After the secretary left, Julia’s mood grew heavier by the minute.

Technology was the foundation of any company’s development.
Now that the Jamison Group had stolen the spotlight, if Wilson Tech wanted to stay relevant in the autonomous vehicle market, it would need to achieve a new technological breakthrough–and fast.
But that kind of breakthrough was incredibly difficult.
So far, she had already invested six to seven hundred million yuan into Wilson Tech.
And now, with the disruption caused by the Jamison Group, Wilson Tech’s future was murky at best. If she kept investing, and the company failed to achieve influential technological advances, it would be the same as burning through one or two billion yuan for nothing.
But to give up now… she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
So, should she move forward–or pull back?
At that thought, her mind turned to Franklin.
But even he probably couldn’t predict whether the company could achieve a meaningful breakthrough in the future.
So even if she asked him, it wasn’t likely he could give her a clear answer.
Julia sat in deep thought for a long while, only snapping out of it when her secretary knocked again and reentered
the office.
It was already midday.
The secretary asked, “Miss Brown, would you like me to arrange lunch for you?”
Julia glanced at her phone but didn’t respond.
She believed that Franklin was even more aware than she was of the blow the Jamison Group had dealt to Wilson
Tech.
And knowing him, he must have already anticipated how people like Mr. Zack and President Wang would now view the company.
Right now was when she needed him the most.
But ever since dinner with Mr. Zack last night, he hadn’t reached out to her–not even once.

Her thoughts drifted to the way Franklin had looked at Maggie on stage during the press conference, eyes completely locked in, like he’d forgotten she even existed.
Her chest tightened, like someone had squeezed her heart hard.
So, just like her, he hadn’t been able to fully recover from the impact Maggie had made yesterday–had he?
Maggie had been busy for most of the day. Around five in the afternoon, her phone rang.
It was a call from Isabella.
She glanced at the screen, then answered. “Isabella, what’s up?”
“Mom, our school’s about to start summer break! There’s a parent–teacher conference tomorrow. Can you
me?”

Maggie paused–she hadn’t been involved in these things for a long time.

“Summer break already?”
“Yup!”
Coming back to herself, Maggie asked calmly, “Your dad’s not free?”
The Jamison Group press conference had likely sent Julia into full crisis mode, so Franklin probably didn’t have time for a parent meeting.
“Daddy is free,” Isabella pouted. “But I want you to come with me. Please, Mommy? Just come in the morning, okay?”
Maggie relented. “Alright. Got it.”
Isabella cheered. “Yay!”
“I still have work to finish–talk later. See you
“Okay! See you tomorrow, Mommy!”
tomorrow.”
The next day.
Maggie drove to Isabella’s school in the morning. When the little girl spotted her, she ran into her arms.
“Mommy!”

“Mm.” Maggie gently ruffled her hair and took her hand as they walked into the school.
Both Tommy’s Mom and the teacher were surprised to see Maggie personally attending the meeting.
After all, since that last parent child event, every school activity had basically been handled by Franklin.
The teacher greeted her, “Isabella’s mom, it’s been a while.”
“It has.”
After the greeting, the teacher updated her on Isabella’s recent performance in school.
From what she heard, the child seemed happy–both at school and at home.
Which meant Franklin was indeed taking good care of her.
During the meeting, Isabella clung to Maggie’s hand and whispered sweetly, “Mommy, it’s been so long since we ate out together. Can we go out for lunch after this?”
Maggie agreed. “Sure.”
But as they stepped out of the school gate after the meeting, hand in hand, they saw someone getting out of a car.
It was Franklin.
Isabella spotted him and lit up with joy, completely unsurprised. “Daddy, you came!”
Only after giving Maggie a quick glance did Franklin answer, “Mm.”

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....
