A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust novel Chapter 173

"Wow, poor Lisette!"

"Calliope's making things up!"

"Exactly. Lisette already said the dress is hers, and Calliope's trying to steal her spotlight by claiming she gifted it!"

"That's so shameless!"

"Our hearts go out to Lisette!"

"No doubt about it. The dress belongs to Lisette. She's not the type to lie!"

A chorus of voices rose in support of Lisette.

Portia clenched her fists in frustration.

Lisette stood on the stage, her voice soft and sweet. "It's my birthday today, and I don't want to upset anyone. Let's leave it at that. It doesn't matter to me if the credit goes to Callie. She's my sister, after all. If she wants the dress, I'd gladly give it, let alone a title for saving someone."

She smiled, casting a sidelong glance at Calliope, a hint of triumph in her eyes. She knew just a bit of play-acting was enough to sway everyone in her favor.

Calliope was at a loss now, with no one to believe her.

It had always been like this. After all, she'd never had a good reputation and was disliked from a young age.

Calliope looked at Lisette, a faint smile on her lips. "I didn't realize you were so generous. Is there anything I want that you wouldn't give me?"

"Callie, what could you possibly want that I wouldn't give you?" Lisette pursed her lips. "Whatever you desire, I'll fulfill it for you."

"Wow, what an amazing sister!"

"Yeah, she'll do anything her sister asks!"
