NovelEnglish---- Chapter 422 After a long pause, Julia asked, "Anything else?" Isabella was sipping her drink and didn't follow.
"Hm? Anything else what?" "Things your dad took the initiative to do with your mom." Isabella set down the cup,
frowning. "No. After that Mommy got sick and had a fever. Daddy kept taking care of her. He said kids catch
things easily, so he wouldn't letnear. | only saw Mommy again once she got better." Julia stilled. "After your
mom got sick... your dad took care of her?" "Yeah." Julia lowered her eyes.
"Your great-grandmother told ---- him to, right?" Isabella shook her head. "No. Mommy started running a fever
before dawn yesterday. When Daddy found out she was sick, he took care of her and called people to fly
Grandpa Zane over by helicopter to see her. Great-Grandma only found out Mommy was sick after Grandpa Zane
arrived." Julia could guess who "Grandpa Zane" was-he was well-known in Boston. "And after Dr. Zane came,
your dad still looked after your mom? So he spent the whole day taking care of her?" she asked. Isabella nodded.
"Uh-huh.

Maggie?
Seeing Julia fall silent and stare fixedly at the journal, Isabella assumed she was absorbed in reading and didn't
bother her, though she herself got bored. She glanced toward the door and sighed. "Why is Daddy's phone call
taking so long?" Just then the door opened and Franklin cback. He ruffled her hair. "Hungry?" "A little." After
a few words with Isabella, Franklin noticed Julia still staring at the journal and asked, "Is there something you
don't understand?" ---- The implication was clear: askif you need help. Julia turned to look at him.
His attitude toward her seemed the sas always. But his attitude toward Maggie-that had undeniably
changed. Seeing her pensive, he asked, "What's wrong?" Julia shook her head, started to speak, then stopped.
She had brought the journal precisely because there were parts she didn't understand and she hoped Franklin
would help her sort them out.
But now, hearing him ask like this,
she suddenly thought-if Franklin saw
