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

---- She only managed to make Isabella a bowl of longevity noodles and hand her the gift before rushing off to the ---- meeting. That evening, after finishing work, it was already past nine o'clock. Looking at the time and thinking about how she'd left the gift earlier without much chance to talk to Isabella, Maggie's expression faltered. Johnny noticed her mood and asked, "What's wrong?" "It's Isabella's birthday today," Maggie said. Johnny understood Maggie's conflicted feelings.

He also knew that no matter what, Maggie still couldn't fully let go of Franklin in her heart. Seeing Maggie busy all day without time to call home once, he glanced at the time and said, "There's still time. You can go home and spend some time with her. "Okay," Maggie answered. ---- After leaving the company, Maggie drove home. When she arrived, the Rong matriarch was still awake. Seeing her come in, the old lady softly said, "You were gone all day. Franklin hasn't called either.

Isabella hasn't been very happy all day." Maggie was taken aback. She hadn't expected Franklin to go the entire day without calling. The old lady sighed and gently patted her hand. "She's still awake. Go upstairs and keep her company." Maggie nodded and went upstairs. Upstairs, Isabella lay on her bed reading comics. Seeing her come in, she casually greeted her, "Mom's home?" "Mm." Maggie put down her bag, paused for two seconds, then ---- walked over.

"sorry, Mom's been busy at work, so..." "I know." Isabella looked up at her. "Mom, I understand." Looking at her, Isabella seemed quite sensible, but Maggie knew she really wasn't happy. When Isabella was truly happy, she was very fond of acting spoiled. Before, when Isabella was upset, Maggie had many ways to cheer her up. But now, standing on the side and watching her, she suddenly didn't know what to say or do to make her feel better.

Only at that moment did Maggie realize-though their everyday interaction seemed unchanged, there was now a barrier between them in their hearts. As she pondered this, Isabella's phone suddenly rang. Isabella looked down to see the caller ID said "Dad." ---- She didn't seem very excited but quickly answered with a somewhat flat voice, "Hello." On the other end, Franklin smiled, "Isabella, happy birthday." Isabella kept looking down, flipping through her book expressionless.

Franklin seemed to sense her anger but didn't seem surprised. "Are you mad?" Isabella pursed her lips silently. "Sorry, Dad was on the plane and couldn't call earlier, so..." Still no response from Isabella. Then Franklin chuckled and said, "Dad's right outside your grandmother's neighborhood now. ---- Isabella, you" Hearing this, Isabella suddenly jumped up from the bed. "Dad, you're back? You're not lying to me, right?!" On the other end, Franklin's voice still held a smile.

"Mm, I came back especially to celebrate your birthday. It's just after ten now. I made it in time."noveldrama
