Female Novel
Chapter 935
Stella was very tempted but rejected Keegan’s offer anyway. “You bought me plenty of new clothespreviously, didn’t you? I hardly wore any of them.
I shouldn’t be buying any new ones now.”
Keegan looked at her. “I was talking about myself.”
Stella was speechless.
Keegan smiled and walked into the fashion store after saying that. She gritted her teeth and followedbehind him.
‘How could he do this during his probation period? I’m going to deduct his marks!’
Stella forgot about deducting Keegan’s mark completely as soon as she entered the store.
The latest collection had just arrived, and the store was filled with various clothes designs. Stella likedeverything she touched, but she put them back after seeing their price tags.
Keegan rarely went shopping with her because he was always busy. Stella could really take her time ina store.
Stella could make a decision immediately when it came to a huge amount of money but would becomevery hesitant while dealing with little money.novelbin
She would always compare prices while buying her daily clothes and pick the ones with the best valuefor money. As for Keegan, he would never waste his time deciding on things like this because he couldearn a thousand times more than what would cost him.
He could never understand why Stella did that, but he began to get it after some time.
He figured that a couple did not have to always spend a lot of money while being together as theyshould put their daily necessities first. She would only use those luxury items she bought on specialoccasions anyway. After all, she needed to present herself well, not to embarrass him. She onlydressed nicely because she wanted to make him look good.
And she preferred to be a wise spender in her daily life.
For example, she ordered a flower shelf online that she placed on the second-floor balcony. Then, shefound out that the labor fees to assemble them would cost as much as a new one, so she bought thetools and asked Keegan to put them together with her.
Keegan’s hands-on skills were great, but he had only dealt with assembling machinery before. Thatwas his first time building a flower shelf. He thought that it was a very time-wasting thing to do, butStella kept convincing him that it was not.
She said, “Honey, do you remember who Mrs. Valle is? She’s a big cat lover, right? So, her husbandbuilt a cat mansion for her in their backyard. It looked magnificent.” She even showed him the photosas she spoke.” Look, this mansion is much more complicated than our flower shelf. Do you have anyidea why her husband is so good?
“Also, Mrs. Miller just got pregnant, right? The doctor said that she has calcium deficiency and needs toget a bit of sun. Her husband was worried she would get bored while doing that, so he built her a swingin the yard. It was made from real wood. It looks so good and sturdy! However, her husband isn’t as talland strong as you. How did he manage to put those pieces of wood together? How powerful is he? AndMrs. Miller…”
She gave him a few examples and purposely said their husbands were either very strong or competent.
Men did not like competition, and the last thing they wanted was for their woman to compare them toother men. So, Keegan’s competitive spirit was immediately awakened.
He did not just assemble the flower shelf for her but also built her an automatic canopy. He onlyrealized he had fallen into Stella’s trap after losing himself in her continuous compliments.
He figured that Stella only wanted to use him by praising him.
He never understood why Stella would want to spend a whole afternoon assembling it to save a fewdollars in labor fees. He was even a little mad that she wasted his precious time.
However, he remembered how energetic Stella was when he thought about what happened that time.She would wipe away his sweat, ask him if he was getting tired, and remove the splinter from his fingerwith tweezers…
Every penny that she saved showed how passionate she was about living.
After assembling the flower shelf, the sense of accomplishment was worth much more than the moneyshe had saved.
Stella would probably be dumbfounded if she ever found out how greatly Keegan thought of herbecause she liked saving money, i
Felicity was the main reason she subtly developed the habit. She also had more bills to pay after thedivorce, so she had no choice but to make every penny count.
