Chapter 758 Who Do You Like More
Maggie had such an enchanting appearance that she looked like a fairy having descended from the heavens. Not only that, but she exuded the grace of that of a lady from a prestigious family-far more superior to Heather herself, despite being considered Nebula City's most beautiful woman.
To put it simply, Maggie gave off an extraordinary sense of elegance and poise that Heather did not.
Moreover, Autumn and Carlene were just about as beautiful as Heather, which made her feel defeated.
She suddenly wanted to check herself in the mirror. Is my hair okay? What about my makeup? I don't want to lose out to those women!
"Mommy! You're here. I'm so happy!" Stanley let go of Carlene's hand and trotted over.
Everyone turned to Heather as they heard the boy shout in excitement.
Maggie's expression turned odd upon seeing Heather. Then, she turned to Alex. "Stanley's mother is here. When do you two intend on divorcing?"
Is she looking that forward to me getting divorced?
Alex was dumbstruck for a moment.
What's there to like about me? I'm married, and I even have a kid. A woman like Maggie can get any guy she wants! Why the hell is she clinging onto a nobody like me? "We're still discussing it," he replied briefly.
Hearing that, Maggie stepped forward and hooked her arm around his. "Hurry it up! I'm still waiting for you to marry me, you know?" she said in his ear kittenishly after leaning closer.
As her voice was not soft, many people around them heard her, including Heather, who had just walked in.
Alex grew awkward at the question and did not know what to say in response. He figured he was better off disregarding the woman's question and doing something else instead, heading outside for a smoke to cool himself down, for instance.
Heather caressed Stanley's head. “I bought you a birthday cake, Stanley! Do you want to try it now?"
"Daddy got me a cake too. It's over there!" the boy replied, pointing in another direction.
Following his gaze, Heather caught sight of an extravagant five-tiered cake. Then, she glanced back at the small cake she had brought over with her, suddenly feeling as though she had just been slapped in the face.
The woman had accused Alex of forgetting their son's birthday and not buying him a cake, which was why -she had shown up with one.
After arriving at the place, Heather was even more irritated to learn that a more stunning-looking woman was waiting for Alex to get a divorce.
That was why she had decided to change the subject, yet, it only made her feel worse.
At that very moment, Heather saw the ethereal woman walking toward her. Not knowing why the latter

was approaching her, she looked at her warily.
Maggie arrived in front of Heather.
Then, she glanced at the small cake and asked, "Hi! Did you bake that yourself? That's so thoughtful of you."
Heather did not have a good feeling about this woman who looked more exquisite than herself, and she certainly was not going to admit that she had purchased the cake at a bakery. "Why, of course! He's my son, after all."
Maggie beamed and gave Stanley's cheek a light pinch. I adore Stanley so much too."
While speaking, she took an agreement out of her purse and handed it to the boy. "I didn't get you a present, Stanley, but I believe all children love going to amusement parks, and that's why I decided to buy you the biggest amusement park in Nebula City, Happy birthday!"
Stanley took the agreement in disbelief. A five-year-old like him certainly understood nothing about business, but at least he knew that he owned his very own amusement park.
"You're the best, Ms. Grant! I like you so much!" The boy kissed Maggie's cheek in exhilaration.
Maggie glanced at Heather before looking at Stanley. "So who do you like more, Stanley?" she asked. "Is it me, or is it your mother?"
