"Why, I thought, my brother is busy and I am supposed to take care of these two ladies!" she said as she looked at the eunuch with furrowed brows. I moved and stood at the side keeping the sword away.
He looked afraid yet he spoke, "I apologise, but I am just conveying the orders of your majesty, your royal highness." he bowed further and Josephine sighed.
"Tch.. looks like god has listened to your prayers." she said as she moved back and sat on the table. Her aide came running to her and passed her new platter of fruits which she started to munch without further caring about our presence.
We both walked with the eunuch. The whole situation was bizarre. I have never thought things would go like that! Oh lord! Why have I even thought so much!
We walked towards his garden which was the complete opposite of the Josephine chamber. While hers was looking like a battle ground this was looking like a party hall. The garden was well decorated and filled with all types of food. I could see five girls sitting there and enjoying themselves.
But my eyes zoomed on the girl sitting in the centre of them.
She was wearing the same red dress as mine. It was as if one had asked another to make a copy of it.
No matter how I thought it could not be a coincidence at all. So that was why my step mother presented me with such a pretty dress! I was trying to control and bear things! Trying to be a good daughter but no one was taking me seriously and this was fucking tiring!
I looked up above the sky! See, i tried to be a good person, god! But no one was letting me be! I was better like the villain I was in the past!
The ladies who were laughing, suddenly stopped and looked towards us. I was sure that they had noticed my dress! The girl raised a brow and stood up from her seat.
The girl came and stood in front of me and looked at me from face to bottom with a smirk on her face.
"I never knew that the daughter of the duke would have the same choice as us lower nobles. You must have had a hard time in choosing the dress, after all it was a custom made dress yet the copied one. Not many do that these days, you know!"
"I can say the same to you, after all a higher noble like me would never look down and care to know what dress a commoner is going to wear. Tch.. you should have thought about a better idea to look good! Anyone can see who is the original one here and who is the copied one here. After all beauty is not only judged by the dress" I said as I flicked my hair and smirked.
Her face paled as she listened to my words and looked at the growing smirk of her competitors. Though she was telling the truth that she had chosen the dress first, no one would believe as i was the higher noble, i didn't even know if she was noble or not!
"I am not a commoner, i am the daughter or viscount Pipkins, Rebecca Pipkins" she exclaimed as if i cared, as if she was one of the highest noble here.
"So! If I did not know any better, I would have thought that you are the daughter of the emperor or the fiancee of his royal highness, the way you are introducing yourself.
Too much arrogance, huh! Never forget that I am the one above you here not the other way around." She gritted her teeth as nothing was left for her to say, yet she opened her mouth and I was intrigued to see what she was going to say now.
Though I should not, I was enjoying the bantering. I was getting bored being a good girl all the time without even netflix to binge watch tv shows! For fucking sake we did not even have a tv here.
But before she could say anything and the argument turned more heated, we both heard the footsteps and turned back to see the man for whom we all were waiting.
His dark gray eyes were looking at us with bored expressions. As if he was already tired of the discussion which was not yet started.
He was tall. His inky dark hair looked like it was combed by his fingers and swept back away from his face. He had a strong, defined and masculine jawline - it was perfection in her eyes. He just looked too good to be true.
I had never seen eyes as beautiful as his even if I compared all the movie stars of the 21st century or the royal here, but his looks were not enough to hide the flaws he had.
Though he had the stunning looks, they were also as deadly cold as his. He had such killer eyes that could pierce through anyone's soul.
He moved towards us and each step accentuated his muscles. The first two opened buttons of his shirt giving the perfect view of his strong chest at the same time showing his laid back attitude.
I scoffed! What was so special about being handsome! No wonder he could not keep his thing in his pants.
"No one told me that we are having a drama here or else i would have come sooner." he said as he tilted his head and his eyes met mine.
His eyes felt on me and his eyes widened. I looked at him with furrowed brows as he did not move his gaze away.
It felt like he wanted to say something, his eyes have some conflicted emotions but in the next second they were calm and lazy like before.
He walked to us and held Isabella's hand and kissed it with such a seductive smile that she melted right there forgetting her fears completely, her pale face bloomed again.
"It is nice to meet you, pretty lady" he said as he still did not let her hands go and it felt like he wanted to hold many other parts of her body the way he was looking at her with a sultry look.
