NovelEnglishhapter 239 As for Julia being a stepmother... pfft!” Maggie remained calm.
She paused for a moment and said, "I'm sure my uncle and grandmother have already guessed about Isabella and Julia's relationship." "They probably didn't bring it up because they don't want to upset me." Johnny nodded in agreement. "They've been mentally prepared, and that's a good thing. The fact that they don't say anything shows they care more about you than about Isabella. As long as you're doing well, that's all that matters." Maggie smiled. "Yes, I understand." Then, she thought about her and Franklin's divorce progress.
To be honest, when she signed the divorce agreement with Franklin, she thought they would be divorced soon.
But months had passed, and they still hadn't finalized it.
She had asked Franklin many times before, and each time, he said it would be soon.
Because she knew that Franklin was more eager to get divorced than she was, she had just been waiting for his notice.

She decided to call Paul and ask about the divorce progress.
Paul asked her about it every week, and when he heard her inquiry, he replied, "Tomorrow is my scheduled meeting with Franklin's lawyer. I'll contact you once I have an update." "Okay," Maggie said, then paused and said calmly, "If the response is still unclear, tell them that I'm willing to walk away with nothing. I don't need anything from Franklin.
Just have them prepare a new divorce agreement forto sign as soon as possible." 15:56 O Chapter 239 Paul hesitated. "Walk away with nothing? Are you sure?" Franklin had been very generous, and the property he had given her was worth enough that she could live off it for a lifetime.
Paul didn't quite understand why she was willing to give it all up.
Maggie replied, "I'm sure, but I have one condition." She had never cared for his wealth. Even if he gave her things, she didn't feel sorry to let them go. However...
When Old Mrs. Wilson had fallen and was hospitalized, Franklin had given her two billion three villas in the sneighborhood where her grandmother lived.
yuan and Although Franklin had given her the villas later on, they were still considered part of the divorce property.
So, even though the property certificates were in her name, the houses didn't truly belong to her unless the divorce certificate was issued.
If she walked away with nothing, she would lose those three villas.
If she didn't claim them, after their divorce, Franklin might very well give the villas to the Brown or Green family. Knowing the Green family's temperament, if they got the villas, they would probably move into her grandmother's neighborhood and make her grandmother's life miserable.
Thinking of this, she told Paul, “I only want those three villas. I don't need him to give them to me; I'll pay him for them." In the past two months, she had made a decent incand could afford the villas now.
Paul understood her intention.
Although he thought this was a loss for her, he didn't try to persuade her further since she was firm in her decision.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThings changed quickly, and Paul soon contacted Franklin's lawyer to inform them of Maggie's request. About half an hour later, when Maggie was about to leave for dinner, Franklin called.
15:56 Chapter 239 Knowing the reason for the call, she answered the phone.
"Hello?" she said.
On the other end, Franklin asked, "Have you had dinner?" Maggie replied, "Not yet." She didn't want to chat with him much and said, “My request should have been conveyed by your lawyer."
"I've heard," Franklin said. "Since this is your wish, I agree. However, after Grandma finds out about our divorce and looks over the agreement, I think you should speak with her about the changes. Once she agrees, I'll handle the rest." Old Mrs. Wilson cared about her, and Maggie knew she would be concerned about their property division.
Hearing this, Maggie responded indifferently, "Let's not tell her fam прид now. Let's just finalize the divorce certificate first." "That's a good idea," Franklin said with a chuckle. “You've learned to act impulsively." Maggie didn't feel like engaging in small talk with him.
She simply said, "It's the weekend tomorrow, so we'll go on Monday." Franklin's tone sounded somewhat helpless. “But we can't. Grandma loves you too much and worries I'll mistreat you.
When she found out we were getting divorced, she insisted I sign an agreement stating that if we don't inform herab inform her about changes to the divorce agreement, she'll have the right to confiscate more than half of my assets." Maggie stopped in her tracks. "When did this happen?" "During the New Year," he replied.
Maggie frowned, "Why didn't you tellearlier?" He laughed. "I didn't expect you to want to change the agreement." 15:57
