Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time (by Zora Pradeep) novel Chapter 594

Chapter 594

There was still a lot to get through on the project with Benjamin and the others.

The next day, when Maggie showed up as planned to go over things, Benjamin was there. Franklin wasn’t

le’d sent one of his company’s senior executives to sit in for him.

‘rom the very beginning of this partnership, through all the early negotiations and right up until now, Franklin had always handled dungs himself. This was he first time he’d been absent.

ind it didn’t stop there. The next two or three meetings came and went without Franklin showing up either.

Maggie didn’t react. Kept her expression exactly the same as always,

is far as she was concerned, the only thing that mattered was that the project kept moving. It made no difference to her who showed up on the other side of the

able.

enjamin and Maggie had known each other long enough by now that, if he was being honest, he genuinely admired her. She was sharp, she was capable, and he never let whatever was going on between her and Franklin bleed into their work. Not once, the entire time.

fter they wrapped up, Benjamin called Franklin. “I’ll say this straight up, Maggie is seriously good at what she does. But she’s also completely done with you motionally. Zero.”

ranklin: “Is that so.”

enjamin: “You still at the hospital? I’ve actually got a bit of time right now. Want me to swing by?”

he accident with Franklin and Julia had happened just a few days ago, and Benjamin had heard about it like everyone else. As Franklin’s friend, stopping by to heck on Julia was the natural thing to do. He’d just been slammed the past couple of days and hadn’t been able to make it work.

enjamin and Julia had never actually met before.

y now, the three–way collaboration between Maggie, Benjamin, and Franklin was something Julia and the Brown and Green families all knew about. They just adn’t had a real opening to ask about it, given how rocky things had gotten between Julia and Franklin.

When word got out that Benjamin was coming to see Julia, everyone was pleased, Julia included.

nder the current circumstances, Franklin bringing Benjamin over to visit meant something. It meant he was taking Julia seriously again.

t the hospital, Franklin introduced them, they exchanged some pleasantries, and then Franklin poured Benjamin some tea and asked, “How’s the project

oming along? Where are things at?”

enjamin: “Going smoothly.”

nce they got onto the subject of the collaboration, Benjamin couldn’t help but go into a bit more detail. Though he didn’t linger long at the hospital. After a few ore polite words with Julia, he headed out.

ot long after he left, Levi and Harry arrived.

hey’d been making regular trips to see Julia over the past few days.

auren watched the four of them in the room, talking and laughing, and couldn’t help but say, “It’s been a while since I’ve seen the four of them like this.“

nd wasn’t that the truth.

ver since things fell apart between Julia and Franklin, ever since Harry had come out and said plainly that he had no feelings for Sophia and didn’t want nyone pushing them together anymore, Franklin had pulled back from Julia, and Harry had pulled back from both families.

ut because Julia had saved Franklin, these past few days Harry’s visits had carried a different energy. He was still cool toward Sophia, but toward both families s a whole, he’d warmed up noticeably compared to how things had been.
