Chapter 828
"What's the big deal? That was always supposed to belong to the Jewell family! You don't even have the Jewell
last name. Why are you trying to take what's ours?"
Calliope couldn't be bothered with Monty. "I'm not here to argue with you today. The board members should be
arriving soon. I'm here to resign."
Ignoring Monty completely, she headed straight for the conference room.
Monty wanted to stop her, but didn't have the guts.
Valerian marched over, trying to grab her, but Calliope sidestepped him easily. Her eyes locked onto his, so
intense that it made his skin crawl.
"Calliope, you're a fraud! If you don't give back what's rightfully ours, I'll take this public! The whole world will

Calliope shot Valerian a flat look. "Go ahead. Knock yourself out."
With that, she turned and headed for the conference room.
The elevator doors slid open and a handful of senior board members stepped out, chatting as they walked.
One turned to Calliope. "Hey, Chairwoman Callie, what's this meeting about? I just got back and haven't heard a
thing."
"It's about the Jewell family, right? | saw the news yesterday. Those folks are at it again, spreading rumors that
you're not really their daughter!"
"For real? Not their biological child?"
They glanced over at Monty. "lllegitimate? Is that it?"
Monty's face darkened, especially as everyone kept calling Calliope chairwoman like he didn't even exist. Some
didn't know what was going on but those who did were following right after Calliope completely ignoring him. s

"Calliope, what are you playing at this time?"
