Chapter 289
Old Madam Brown had invited some of the influential figures from Y City, including close relatives and important figures.
Some of these people knew about the feud between the Brown and Miller families. Though they hadn’t seen Old Madam Miller in years, when they saw her, they immediately recognized her.
Hearing Maggie call her “Grandma” and seeing her looking around 25 or 26, they quickly put two and two together. The beautiful young woman must be Old Madam Brown’s other granddaughter.
However, this granddaughter had not been seen in the Brown family since her father divorced his first wife, Old
Madam Brown’s son.
They had previously heard rumors that after Old Madam Brown’s son remarried his second wife, she completely
cut ties with her previous granddaughter. They had assumed this was just a rumor.
But after seeing Old Madam Brown’s cold and indifferent reaction to the girl, they quickly realized it wasn’t a
rumor.
Moreover, Logan, her biological father, was also present, but he hadn’t said a word. It seemed like he, too, had no intention of acknowledging this daughter.
Many years ago, when Logan insisted on divorcing his wife from the prominent Miller family to marry a poor girl, everyone thought he had lost his mind.
However, after so many years, and hearing rumors that the Miller family had been on the brink of bankruptcy, while the Brown family had flourished with the rise of the granddaughter from the poor girl, they couldn’t help but realize that perhaps Old Madam Brown and Logan had made the right choice back then.
As the Brown family was now thriving, these influential figures were willing to travel from Y City to attend the birthday celebration of Old Madam Brown, showing full respect to the Brown family, even though they had little personal connection with them.
After the people from Y City recognized Old Madam Miller, they noticed that no one from the Brown or Green families had said anything. It was clear that the Brown family didn’t want their past with the Miller family to be publicly discussed.
Seeing this, even though they recognized Old Madam Miller, no one took the initiative to greet her..
Some of them, however, shifted their attention to Julia and Landon, and in front of Maggie and Old Madam Miller, they complimented Old Madam Brown, saying, “Old Madam, these grandchildren of yours are outstanding in both looks and other aspects. You must be truly blessed.”
Julia and Landon were indeed the pride of the Brown family.

Chapter 289
Old Madam Miller did not glance at Maggie again.
Looking at and Julia with full affection, she smiled and said, “Oh, not at all…”
What Old Madam Miller said next, Maggie didn’t hear clearly, as she and Old Madam Miller had already moved past the crowd and walked further away.
As for Franklin, once she had seen him at the beginning, she didn’t pay him any more attention.
She felt sorry for Isabella and urged Maggie to pick up the call.
Maggie, understanding her grandmother’s concern, had no choice but to stand up and walk to a quieter place to answer the call.
Isabella was very happy that Maggie had taken her call.
She quickly said, “Mom, Sunday is Mother’s Day, and I’ve prepared a gift for you. I’ll come find you, okay?”
Mother’s Day was indeed a special occasion.
After a brief pause, Maggie replied softly, “Okay.”
“The sir hasn’t come back yet, and the young miss is playing in the room,” Isabella added.
Maggie didn’t say anything in response.
Speaking of which, Isabella was technically Old Madam Miller’s great–granddaughter.
Julia always claimed to be sincere in her treatment of Isabella, yet she hadn’t even considered bringing her along to Old Madam Miller’s birthday celebration. Was this really the way she cared for Isabella?
Was it that simple a matter that Franklin couldn’t see?
But, given Franklin’s feelings for Julia, surely he would unconditionally believe her as long as Julia provided a simple excuse?

The readers' comments on the novel: Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time
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....
