"What do you mean I was gifted to you?"
"It is not good to eavesdrop but you heard it right. You are a gift that was forcefully imposed on me."
"Y-You... are.... lying..."
"Am I? You know what? Gift is a very fancy term for you. 'Trash' suits you be...

I can't do this!
Why was a single room taking me so long to just dust?
I still had to mop it and change the covers of the cushions. I didn't know housework would be so difficult. I wanted to just die.
My arms and back started aching after ten minutes I picked up the broom, and my legs had begun giving up too. And no matter how much I washed the windows, they still looked like they had smudges over them.
So, I gave up on it and started cleaning the tiles instead. I had no idea how I was supposed to do it. I should have listened to mom when she used to scold me for not helping her in the house. Well, I didn't know that I would have to do it even after marrying a billionaire.
Billionaire, my foot.
"You aren't done yet?"
Ignore, Reyna. He is just here to make fun of you.
"Reyna, I am talking to you. Did you already forget what I told you about not answering me?" Yuvaan said with an underlying threat.
I looked up at him and shook my head. I had been cleaning a tile with a brush for the last one hour and still couldn't get that black spot removed. It felt like it was mocking me too.
"You remember what I said yesterday, right? If you don't finish the work, you won't get to eat. And by the looks of it, I don't think you will be able to do that for another two months," he added and gave me a fake worried look.
"I am almost done. It is just that spot which is consuming my time," I reasoned and pointed towards the place I was cleaning.
"That's part of the design, Reyna," he said and pursed his lips.
What?!
"B-but... it is on that tile only..." I argued.
"So what? Nothing is perfect. You gonna blame everything on it just because it is not like the other tiles?" he asked.
"What the hell? I was wasting my time on nothing," I mumbled under my breath.
"I thought you were an architect. You should have known it better than anyone else. I am disappointed." Yuvaan looked at me like I had committed a crime and walked away.
I threw the brush away in frustration and continued with dusting off the sofa and bed. After that, I cleaned all the sceneries and mopped the place. I was so tired, and my empty stomach was not helping at all.
It kept growling while I tried to distract myself. After getting over with one guest room, I moved on to the next, but unfortunately, I couldn't complete my task as I fainted while taking out the trash.
I was woken up by Grace who was looking at me with concern filled eyes. I asked her what happened, and she told me that since I had starved for a whole day, I fell unconscious. She took me to my room with the help of her assistant, and informed me that I had been out for over 6 hours.
