Chapter 128
In someone else’s car, Maggie dozed off for a few minutes, bat she wasn’t sleeping soundly. When she opened her eyes and saw Harry retracting his hand, she didn’t think much of it and asked, “Are we there?”
“Almost there.”
Two minutes later, the car arrived at the hospital. Harry carried Daisy out of the car and said to Maggie: “Do you want me to have someone take you back?”
Maggie shook her head: “No need, I’ll drive back myself.”
Harry didn’t insist.
As they were about to leave, Maggie’s phone buzzed. It was a message from Franklin: “Grandma is going to visit your grandmother later. Let’s all go back to the Miller family together.”
This message needed a response.
She picked up the phone and called Franklin.
Franklin quickly answered: “Hello?”
Maggie: “I’ll go pick up Isabella and bring her over.”
By saying this, she was implying that she didn’t expect Franklin to want to go back to the Miller family with her.
After all, whenever she wanted him to go back with her, he always found excuses.
And her family didn’t necessarily want to see him either.
There was a brief silence on the other end, and then Franklin replied: “Okay.”
Once Maggie heard that, she hung up the phone and turned the car toward Franklin’s villa.
When she arrived, Isabella had already packed her bag and was ready.
Seeing Maggie arrive, she curled up next to Franklin without moving, turning her face away from Maggie.
She was still angry that Maggie didn’t take her skiing last week.
Franklin looked at her and suddenly paused: “Did you not sleep well last night?”
Maggie didn’t expect him to ask this.
Maybe it was because she hadn’t put on makeup, and her hair was a bit messy. Her lack of sleep was obvious.
She coldly replied with a “Mm” and didn’t intend to elaborate. Just then, the housekeeper interjected: “Did you have insomnia? We have some excellent sleep–inducing incense. I can place it in your room later—”

Maggie explained: “I usually don’t have trouble sleeping. It was just that I went camping yesterday, and I’m not used to sleeping outdoors.”
The housekeeper frowned: “What’s so fun about camping in the winter? Don’t catch a cold.”
Maggie smiled and replied: “Winter camping is fun. You can have snowball fights, build snowmen, play hide and seek… The atmosphere is just better.”
Other people at the camp were indeed having a great time.
She actually felt a bit envious.
Franklin listened thoughtfully, putting down the newspaper and looking at her.
Isabella, however, felt irritated and even more upset.
Last time, she didn’t comfort her.
But camping was so fun, and Mom didn’t take her!
Isabella grabbed her bag, jumped off the sofa, and snorted as she ran upstairs.
Maggie frowned but didn’t say anything. Before she could speak, Franklin put down the newspaper and calmly said: “Isabella, come back.”
Seeing that only the mother and daughter had arrived and not Franklin, Grandma Wilson immediately frowned. “Where is Frank? Is he busy again?”
