Today, Franklin was as handsome and dignified as ever, tall andposed, and jour like before, bos expression would grow notably colder whenever he saw her. Like yesterday, Franklin merely nced at her before looking away,
aggle lowered her eyes and, just like yesterday, softly called out "President Franklin," waiting, undil he had walked away before entering thepany.
She didn''t know if Julia was at thepany today, nor did she care. She focused silently on her own
work.
At noon, her grandmother called.
"Mag. X City sent over amb. The weather''s getting cold now,e home for dinner tonight. Grandmother will have them prepare a wholemb feast for you." Hearing the elderlydy''s kind voice, warmth filled Maggie''s heart, "Alright, I''lle right after
work."
Apart from the morning, Maggie didn''t run into Franklin again that day.
That day, just as she was packing up to leave on time, Chad brought her a document, asking her to handle it urgently.
Maggie paused.
Though it wasbeled urgent, after scanning the contents, she knew this document wasn''t actually
time-sensitive.
In the past, she would have smiled and epted it, promising toplete it quickly.
Because she hadn''t wanted special treatment.
But today, she no longer wanted to strive for perfection-especially regarding matters involving
Franklin.
Besides, she was tired.

Now she just wanted to go home early to be with her grandmother, not work overtime.
She used to try hard to maintain good rtionships with Franklin''s personal secretaries.
But that was no longer necessary.
Moreover, Chad had wrongly used her yesterday without any basis, and she wasn''t magnanimous enough to act as if nothing had happened..
looked at Chad and said coldly, "I won''t do this work now. I''m leaving."
Chad''s face darkened, thinking Maggie was using her
Maggie, please maintain a proper work attitude. Doon for special treatment, "Secretary
you think this is your home?!"
Maggie picked up her bag, her attitude unchanged, "If you''re dissatisfied, you can fire me right now.
"You-"
Though he had been in Country A with Franklin, he knew about Maggie''s resignation letter.
While he had Franklin''s trust, thepany wasn''t his personal domain. He didn''t have the authority to simply tell Maggie to leave.
Moreover, Maggie was in Franklin''s grandmother''s good graces. If Maggieined to her, even. though he was certain Franklin would protect him, he still wouldn''te out ahead. Maggie ignored him and walked past.
Chad''s face turned green with anger as he left the secretarial department.
Jake, seeing his expression, asked, "What happened?"
Chad exined the situation.
Jake was very surprised.
He usually had more contact with Maggie than others.
He understood her personality somewhat.
He couldn''t help saying. "This doesn''t seem like something Maggie would do.

Could there be some misunderstanding?"
"There''s no misunderstanding. This is exactly what happened. In my view, Maggie is just using her position for special treatment. Where''s all this goodness you usually talk about?" Jake paused, "Maybe since she''s resigning, she''s starting to ck off?"
But Maggie had been working as diligently as evertely, no different from before.
then, Franklin walked over from nearby. "What''s going on?"
"It''s Secretary Maggie. She left work before finishing her tasks."
"If you''re dissatisfied, follow the procedures to terminate her employment."
It was clear Franklin didn''t care about this matter at all.
Jake and Chad were stunned.
Not because they thought Franklin was too indifferent about Maggie.
But from his tone, it seemed he didn''t even know Maggie had submitted her resignation?
Wasn''t her resignation his idea?
Had they misunderstood something?
Just as they were about to speak, Franklin''s phone rang.
It was Julia calling.
Franklin walked past them toward the elevator, answering the phone, "I''m leaving work now, I''ll be
there soon..."
Jake and Chad looked at each other in confusion.
Jake. "Maybe the CEO forgot?"
"That''s possible."
After all, Franklin had never paid much attention to matters concerning Maggie.
