Chapter 334

The classmates who had followed Lisette were immediately on edge.

“Calliope, are you doing this on purpose? You must’ve noticed Lisette coming over, so why are you ignoring her?”

“Yeah, Calliope. Can’t you see Lisette wants to talk to you?”

Calliope took another bite of her sandwich, finally turning around slowly.

“Do you guys have a different anatomy or something? Eyes on the back of your heads? How was I supposed to see her standing behind me?”

“Calliope, you said not to call you sis, so I won’t. But there’s something I need your help with! I know you don’t want to, but I wouldn’t be asking you if I weren’t desperate!”

“Horatio’s legs are acting up again, and you know it. I’m begging you. Please help Horatio! He needs you, and he’s your brother too, isn’t he?”

“Calliope, I’m pleading with you. If it’s because of me, I’ll leave the Jewell family and disappear from your sight!” Lisette suddenly dropped to her knees before Callie. She looked up at Callie earnestly. “You know where the Miracle Doctor is. Please ask around a bit for us. It’s not much for you. Do you have to do this? Do you realize Horatio might never walk again if you don’t help? You’ll be ruining his life!”

Calliope sighed. “Can’t you eat quietly?”

“With how Horatio is doing, I can barely eat! How can you?” Lisette’s eyes were red as she rubbed them, “I just feel so bad for him!”

“Oh,” Calliope shrugged, “Well, I can eat just fine.” She turned away, ignored Lisette, and continued eating her salad.

Lisette was stunned, still kneeling, looking pitifully at Calliope.

“Calliope, aren’t you being too heartless?”

“Lisette’s on her knees begging you, and that is your response?”

“You’re really disgusting!”

“Are you even human?”

“She’s just a cold fish!”

“Poor Lisette, she’s kneeling, and Calliope just ignores her!”

“Lisette’s only doing this for her brother, who is also Calliope’s brother!”

“No wonder the Jewell family can’t stand Calliope. What kind of attitude is that?”

The classmates around them stood up, shouting angrily at Calliope.

At that moment, a stern voice came from the doorway.

“Callie, have you lost your mind? Why do you always have to bully Lisette wherever you go?”

Valerian’s voice boomed as he stormed over to Callie, raising his arm to slap Calliope.

Calliope tilted her head slightly, and his hand swished past her ear, missing her face and striking the chair instead.

Valerian winced in pain, gripping his hand.

Behind him, Horatio wheeled himself in. He rushed to help Lisette up.

“Lisette, get up. You don’t need to beg her! If she doesn’t want to help, fine. I refuse to believe we can’t find the Miracle Doctor!”

“But, Horatio, I’m worried. I only want you to be able to walk again!” Lisette bit her lip, on the verge of tears. “I thought Calliope would help. After all, she’s your sister!”
