Freedom 457
Chapter 457
“Yes,” Maggie replied softly. “Where is Isabella now?”
“She went downstairs to play,” Franklin answered as he rose from his seat. “Since you’re finally awake, shall we head down and start making the wine?”
The process of making wine was intricate and required patience and careful attention.
If they had truly been just an ordinary family of three, this would have been a special and enjoyable bonding experience.
But between Maggie and Franklin, things were never quite that simple.
Maggie wanted to suggest that they didn’t have to make the wine after all.
Before she could voice her hesitation, Franklin added, “Isabella’s waiting for us downstairs. Let’s not keep her waiting too long.”
Maggie paused briefly but remained silent.
When they reached the ground floor, Isabella spotted them immediately and ran over, throwing her arms around Maggie’s waist. “Mom, you’re finally awake! I already learned everything about making wine. Let’s start now!”
Maggie was left momentarily speechless.
Earlier, before their afternoon rest, they had picked the grapes together.
The grapes had been carefully washed and set aside to dry before they could be used.
They had gathered quite a large amount, so the estate manager asked them which containers they preferred for the wine.
There were jars of various sizes laid out.
Franklin glanced at Maggie, silently asking her to choose.
“Let’s divide the grapes into two jars,” Maggie suggested.
That way, each of them could take one jar home later.

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....
