Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time (by Zora Pradeep) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28

Maggie hadn’t eaten dinner and was craving something warm to fill her stomach, so she agreed.

As soon as she sat down, her stomach growled.

York was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, “Sister–in–law, you… didn’t have dinner?”

“Mm.”

York immediately felt embarrassed. “Sorry, sister–in–law, it’s all my fault…”

“It’s fine. I wasn’t hungry before.”

York looked at her gentle smile, and he felt a bit uncomfortable inside.

He really thought Maggie was a wonderful person.

But it was a shame that his brother just didn’t like her…

When Franklin and the others returned home after celebrating with Julia, it was already nearly 1 AM.

The butler, seeing that Franklin had returned so late with Isabella, asked with concern, “Why so late?”

Franklin replied with a brief “Mm” and didn’t elaborate.

He sent Isabella back to her room, and then, upon returning to his room and turning on the light, didn’t see Maggie. He asked the butler, “She didn’t come back tonight?”

“Madam? No, she hasn’t returned.”

Franklin was somewhat surprised.

It seemed like Maggie hadn’t been home much lately.

Such frequent absences were rare,

Could something serious have happened at her family?

Isabella had been spending a lot of time with Julia recently and was having a great time.

When she woke up in the morning, she had a big smile on her face, feeling very content and in a good mood. She suddenly thought of Maggie and happily hugged her stuffed animal, rushing to the master bedroom. “Mom! Mom!”

The bedroom door was open, but no one was inside.

Chapter 28

Isabella’s face fell, and just then. Franklin came out of the walk–in closet.

She hurriedly asked, “Dad, where’s Mom?”

Franklin was slowly tying his tie and replied indifferently. She’s not at home.”

“Not at home? Why?”

“If you want to know, ask her.”

“Okay.”

Isabella picked up her phone and called Maggie.

Maggie had just finished her run and, seeing Isabella’s call, answered it without thinking. Before she could speak,

Isabella asked eagerly, “Mom! Where are you?”

Maggie didn’t answer right away. Instead, she asked, “What’s up, Bella? Do you need something?”

Except for Jessica, no one knew where she was staying right now.

She was really enjoying her independent life and didn’t want to be disturbed.

So, for now, she wasn’t planning to tell Isabella where she was living.

Isabella, with the phone on speaker, lay on the bed that belonged to Maggie and Franklin, pouting as she coquettishly said, “I miss you, Mom. Can you take me to school in a bit?”

Maggie said, “Mom’s place is a bit far from your school. I won’t make it in time to pick you up today. Maybe next

time.”

“Oh… Okay.” Isabella sounded a little disappointed but then immediately requested, “Mom, you must take me to school tomorrow morning, okay?”

Maggie hesitated and didn’t respond immediately.

She wasn’t particularly eager to go back there.

Not speaking, Maggie’s hesitation didn’t escape Franklin, who had been listening in on the conversation.

He was a bit surprised.

After all, despite everything going on at Maggie’s Miller family, he thought that with how much Maggie valued her daughter, she would have agreed without hesitation to fulfill this small request.

Maggie said, “How about letting Dad take you instead?”
