Zoe usually managed the villa cleaning by calling a few part-time cleaners over.

But it was all on Morwenna, who started working at dusk and didn't finish until eleven at night.

After finishing her chores, Morwenna returned to her room for a bath and sleep, only to find she couldn't figure out how to use the smart bathtub.

Zoe had explained how to use the vacuum cleaner and the washing machine, but it hadn't occurred to her that Morwenna, who grew up in the mountains, was used to heating water for baths and had never used a shower, let alone the smart bathtub.

Morwenna thought about asking Zoe for help, but it was so late, she didn't want to disturb her.

She briefly considered asking the man upstairs but dropped the thought. He surely wouldn't help.

After fiddling with it for ages, she managed only to run cold water and had a cold bath.

She's got a strong body, and she'd dipped in cold water a bunch of times before anyway.

After the bath, Morwenna sneezed twice from the cold and fell asleep when her head hit the pillow due to sheer exhaustion.

The room was spacious and beautiful, unlike any Morwenna had ever stayed in.

A closer look would reveal that her belongings took up only a small cabinet, and she curled up in the corner of the large bed, looking pitiable, like someone living on another's charity.
