Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time

Chapter 108

Thinking about this, although she no longer cared about Franklin, she still couldn't help but smile at the kindly Old Madam Brown and the sanctimonious Sun Yueqing.

She responded to them with her and Franklin's issues, as well as Julia's interference in her marriage: "You all say you're genuinely concerned about me, and I really want to believe that. But your concern is just helping Julia interfere with my marriage?" earing this, neither Old Madam Brown nor Janice appeared the least bit awkward.

They probably anticipated she would say this.

Old Madam Brown sighed and said, "Mag, you know the situation between you and Frank. Why do you have to force someone who doesn't love you to stay with you? Divorce is the only way for you to start fresh. Grandma only-"

"You want to say you're doing this for my own good, right?" Maggie interrupted her, looking at her and Janice, and said, "How many times have you repeated this? It's getting annoying.

You're not even trying to come up with new words to flatter me. How could I possibly believe you? Maybe next time, try a fresh line?"

Before they could respond, Maggie continued, "But it probably won't make a difference. After all, no matter how much you say, it's all empty. What really matters is what you've done, right?"

Both Old Madam Brown and Janice paused, taken aback by Maggie's words.

However, Old Madam Brown didn't show any change in expression. She was about to speak when Maggie interrupted again.

She turned to President Felton, who had just walked back over, and said, "President Felton, have you finished? Shall we leave

now?"

President Felton noticed the strange atmosphere on their side but didn't comment.

Once they had walked away a little, President Felton finally asked, "Is there some kind of misunderstanding between you and President Brown's family?"

Johnny and Maggie exchanged a glance, and Maggie responded, "No."

Because it wasn't a misunderstanding.

President Felton misunderstood her meaning, thinking that there truly wasn't any misunderstanding between her and the

Brown family.

"No misunderstanding is good," he said seriously. "With the way Franklin values Miss Brown, the Brown family is going to rise up quickly.

The Wilson family and Franklin are not people who can be easily offended, so even if you don't want to get too close to the Brown family, it's best not to offend them." Chapter 108

Hearing this, Maggie chuckled, feeling somewhat ironic.

Only she, in the entire world, would be warned to get along with the mistress because her husband paid too much attention 1 her.

Johnny couldn't take it anymore. He spoke up, "Our company, Cole, doesn't fear Franklin."

Due to their company's connections with the government, they had been under government protection. A while ago, Franklin couldn't even touch Cole.

Now, with the projects they were working on, they expected to get more support from the government soon.

This time, their company's scale would increase significantly within the year.

Once that happened, Franklin wouldn't be able to touch them anymore.

So, when Johnny said they weren't afraid of Franklin, it wasn't an idle boast. It was confidence born of reality.

This was the foundation Maggie had earned for herself!

Old Madam Brown's birthday was on Saturday.

For Maggie, whether Franklin attended or not was no longer important.

But Isabella would definitely attend.

To prevent Isabella from sneaking off to find Julia and her not being able to find him, Maggie decided to give him a call on Thursday morning.

This was the first time she had taken the initiative to call Isabella since returning from Country A.

Isabella was having breakfast.

Franklin was also present.

When Isabella saw Maggie's call, she was very happy.

She quickly put down her utensils and answered the phone, "Mom!"

"Mm," Maggie could hear something in her mouth. She greeted her, "Are you having breakfast?"

"Mm! Have you eaten, Mom?"

"I've eaten," Maggie replied, then continued, "I'm calling you to remind you that Saturday is your grandmother's birthday, so don't run around. Stay with your grandmother." "Alt

Isabella didn't expect that Maggie's call would be about this.

She hadn't been able to spend time with Aunt Julie last weekend, and she had thought sh

Chapter 108

So, hearing this from Maggie now made her feel a little unhappy. However, she couldn't completely ignore what Maggie had

said.

Maggie, of course, could tell that Isabella wasn't pleased. She knew exactly what was going on in her mind.

She tightened her grip on the phone and asked, "Is your dad home?"

"Dad? Yeah, he's here." Isabella glanced over at Franklin, who was sitting across from her, and asked Maggie, "Mom, do you want to talk to Dad?"

"Yes, please give the phone to your dad. I need to talk to him about something."

Okay." Isabella handed the phone to Franklin, who was still eating breakfast. "Dad, Mom wants to talk to you."

Franklin paused and took the phone. "What's up?"

"My grandmother's birthday is the day after tomorrow, and I hope you can talk to Isabella and tell her to come back to the Miller family house with me that day and not run around." Franklin listened and responded, "Got it. Anything else?"

"I'll pick her up on Friday night to take her back to the Miller family."

"Okay."

With his response, Maggie finally felt relieved. After a brief silence, she added, "Thank you."

Franklin simply replied, "Mm."

She hadn't asked him whether he was free for Saturday when she gave him the invitation earlier. It was the same this time.

Besides, since he had already given her the items he won at the auction to pass on to her grandmother, it was clear that he wouldn't attend. He was implicitly asking her to represent him.

So, there was no need to ask any further questions. She didn't say another word and hung up the phone.

Franklin didn't seem to notice that, unlike in previous years when she had always asked if he would accompany her to her grandmother's birthday, this year Maggie didn't ask him that question.

After she hung up, he handed the phone back to Isabella and said, "Your mom will come pick you up tomorrow night to take you to your grandmother's house. On Saturday, you need to listen to your mom and not run off." Isabella pouted, "But-"

Franklin didn't respond. He simply looked at her calmly.

Seeing this, Isabella realized there was no room for negotiation, so she reluctantly said, "Okay..."

"Good girl," Franklin praised.

Isabella pouted, unable to resist bargaining. "Then on Sunday, I want to go play with Aunt Julie. You have to come with Aunt Julie and me."

Franklin chuckled, "Alright."
