Chapter 154
The next morning, around 8 AM, Maggie, Xavier, and Hugo arrived at the dock.
Harry and Daisy were already there.
When Daisy saw Maggie, she ran up to her. “Aunt Maggie!”
Maggie bent down to hug Daisy and smiled. “Daisy, long time no see.”
Noticing that Xavier and Hugo looked a little confused as they observed Harry and Daisy, Maggie
introduced them to each other.
Harry was very polite and said, “Hello.”
He then took out some gifts for them, saying, “I wasn’t sure what you’d like, so I brought a few things. I hope you like them.”

Everyone was surprised at how thoughtful and considerate Harry was.
Not only did Xavier and Hugo seem taken aback, but even Maggie paused for a moment.
After some small talk, they boarded the boat.
Xavier and Hugo already knew about Maggie’s impending divorce with Franklin.
Seeing how Maggie was holding Daisy’s hand and speaking so kindly to her, Xavier exchanged a glance with Hugo: “Is this the ber–in–law?”
Hugo shrugged. “I’m not sure, maybe?”
Seeing that Maggie and Harry weren’t paying attention to them, Hugo leaned toward her brother and whispered, “He’s quite handsome.”
But compared to the previous brother–in–law, he seemed much more approachable.
Watching Maggie interact with Daisy, they both felt a bit conflicted.
They knew that Maggie was likely going to lose the custody battle for Isabella.
Not only was Franklin unwilling to give up custody, but they had also noticed that Isabella, who had

turned to the country recently, had been spending less time with Maggie and had preferred staying with Franklin.
They couldn’t imagine how heartbreaking this must have been for Maggie,
Now that they saw her developing a new relationship, they were genuinely happy for her.
They also joined in to play with Daisy.
They thought that if they were kind to Harry’s family, maybe when Maggie married him, his family
would treat them well too.
Xavier and Hugo came over to ask Daisy if she wanted to play on the water slide.
Seeing the colorful water slide nearby, Daisy immediately nodded eagerly.
The water slide on the yacht was indoors, and it was hot spring–style, so it wouldn’t be cold even in the
middle of winter.
The slide was something both adults and kids could enjoy, but it was mostly a playground for teenagers
and children.

Maggie and Harry slid down a few times but lost interest.
However, Daisy, Xavier, and Hugo had a blast.
Maggie sat by the side, enjoying the warm water like a hot spring.
At this moment, Harry handed her a drink.
“Thank you,” Maggie said, taking it.
Harry sat down not far from her and said, “You’re welcome.”
He then asked, “How old are they?”
“Xavier is 16, Hugo is 14.”
→“Do you often take them out to play?”
Maggie shook her head. “Used to, but recently I’ve been busy with work and don’t have much time.”
Just then, Harry’s phone rang.

Noticing the caller ID, Harry stood up and said, “I’m going to take this call.”
Maggie nodded.
He walked a little further before answering, “Frank.”
Franklin’s voice came through the line. “Where are you?”
“On the yacht.”
“Are you out at sea?”
“Yes.” Harry’s eyes flickered over to Maggie, who was sitting by herself. “Is there something you need?”
Franklin replied, “Isabella wants to play with Daisy, so I’m calling to ask if you could bring her over.”
“The boat is out at sea, maybe next time.”
“Alright.”
Franklin didn’t say anything further and hung up.
At noon, the five of them sat down for a seafood feast.
In the afternoon, they lay out on the deck, basking in the sun while fishing.
Daisy, Xavier, and Hugo played until they were exhausted. After a while, they lay down on the lounge chairs and fell asleep.
Harry had some work to attend to and went to a quieter spot to make a few calls.
When he returned, he saw Maggie engrossed in a book.
Though Harry had studied finance in college, he immediately recognized the book in her hands.
It was a book that he often saw Franklin reading.
Seeing how focused Maggie was, Harry stopped in his tracks.
Maggie was so absorbed in her reading that she didn’t notice his return until the wind blew Daisy’s blanket open. It was the rustling sound that made her realize Harry was back
Harry sat down in a chair and asked, “This book… do you also read it often?”

Alguém saberia dizer o que houve com o livro, sem atualização a tempos...
Nada de episódio novo?...
Does the book stop? When are we going to get a new chapter?...
Olá, A história parou no capítulo 288? O nome do livro me gerou mais expectativas, quando ela realmente vai desprezar os dois e brilhar???...
Everytime I read new updates I am hoping to see Maggie completely moving on with her life not always checking where Franklin is up to with Julia. I think everyone reading this story by now understand that Franklin doesn't care about Julia. So what is the point of always pointing out how indifferent Franklin is to Maggie and how attentive he is towards Julia....
What does Helen mean Maggie is still married? Married to whom? Franklin has made it clear that he doesn't consider her anything and is flaunting his relationship with Julia for anyone who has eyes to witness it.So Maggie should wait for the divorce to be finalized to date. Isn't that double standards. And Franklin is dragging the divorce deliberately since divorced or not he does what he wants without any consequences. Really women are emotionally oppressed even authors only know that point of view 😕...
I feel sad for Maggie and all married women who have to endure emotional abuse with no end in sight. By the look of it,Franklin doesn't want to divorce Maggie for whatever reason. Either the reason is good or bad, Maggie shouldn't be humiliated like this just because she loves him. And the grandmother should be helping her get a divorce not emotionally blackmailing her, if she really cared about her. Franklin is using Maggie's love for the grandmother to abuse her. Is really loving people wrong? Author this one-sided hurt is not right. Let Maggie move on with dignity. It shouldn't end up with Franklin professing his love for her and her accepting it....
