Chapter 791

Ulysses watched Calliope, her movements so sharp and decisive it made him uneasy.

Was it actually possible she had nothing to do with the Jewell family?

Ulysses just couldn't accept it. He didn't think Calliope was telling the truth. She had to be messing with them. Maybe she was just disappointed in the family, trying to cut ties.
