Chapter 136

After Maggie finished her medicine and was about to leave the dining room, she heard the sound of a car approaching.
Maggie paused. “He’s leaving?”
The old lady was angry. “Yes, he left in such a rush. I don’t even know what he’s off to do.”
Maggie furrowed her brows, guessing that he might be going to help Julia again with something at Wilson Tech.
But he had promised to talk to her later.
She hoped he would return tonight.
But Franklin didn’t come back.
Things at Wilson Tech had been busy lately.
After having breakfast at the old house, Maggie and Johnny gathered directly at the entrance of Wilson Tech.
By the time they arrived, Julia and her team were already there.
Johnny said, “So early? No overtime last night?”
“Of course there was,” the General Manager replied. “But to catch up with the schedule, we had to come in early. We’re really pushing it.”
Johnny didn’t comment further, and Maggie focused on her work.
About an hour later, just as Maggie was thinking of going to the restroom, Franklin appeared.
This time, he didn’t seem to be there for Julia.
After entering, he greeted Julia from a distance and then walked toward them..
Johnny asked, “Wilson, is there something we can help you with?”
Franklin replied, “I’ve had some time these past couple of days to learn about the system you’ve developed. It looks impressive. However, I still have a few ideas I’d like to discuss with both of you.”
Johnny glanced at Maggie, then said, “Please, go ahead, Wilson.”
Maggie paused for a moment but still said, “Sorry, I need to use the restroom. Please go
Johnny and Franklin nodded.
After Maggie returned from the restroom and was a few steps away from them, a sharp cry of “Director Brown!” suddenly came from the meeting room, followed by a commotion.
Just as Maggie was about to turn her head to look, she saw Franklin’s face change. He quickly rushed toward the meeting
As he passed her, he accidentally bumped into her shoulder with great force. The pain from the impact made Maggie almost Mose her balance, but Johnny quickly came over to steady her. “Are you alright?”
Mr CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time
Maggie held her shoulder, where Franklin had bumped her, and shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Arthat moment, she saw Franklin enter the meeting room and quickly emerge, holding fulla, before disappearing.
The General Manager, noticing this, quickly asked, “What happened to Director Brown?”
“She fainted,” said Manager. “I think she’s been overworking and got exhausted.”
Remembering how Franklin had rushed past her in concern for Julia, almost knocking her down, Johnny’s face darkened. He gritted his teeth. “She won’t be worked to death!”
The General Manager hesitated. “…”
He was at a loss for words, seeing how upset Johnny was. He awkwardly chuckled. “John, Wilson is just really worried about Director Brown. You don’t need to-
Johnny shot a concerned glance at Maggie. “Shut up!”
The General Manager quickly fell silent.
Maggie didn’t really mind. Seeing how concerned Johnny was for her, she smiled slightly. “It’s not serious. It doesn’t hurt much anymore.”
Johnny pursed his lips. “Should we go home and rest for a while?”
Maggie shook her head, patting his shoulder. “I’m not that fragile. Let’s continue working.”
Johnny responded with a subdued “Mm” but couldn’t help asking, “It’s been a while since you filed for divorce, why hasn’t it been finalized?”
