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

Hearing her voice, Isabella happily called out, “Mom!”

Maggie responded and asked, “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet,” Isabella replied in a slightly sulky voice. “Mom, are you at Grandma’s house? I want to come over too. Can you eat with me later?”

Grandma Miller, hearing this, looked over and asked, “Is that Isabella on the phone?”

Maggie could only answer, “Yes.”

“Does Isabella miss you?” Grandma Miller put down her bowl and walked over. “If she wants to come over, quickly contact Franklin and have someone bring her here. We’ll save some food for her.”

Maggie said, “…Understood.”

She then spoke to Isabella, “Alright, come over now.”

“Okay!”

Before hanging up, Maggie remembered something and added, “Tell your dad before you come over.”

“Got it.”

The Miller family was waiting to continue eating until Isabella arrived.

Maggie told them not to wait for her.

About an hour later, Isabella arrived at the Miller family home.

As soon as she entered, she ran toward Maggie. “Mom! I’m back!”

“Mm.” Maggie adjusted her clothes and said calmly, “Let me reheat your food.”

“Okay!”

Isabella put down her little backpack and tablet and followed Maggie into the kitchen.

Jason and his wife had taken Xavier and the others to school, while Grandma Miller was still at home.

Seeing Isabella stick to Maggie like a little tail, Grandma Miller smiled happily and didn’t disturb them as they reunited

Maggie asked Isabella to wait outside.

Isabella obediently sat in the dining room while Maggie brought her the reheated food.

Isabella was actually a picky eater, and reheated food never tasted as good as freshly made dishes. Today, however, she wasn’t picky and ate happily.

While eating, she shared a funny story with Maggie. “Mom, today I went out to play with Uncle He and

Daisy.*

“Mm.” Maggie replied.

After finishing her sentence, Isabella seemed to realize that Maggie might not know who Daisy was, so *she explained. “Daisy is my friend. She calls Uncle Uncle Harry.”

“Mm.” Maggie answered, noticing how eager she was to share. She asked, “What did you guys do?”

“We went to explore a maze.”

Maggie listened without much reaction, but Grandma Miller’s expression darkened.

Previously, when Franklin had taken Isabella back, Grandma Miller thought he would personally take

care of her.

Now, she realized that not only was he not taking care of her, he was too busy with Julia to do so and had even handed the responsibility over to someone else instead of letting Maggie take care of Isabella.

Her face became very unpleasant.

Isabella didn’t know what was going through Grandma Miller’s mind. She continued, “Uncle Harry invited me to have dinner with them, but I wanted to come back and eat, so I called you.”

“Mm.*

Maggie asked softly, “Did you thank Uncle Harry?”

“I did!” Isabella happily replied.

Maggie didn’t ask any further.

After finishing her meal, Isabella stayed in the living room to accompany Maggie and Grandma Miller.

Grandma Miller sat next to Isabella and asked, “Would you like to stay at Grandma’s house for a little

longer?”

Before Maggie could respond, Isabella happily said, “Sure!”

Grandma Miller continued, “Since you agreed to stay with Grandma, you can’t go back on your word. You’ll stay at least for a week.”

“Okay!”

Maggie frowned.

Grandma Miller was very happy and lovingly patted Isabella’s hand.

As Isabella lowered her head to play games, Grandma Miller spoke to Maggie. “A child raised by you is different. No matter what, Isabella still clings to you.”

Maggie listened and just smiled.

Isabella came over and asked Maggie to play games with her.

Maggie looked at her and said, “Are you sure?”

She felt that Isabella might agree easily now, but in two or three days, she might regret it and want to go back to Franklin and Julia.

Isabella didn’t react at first.

Two seconds later, she realized what Maggie meant and said; “Of course, I’ve already promised Grandma.”
