Chapter 352 That afternoon, once Julia had finished her work, she tried to call Franklin to invite him to dinner. She made several calls, but none of them went through. In the end, she called his assistant, Chad. As soon as Chad picked up, she asked, "I can't reach Franklin. Is he still busy?" Chad seemed slightly surprised. "The boss flew abroad on a business trip this afternoon. Didn't he tell you?" Julia froze. He hadn't told her. Nota word.
"Was the trip arranged last-minute today?" ---- "Yes." Even if it had been a last-minute decision, he definitely had enough tto at least call or text her. But he hadn't said a single thing... At that thought, her expression dimmed slightly. After a pause, she picked up her bag, left her hoffice, and called Isabella on her way out. Isabella was lying on the living room floor, working on a puzzle. Seeing the caller ID, she quickly answered. "Aunt Julia?" "Mm." Julia's voice was gentle.
"You're hnow?" "Yup, I'm home." Julia smiled, "Did you have fun going to the parent-teacher meeting with your dad today?" Hearing this, Isabella laughed cheerfully. "aunt Julia, you got it wrong! It wasn't Daddy who cto the ---- meeting-it was Mommy!" The mention of Maggie made Julia's smile falter just a little. "Tsee..." After a pause, she continued, "When I spoke to your dad on the phone at lunch, I asked him if your meeting was done. He said it was, so I assumed he'd been the one who went." Because Maggie had cto the meeting, Isabella had been in a great mood all day.
