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

---- He poured her a cup of tea. She thanked him, then asked, "Isabella's birthday's coming up. Any plans?" It had been two years since Maggie had last celebrated Isabella's birthday with her. Last year, she had intended to fly to Country A for it. But Franklin hadn't responded to her messages, and Isabella had seemed to be having so much fun that she hadn't asked for her mom. So Maggie had put it off until the very day of the birthday before making the trip. ---- And in the end...noveldrama

what she got after going all that way was indifference. Thinking of that memory, her voice grew colder. "You decide." By then, they'd be divorced. Isabella's custody would be with him. Whatever he wanted to do-he could decide. As for her, there was no guarantee she'd even be there. Just as that thought passed through her mind, she heard Isabella say, "Can Mommy be with me on my birthday?" Maggie gave her a gentle smile but didn't immediately say yes. "We'll see.

If Mommy's free, I'll come." Isabella's smile dimmed a little. "Okay..." Franklin was still busy. After placing their order, he answered several back-to-back calls. Maggie didn't speak to him much after that. Once the meal was nearly finished, Maggie was ready to leave, but Isabella clung to her arm, begging her to stay a little longer. She couldn't say no. ---- Franklin seemed to have wrapped up his business as well. Without a word, he accompanied them to a nearby arcade.

Maggie had no intention of talking to him, and he seemed to pick up on it. He didn't push, just stood a short distance behind them, watching her teach Isabella how to play the games. After a while, Isabella noticed that he hadn't joined in and grew a little worried. "Daddy, do you want to come play too?" Franklin glanced at Maggie, who still showed no reaction, then smiled faintly. "No need. I'm happy just watching you two play." "Okay then."
