Athena ate some ube pie back in her spaceworld to calm her horrible mood. Anger and suffocation kept blocking her vision all morning, and arguing with people she did not know deeply were not good.
When Athena finally calmed down, she continued with the contact tracing and collected some information about the history of the Capital star.
"Was the old Athena's soul still attached to the body I occupied?"
She doesn't have proof, though.
There were few books within the original Athena's room in the interstellar villa. She gathered them and put them inside her spaceworld. She picked a few to learn the original owner's habits and reviewed lifestyle trends within the interstellar age.
She also familiarized herself with all of the governing politicians and the upper-class members of the Capital star to avoid offending more people.
Athena was not in a hurry to learn, but the way of living here made her feel a worrying amount of danger. She was no longer the queen who could cover the sky even when it fell. And the original owner, Athena, was so used to wearing the vase crown.
"A person with no culture, uneducated, plastic, and talentless. She even decided to jump into deep waters to find trouble for herself. But she achieved none of her goals, while her parents, who divorced early, lived their lives happily."
On the other end of the line, Lian Wu was berating the person and got lost.
Athena conversed with him earlier, so that's accurate, but why did he sense that something wasn't right? Athena ought to be cursing at him.
"But what made her so composed, and what attitude does her instruction have?"
Lian Wu muttered a low-pitched expletive as he scolded, "Pretend to be a queen, but too useless in reality! It's poor luck for eight lifetimes to receive this dreadful star."
Lian Wu promptly took a space cab to the company to clean up Athena's mess.
While Athena was in the villa, she curiously observed something novel and unusual things that she had never seen before.
The original owner's eccentric attitude causes her to appreciate outrageous clothing. Even the closet contains some eye-catching, sparkly dresses, which are nothing to be proud of, and it disgusts her.
"Reminder!"
"Alert!"
"Alert!"
"Alert!"
"The young master's classes are about to end. Please take time to say hello!"
Athena was taken aback by her villa's sudden notice. The young son abandoned by his parents had his classes ending in a while. And it's been a long time since the original owner saw her son.
"I should pick him up and spend more time bonding."
After an extended search, Athena finally gave up and put on a white-fitting gown. The back has a v-cut opening covered in lace, and the front has silver-colored flower embroidery. The dress emphasized the curves of Athena's body and her long straight legs.
The original owner's height before she died was only 170 cm. but after she drank body cleansing and refining pills, she grew up to 188 cm. which is taller than the average height of interstellar women.
She paired it with two-inches high white sandals and a white purse.
Her hair draped on her back, and the curls accentuated her powerful momentum.
Athena rummaged for accessories from her spaceworld, brought them out of the mansion, and filled the wardrobe within her villa.
Then she fiddled with technology and rearranged her room in the interstellar villa. The theme changed from girlish to natural and cool colors.
She also added many comforting things and changed some of the existing furniture. Athena also replaced the bed's artificial mattress, bedsheets, pillows, and blankets, which were far inferior to the things of modern times.
The placement of the things within her room also changed based on Feng Shui arrangement patterns. And thankfully, she had the help of technological tools to make her work easy.
Athena gathered all the unacceptable clothing aesthetics and dumped them into her spaceworld.
She also modified enough clothes from the modern time to fill her interstellar closet.
Time passed by quickly, and it almost consumed her day.
Athena picked up her purse and went downstairs.
In the kitchen, the people were preparing food.
They instantly exclaimed, "Miss dinner is almost ready," after hearing the sound of Athena's footsteps.
Only the Capital Star giants have the privilege of hiring chefs in the kitchen.
Athena gently furrowed her brows.
She remembered that the original owner had been married and that the narcotics her stepmother supplied had allowed her to get inside the monarch's home. Her nominal spouse instructed her to maintain their connection, hidden out of rage.
But she was recognized by the occupants of this villa as ordinary. They don't call her Mrs.; they only refer to her as Miss, and it appears that the original owner is genuinely unwanted.
Her heart felt bitter for the original owner.
The original owner did not want it, but she eventually agreed to the stepmother's choice to escape marrying another person.
"Arrange a car for me. I will leave for a place." the coldness in her voice shocked the servants.
"Where is the lady going?"
When she heard Athena's statement, old nanny Jean—who had been waiting here for a while—was quite dissatisfied.
The family's lady, who returned yesterday night after drinking and gambling, is in no way honorable. She neglected to even take care of herself and disregarded her obligations as a mother and a wife. She had just woken up and was getting ready to leave once more.
She disapproved of Athena's style.
"I said to arrange a car!"
Old nanny Jean looked up when Athena gradually raised her voice. She was startled as soon as she noticed Athena. The woman in front of them had wavy, ruby-red hair draped behind her back and wore a dress in white.
She no longer wears flamboyant or excessive makeup, and her face is still as vivid as a mountain after a rain, and the pair of eyes that contain both power and danger makes her afraid to stare straight at it.
