calling the morning’s conversation, just as she was debating whether to go home to pick up their daughter, she suddenly received a message from Franklin: [Something urgent came up, lunch canceled.]

Maggie looked at it without surprise.

Because she was used to it. In Franklin’s heart, whether it was business or meeting friends… anything was more important than his wife.

Plans made with her could be canceled at his whim.

He never considered her feelings.

Was she disappointed? Perhaps she would have been before.

Now she was numb to it.

Maggie felt even more lost. She had come here so eagerly, only to receive cold treatment from both.

Without realizing it, she had driven to the restaurant where she and Franklin had dined many times before.

Just as she was about to enter, she saw Franklin, Julia, and Isabella inside the restaurant.

Julia sat intimately beside her daughter.

While chatting with Franklin, she played with the little girl. Her daughter swung her legs happily. playing around with Julia, leaning over to eat pastries that Julia had bitten.

Franklin smiled as he served them both, but his gaze remained fixed on Julia across the table, as if she were the only one in his world.

Franklin took it, casually asking. “Where is she?”

“Well… Madam packed and returned home at noon. Didn’t you know?”

Franklin paused halfway up the stairs, turning his head, “She went back?”

Why Maggie had suddenly come to Country A–Franklin never gave her the chance to explain. He didn’t care either. Learning of her departure, he didn’t take it to heart.

Isabella was also somewhat surprised. When she heard the news, she felt a slight disappointment.

She had been thinking that if mom wasn’t going to join her and dad at the beach tomorrow, having mom’s company in the evening might actually be nice.

Besides, her hands would hurt while polishing seashells, and she had wanted mom to help her!
