Chapter 400
Leaving the Civil Center, Maggie made it back to the office in time for the morning meeting
Johnny leaned over and whispered, “All done? That fast?”
Maggie nodded.
With no disputes and both eager to proceed, the process was naturally efficient.
If there weren’t a cooling–off period, you’d be officially divorced today,” Johnny muttered. “But now you have to wait thirty days. When it ends, go get the certificate right away–don’t drag it out. Otherwise, like last time–you dove into the base again, missed the window, and had to start over. Such a hassle.”
“I know.”
Last time, they had agreed to collect the final certificate the very next day after the cooling period–but then life happened and they missed the window entirely.
Wednesday was Maggie’s grandfather’s death anniversary. He’d died in New York, but was buried back in Miami.
Tuesday at noon, Maggie and Old Mrs. Miller headed to the airport for Miami to pay respects. Isabella went along. Maggie hadn’t initially booked her ticket, but since Isabella wanted to go–and was staying with the Miller family–Maggie brought her.
Since leaving Miami years ago, the Millers rarely returned. After Old Mr. Miller passed, they only came back around his anniversary.
The family’s old house had already stood for ten or twenty years when they left Miami, and they’d been away
early two decades since. Even with regular cleaning, nearly forty years had left it shabby and unfit for living. So hey stayed in a hotel when they came.
Maggie and Jason both had work, so they planned to fly back to New York Wednesday night. As for the >thers–Miami was a city of grief for Old Mrs. Miller; she had no desire to linger. Hugo and his sister had been born and raised in New York; Miami meant little to them.
Still, whenever they returned, they would always stop by the old house.
After dinner that evening, they went back to the place. They were used to the dilapidation by now, but seeing it again still tugged at Maggie and Jason’s hearts.
They’d considered tearing it down and rebuilding, but the house held too many memories for the family–especially Sally’s room. Perhaps due to its location, it remained in relatively good shape.
[sabella had been in high spirits, but their sadness was contagious. She held Maggie’s hand and followed quietly.

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....
