Chapter 371
Just as Maggie was about to respond, Tranklin cut in first:
“Your mom is busy with work. Don’t bother her.”
Isabella pouted, clearly unhappy, and looked up at Maggie with pleading eyes
Maggie said gently,
“Mommy has to go to a meeting, then head to another company to talk business. It’s not convenient to bring you this time. Maybe next time, okay?”
Though disappointed, Isabella let go reluctantly, her voice low:
“…Okay.”
Since the old lady still hadn’t woken up, and there was little to say between the Madam Miller and Franklin, she left together with Maggie.
Inside the elevator, she said quietly,
“It’s not that he’s worried Isabella will disturb your work–he’s worried that if she goes with you
Maggie understood what she meant.

If news spread that she and Franklin hadn’t actually finalized their divorce, the first person to suffer would be
In order to protect Julia, Franklin naturally had to keep the truth–that he and his “ex–wife” were still legally married–under wraps until the divorce
was finalized.
Once downstairs, Maggie watched the Madam Miller’s car drive off before turning to get into her own vehicle.
At that moment, Harry had just arrived at the hospital. The moment he got out of the car, he caught sight of Maggie’s side profile.
He instinctively wanted to call out to her–but
was already driving off through the exit.
The words on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back down.
Levi came around from the driver’s side and clapped him on the shoulder.
“What are you daydreaming about? Let’s go.”
Harry snapped out of it and walked inside with Levi.
When they entered the hospital, Isabella greeted them cheerfully,
“Uncle Harry, Uncle Levi!”
Harry smiled, ruffled Isabella’s hair, and set the fruit basket he brought down on a side table.
-At that moment, his gaze landed on the gift that Maggie and Madam Miller had brought earlier.
On the box was a small handwritten card with Maggie’s blessings for the old lady’s recovery–signed with the name “Maggie.”
Seeing her handwriting, a soft tenderness crept into Harry’s chest. He stood there in a daze, eyes fixed on that delicate signature.
Levi called out to him,
“Harry, come sit. What are you staring at?”
Harry snapped out of it and turned toward him, only to realize both Levi and Franklin were now looking at him.

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....
