Chapter 44
I decided to give him the present today, so I wrapped up the painting and
went back to the dining room.

Liam was not in the dining room; he was smoking on a rocking chair on the
balcony. It began to snow. Snowflakes were falling from the sky like feathers.
I sat next to Liam. “This is for you,” I said as I gave him the present.
Liam placed the cigarette in his mouth. His eyes lit up at first when he
unwrapped the present, but then he threw the painting on the floor when he
saw the signature on it. “No, I don’t want it,” he said.
“Why?” I asked as I picked up the painting.
“It’s ugly,” Liam said.
Ugly? The flowers and birds in the painting look almost real.

“Also, it’s a fake. Are you trying to trick me?” Liam rolled his eyes.
“How could it be fake? I got it from an art exhibition,” I said.

Liam scoffed. “I know the person who drew this. He often creates counterfeits
to cheat those rich people who pretend to have good taste in arts.”
“You are lying.” I refused to believe what he said.
“Go and check it on the internet,” Liam smirked.
I took out my phone and keyed in the name of the painting in a browser. It
took me a while to find relevant information on a forum for experts in the
area. It was exactly like Liam said. I turned off the screen, disappointed.
“How much did you spend on the painting?” Liam asked.
“Thirteen thousand dollars,” I answered.
Liam laughed mockingly, then closed his eyes and leaned bac

rocking chair.
I stood there with the painting in my hands, and my heart ached.
Indeed, I don’t know anything about the arts. I’m only good at math. I’m just
trying to make him happy.

I left the balcony and went back to my room. Then, I looked for the jewelry set
in the drawer and returned to the balcony.
Liam turned and looked at me when he heard my footsteps.
“I have nothing else for you, so I won’t take your present too. Thanks anyway,” I
said as I put the jewelry down and left. I felt like the pressure lifted from my
shoulders.
“I told you to throw it away if you don’t want it,” said Liam.
Hearing that, I picked up the jewelry and opened the window, ready to throw
it out.

“Little princess wants to throw away a twenty–thousand dollar’s worth of
jewelry,” Liam mocked.
“You asked me to throw it away, didn’t you?” I said.
“I asked you to keep it too, didn’t I?” said Liam sarcastically.
“I never asked anything from you, and I’m not a princess,” I said.
“You are mine now,” Liam smirked.
“No, I’ll never be yours. Good night,” I said as I put the jewelry back on the
table.
I locked myself in my room. I sat on the couch in the dark, only light reflected
from the snow coming through the windows.
I picked up the painting and looked at it. I still find it beautiful even though it
was fake, just like my marriage with Liam. I could not tell the authenticity of
the painting; I just loved what I saw. I was just a fool.

I found a pair of scissors and cut the painting into small pieces. I put the
painting pieces into the trashcan before I prepare for sleep. Then, someone
knocked on the door.
I ignored the knock on the door and closed my eyes. Then, I heard someone
open the door and get closer.
“Get up,” said Liam.
I ignored him.
“Get up, or I’ll get onto the bed with you,” Liam threatened, so I sat up.
Then, I saw Liam standing by a coffee table with a canvas and a box of
paints. “Come. Draw,” he ordered.
Draw?
“I can’t draw,” I said.

“Just draw anything. If you want to give me a painting as a gift, you should at
least give me an original work,” Liam said.
However, I was too tired to draw. “I don’t know how to draw,” I said.
“Draw a rat,” he said in a surprisingly gentle voice.
“I can’t draw art. I can only draw circuit diagrams.” I refused.
“Draw a circuit diagram then. Come over quick.” Liam was getting impatient.
I said nothing. I lay down and covered myself with a blanket.
He doesn’t understand how much I regret marrying him and buying the fake
painting. Also, he knows that I hate rats the most.
I started to feel suffocated under the blanket. I could not hear anything under
the blanket. Just when I thought Liam had gone away, he snatched and lifted
the blanket.

My eyes hurt from the sudden light. I shouted and kicked Liam. I wanted to
bite him like last time, but he grabbed my jaws.

“Are you going to draw or not?” asked Liam angrily.
I could not talk with Liam’s hand grabbing my jaws, but I would refuse even if I
could.
Liam noticed my expression. He tightened his grip. My eyes teared from the
pain.
“Draw or not?” he asked again.
I was determined to defy him. I refused even after I passed out from the pain.
However, Liam seemed to be more determined than I was. He had not
finished his torture when I finally woke up.
“Draw or die on the bed,” he said.
