Chapter 482
---- Chapter 360 After going upstairs, Isabella was busy unwrapping the gift Franklin gave her while talking to Maggie. Maggie was listening when her phone suddenly buzzed. It was a message from Franklin. "T still have to rush back to Country A tomorrow afternoon to handle some matters. The divorce might have to be postponed by a week." Maggie frowned and started typing a reply. "Can't you go back to Country A on Monday morning?" Franklin replied quickly.noveldrama
"Tried, but it won't work, Sorry." Maggie pursed her lips and didn't respond further. Perhaps knowing she was upset, Franklin sent another message, assuring her, ---- "Even if I can't make it back by next Friday, I will definitely be back before the Monday after next. You can rest assured." Since Franklin gave a clear deadline for his return, Maggie had a better sense of the situation. She didn't reply and put down her phone.
Franklin probably knew she had read the messages but didn't respond, so he didn't send any more messages. After chatting with Maggie for a while, Isabella got sleepy and soon fell asleep. Maggie tucked her in, then went to take a shower. She was exhausted from the whole day, and after showering, she went to bed and prepared to turn off the lights. Isabella seemed to sense this. Just as Maggie lay down, Isabella crawled over into her arms, softly calling, "Mom...
Mom..." Maggie thought she had woken up and responded softly, "Sleep now." ---- But Isabella didn't say anything further. Looking down, Maggie realized Isabella hadn't actually woken up. Yet, she clung tightly to her clothes, gripping very hard. The next day. As scheduled, Franklin came to pick up Isabella. Isabella had already changed her clothes and was carrying her little school bag. When she learned Franklin had arrived, she grabbed Maggie's hand and hurried downstairs.
Madam Miller and Jason all knew Franklin was outside but pretended not to know. They neither came out to greet nor invited him in. When Isabella said goodbye to them, they only said, "Have fun, Isabella." Isabella held Maggie's hand as they left.
