The room was abuzz with whispers as all eyes turned towards Valerian.
Who would have thought that in this situation, he'd still be blaming his sister? Shouldn't he feel guilty? Shouldn't
he at least show sconcern for her?
Yet, there he was, criticizing her for not presenting evidence sooner.
"Isn't that a bit much?"
"She's his sister, for heaven's sake. Even without evidence, he should trust her a bit."
"Yeah, even if he doesn't believe her completely, he should at least question things."

"Exactly, he believed Lisette without any proof, didn't he?"
"This whole mess is Calliope's fault? Givea break!"
"Poor Calliope, being in the Jewell family must be rough."
The murmurs of sympathy for Calliope grew among the crowd, each person feeling more indignant on her behalf.
It was clear she hadn't done anything wrong, yet her family refused to stand by her.
She had proven her innocence, but now they blamed her for not doing it sooner. With that kind of attitude, they
wouldn't have believed her no matter what evidence she presented.
"My heart goes out to Calliope."
"Yeah, she's had it tough."
"Her own family doesn't trust her. She must have been truly fed up to leave them."
"lI agree."
The crowd's chatter was filled with disbelief and disdain as they glanced at Valerian, it was baffling how he
seemed more inclined to side with his adopted sister, Lisette, rather than his own flesh and blood
Calliope wasn't surprised by Valerian's reaction. She looked at him with a resigned smile. "So, no matter what |
say, I'm in the wrong."
"If you have something to say, just be clear about it!" Valerian retorted.
"I'd love to, but speople just won't accept it, and what can I do about that?" Calliope replied with a light
laugh. "But don't worry, I'm not here for your apologies or anything. I've lost interest in the Jewell family a long
tago. Honestly, you all prefer Lisette as your sister. I'm not trying to take anything from you."

Calliope chuckled softly. "I think I've explained everything. Any more questions?"
She stood and glanced around the room.
"Calliope, don't forgive them. They're not worth it!"
"Yeah, they don't deserve it. Blaming you in this situation is just absurd!"
"It's shocking how they've treated their real daughter. Who would have thought?"
Her classmates rallied around her, casting incredulous looks at Lisette and her supporters.
Calliope remained calm, her gaze sweeping over Valerian and HoraJewell. "Don't worry, there's nothing to
forgive. One, they don't think they've done anything wrong to ask for forgiveness. Two, | stopped caring about
them a long tago. | don't even waste energy on strangers, so there's really nothing to forgive, right?"
Valerian and Horaexchanged looks, a sense of loss creeping into their hearts. There was a flicker of panic, but
their expressions remained stubborn and unmoved.
