Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time (by Zora Pradeep) novel Chapter 504

Chapter 504

When Old Mrs. Miller learned that Maggie intended to file for divorce, she supported the decision.

After talking with the elderly lady, Maggie went upstairs. She was about to call Paul to discuss the divorce filing when a message from Franklin appeared on her phone.

“I did not make it back in time. That is my fault. I am sorry.”

Maggie read it and did not reply.

A moment later, Franklin sent a second message.

“Can you not file for divorce? If you can agree to this, I can give you three hundred billion as compensation.”

Maggie stared at the screen again, saying nothing.

She knew exactly why Franklin did not want her to file.

If she initiated the divorce and news leaked, Julia’s identity as the other woman would be exposed. With the right people stirring things up, it would not just harm Franklin’s career. Even his father’s political path could be affected.

If things reached that point, for the sake of the Wilson family’s future, Old Mrs. Wilson and Stella would almost certainly come to her personally… asking her to reconsider.

And the Wilson family had indeed helped the Miller family in the past.

Maggie sat there, thinking about all of this, motionless for a long time.

At that moment, Isabella ran in and threw herself into her arms. “Mommy, what are you doing?”

Maggie snapped back to herself, shook her head, and said, “It is late. Go take a bath, then go to bed early.”

“Okay.”

Isabella cheerfully dashed off to find her pajamas.

Watching Isabella’s carefree smile, Maggie felt her mind drift again.

After Isabella finished bathing, Maggie helped dry her hair. When she saw the little girl curled up and sleeping peacefully on her, she thought

for a long moment before finally replying to Franklin.

“All right.”

Franklin must have been waiting. The moment Maggie sent the message, his reply came almost immediately.

“Thank you. I will keep my word about the three hundred billion. Once the lawyers finish handling the paperwork, I will have the money transferred to your account as soon as I get back.”

Maggie responded, “I know.”

To her, that should have ended the conversation. But Franklin sent another message.

“I still need to work for a few more days. I will not be able to return to the United States yet.”

Maggie replied, “I know.”

Franklin sent another message. “I just texted Isabella. She said she is at the Miller family home. Thank you for taking care of everything while I

have been away.”

This time Maggie did not reply. She simply turned off her phone and went to sleep.

Johnny had also been closely following her divorce progress.

The next day, when he learned that she and Franklin still had not managed to finalize the divorce, he asked, “So what now? Why not just file for divorce already?”

Maggie said, “That is what I was thinking too, but…”
