---- Chapter 333 That night, when Maggie returned home, Isabe was already fast asleep in her room. After showering and getting ready for bed, Maggiey down-and almost instantly, Isabe scooted over in her sleep and snuggled into her arms, mumbling, "Mommy, you''re back?" "Mm-hmm. Sleep." There was no reply. Maggie looked down and realized she had already dozed off again. The next morning, while Johnny went out to negotiate a deal, Maggie headed to Wilson Group with a few engineers.


    She spent the entire morning deep in technical discussion. It wasn''t until the conversation wrapped up that she turned and realized Franklin was standing not far behind, silently listening to her. ---- She paused briefly, then looked away and said to the others around her, "Actually, there are a few academic papers that exin this very well. You might want to check them out." "Absolutely!" Maggie then listed a few titles and their authors.


    Just as she turned around to grab something, she met Julia''s gaze. Franklin noticed and walked over. "When did you get here?" Maggie withdrew her gaze. Julia nced at her and smiled. "Just now." In truth, she had been there for two or three minutes. But- When she arrived, she had seen him standing with his technical team, seriously listening to Maggie exin something. Even though she only saw his profile, the way he was looking at Maggie... there was admiration in his eyes.
