Chapter 451
Julia’s group left the campsite around noon. Maggie and Johnny left later in the afternoon.
After the trip, on Monday, Maggie officially returned to work.
Since Franklin had gone abroad on business, Isabella came to stay with the Millers the day after Maggie got back from camping.
After a busy week, on Tuesday afternoon of the second week, Maggie received a call from Isabella:Franklin was back, and she’d be going home that night instead of to the Miller house.
“Okay. Mommy knows,” Maggie said.
Hanging up, she thought of the divorce. Their cooling–off period had ended the previous week.
Now that Franklin was back from his trip, it was the perfect time to proceed.
She checked her phone–no message from him about the divorce.
Assuming he was busy, she set the phone down and kept working.
She checked again two or three times. Even by after nine that evening–when she finally wrapped up–there was still nothing from Franklin.
Maggie stared at the screen, paused, then sent him a message: “I’m free tomorrow.”
There was no reply that night.
Not until the next morning, while she was getting ready for work, did Franklin finally text:“Sorry, I’m not free today.”
Maggie picked up her phone to respond-
Another message arrived: “I’ll contact you when I have time.”
She hesitated, then typed:“Make it soon.”
Franklin:All right.
She put the phone down and headed to work.
She went to Wilson Group to handle a few matters, and at noon joined some of the team for lunch.
As they entered the restaurant, they ran into members of the Brown family.
Many at Wilson Group recognized Julia. “Miss Brown,” they greeted.
Julia nodded and glanced at Maggie. “Out with partners for lunch?”
“Yes. This is Miss Miller–Cole’s key staffer. I believe you’ve met.”
Julia gave a cool nod, cast Maggie a perfunctory look, and moved her eyes away.
Maggie could feel the Browns‘ and Greens‘ gazes land on her, but she pretended not to notice.
“I won’t keep you,” Julia said. “Enjoy your meal.”
“You’re too kind, Miss Brown.”
Chapter 451
Because Franklin valued Julia, Wilson Group’s senior staff remained deferential.

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....
