Even if she and Franklin hadn’t officially divorced, or even if they had, given the friendship between the two old ladies, she would still have to invite the Wilson family.
As for whether the Wilson family would come or not, that was their business.
Tonight, Maggie had originally planned to return to her own place, but upon thinking about it, she turned the steering wheel
around and headed back to Franklin’s villa.
When she arrived, she realized that neither Franklin nor Isabella had returned. Old Lady Wilson had left for the old residence a couple of days ago due to some matters.
Maggie dropped her bag and went into the bathroom.
Half an hour later, just as she finished her shower and stepped out, she heard the sound of a car in the driveway. It seemed
that Franklin and Isabella had returned.
Maggie, without any emotion, thought about it as she sat down and began drying her hair.
When Isabella realized that Maggie was home, she immediately ran upstairs and threw herself into her arms. “Mom, we’re
back!”
She smelled of the perfume Julia wore.
Maggie remained calm, turning off the blow dryer and gently patting Isabella’s little face. “Have you taken a shower yet?”
Isabella shook her head. “Not yet.”
“It’s already past ten. Go back to your room and take a shower. You have school tomorrow.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Franklin entered the room. Their eyes met for a moment.
Maggie gave him a brief glance, then coldly looked away. At that moment, Isabella tugged at her, saying, “Mom, can you help
me take a shower?”
Maggie responded, “Okay, let me dry my hair first.”
“Okay!”
Isabella happily ran back to her room to get her pajamas.
Franklin watched her leave and sat down on the other side, asking, “When did you get back?”
“Not long ago,” Maggie said without looking at him, continuing to dry her hair.
Franklin didn’t ask further. He stood up and went to the closet, preparing to shower.
Maggie suddenly remembered something important. She turned off the blow dryer and, before he entered the bathroom, took one of the invitations out of her bag and handed it to him.

Chapter 98
“Grandma’s birthday is coming up. This is the invitation for the Wilson family.”
When she got closer to him, she realized that his clothes still carried the distinct scent of Julia’s perfume.
Maggie lightly pinched her nose but quickly let go and took a small step back, distancing herself from him.
Isabella cuddled up in Maggie’s arms and asked, “Can I sleep with you tonight?”
Franklin was reading a book. He heard her and merely responded with a soft “Hmm” without asking further or trying to stop
The next day, after breakfast, Maggie sent Isabella to school per her request and then went back to the company.
The old lady’s birthday was coming up, but for the past month, she had been busy with work and hadn’t had the chance to buy a gift.
At lunch, she called Jessica, asking her to go shopping with her in the evening to buy a gift.
