Harry, however, stopped in his tracks and turned his head to watch her.
Maggie noticed but didn’t pay him any attention.

“Yes,” she answered curtly. “Do you think I’m stalking you. Mr. Becker?”
Harry paused for a moment before replying. “That’s not what I meant.”

Maggle didn’t respond.
But Logan didn’t leave. He stood there, staring at Maggle, and asked, “Mag, how have you been recently?”
Maggie bit her lip and finally turned to face him. Her voice was cold when she asked, “What do you want to say?”
“L” Logan’s voice softened. “Mag, do you have to speak to your father like this?”
Maggie coldly responded, “And how do you think I should speak to you?”
*Your father knows he has done things wrong in the past, but you know, I’ve always had you in my heart.”
Maggie laughed bitterly. “Oh, so you’ve always had me in your heart, but you allowed Julia to get close to my husband, and you let my husband take good care of her–tell me, how can you say that you’ve always had me in your heart?”
“Mag.” Logan frowned. “I understand your feelings, but Julle and Frank truly love each other. Love can’t be forced, so why-”
“Yes, love can’t be forced. So, your affair back then was perfectly justified, and now she’s just like her mother, proudly playing the role of the mistress, right?”
Logan’s face darkened. “Mag! When did you become so extreme?”
“Extreme?” Maggie sneered. “Should I immediately divorce Franklin to make way for Julia? Would that be less extreme?”
“Logan, what happened?” At this moment, Tracy and Sophia entered.
Tracy immediately noticed Maggie and smiled. “Isn’t this Mag? Long time no see, you’re even more beautiful.”
“Mom” Hearing Tracy praise Maggie, Sophia became unhappy.
She had always known Maggie was beautiful, but she hadn’t expected her to look even more beautiful after a few years.
Looking at Maggie’s fair and delicate skin, her outstanding temperament,Sophia couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy.
But then she remembered, what difference did it make that Maggie was beautiful? Her future brother–in–law still didn’t like
her, he only liked her sister, Julia.
Thinking this, Sophia finally felt a bit better.
Logan looked at Tracy. “Sister–in–law, why are you here?”
“We hadn’t seen you for so long, so we came to visit,”
Sophia interrupted. Then, seeing the jewelry box the store manager had opened, she looked at Maggie and purposely said loudly. “Is this the anniversary gift you customized for Auntie? It’s so beautiful!*
Logan smiled. “Yes.”
“Every year, you prepare such expensive gifts for Auntie in advance, always giving her surprises. You’re really good to Auncle,” Sophia added with a smile.
Logan chuckled.
