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

Chapter 549

---- Chapter 421 While Maggie and Yulia caught up happily in their private room, elsewhere Franklin had just sat

down when his phone rang. He stepped out to answer. Julia pulled out a journal from her bag. "Isabella, Auntie's

going to read a bit. Can you play by yourself for now?" "Okay." Isabella, who had spent two years in France, had

strong French. Glancing at the cover, she said, "Oh, Daddy has this journal too." Julia knew Franklin always kept

up with the latest in Al. She also remembered asking him about this issue just days ago, and he'd said he'd

already read it. So she smiled.

"Yes, Auntie knows." That reminded Isabella of something. "The day Mommy chome, Daddy was worried

she'd be bored. He went upstairs and brought down books for her. Later that night, after she finished reading,

Daddy even talked with ---- her about this journal for a long time." Julia knew Maggie had recently visited the

Wilson old house. But that Franklin had gone out of his way to fetch her books-and then voluntarily chatted with

her about them-that, she hadn't known. Her hand stilled on the page. After two seconds, she asked, "He...

was the one who suggested it?" "Of course," Isabella nodded. Julia pressed her lips together. Perhaps Isabella

was exaggerating, she thought. Maybe Franklin had only wanted to hear more professional insights, since

Maggie was strong in this field. She forced a smile. "Isabella, how do you know Daddy did it just because he was

worried Mommy was bored?" "Because it was raining hard that day, and Mommy couldn't go to Great-

Grandma's, so she was stuck on the carpet playing with me. Daddy cover first and asked ---- if she wanted

to play chess. Mommy didn't.

Then he told her to go upstairs to read, but she didn't want to move. So Daddy went up himself and brought

books down for her." Julia's lashes trembled. Her grip on the journal tightened. "And... all of this, your daddy

initiated?" "Yeah." Isabella tilted her head, suddenly realizing, "Oh, you're right. Before, it was always Mommy

starting conversations with Daddy. But now it's the other way around-Daddy's the one talking to Mommy. Auntie,

| hadn't even noticed until you said it." Julia knew all too well how cold Franklin had been to Maggie before, how

indifferent.

Hearing this, and remembering how Franklin's attitude had shifted since Maggie had proven her brilliance in Al-

and recalling what had happened in Dallas-julia couldn't keep her expression steady anymore. She managed not

to let Isabella see. After a long silence, she drew a deep breath. "And in those days at the old house, he often

talked to her too?" ---- "Mm-hm. And when Mommy was working, Daddy even pulled up a chair beside her to

watch." Julia's smile faltered completely. Her voice was barely audible: "Really?"
