I'll send someone over shortly to bring you home." Even though Maggie had been busy with work these past few days, and they hadn't spent that much ttogether, Isabella had clearly been very happy at the Miller residence.
---- She wasn't quite ready to leave, Hearing Franklin's words, her first instinct was to protest, "Daddy, I'd rather-" But before she could finish, something seemed to click in her mind.

After hanging up, Isabella clung to Maggie's arm, clearly reluctant.
"Mommy, I don't want to go..." When Franklin had said he would send someone over, her first reaction had been refusal. But if Maggie had guessed right, Isabella must've changed her mind because she didn't want to disappoint Julia. Even if she didn't want to leave, she was still willing to go-for her. Maggie gently stroked her hair and softly reminded her, "Go pack up your things. Daddy will be here soon." But Isabella pouted and held her arm tighter.
"Mommy, I told you already-I brought all this stuff over because I'm planning ---- to stay again during summer break! That way I won't have to pack everything again. It hasn't even been that many days yet-did you forget?" Maggie hadn't forgotten. It's just that a couple of days ago, when Isabella had said that, she hadn't given her a clear response. After all, by summer, she and Franklin would likely be officially divorced. From then on, she intended to follow the visitation agreement strictly.
