Chapter 346
After all, Lisette was an adopted daughter, while Calliope was the epitof a silver spoon heiress.
But they both had it all wrong. For a moment, the two of them were utterly dumbfounded, not knowing what to
say.
Lisette felt her world shattering around her. All the images she had carefully crafted for herself over the years
seemed to crumble in an instant.
She looked around in panic, desperately wanting to flee. The room was filled with voices accusing her.
Meanwhile, Calliope sat calmly on a chair on stage, unruffled from start to finish. She spoke slowly and
confidently, "So, how does everyone feel after watching the video? And mind you, this is just the tip of the
iceberg. There's a little more I'd like to show you all."
"Oh, and Lisette, brace yourself. Your little rumor mill might just land you in shot water!"
"What rumors? | didn't spread any rumors!" Lisette retorted defiantly. "Calliope, | don't know how you concocted
these doctored videos, but do you really think everyone's going to buy this? Clearly, these are all fake videos!"
"Really?" Calliope replied coolly. "Why don't you ask everyone here if they believe it or not? Anyone with a good
eye can see the truth."

Lisette's face flushed with anger. It was clear that no one believed her anymore.
Calliope continued, "As for the recent buzz aboutonline, you might want to take another look at the trending
topics. You'll find something new."
"What's new? What surprise does Calliope have for us now?"
"I never imagined Lisette could be like that."
"This is crazy!"
Everyone started fiddling with their phones to check the trending topics Calliope mentioned.
What they found left them all stunned. Many of the people who picked up Calliope from school had their
identities revealed.
Nobel laureates, leading medical experts...
Even retired national heroes, and decorated generals...
Every name
was
a household one!
These individuals cforward to clarify things, with ssaying they were collaborating with Calliope on
academic research, others
consulting her for medical advice, all backed by photos.
They also vowed to track down the rumor-mongers and teach them a lesson.
"Holy cow... What's Calliope's real story?"
"I remember now, those people wouldn't just be involved in anything shady!"
"Good grief, I've got goosebumps. National heroes, involved with Calliope? What were we thinking, these are all
big shots!"
"And the evidence is solid, it's all about medical consultations and research!"
"Sof it even involves national

real identity, quietly working on such major things?"
"Who is this rocket scientist?"
"When the rocket launched, Calliope really was picked up. Did she actually take part in that?"
"A big shot, really?"
"So, a big shot was right among us and we all misunderstood her?"
"Wow, we should be bowing down to Calliope to apologize!"
Calliope glanced over at Lisette, who was frantically checking her phone for this information.
Her legs nearly gave out beneath
her, and she almost collapsed to the
floor. She swallowed hard, realizing
she'd never bothered to check the backgrounds of these people when she was bad-mouthing Calliope.
Who would have thought these people were such heavyweights!
