Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time (by Zora Pradeep) novel Chapter 548

Chapter 548

Maggie helped his father?

What kind of help could Maggie possibly give his father?

Reed had never mentioned anything like that to him. Unable to hold back, Rex asked, “What was it about?”

Reed curled his lips. “None of your business.”

Rex fell silent.

Just then, the sound of a car pulling up came from outside.

Aside from Old Mrs. Hardin, who had just returned home from work, Nolan and Jordan arrived as well.

This was also Maggie’s first time meeting Old Mrs. Hardin.

Maggie and Johnny stood up to greet her.

Although it was their first meeting, Old Mrs. Hardin already knew quite a lot about Maggie.

She smiled warmly and patted Maggie’s hand. “I’ve heard Reed mention you before and wanted to meet you for a while. Now that I finally see you in person, I have to say, you’re even prettier than on TV.”

Maggie felt a little embarrassed. “You’re too kind.”

Rex frowned again.

He had no idea his mother even knew Maggie, and from the looks of it, she genuinely liked her.

After everyone took their seats, Old Mrs. Hardin glanced at Rex, who was sitting there frowning in thought. She knew exactly what he was confused about, but like her husband, she had no intention of explaining anything.

She simply said, “Don’t just sit there. Pour some coffee for everyone.”

Rex said nothing.

“Yes, ma’am.”

Reed had invited Maggie and the others to dinner not only to thank Maggie and Nolan for their help, but also to take the opportunity to have everyone gather and chat for a bit.

With several people of this level sitting together, it was not appropriate to discuss too many classified matters related to the base, but talking about the current political and business landscape in the U.S. and abroad was fair game.

Maggie went to the base often, so she naturally had a solid understanding of these topics.

When everyone discussed them, she was able to jump right in.

Rex knew Maggie was capable in the AI field, but he and Maggie had never really had an in depth conversation.

Given his own status and position, he had always believed his understanding of these matters was already more than sufficient.

But listening to Maggie talk with the others, he realized that in this area, he was actually no match for her.

A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.

However, seeing that his parents and Nolan showed no surprise at all, he suddenly understood.

They all seemed to know Maggie quite well.

But as far as he knew, Jordan and his parents had barely any interaction with Maggie.

So how could they know her this well?

As he struggled to make sense of it, he watched Maggie chatting with several powerful elders. She was calm, confident, neither deferential nor arrogant.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

Even though he did not know why Maggie was so familiar with his parents and Jordan, the way she carried herself made one thing increasingly clear to him.

Maggie was playing on a much higher level than he had ever assumed.

Seen that way, it was not hard to understand why Franklin could still be drawn to her so easily, even with Julia by his side.

Old Mrs. Hardin clearly liked Maggie. After chatting for a while, she could not help but sigh. “Among your generation, the most outstanding ones are you two, and…”
