In the eyes of the Brown and Green families, although the Miller family had managed to stabilize their company, it would take some time before they turned a profit.
Moreover, who knew if Jasonâs company would ever succeed?
As for Maggie, although she had connections with Johnny, it was said that Johnny didnât actually value her as much as they had initially thought.
In other words, the Miller family was no longer in the same league as them.
Furthermore, they still had Franklin.
With the way Franklin valued their Julia, if she and Franklin got married, the Brown and Green families would soon rise to a new level. By then, the Miller family might not even be able to associate with them.
Thinking of this, Tracy chuckled secretly, casting a disdainful glance at Maggie before following the others to send Landon to the boysâ dormitory.
After helping Xavier settle his luggage and leaving the school, Maggie returned to her residence.
She had just entered when there was a knock at the door.
It was Tommyâs mother and daughter.
They had just returned from their hometown and, seeing Maggie home, had come specially to deliver some local specialties.
Maggie took the gifts and said, âThank you.â
Tommy obediently replied, âYouâre welcome!â
Then, she pulled a small ornament out of her pocket. âThis is a gift I specially kept for Isabella. Tomorrow,
Iâll bring it to school and give it to her!â
Tommy really liked Isabella.
Since Isabella had called her on New Yearâs Day, their relationship had improved a lot.
Tommy continued happily chatting with Maggie about things related to school, but Maggie, listening,

remembered that Isabella hadnât called her recently,
Tomorrow was the first day of school. Since Isabella hadnât called, it was clear that she didnât expect Maggie to take her to school.
That made sense, as Isabella didnât lack people to take her.
Tomorrow, it was likely that not just Franklin, but also Julia would be accompanying him to send Isabella
to school.
Maggie smiled, chatted a little longer with Tommy and her mother, and then took the local specialties they had given her to the living room.
The next day, she went back to the company and continued recruiting technical staff.
At lunch, Tommyâs mother sent her several photos of Isabella at a school event today.
One of the photos even featured both Julia and Franklin.
So, it really was because of Julia that Isabella didnât want Maggie to take her to school.
Maggie glanced at Franklin and Julia in the photo, just about to close it when she realized the photo had disappeared.
It seemed that Tommyâs mother had accidentally selected the photo, and upon realizing it, had quickly removed it.
As for her marriage with Franklin, Maggie hadnât discussed it much with Tommyâs mother.
After a divorce, the parent with custody of the child usually controls the frequency of visits from the nonâcustodial parent.
Tommyâs mother thought that Maggie didnât see Isabella often and assumed she must miss her child. So, after the event, she kindly sent Maggie some pictures of Isabella.
Sometimes, explaining oneâs personal situation to others could be a hassle.
Tommyâs mother was simply being thoughtful, and Maggie replied, âThank you.â
On Wednesday, Maggie and Johnny were handling some business near the Wilson familyâs old residence.
After finishing their business, as they were getting into the car, they saw a car coming from a side road.

That side road only led to the Wilson familyâs old residence.
Maggie recognized that it was Franklinâs usual car.
Just as Maggie was about to look away, Franklinâs car stopped by the roadside, and Franklin and Julia both got out of the car.
Maggie paused.
They were coming from the Wilson familyâs old residence.
So, Franklin was taking Julia to meet the matriarch of the Wilson family?
Johnny followed her gaze and also saw Franklin and Julia.
The Gray family and the Wilson family had a general relationship. Johnny had never been to the Wilson familyâs old residence, and he didnât know that it was located nearby.
Seeing Franklin and Julia, Johnny pursed his lips. âWhy are they here too?â
Maggie withdrew her gaze and said, âThatâs the only route leading to the Wilson familyâs old residence.â
Johnny was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized. âSo, Franklin is taking Julia back to meet his family now?â
Before Maggie could respond, Johnny chuckled with a hint of anger. âYour divorce certificate isnât finalized yet, right? And now heâs already bringing her back to the old residence? Is he really that eager?â
It did look like Franklin was quite eager.
But Maggie knew that Franklin had tried before to bring Julia back to meet his family.
The problem was that the matriarch didnât approve, and with the old man in poor health, along with various objections, Franklin had been forced to compromise.
Now, after all this time, he was finally taking Julia back to the old residence. This had clearly been a longâawaited decision.
Given that she and Franklin were now preparing for divorce, it was understandable that he would seize the opportunity when it came.
Johnny looked at her again and asked, âBy the way, how much longer until your divorce certificate is finalized?â

Maggie answered, âIâm not sure. The last time I asked Franklin, he said it was almost done.â
But since the last time she asked, so much time had passed, and she still hadnât received any update from
his side.
Johnny pursed his lips. âWho knows what heâs up to? Heâs the one eager to divorce and marry Julia, yet heâs the one dragging his feet about the divorce certificate.
Next time you see him, remind him to hurry up and finalize the divorce so you donât have to keep dealing
with him!â
Maggie smiled when she heard that. âOkay.â
