Chapter 244 A hand was everything. And just like that, Upton had shattered Lisette's wrist. That was too much, too cruel.

But they valued their own skin more than their pride. And this was Upton they were dealing with. A man of his stature? He could wipe the Jewell family off the face of the earth with a snap of his fingers. So, instead of blaming him, they turned their fury toward Calliope.
