"Are you going to go greet the Archduke, Lady Juliette?" Casey said with both hands on my window and her head facing me.
In my past life when i went down to go greet Father he completely ignored my greetings and ordered me to give Renata one of my dressed.
Despite the fact Renata can't fit any of my dresses. But i must still go down and greet him or i'll be seen as disrespectful.
I'll also have to pay attention to Renata as she Is the lost oldest daughter of Archduke Cassio.
"Sure, I'll go down, but I have to get ready", I said while placing my feet on the cold but refreshing floor.
The cell I was placed in my past life was rough and dusty. I'm happy to be back in my old room.

I put on a simple long (but tight) dress and headed down to greet Father.
when i reached the bottom steps, Father was waiting at the bottom talking to one of the knights while Renata was attached to Father's side.
"Greetings Father", I said with a grin and slowly approached Father.
Father shot his head towards me and the first words he spoke towards me was "Juliette, Go get one of your dresses so Renata can wear it", He said as he placed his head on Renata's red hair.
Renata has short red hair and brown eyes. She's an exact replica of Father. In my past life I immediately went to go fetch the dress. I won't this time.
"Who is Renata and why do you want me to give her one of my dresses", I said with my hand on my chin.
Father seemed surprised that I didn't automatically obey his command.
"Renata is the eldest daughter of this House. My lost daughter and your older sister." Father said with an annoyed tone.
"My sister... I didn't know I had a older sister Father" I said with a grin. But it's also true. I didn't find about Renata in my past life until this day.
"Well now you do so go get one of your dresses", Father said while showing me what Renata was wearing. She was wearing a dirty and torn up dress with no shoes.
I looked Renata up and down then glared at Father. The only thing me and Renata share is our blood. We don't look the same and we aren't the same size.
Renata is big but she also isn't skinny. I'm on the skinny size and all of my dresses have been made to specifically fit me and only me. (A star for my lovely Seamstress).
"Father, Renata can't fit any of my dresses. Don't you think it would be better for Renata to wear one of the maids dresses".
The entire room gasp as i said Renata should wear a maids outfit.
"Do you really think Renata deserves to be put into a maids outfit. How Shameless of you Juliette". Father said with anger in his tone.
"No Father, I simply think it would be better for Renata to wear a maids outfit as she would be more comfortable. Rather than my dresses since they're too tight for her". I said with a grin.
"Just until you get dresses that will better fit Renata".
The bystanders in the room seemed to agree with my statement and Father had no choice but to agree.
"Right", Father said in defeat. Renata looked at Father in disbelief as if she wanted him to change his mind.
I'm not going to waste my time chasing after Father's affection in this life. I'm going to cozy up to Renata and make it harder for her to plan scheme my back.
