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

L Chapter 13 Meanwhile , Isabella had always been close to Maggies grandmother .

Before , whenever Isabella was home and Maggie visited the family , she almost always brought her Rughter along .

But now , although Isabella had returned to the country , she hadnt called her once in all these days Instead , she called Julia every day , unable to go even a few days without seeing her .

Given that , there was no need to force things .

Besides , now that Isabella and Julia were so close , if the old lady found out , who knew how upset she would be .

So this time , even though Isabella was back in the country , Maggie didnt go to Franklins place to pick her up , but went to the family home alone .

The traffic was heavy , and it was already past six when Maggie arrived .

Maggies grandmothers smile faltered when she saw her , gently touching her face with concern , Youve lost weight .

Maggies eyelashes fluttered as she said , Work has been busy lately .

The old lady sighed , No matter how busy , you must eat properly .

I know , Grandmother .

Ill take care of myself.

Maggie sat beside her grandmother , resting her face on the elderly womans shoulder , seeking some warmth .

Seeing the lamb soup was nearly ready , the old lady asked someone to serve her a bowl to warm her up .

Listening to her grandmothers caring words , Maggies eyes welled up thinking about recent events .

CEO .

Your Chapter 13 But fearing her grandmother would worry , she quickly composed herself and asked , Havent Aunt and the others returned from their trip yet ? Not yet .

Theyre enjoying themselves so much they said theyll be back a week later .

What about Uncle ? Does he have business dinner tonight ? Your uncle canceled his dinner when he heard you were coming .

He said d d come back to eat with us .

He should be here soon .

Good .

Just as they finished speaking , Jason arrived .

Seeing Maggie , he smiled saying Mag , youre back ? Then his brow furrowed , Why have you lost weight ? Havent you been eating properly ? Maggie smiled , I was too busy before … Ill eat more now .

Jason sighed and kept adding meat to her bowl as the servants served dinner .

Though Jason noted her weight loss , Maggie could also see how haggard he looked .

Although she didnt work at Jasons Corporation , she knew the company was struggling .

Jason was overwhelmed with company matters daily but couldnt turn things around yet .

Over the years , if Franklin had helped with just a few projects , Jasons Corporation would never have fallen into such dire straits .

But except for the two times when Franklins grandmother had strictly ordered it , Franklin had never helped her and her uncle .

She thought , if not for Franklins grandmother , given how Franklin misunderstood her , he wouldnt just refuse to help he might even deliberately destroy Jasons Corporation .

At this thought , Maggie gave a bitter smile , and the delicious lamb in her mouth suddenly lost its flavor .

Chapter 11 Understanding her difficult position , Jason had never asked her to seek Franklins help , even when they needed it .

After dinner , while the old lady was dozing .

Maggie handed Jason a card containing ten million .

Mag , your uncle doesnt need I have no use for it anyway .

Maggie pressed the card back to him .

I cant help with anything else , this is all I can do .

True , she had al had always been academically gifted .

She could handle research and development , but she seemed unsuited for business .

Fortunately , she had secured several patents in artificial intelligence years ago , and the tech company she co founded with Johnny and others paid annual dividends .

Throughout the year , these various income streams meant she could earn tens of millions even while doing nothing .

Jason felt ashamed , Youve given uncle money many times , but the company still … Remained barely alive .

Its because I lack ability .

Its normal for a company to invest heavily during transformation .

Dont pressure yourself too much , uncle .

This reminded her of Johnnys words when they met the other day , The Al field is developing incredibly fast now .

With your development skills back then and my operational abilities , if you hadnt gone off to get married , our company would probably be worth hundreds of billions now .

We could have easily become the industry leader domestically .

Fortunately , AI still has huge development potential , and we still have a chance .

I hope you can return soon .

If she could really regain her former abilities , once she returned to the company and helped it develop further , she could provide even more financial support to her uncle .

It was past ten when Franklin got home .

Mr.

CEO .

Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time Isabella rubbed her eyes .

Daddy , youre back ? Mm .

He said flatly .

Go to sleep if youre tired .

Okay , goodnight , Daddy .

Mm Habella went upstairs to sleep .

Franklin took the water the butler poured for him , finished it , and went upstairs too .

The bedroom was still pitch black .

It seemed empty .

Franklin paused , turned on the light .

Indeed , no one was there .
