DreameNovelChapter 163
At the door, Ulysses glared at Calliope with a face that could sour milk.
"You're here early. Didn't mess around with anything, did you?"
Calliope glanced at her third brother.
She had three older brothers. Horatio, the eldest, was a bit more agreeable, but Ulysses, closest to her age, was
the worst.
Ulysses wore his disdain for her like an old leather jacket, plain for everyone to see. He never acknowledged her
as his sister.
Even when they were out, he'd warmly include Lisette, showering her with attention and pocket money. But
when it cto Calliope, he'd act like she was invisible, even turning a blind eye if someone was giving her a
hard time.

Calliope looked at Ulysses calmly. She handed the dress she was holding to Lisette, standing beside him. Lisette
had her hair done but was still waiting for her dress, clearly anticipating the moment.
"A dress by K. One-of-a-kind design," Calliope told Lisette.
"Is it really designed by K?" Lisette was skeptical about Calliope's intentions but couldn't help the flicker of hope.
In the elite circles of Capitalton, everyone adored K's designs. They were like gold dust, hard to cby and
highly coveted. Wearing a K design would make Lisette the talk of the town.
Lisette's eyes narrowed as she studied Calliope. She didn't trust Calliope entirely but knew she wouldn't deceive
Valerian and the others.
Calliope always seemed to care about family ties. In the past, she had always put up with everything, never
daring to defy them.
"Of course," Calliope said, tilting her head slightly.
"Hand it over!" Ulysses stepped before Lisette, warily watching Calliope as he snatched the dress.
"You better not be up to something. K's design is recognizable at a glance. If there's any issue, Calliope, you
better spill now, or | won't let it slide."
Calliope met his gaze. "It's a K design. You'll see."
Ulysses opened the dress bag right there, inspecting the garment. Every detail fit the bill. He turned to Lisette,
"Lisette, it looks fine to me. What do you think?"
Lisette's eyes lit up. She hadn't seen this particular dress before. Though unfamiliar, it was unmistakably K's
work. The signature mark was there for anyone knowledgeable about K to recognize.

"It really is a K design, and it's not even one that's been circulated! It's gorgeous. You'll stun everyone wearing
this, Lisette!"

Ulysses seemed satisfied and shot a glance at Calliope. "You're smarter than | thought." Calliope looked at him
indifferently. "Is there anything else? If not, I'll be on my way."
"Who said you could leave? If you're
not at the party, people will talk about Lisette," Ulysses said coldly "Just keep a low profile and stick around until
the end. Don't let people notice there's tension between us."

"Our relationship is already strained. Why are you so worried?" Calliope raised an eyebrow.
"I'm not worried about me. I'm
