Chapter 427

"Gideon, as much as I dislike Yvette, it's entirely this woman's fault that she lost the baby!" Fleur fumed, pointing an accusatory finger at Calliope.

"Calliope, how are you going to make up for the loss of my grandson?" she demanded. "You caused the miscarriage. How could you be so heartless? Are you still holding a grudge against me for not treating you well in the past?"

"If she were holding a grudge, you would've been out of the Baker family a long time ago," Silas retorted coldly, defending Calliope. "My wife has put so much effort into organizing this wedding.

The Jansen family members were visibly furious, glaring at Calliope with hostility. "Now that the baby's gone, you'll have to pay up! How much do you think a life is worth?"
