NovelEndChapter 172
Ulysses felt that she was inferior to Lisette in every way, so how could she help him?
He had been riding high these past few years, partly thanks to Calliope. She had sconnections in the
entertainment world and owned her company. Though she rarely made public appearances, she wielded some
influence.
Once upon a time, she thought that as his sister, she ought to help him if she could.
But she didn't see it that way anymore.
Not after the tshe was on the brink of death, desperate for help, and no one came. Not after she died, and
instead of mourning, they acted like her passing was a relief. She was utterly disillusioned with them.
So from now on, she wouldn't lift a finger to help Ulysses.
"What's with your attitude? If it weren't for Lisette pleading, do you think I'd even have this opportunity?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUlysses snapped. "You're just jealous of Lisette. She's a good person, and you can't stand it."
Calliope remained calm, her expression indifferent as she looked at Ulysses. "Then let Lisette pave your way
forward."
She turned her gaze to Lisette, a smirk playing on her lips as she called out, "Lisette, | don't mind giving you the
dress, but don't you think it's a bit inappropriate to claim it's yours?"
"Calliope!" Ulysses' eyes shot daggers at her, full of warning.
Valerian and the others turned their attention toward her, their eyes filled with disapproval. They were signaling
her to keep quiet.
But Calliope wouldn't be silenced. She shrugged and said, "This dress was a gift from K to me. You said you
wanted to wear something by K, and | had it, so | brought it for you. But let's not pretend the credit is yours. Do
you even know K? Have you ever saved K's life?"
"Wow!"
"Dang, this is sspicy !"
"Ms. Calliope's usually so meek and mild. What's gotten into her today?"
"Why does this feel kind of exciting?"
"Wait, did Calliope really give her that dress?"
"It's possible. | remember someone attended Calliope's birthday party on the top floor yesterday, and she wore a
dress K designed. She's wearing another K design today, but it's a different style."
"So, Calliope does have quite a few of K's dresses! K's designs are hard to cby; if she has them, it means
she's got spull!"
"Well, this is interesting. Lisette says
she's K's lifesaver and got a dress designed for her, and Calliope says she gifted the dress and saved K herself! |

"So, whose dress is it?"
"I'd bet it's Lisette's. Calliope doesn't have the best reputation, after all."
The crowd buzzed with speculation. Ssided with Calliope, others with Lisette. Seven placed bets.
Portia and a few others approached, visibly upset even from the edge of the room. They knew the dress was
indeed Calliope's, given to Lisette under pressure from the Jewell family.
Lisette claiming the credit was a bold move they hadn't anticipated.
How could she be so shameless?
And the most outrageous part? The Jewell family knew the truth but chose to back Lisette anyway! "Lisette, have
you no shame? You don't even know K, and you're claiming you saved his life?" Portia burst out.
"|..." Lisette looked down, feigning
hurt. She glanced at Calliope, as if holding back tears, biting her lip before speaking with a choked voice, "Fine,
whatever Callie says, let it be. Let's say this dress is a gift from her
