Chapter 80: Let’s all do chores Chapter 80: Let’s all do chores She was done with the desperate need for approval.

Her time in the hospital had changed her deeply.

She had made a promise to herself, no more treating people who didn’t deserve it like friends.

No more offering kind smiles to those who mocked her behind her back.

No more behaving as though she didn’t belong in the family when the Achebe name was as much hers as theirs.

If anyone dared to say she didn’t belong, they could strip her of her last name, but until then, she was a princess.

And if she was a princess, then she would be treated as one.

She had no intention of letting anyone turn her into their emotional punching bag or housemaid ever again.

Her decision was final.

From this moment on, Nnenna was determined to demand the respect she was owed.

If they wouldn’t give it willingly, she would command it.

Lying in bed, a small, determined smile played on her lips.

It was a new dawn, and for the first time in her life, she wasn’t afraid to live it on her own terms.

By 7:00 a.m., breakfast was served, but Nnenna stayed in her room.

She purposely delayed her arrival, waiting for 30 minutes before strolling out leisurely, freshly bathed and dressed.

“Good morning, everyone,” she said smoothly, her tone calm and composed.
