Chapter 149 Didnt we agree youd celebrate your birthday with Lisette ? Ulysses burst out , his face a storm of disapproval .
Lisettes birthday is tomorrow .
You had this grand party tonight .
What do you expect Lisette to think ? Calliope was on the receiving end of his tirade , unable to get a word in edgewise , while Ulysses continued , You went all out , hosting it here in the banquet hall .
Tomorrow , Lisettes party is downstairs .
Are you trying to stir up gossip ? Are you happy only if everyone thinks Lisette cant measure up to you ? he accused .
Youre her sister .
After all these years , havent you got any affection for her ? Calliope stood there , calm and composed , letting Ulysses run out of steam .
When he finally stopped , she said slowly , When did I ever promise to celebrate my birthday with Lisette ? When ? Ulysses shot back coldly .
Isnt that how its always been ? Always been ? Calliope echoed , raising an eyebrow .
Thats what you all assumed .
But did anyone ever bother asking me how I felt about it ? Did anyone ask if I agreed ? Ulysses hesitated , glancing at Valerian and Horatio for support .
It occurred to him that while everyone just assumed it was acceptable , no one had actually consulted Calliope .
They just took it for granted .
Isnt that what sisters do ? Ulysses pressed on stubbornly .
Youre the older one .
Exactly , Calliope , Valerian interrupted , irritation evident in his voice .
Youre the big sister .
Shouldnt you be nicer to Lisette ? Lisettes had a rough life without parents .
Shes never felt secure .
Whats the harm in giving her a little leeway ? Arent the dress youre wearing designed by K ? Where did you get Ks designed dresses ? Get one for Lisette too .
She has party tomorrow and shouldnt be dressed worse than you! Calliope stared at Valerian in disbelief .
You want me to get her a K designed dress? Why not ? Consider it a birthday gift .
If you can get one , you can get another for Lisette , Valerian insisted .
Everyone knows she adores Ks designs but cant get her hands on them .
If you have the means , why not help her out ? Calliopes expression was incredulous , almost amused .
Just because she could , did that mean she had to ? With a slight smirk , she looked at Valerian .

You do think I should get her a K designed dress ? Of course .
Its her favorite ! Valerian replied .
Isnt it reasonable for you to give her a gift ? Fine .
Ill get her a K dress for her birthday tomorrow , Calliope agreed , her words carrying a hint of irony .
Valerian nodded with satisfaction .
Thats more like it , Callie .
We all need to make Lisette feel cherished .
Shes had it tough without parents .
Calliopes eyes held a mocking glint as she looked at Valerian , making him slightly uneasy , though he said nothing more since she had agreed .
Anything else ? Calliope asked , her tone cold .
Just ensure youre early tomorrow .
If youre bringing the dress , Lisette will need time to change into it , Valerian reminded her .
Ill be there early , Calliope assured them , her lips curving into a smile that didnt quite reach her eyes , her gaze frosty as it swept over the three of them .
