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

Meanwhile, Maggie continued to organize her materials.

After Isabella had changed and came out of the bathroom, she pulled out a small rabbit lantern from her bag.

Mom, look, a little lantern! Maggie glanced at it and paused, This is- Dad bought it for me! Isnt it cute and beautiful?! Maggie replied, Mm.

Then Isabella ran over to turn off the lights in the room, opened the lanterns light, and excitedly shared, Isnt it more beautiful when the lights are off?! Maggie replied, Mm, it is more beautiful.

She paused and asked, Do you like it a lot? Yeah, I love it! She finished speaking, then pulled out another one.

Dad bought two for me.

Here, you can have the other one.

Mom, do you want to take a walk with me downstairs holding the lantern? Maggie said, Mom already took a shower.

Maybe tomorrow.

She then added, Youve changed clothes now, so its better not to get them dirty.

Isabellas enthusiasm seemed to be dampened by Maggies response.

Her excitement and happiness were somewhat affected: Oh..

However, she hadnt seen Maggie for a whole month.

Noticing that Maggie seemed uninterested in the lantern, she no longer tried to sell it to her.

Instead, she put it down and ran over to hug her: Mom… Maggie put down the book she was holding and responded, Mm, whats wrong? But Isabella didnt reply.

She kicked off her shoes, climbed into Maggies lap, and said, I missed you so much.

Then, she kissed her face twice and laughed, Mom, you smell so nice.

Maggie tightened her arms around her for a moment, then gently stroked her small face, but she didnt say anything.

She could tell that Isabellas face had matured a little and had changed, looking even more like Franklin now.

Her gaze dropped, and seeing that she wasnt wearing socks, Maggie put her back on the bed, covering her feet with a blanket.

She asked, How many days will you be staying here this time? Isabella shook her head.

I dont know.

Dad didnt say, just told me to wait for him to come back here.

Maggie quietly replied with an Mm and didnt ask further.

But Isabella suddenly remembered something else and ran to get her bag Mom, I bought a little gift for you when I went abroad! She pulled out a crystal ball and handed it to Maggie, looking at her eagerly.

Since Isabella had become closer to Julia, she hadnt remembered to buy her gifts for a long time.

Maggie took it, feeling very calm, and said, Thank you, Mom really likes it.

The next day.

After breakfast, Maggie went upstairs and found Isabella on a video call with Franklin.

When she saw Maggie return, Isabella looked up and called out, Mom! Mm.

Maggie responded and opened her computer.

On the other end of the call, Franklin asked, Do you have any plans today? Isabella lay on the bed happily and said, I want to watch a movie, and Mom is going to take me to the movies for lunch! Maggie was focused on reviewing the materials she had organized yesterday.

A moment later, Isabella walked over holding the phone and said, Mom, Dad said I should give the phone to you.

Maggie paused, took the phone, and glanced at Franklin on the screen.

She didnt want to video chat with him, so she placed the phone face down on the table, pointing the camera toward the ceiling, and asked, Whats the matter? Franklin said, Its been hard on you with Isabella these past few days.

Maggie didnt respond, her gaze still on her computer as she typed, adding the ideas she had missed yesterday, while asking.

Anything else? No, Franklin replied, then added, Happy New Year.

Maggie said Mm in response and hung up the call, returning the phone to Isabella.

Around noon, just as Maggie was about to take Isabella out, her phone rang.

It was a call from Johnny.

She smiled slightly and answered the call.

Just as she picked it up, she heard Johnnys voice, lowered and somewhat frustrated: Damn, I ran into them again! Maggie froze for a moment and immediately understood who he meant.

Before she could say anything, Johnny saw Franklin and Julia and they looked over at him.

Johnny: … He said, Theyre coming over, Ill hang up now.

Maggie replied calmly, Okay.

She had just ended the call when Franklin and Julia walked up to Johnny.

Franklin asked, Mr.

Gray, where are you headed? Johnny didnt answer, instead, he forced a smile and said, Mr.

Wilson, Miss Brown, were not that familiar, so if you run into me again, feel free to pretend you didnt see me.

Julia smiled and said, Mr.

Gray, youre really funny.

Johnny smirked, about to respond, when Julia noticed his suitcase and asked, Mr.

Gray, are you traveling abroad too? Johnny laughed and said, Sorry, were not close, no comment.

Without waiting for Julia and Franklin to speak further, he grabbed his suitcase and walked out of the VIP lounge at the airport.

After walking a little further, Johnny called Maggie again: What are you doing? Maggie had just finished changing her clothes.

Hearing his voice, she replied, Im about to go out to watch a movie.

Sounds like a good plan, he responded, then asked, Are you going by yourself? With Isabella.

Johnny: … ་་ Werent you guys celebrating the New Year at the Wilson house this year? Why is she suddenly with you now? Maggie was touching up her makeup and answered lightly, She was brought over last night.

Johnny hadnt expected this and laughed sarcastically: So Franklin is planning to go on a honeymoon with Julia, and since your daughter was in the way, he just sent her to you? Ha, they really have no shame! Maggie didnt react to his words.

At that moment, Isabella, who had finished getting ready, came o Chapter 210 Meanwhile, Maggie continued to organize her materials.

She then spoke to Johnny: Dont worry about them.

Just enjoy yourself.

He added, Ill be back soon, I wont leave the company to you alone.
