Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114

“Miss Xianna, you’re still too immature. I don’t think being a housewife is bad, nor earning one’s own money is nobler. It’s just the difference in one’s role in marriage. My husband is the breadwinner while I take care of the household. If there happens to be a day when he no longer wants to be the breadwinner, I can still switch with him and be the breadwinner instead, I won’t look down on him for being the househusband since I can still care for him.” Stella followed up by switching the topic. “On the other hand, I detest NEETs that can’t earn money and have to depend on their parents, yet they could be very vocal about being independent.”

The jewelry shop may not be packed, yet Stella’s voice was loud enough for everyone within to hear.

Most that came to the shop in the morning were housewives like Stella. Apart from housewives like Stella, who had a wealthy family background that did not require them to work for money, there were those that chose to become housewives for their children’s sake.

Women had sacrificed their careers to care for the family, only to receive scornful words. Anyone would be enraged to hear criticisms like “not worth even a penny” or “living off their husband“.

Stella’s words undoubtedly resonated with those that were present.

Unable to withstand such words, some blurted, “Such a young lady, and yet she has such traditional thinking.”

“Can’t you make your own decisions? What era are we in to still have a need to define a woman’s role?”

“Having a career is so much easier. If my husband is willing to become a househusband, I’d even give him my debit card.”

“What right do you vermins have to look down on housewives.”

Xianna, in a burst of anger, shouted, “Shut up, all of you! It’s none of your business!”

The salesperson reminded, “Miss, please refrain from raising your voice in the establishment.

Xianna blew her top. “It’s just a cheap bracelet. Do you doubt that I can buy it?” She then took out a credit card and threw it onto the top of the display counter. “Swipe this to the card now!”

“I didn’t mean it that way,” said the salesperson. Then, she turned to Stella and asked, ” Madam, what do you think of this bracelet?”

Stella shrugged and said, “The shine and color are good, but the size isn’t a good fit. Since Ms. Xianna wants it, she can have it.”

She signaled the salesperson to take off the bracelet after she had said that.

Xianna rolled her eyes. ‘Why find an excuse when you can’t even afford it?‘ she thought.
