Chapter 292
As soon as Maggie finished speaking, before Jimmy could react, her communicator rang.
Seeing the message on the communicator, Maggie quickly said, “There’s an urgent matter in the data center. I have to go,” and hurriedly left.
The next morning, she left the base.
After resting for a day at home, she went back to work at Cole.
Cole and Wilson Tech had officially begun their collaboration.
On the day she returned to Cole, Johnny happened to be heading to Wilson Tech for a meeting.
Previously, when discussing contracts with Franklin, she could completely leave the matter to Johnny or Charlie to handle.
However, for this project between Cole and Wilson Tech, her involvement was crucial.
This meeting was to discuss the core technologies of the cooperation between the two companies. Therefore, after Maggie returned to the office, she went with Johnny to Wilson Tech.
They were accompanied by Glen and other technical staff members.
When they arrived at the meeting room door, Franklin and his two secretaries, along with Jake, happened to be walking toward the room from the other end.
Upon seeing them, Franklin greeted Johnny politely.
Since Maggie had left Wilson Tech, Jake hadn’t seen her much. However, Chad had mentioned her working at Cole.
In the past few days, Johnny had already been to Wilson Tech two or three times, but Maggie hadn’t accompanied him.
They all thought she would no longer appear at Wilson Tech, but unexpectedly…
Franklin naturally saw Maggie and Glen.
Whether it was to Maggie or to Glen, he acted as if he didn’t recognize them, briefly glancing at them before retracting his gaze and entering the meeting room with Johnny.
Glen didn’t want others to know that he knew Franklin.
Franklin’s attitude suited him just fine.
Maggie had always gotten along well with Jake, so when she saw him after such a long time, she nodded and greeted him, “Jake, long time no see.”
“Long time no see.”
Glen, seeing this, asked, “Do you know him?”
“I used to work here,” Maggie replied.
Glen didn’t know the nature of her relationship with Franklin. Hearing this, he assumed she had worked as a technical staff member at Wilson Tech. He didn’t think much of it, and since they had business to discuss, he didn’t ask any further.
Just as Maggie and Glen sat down, someone pushed the door open and entered.
The person who came in was Professor Mark from MIT.
He was also involved in the project with Wilson Tech.
As they left the meeting room, Professor Mark said to Franklin, “Speaking of which, I haven’t seen Julia in a long time. I heard she’ll be staying in the capital for development so I’ll probably have fewer chances to meet her in the future. I was wondering if I could invite her along, would that be alright with you, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Gray?”
Hearing this, he smiled lightly and said, “I have no objection
Franklin asked, “You two know each other?”
“I was her mentor in college,” Professor Mark chuckled. “She showed impressive talent back then. Now that she’s become Dr. Smith’s PhD student, she’s certainly living up to expectations.”
Franklin nodded. “I’ll get in touch with her.”
Half an hour later, when Maggie, Franklin, and Johnny arrived at the restaurant, Julia and Sophia had just gotten out of the car.
Seeing Professor Mark, Julia quickly walked up to greet him. Professor, long time no see.”
After greeting Julia, Professor Mark turned to look at Johnny and smiled, “Mr. Gray, you and Julia must already know each other, right?”
Johnny glanced at Julia and nodded, “We know each other.”
Professor Mark smiled. “You’re both rising stars in the field, you should communicate more.”
Julia noticed how Johnny had looked at her just now.
She slightly furrowed her brow.
She had thought that after learning she was Dr. Smith’s PhD student, Johnny would regard her more highly.
After all, if they were to discuss professional topics, she thought she’d have more in common with him.
But the way Johnny looked at her just now was no different from before.

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....
