---- Chapter 359 When Isabe learned that Franklin had specially rushed back from abroad just to surprise her, she finally cheered up. Clutching her phone, she excitedly ran downstairs. Maggie paused for two seconds, then followed Isabe down and informed the security guard to let Franklin''s car into the courtyard. As Franklin''s car drove into the Miller family yard, Isabe ran out the door, excitedly throwing herself into Franklin''s arms as he stepped out of the car.
Today was her birthday, but Franklin hadn''t called once, and Maggie had been busy all day outside. She felt that neither of them really cared about her, and she was both wronged and sad. That''s why she had been unhappy all day.

Isabe''s feelings of hurt weren''t entirely because of Franklin.
But now that she had someone to lean on andfort her, the more Franklin spoke, the more wronged Isabe felt, and she cried louder and louder. Franklin didn''t stop her crying but simply held her and gently patted her back, silentlyforting her. After a while, Isabe''s tears eased, her mood slowly lifted, and the sobbing weakened and finally stopped. Seeing she had stopped crying, Franklin let go of her and handed her the gift he had prepared.
