A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 167

Lisette was undoubtedly the evening’s star, so even though Calliope made quite the entrance, Zelda quickly helped shift the spotlight back to Lisette.

Since it was Lisette's birthday party, naturally, there were plenty of people who had come bearing gifts.

Monty and Zelda stood by Lisette's side, helping her receive presents.

Calliope and her friends found a corner to sit in for a while. She watched Lisette from afar, a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Meanwhile, Portia and Archie were chattering away about something, and Mavis was off socializing with a group of people, led by Uriah.

While observing the scene, Calliope suddenly felt two shadows looming over her. She glanced up to see Valerian and Ulysses approaching, both looking rather displeased.

“What do you want?” Calliope asked coolly, raising an eyebrow.

“Did you do it on purpose, giving Lisette that dress? You knew you’d outshine her,” Ulysses accused angrily.

“I gave it to her, and she’s not happy? Then she can give it back. I didn’t have to give it to her,” Calliope replied nonchalantly. “It’s my dress. I can wear whatever I please. Why are you being so unreasonable?”

“Calliope, you’re being difficult. It’s Lisette’s birthday. Why steal her thunder?” Ulysses fumed.
