But when it came to Maggie, even though she smiled when interacting with the child during the game, it still felt a bit different.


    It was as though she and her husband and child were disconnected from each other.


    However, remembering the parent-teacher meetingst time, when Maggie''s daughter had a clear bond with that other woman, it was normal for Maggie to feel like an outsider in her husband and daughter''s rtionship. After all, who wouldn''t feel ufortable when their child became close to the person who disrupted their marriage?


    Thinking this, Tommy''s mom felt that Maggie must be struggling emotionally.


    But when she looked at Maggie, she didn''t know how to offerfort.


    Maggie noticed the pity and sympathy in her eyes.


    Maggie smiled.


    The most painful moments for her had passed.


    She knew that Julia must have been busy, which was why Franklin and Isabe had asked her to attend the activity. So, today, she truly felt like an outsider.


    At that moment, Franklin and Isabe returned..


    Isabe leaned over to see the video Maggie had filmed. Maggie sent the video to both her and Franklin,


    saying, "I''ve sent it to you. You can watch it on your tablet."


    "Okay," Isabe said.


    After three games, the parent-child activity games officially ended.


    Isabe had won two champion trophies.


    After receiving the trophies, Isabe held them up and asked Franklin to take pictures of her.

    Franklin took several photos for her,


    Then Isabe turned to Maggie, "Mom, take a few pictures of me with Dad."


    "Okay."


    Maggie took four or five pictures of Isabe and Franklin at her request.


    After sending them to Isabe, Franklin suddenly said, "Let me take a few pictures of you and Isabe as well."


    "Yes, Mom, hurry up."


    Mm."


    Franklin took Maggie''s phone and began taking photos of her and Isabe.


    After the photos were taken, Maggie got her phone back, and after a while, her phone rang.


    It was a call from Johnny.


    Maggie said, "I''m going to take this call."


    "Okay, Mom!" Isabe replied.


    "Mm," Franklin said.


    After talking for more than ten minutes about work, when Maggie turned back around, she saw that Franklin and Isabe seemed to be video-calling someone. She didn''t approach them.


    Instead, she started looking at the work documents Johnny had sent her.


    A whileter, Isabe waved at her. "Mom,e over so we can take a group photo, then we can go eat."


    Maggie walked over, and the three of them, along with the other parents, took a group photo.


    Teacher also took pictures of each family.


    With that, the parent-child activity at Isabe''s school came to an official end.


    Just as Maggie was about to leave, Franklin came over to retrieve his coat and asked, "Where do you want Mr. CEO. Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time


    98.99


    p eat?"


    Before Maggie could respond, Isabe raised her hand and said, "I want to eat BBQ, the same ce we wentst time!"


    Franklin pinched her cheek and said, "That ce was too far. You have ss this afternoon, and we''ll run out of time."


    "Okay," Isabe sighed. "Then let''s go for seafood?"


    Franklin didn''t answer. Instead, he asked Maggle, "What do you want to eat?"


    Maggie said, "You two go ahead, I won''t join you."


    "Ah? Mom''s not going?" Isabe asked.


    "Mm." She gently patted Isabe''s head. "Mom''s leaving first, you two enjoy your meal"


    "Okay..." Isabe looked disappointed.


    Maggie smiled lightly, said nothing more, and turned to leave without looking back.


    Franklin watched her retreating figure but didn''t say anything to stop her. Instead, he said to Isabe,


    "Let''s go too."


    "Okay."


    As soon as they got into the car, Franklin''s phone rang.


    It was a call from Grandma Wilson.


    He picked up the call, and Grandma Wilson immediately gritted her teeth. "Did you open a project for the Brown and Green families at home and at thepany?!" Franklin responded with an "Mm" and smiled. "You just found out?"


    "You!" Grandma Wilson became even angrier. "What do you mean by this? Are you nning to divorce Mag or something?"


    Otherwise, he wouldn''t be doing such a tant thing.


    Since he dared to bring the Brown and Green families into the Wilson family business, it meant he wasn''t afraid of her knowing. That meant he had already made up his mind.


    Mr. CEO, Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time


    99.1%


    Before he could say anything, Grandma Wilson continued, "I don''t agree! And if you want to open the project, I don''t oppose it, but you must change the people working on it. If you don''t change it, I''ll-" "Grandma," Franklin said in a calm tone, "I fulfilled the promises I made to you before we got married. Please honor your ownmitments and stop interfering with my decisions."


    In other words, the Brown and Green families were off-limits for her.


    "You..." Grandma Wilson was silent.


    Since Franklin took over the Wilson Corporation, it had been flourishing year after year.


    Over time, the major shareholders and the core management of thepany had all realized that following Franklin''s direction would almost always lead to sess.


    If she tried to intervene with him, the other shareholders would probably be the first to oppose it.


    This meant that now, the Wilson Corporation could not do without Franklin.


    It wasn''t that Franklin couldn''t survive without the Wilson Corporation.


    Using the Wilson Corporation as leverage wouldn''t work against him.


    As for emotional threats?


    As Franklin had said, marrying Maggie had already been apromise on his part.


    Grandma Wilson knew he wasn''t the type to keep retreating for anyone. Once he had what he wanted, he would be loyal to himself.


    If she really pushed him too far...
