The Girl They Ignored Returned as the Woman Seven Men Would Die For novel Chapter 140

Middle-aged women always found it easy to strike up a conversation.

Hearing Damaris's question, the women turned their attention to her, looking her up and down.

Soon, one of them spoke up. "Honey, this isn't going to work. No one will hire you looking like that!"

Once one person started, the others quickly chimed in.

"Exactly! Your makeup is a huge problem. Some employers have wives at home.

They despise overly glamorous housekeepers. What if you try to seduce the husband? It's best not to wear makeup at all!"

"And that dress is a no-go. It's way too flashy, and totally impractical for doing chores!"

"Don't even get me started on those heels. Good lord, we run around all day. Flats are a must for comfort!

Are you trying to be a maid or the lady of the house?"

Damaris listened as they critiqued her from head to toe, realizing their words made perfect sense.

A moment later, she walked back to Mika, looking crestfallen. "They said I won't do. Employers won't like my look."

"If you don't fit the part, just work toward becoming someone who does, right?"

Mika smiled softly and stood up from the bench. "Let's go. Didn't I say I was going to give you a makeover?"

Damaris's eyes widened as it clicked.

"You knew my look wouldn't work all along? Why didn't you just tell me instead of letting them tear me apart..."

"Would you have listened if I told you?" Mika looked at her calmly.

Parents naturally assume a position of authority over their children.

They often hate it when their kids know more than they do, as it challenges their authority and makes them feel a loss of control.

If a child offers advice, some parents will instinctively reject or shut it down just to prove they have more life experience.

So Mika bypassed the argument entirely, letting Damaris find the answer herself.

Information coming from her peers would be infinitely more convincing than anything Mika could say.

Damaris was speechless. She bit her lip and muttered awkwardly, "Fine, let's go. I'd love to see how you plan to change me!"
