Chapter 793
"Horatio, letask you something. What's your real opinion about Callie? Do you think she owes us, or do we
owe her?"
Ulysses looked Horadead in the eye, his tone completely serious.
Horahadn't seen that coming. He blinked, a little thrown off.
"Why are you askingthis out of the blue?" he replied, frowning.
"Well... about Callie..." Horahesitated, searching for the right words. "I guess, honestly, we haven't treated her
right. But at the stime, if she just walks away from the company now, it feels a bit harsh."
He sighed. "But, look, she did fix my leg. The shares in the company, | only got those because | traded my leg for
them, in a way. So if she wants to sell her shares, that's her business. It's not like she stole anything. She's just
selling what's hers."
"But, you know, if I'm being selfish, it still bugs me. She didn't think about her family at all. That stings."
Ulysses nodded, like he finally understood.
"So, basically, if she were a stranger, we wouldn't have any reason to complain, right? But because she's our
sister, we just can't accept it when she puts herself first. Is that it?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHoranodded. "I mean, yeah. We're family. | feel like she should help, just because."
"But why is it okay for a stranger to act like that, but not her?" Ulysses pressed. "If a stranger did it, no big deal.
But if it's Callie, suddenly it's not right. Family ties turn into shackles. We use that as an excuse to keep leaning
on her, to take advantage of her, honestly."
He paused. "But look at Lisette. She hasn't really done anything special, but we treat her like a princess. So why
can't we treat Callie the sway?"
Horathought about that. "Because Callie's more capable? She can do more?"
"Exactly. But that's her own doing. We didn't make her who she is. Why is she supposed to pay us back for her
own hard work?"
Ulysses let out a dry laugh, a little bitter. The realization stung.
"Calliope's whole life, she's had this burden strapped to her. The stronger she got, the more we expected out of
her. But did any of us ever actually do anything for her? Did we ever really help her? Everything she's achieved,
she did on her own. It's not like the family had anything to do with it. If anything, she's done plenty for us, and
none of us ever really noticed."
Horatio's brow furrowed. "You
know... you're right. We really haven't

He let out a long breath. "She's the

“So, we're just using her, like always?"

Ulysses looked genuinely disappointed for Callie.
Horastared at him, stunned, like something had finally clicked into place.
"Uly... what's gotten into you?" he asked, bewildered.
