With her newfound wealth, Mia decided to indulge a bit.

She selected a few silk scarves that she thought would suit Laura’s complexion perfectly.

As Mia approached the checkout counter, someone behind her handed over a card and said, “Put it on

mine.”

Mia grabbed the card and turned to see Timothy standing there. “What’s this for?”

“I’m not the type to let women pay.” Timothy replied.

“Oh, is that so? I don’t recall you being so considerate back when I was footing the bill for groceries and

The store clerk nodded in agreement. “Absolutely. As women, we should strive for self–reliance and

financial independence,” she asserted.

“Exactly. Here, use my card,” Mia replied, handing over her bank card.

Once the transaction was done, she grabbed the box of scarves and walked away without looking back.
