Chapter 204 

Franklin, having finished packing up his laptop, got out of the car. Upon hearing her, he slowly responded, “Your mom isn’t here.” 

Isabella stopped in her tracks, turned back to look at him, “Huh? Mom isn’t here?” 

“Mm.” 

“Is Mom still busy?” 

Franklin gently patted her head with his big hand, “Maybe you can call her to ask.” 

“Oh…” 

Recently, when she tried calling Mom, she hadn’t answered.

At home, everything was fine, but while she was abroad these past few days, Dad and Aunty Julie weren’t there–though they called and video–chatted with her every day, they weren’t physically with her. Being alone overseas, she often felt lonely and homesick. 

In the first few days abroad, what she missed the most was actually Mom. 

She called her every day during those days, but Mom never picked up. 

Later, she gradually adapted, understanding that Mom was likely busy and didn’t have time to answer 

her calls, so she stopped calling. 

Before returning to the country, she had actually hoped Mom would come to the airport to pick her up. 

But since Dad and Aunty Julie said they would be the ones to pick her up, she didn’t call Mom. 

She had thought that once they got home, Mom would definitely be there. 

But, unexpectedly… 

Thinking about it, Isabella didn’t feel like calling Mom anymore. 

She thought that even if she called, Mom would probably still be too busy to answer. 

When they arrived, the joy of coming home instantly disappeared as she realized that Maggie wasn’t

there. 

Franklin squatted down, gently pinched her cheek, and raised an eyebrow, “Crying?” 

Isabella pouted and turned her face away, “No, I’m not!” 

Franklin laughed, “Giving up? Not calling Mom anymore?” 

Isabella didn’t answer. After a long while, she mumbled softly, “I… I didn’t give up…” 

She still wanted to call Mom. 

Franklin chuckled but didn’t say anything further. He reached out and picked her up, saying, “Let’s go 

inside first.” 

Isabella nestled in his warm and broad arms, hugging his neck as she felt a little better. 

The Wilson family was waiting for them to eat dinner. 

When they saw them return, everyone turned to look. 

Especially Old Madam Wilson, who, upon seeing Isabella, immediately smiled from ear to ear, “Isabella is 

back? Come over here, let Grandma have a good look at you.” 

Isabella got down from Franklin’s arms and ran over to Old Madam Wilson, “Grandma.” 

Then, she called out to Grandma Stella and the others, “Grandma, Aunty, Uncle.” 

Stella and Maria responded lightly, but their voices were faint. 

Yancy, however, was very happy. He got up and went over to hug her, teasing her. 

Isabella giggled as she was teased. 

At this point, Yancy suddenly turned to his brother and asked, “By the way, where’s my sister–in–law?” 

When Stella and the others arrived home, they hadn’t seen Maggie and assumed she had gone with Franklin to the airport to pick up Isabella. 

Now that both Franklin and Isabella had returned, yet Maggie was nowhere to be seen, they found it a little strange. 

But since they didn’t care much about Maggie, they didn’t bother asking.

Franklin replied, “She’s busy.” 

Yancy didn’t suspect anything and continued to tease Isabella. 

Old Madam Wilson knew what was going on but didn’t say anything. 

After dinner, Isabella played for a while, but feeling bored, she decided to call Maggie. 

Even though it was a holiday, Maggie had no plans to let herself rest. 

When Isabella’s call came through, Maggie was busy going over some materials provided by Nolan. 

Seeing the call, and recalling that they hadn’t seen each other for nearly a month, Maggie picked up the phone casually, “Hello.”
