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

Chapter 88 Maggie paused .

Was her grandmother implying that Franklin would also be coming home late tonight ? Grandma , Im sorry … Its fine .

But even if youre busy , dont forget to eat well , her grandmother said gently .

Twill .

Thanks , Grandma .

After hanging up , her takeout arrived .

She ate quickly and then continued working until nearly 10 PM before leaving the office .

She hadnt driven herself today , so she had called the driver half an hour earlier to arrange a ride .

By the time she finished her work , the driver should have arrived .

When she got downstairs , she found that the driver was already waiting .

However , it wasnt the driver shed arranged with ; instead , it was Franklins driver .

And Franklin himself was sitting in the back seat .

Seeing her hesitate to get in , Franklin slowly rolled down the window and looked at her .

Grandma asked me to pick you up .

Maggie didnt say much , simply walked around and got into the car , sitting in the same spot she had occupied in the morning .

The car smoothly merged into the traffic .

The car quickly fell into a quiet stillness .

Franklin was focused on his phone , not paying attention to her .

Maggie , however , suddenly remembered something and asked , Did they agree ? She was asking about whether Julias uncle and the others had agreed not to move into the house across from her familys house .

When she had run into Julia at lunch , she had noticed that Julia didnt seem happy , so she guessed that they had agreed to it .

But what about everyone else ? Franklin didnt look up from his phone .

They agreed .

Then … Maggie hesitated for a moment before asking with more certainty , Can I buy that villa ? The one across from my uncles house ? She wanted to buy the villa to ensure no future problems .

Franklin paused , glancing at her briefly .

You can .

Maggie let out a quiet sigh of relief .

Thank you .

Mm , he responded indifferently .

L By the time they got home , Grandma hadnt gone to bed yet .

When she saw that Maggie had indeed returned in Franklins car , she finally felt reassured and went to her room to rest .

CEO , Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time Chapter na After going upstairs , Maggie called Jason to update him on the progress of things .

She had just finished that call when Jolinny called again .

Abouf half an hour later , after hanging up the phone with Johnny , she went back to her room and found that Franklin had already taken a shower .

He was now sitting by the bed , reading a book .

When she entered , Franklin glanced at her and , without saying a word , returned his attention to the book in his hands .

Maggie didnt say anything either .

She went to the bathroom to shower and do her skincare routine .

By the time she was done , it was already quite late , she looked over at Franklin , who was still reading .

he past , when Franklin was distant , she had gotten used to it .

So when they were alone together , she didnt feel too awkward .

Now that things between them were a bit more relaxed , she didnt know how to behave around him .

But she reminded herself that no matter what , their relationship wouldnt change fundamentally .

With that thought , she quietly got into bed and tried to sleep .

Just as she lay down , Franklin put down his book , turned off the lights , and got into bed .

It felt as though he had been waiting for her to get in bed so he could turn off the light .

Maggie paused , thinking perhaps she was overthinking it .

Her mind quickly calmed down , and not long after , she fell asleep .

The next day , Grandma once again asked if Franklin could drive Maggie to the office .

Maggie declined again , saying , Grandma , I have a social engagement today .

It will be inconvenient without a car .

Grandma furrowed her brow and glanced at Franklin .

She was hoping Franklin would be the one to offer to drive her .

However , Franklin silently ate his breakfast , not responding to Grandmas unspoken request .

Seeing this , Maggie lowered her head , not wanting to make things difficult .

Grandma , seeing that Franklin didnt offer , didnt insist .

She then remarked , Of course , Ill just let you take care of it .

Later that day , nothing particularly unusual happened .

Maggie stayed at the office , working overtime until nearly 9 PM , before driving herself home .

To her surprise , when she arrived home , she found that Franklin was already back .

He usually came home much later unless something special had happened .

Since Franklin wasnt in the bedroom , Maggie switched on the lights and put her bag aside .

She was about to go check on Isabella when she noticed a red folder on the vanity .

Maggie froze .

Although she and Franklin shared a bedroom , the left side of the bed was Franklins , and she never went over to that side unless necessary .

Likewise , the right side was hers , and Franklin also didnt cross into her area .

Their personal items wallets , watches , skincare products were neatly organized in their own designated spots .

Her heart skipped a heat , and she quickly opened it .

Sure enough , it was the deed for the villa across from her uncles house , and under the ownership section , it listed only her name .

Before she could fully process it , Franklin came back into the room .
