In the end, Ulysses still gave the painting to Calliope.
When Calliope walked away carrying the painting, Ulysses let out a big sigh of relief. He was honestly happy, at
least she'd accepted his gift.
He knew he owed her so much from the past. If she was willing to accept what he gave, he'd do his best to make
things right.
Horaglanced at Ulysses and asked, "You got enough cash for that? Did you have to borrow money? How much
are you short? | can spot you."
Horahadn't bid on anything himself, but he also felt like he owed Calliope something.
The difference was, he was a lot more level-headed than Ulysses. He knew he didn't have enough to cover the
painting anyway. It probably cost more than everything he owned.
Ulysses just looked at him and shook his head.
"It's a gift fromto Callie. I'll pay for it myself."
He wanted to make amends on his own; he didn't want help from anyone else.
Seeing Ulysses so determined, Horalet it drop.
Meanwhile, Zelda was fuming. She knew how much that painting was worth. She'd been at the auction herself.
She and Monty had been sitting toward the back, so when Ulysses started bidding, there was nothing they could

Monty honestly couldn't believe it. He hadn't planned on buying anything at the auction, let alone something so
expensive.
And the kicker? Ulysses hadn't bought it for himself. He'd bought it for Calliope.
From the way the two of them had talked, it was clear: Ulysses didn't expect anything from her, not even help for
the Jewell family He'd just given it to her. No strings attached. s
Monty felt like he was about to lose his mind.
The family was in a tough spot financially, and this sort of extravagance was the
last thing they needed. But Ulysses didn't even hesitate. He just went for it, completely reckless.
"Uly, don't you think that's a bit
much?" Monty said, exasperated.
"You're emptying your wallet for her, giving her that painting with no. expectations, and she might not even give
you a second thought! She might not help our family at all!" s
"I'm not giving it to her to ask for anything," Ulysses replied coolly. "I just feel like | owe her. That's all."
He shot a look at Monty and Zelda, but couldn't be bothered to argue. They didn't get it. He just walked away.
Horalet out a sigh and said to

Monty and Zelda both frowned, confused. What was with their sons? Had Calliope put skind of spell on

"Right, what about Lisette?" Zelda said, suddenly anxious.
Lisette was her daughter, after all. She couldn't help but worry.
"Let's go check on her," Monty said, rubbing his brow.
