Chapter 436
In Sophia’s mind, Iranklin only had eyes for her sister Julia and couldn’t possibly like Maggie. So even when she saw Franklin with Maggie, she didn’t think much of it -obviously he was there for Isabella.
Just then, she noticed Isabella standing in front of Maggie, tipping her chin up as she spoke to her.
Sophia let out a derisive snort.
Isabella didn’t see Sophia at all; she was completely captivated by the drums.
“Mommy, the drum set looks super cool. I want to learn!” she said, excited.
Maggie, of course, wouldn’t object.
But with her and Franklin about to finalize their divorce–and custody with Franklin–Isabella’s lessons should technically be his call.
Maggie smiled lightly. “You have to ask your dad.”
Isabella turned sideways. “Daddy, can I?”
Franklin smiled. “You can.”
“Yay!” Isabella cheered, grabbing Maggie with one hand and Franklin with the other. “Let’s go sign up now!”
Franklin didn’t move. He bent and patted her head. “No rush. If you want to learn, why don’t we pick out a drum set you like first? Once we have it, I’D
find a teacher to come to the house.”
Isabella’s eyes lit up. “Yes, yes! Let’s go now! I want the coolest one!”
She dropped Franklin’s hand and tugged Maggie out of the crowd, then looked back. “Daddy, where do we buy it?”
Franklin took out his phone and followed them. “I’ll make a call and ask.”
“Okay!”
Maggie was about to tell Isabella she shouldn’t come along, but the girl was so happy and insistent–and Franklin was clearly making calls–that Maggie couldn’t bring herself to refuse.
After the call, Franklin stepped up beside her. “Should I ride with you?”
Maggie hadn’t answered yet when Isabella chirped, “Yes, yes!”
Given the situation, how could Maggie say no?
Without another word, she left the square with Isabella and Franklin and headed for the underground parking lot.
Sophia never thought much of Maggie, but when she saw the three of them looking so much like a happy little family, she felt a stab of irritation–even knowing Franklin despised Maggie,
Then she noticed how fond Maggie seemed of Isabella and remembered that not only did Franklin dislike Maggie, but even her own beloved daughter preferred Julia. Her mood lifted at once.
Her boba finally came.
She shot a sneer at Maggie’s retreating back, grabbed her drink, and left.

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....
