Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time novel Chapter 761

Chapter 791 Gone for Far Too Long

Maggie stepped through the front door and found Franklin’s grandmother sitting inside.

The older woman broke into a warm smile the second she saw her. “Mag, you’re home.”

Maggie smiled back, set down her purse, and took a seat beside her. “Grandma, when did you get back?”

Maggie knew Franklin’s grandmother had headed south to escape the summer heat a white back.

“I got in around noon today.” Franklin’s grandmother wrapped her hand around Maggie’s. “I picked up quite a few local goods down there and brought some over for your family.”

They chatted for a little while before dinner was served. Over the meal, Franklin’s grandmother told them many lighthearted stories about her time away in the South.

She and Maggie’s grandmother had not seen each other in ages, and they had no shortage of things to talk about.

Franklin’s grandmother stayed until nearly nine o’clock that evening before she got ready to leave.

As Maggie and her grandmother walked her out to the driveway, the smile faded from Franklin’s grandmother’s face. She hesitated

for a beat before speaking.

“I’ve heard all about what’s happened these past couple of days. Felix and I talked about the mess with the Brown family’s company with him. He promised us he won’t lift a finger to help them, but-”

Even if Franklin had agreed not to step in for the Browns right now, no one could be certain what he would do once public attention

died down.

Maggie and her grandmother had seen that possibility from the very start, even without Franklin’s grandmother spelling it out,

They also understood the real reason she’d come over tonight was to address this whole situation.

Franklin’s grandmother squeezed Maggie’s grandmother’s hand, her eyes glistening with tears.

“The Browns and Greens hurt Sally so badly, yet my ungrateful grandson still- Old friend, I… I owe you an apology. I know I have no right to show my face here, but I couldn’t pretend none of this ever happened.”

No matter what, she needed to state where the Wilson family stood on this crisis.

She feared their decades–long friendship might slowly crumble if she stayed silent.

“We’ve been close for so many years. Don’t say things like that.” Maggie’s grandmother quickly gripped her hand and patted it gently. “Of course I understand exactly where you’re coming from.”

Relief washed over Franklin’s grandmother, knowing Maggie and her grandmother grasped her position.

They talked a short while longer before Franklin’s grandmother climbed into her car and drove away.

Maggie then ficaded upstairs tn ract

Once in her tout, her phone pinged. She glanced down and saw photos of Isabella playing at home, sent over by the housekeeper from Franklin’s estate.

For the past few months, Isabella had called Maggie nearly every single day. sometimes two or three times in one day.

It always seemed like the little girl had endless things to talk about.

But ever since the night before last, Isabella had not reached out to her once. Maggie had aried calling her the previous morning, yet Isabella never picked up and never returned the missed call.

Maggie sent a quick reply to the housekeeper, then massaged her throbbing temples and set her phone aside to rest.

The next few days, Maggie stuck to her usual work schedule. When buried under heavy tasks, time slipped by fast.

On Friday, Maggie arrived for an industry seminar. The moment she walked through the doors, she ran straight into Harry and Levi.
