A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging From Dust Novel

Chapter 160 Calliope stumbled upon the news online .

She skimmed through the comments , noting how some people called her a drama queen while others expressed envy .

Of course , some tried to compare her with Lisette , desperately trying to pit them against each other .

Upon seeing the negative remarks , Portia went ballistic in their group chat of four .

Archie joined in with Portia , adding fuel to the fire .

Mavis , however , remained relatively calm , advising them to stop .

She assured them that everyone would realize just how incredible Callie was one day .

But Calliope wasnt particularly bothered by the insults .

People can say what they want , she thought .

Their words dont affect me .

Her mind was more occupied with the thought of Lisettes birthday party that evening .

She decided she had to dress to impress , even if it meant outshining Lisette .

Every year , Lisette would steal the spotlight with her dazzling outfits , while Calliopes mother , Zelda , insisted she keep it low key .

As a result , they never seemed like they were celebrating together .

It was like they werent even sisters .

Zelda would parade Lisette around and introduce her to everyone , while Calliope was often left to linger in the corners and told to stay quiet so she wouldnt reveal her lack of worldly experience .

Sometimes , Zelda would proudly have Lisette perform some song or display her artistic talents .

As a child , Calliope had wanted to shine , too , but Zelda always dismissed her .

Youre just not good enough , Zelda would say .

Dont embarrass us .

In Zeldas eyes , Lisette was the epitome of excellence , the one to bring pride to the family .

Calliope narrowed her eyes .

If they didnt want her to be the belle of the ball , shed do exactly that outshine Lisette .

She no longer cared about what that family thought of her .

She could do as she pleased .

Calliope smirked .

She had planned to have someone prepare a dress for her , but to her surprise , Silas had already taken care of it .

Fagan delivered a dress to her , complete with matching jewelry .

Mrs.

Myers , heres the stylists number .

Call him when youre ready , and hell come and get you all dolled up .

Oh , and Mr.

Myers has some business to attend to later , so he might not make it to the party on time .

You can head over first .

He mentioned you could take Damien and the others with you .

Theyll keep you safe .

Calliope nodded .

Got it .

Let him know its no big deal if he cant make it .

Calliope understood that a party like Lisettes wasnt prestigious enough for someone like Silas .

So , he didnt need to be there .

She would make a statement , and dragging Silas along wasnt necessary .

After Fagan left , Calliope examined the dress .

It was another creation by the famous designer K.

It was not quite the same style as the one from yesterday , but equally eye catching and luxurious , and the fabric screamed opulence .

Ordinary dresses would pale in comparison to this masterpiece .

Calliope was thoroughly pleased with it .

She didnt need to worry about finding anything else .

Meanwhile , Lisette was surrounded by her three brothers .

She asked eagerly , Is it true , guys ? I get to wear a dress by K , too ? Yep , weve convinced Callie , Valerian said with a fond smile .

She agreed to gift you one .

With Silass resources , getting a K dress is a breeze , so Callie had no problem with it , 1/1
