Chapter 741
Daphne’s mind went completely blank from shock.
“Wh-what did you just say?”
Yale, Rex, and Glen mirrored her reaction, every face etched with total disbelief.
Levi and Harry were even more stunned than Daphne and Yale. It took several long seconds for them to pull themselves together after Johnny’s bombshell, their eyes darting toward Franklin in complete shock.
Maggie and Julia were half-sisters, sharing the same father.
And Julia’s own mother had been the other woman, the home-wrecker who’d driven Maggie’s birth mother insane to steal her place.
They had heard fragments of what had happened to Maggie’s mother, but none of them had ever guessed Julia’s mother was the one behind it all.
Franklin had never breathed a word of this to any of them.
If Johnny’s claims were true….
Johnny wore a cold, sharp smile as he watched their stunned faces.
“Judging by how shocked you two are, I take it Julia never told you any of this.”
She had never shared this part of her past with them. No one could have guessed there was such a bitter, layered history between Maggie and Julia.
The revelation blindsided every single person present.
Daphne and Yale both turned to stare at Julia.
Johnny was far from finished.
“Maggie’s birth mother had been brilliant, bright-hearted, the beloved, sheltered daughter of her parents. After everything that happened, she ended up trapped in a psychiatric facility, lost in her own broken mind. Maggie’s grandfather already suffered from poor health, and his daughter’s tragedy weighed heavily on his heart. Within a few short years, he wasted away from grief.
“Everyone thought that was the end of it. But more than a decade after Julia’s mother destroyed Maggie’s mother’s marriage and broke her mind, Julia stepped right into her mother’s footsteps and started doing the exact same thing.”
Gasps rippled through the crowd. Johnny fixed his gaze on Julia, his tone dripping with scathing sarcasm.
“Ms. Brown, am I supposed to say your family doesn’t just inherit cruelty and ingratitude-you’ve got a generational legacy of home-wreckers too?”
He let out another bitter laugh.
“What a wonderful set of family values you carry. Honestly, in all my years, I’ve never met a whole family so shameless. You’ve truly opened my eyes.”

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....
