Normally when you add an ePub to Calibre it WILL use the metadata from the file unless you tell it not to do so. What makes you think the metadata in the ePub is different to what Calibre is showing?

The other way around is more common in that metadata updated in Calibre has not yet been updated in the ePub. Calibre normally only updates ePub metadata inside the ePub file if the file is exported or a conversion to ePub is run.
