s skepticism like a hot knife through butter.
Meanwhile, Lisette’s face had turned as pale as a ghost. “What did Calliope know? Did she realize that it wasn’t
actuallywho had treated Horatio’s legs? This lunatic, could this reunion turn into her stage to reveal
everything, and humiliate me?”
“Calliope, what exactly are you trying to say?” Horaasked, his voice steady, but the uncertainty was clear in
his eyes.
“Patience, Horatio,” Calliope said with a coy smile. “We'll get to the part you're curious about.”
“Oh, and aren't you all curious why I've never liked Lisette?” she continued, her tone turning more mischievous.
“Well then, letshow you something.”
She tapped her phone, and the screen flickered to life with a new video.
The footage showed two little girls. One looked every bit the little princess, while the other seemed to lack that
regal aura.
Near a swing set, one of the girls was happily swinging away. There was another swing nearby, but the other girl
seemed determined to have this one. With a sudden shove, she pushed the girl off the swing.
The fallen girl began to cry, and the other girl immediately joined in, crouching down and wailing louder.
A moment later, a group of brothers rushed into the scene. Before the girl on the ground could say a word, the
other one spoke up through her sobs.
“I'm sorry, sister. This is your swing. | shouldn't have played on it,” she cried, then ran off, leaving the
bewildered girl to face the wrath of her brothers.
The video ended, only to be replaced by another clip featuring the stwo girls.
This time, one girl was holding a stuffed bunny. She noticed the other girl's envious gaze and offered the toy to
her.
“Lisette, do you want to play with it too? We can play together.”

The other girl burst into tears, catching the first girl off guard.
Minutes later, the brothers appeared again, this tscolding the girl with the bunny without asking what had
happened.
“Calliope, why are you bullying Lisette again?”
“Lisette, are you okay?”

“Lisette, what happened?”
“I'm fine,” she sobbed, wiping her tears. “It’s my fault. | shouldn't have touched my sister's bunny. I'm only
adopted, after all.”
The scene faded, leaving behind a room thick with tension and unspoken accusations.
