Chapter 65 Calliope listened to Zeldas words , a soft chuckle escaping her lips .
Do you really trust Lisette that much ? Yes , Lisette would never lie to me .
She never has .
Calliope , I know you better than anyone .
Youre just jealous of the way we treat Lisette , and youre taking it out on her .
You need to have Silas take down that sign , apologize to Lisette and admit to everyone that this was your fault ! Or else , Im done with you as my daughter ! Zeldas tone left no room for argument .
As if you ever truly saw me as your daughter , Calliope smiled lightly .
Go ahead , disown me .
Last time I checked , being your daughter doesnt come with a trust fund .
With a decisive click , Calliope ended the call .
Sitting on her living room couch , Zelda stared at her phone in disbelief .
Her chest heaved with indignation , feeling like she was about to explode from anger .
This is outrageous ! How can she be so ill mannered ! If we hadnt done a DNA test , I mightve doubted shes my biological daughter .
Zeldas face was a stormy shade of red as she took a few deep breaths .
The housekeeper , who had been observing Zelda from a respectful distance , spoke gently , Maam , maybe you should have a heart to heart with Callie .
After all , mothers and daughters should try to get along .
I gave her the chance to get along , but did she take it ? Zelda retorted , her face still flushed with anger .
Youve been with our family for over two decades , longer than Callie .
You know what shes like , dont you ? Lisette is so well behaved ; Callie couldnt learn even a fraction of that .

Shes just like the bad luck charm people talk about .
The housekeeper frowned , her lips parting as if to speak , but the words didnt come .
Every time Zelda criticized Calliope and she tried to defend her , Zelda would erupt , unwilling to hear a single positive word about her .
There were things she had longed to say.
Callie was just misunderstood .
She wasnt the problem ; it was Lisette who kept setting her up , yet Mr.
and Mrs.
Jewell , along with their three sons , inexplicably trusted Lisette .
Nobody ever believed Callie .
She had wanted to find the right moment to talk to the family about it , but every time the subject arose , Zeldas temper flared .
Because she had always believed Lisette to be a blessing .
But the housekeeper suspected Lisette was more of a curse .
Since Lisette had come into the Jewell family , it was as if everyone had fallen under a spell … Callie , the real daughter , had suffered so much .
It was unfortunate that she didnt have the standing to change anything .
Callie had even asked her not to intervene , fearing she might lose her job .
She truly felt for Callie .
Despite everything , Callie was kind to everyone , even the staff , unlike Lisette , who wore a façade of sweetness while acting harshly behind the scenes .
It was a pity that nobody in the Jewell family realized how wonderful Callie truly was .
The housekeeper sighed and returned to her chores , keeping her thoughts to herself , 1/2 Chapter 65 Lisette descended the stairs , her face a picture of distress .
Tears brimming in her eyes , she looked at Zelda .
Mom , did you talk to Callie ? I dont understand why she has it out for me .
I only wanted to discuss some business with Mr.
Myers , but Callie seems determined to embarrass me .
And its not just my reputation at stake ; its the reputation of our entire family .
