Chapter 709
“Terribly sorry, Dr. Mercer. I couldn’t hold back my curiosity for a second, and I’ve rudely interrupted your conversation. I offer my sincerest apologies for barging in like this.”
Though Dr. Mercer did not know the man before him, common courtesy toward a guest at his own institute’s celebration kept him from pressing the matter any further.
He gave a faint, dismissive nod, his tone calm and even.
“No harm done.”
The words barely left his lips when he felt every pair of eyes in the ballroom lock onto his frame.
He could read the unspoken question swirling in each curious stare. Everyone had caught wind of his plan to forma invite Maggie to become his exclusive, hand-picked protégé, and they were all waiting to see how the evening’s big reveal would unfold.
Dr. Mercer let a warm, easy smile tug at his lips. His gaze lingered gently on Maggie for a long beat, letting the weigh of his quiet admiration settle over her before he swept his line of sight across the entire assembly of guests.
He then turned and strode toward the raised stage at the front of the hall, his research assistant falling into step quietly at his side.
He leaned against the podium, his warm smile never fading as he addressed the packed room of industry elites, scholars, and distinguished guests.
“I want to extend my deepest gratitude to every single one of you who’s taken the time out of your busy schedules to join us tonight for our institute’s anniversary celebration.
“As for the news circulating about me taking on a personal protégé, I’d originally planned to wait until this stage to formally ask Ms. Miller for her answer in front of all of you as witnesses.
“But since word has already gotten out ahead of my announcement, I’ll ask all of you to stay and bear witness to this
moment with me right now.”
He shifted his full attention to Maggie, the soft sincerity in his voice growing thicker as he spoke, every word
deliberate and heartfelt.
“I’ve been addressing you as Ms. Miller up to this point, yet I’ve found myself hoping I might earn the right to call you Maggie-the name all your close friends use for you, a name that feels far more natural and warm between us.
“Maggie, I hold a genuine, earnest wish to take you on as my official student. Would you be willing to accept me as
your mentor?”

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....
