A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 165

Calliope was the epitome of elegance and grace, her gown more stunning than anything Lisette could dream of. Her natural beauty was magnified by the dress, making her look every bit the fairy-tale princess under the sparkling lights.

As she descended, she captured the room's attention, outshining Lisette, who moments ago had been the belle of the ball. Lisette's allure seemed to fade in comparison, making her look almost mundane. Surrounding Calliope were equally captivating individuals, the kind who would stand out in any crowd. Uriah and Archie were impossibly handsome, their presence commanding admiration. Portia and Mavis, with their impeccable backgrounds, exuded an aura that was simply beyond Lisette's reach. Instantly, all eyes were on Calliope and her entourage.

"Wow, she looks like she walked out of a fairy tale!"

"Isn't that Calliope, the eldest daughter of the Jewell family? She's never been one to stand out, right? I don't remember seeing her much at these annual galas."

"Wasn't she considered the black sheep of the Jewell family?"

"Who knows, but she's stunning. That dress is similar to what Lisette is wearing, but she makes it look so much more glamorous!"
