A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 171

Lisette's eyes darkened slightly. With K not being around, no one would believe Calliope anyway. Since everyone was calling her K's savior, she might as well own it.

"Wow, I didn't expect you all to recognize me... I thought after all these years, people would have forgotten. I wanted to keep it low-key, so I'm only wearing this gown now.

After all, K designed it especially for me. I couldn't let it sit in the closet forever, could I?"

Calliope raised an eyebrow, glancing at Lisette, who lied without a hint of guilt.

Many in the crowd praised Lisette, and she basked in their admiration with a beaming smile.

Ulysses stood nearby, catching Calliope's eye. He knew full well that Calliope had given the dress to Lisette, meaning the gown was likely designed for Calliope by K.

Calliope met his gaze.

Then Ulysses shifted his attention back to the people below. "The dress truly belongs to Lisette. She is indeed K's savior."

Calliope muttered, "Unbelievable."

She hadn't expected Ulysses to blatantly lie like that.

"Ulysses, you saw me give the dress to Lisette," she said quietly, only loud enough for him to hear.

She knew they all sided with Lisette but hadn't imagined they'd go that far.

"So what?" Ulysses narrowed his eyes, "You'd better keep your mouth shut!"
