Chapter 18
hapter 18 Chapter 18 Though Maggie wanted a divorce and didnt plan to fight for Isabellas custody , Isabella was still her daughter , and she had both the obligation and responsibility to be good to her and meet her needs when possible .
So when Isabella asked her to peel the shrimp , Maggie responded , Alright .
As she put down her chopsticks and started peeling the shrimp , the elderly lady suddenly paused looking at her hands , Mag , wheres your ring ? At her words , everyone including Franklin- looked at Maggies hands .
After marriage , despite their ice cold relationship , Maggie had always worn the wedding ring the elderly lady had prepared for them .
In contrast , Franklin had never worn his .
His wedding ring had been discarded somewhere unknown .
All these years , Maggie had worn the ring everywhere , reluctant to remove it .
Everyone was used to this .
Maria had often mocked her for it over the years .
dding ring today She wasnt wearing her No one noticed at first after all , people dont usually stare at her hands for no reason .
In fact , if the elderly lady hadnt mentioned it , others wouldnt have noticed at all .
Maggies shrimp peeling motion paused imperceptibly before she responded casually , I was in a rush this morning and left it at home .
The truth was , she had already removed the ring when she first prepared the divorce papers .
She had pl had placed it in the envelope along with the divorce agreement .
However , she and Franklin werent officially divorced yet .
She knew the elderly lady would definitely oppose their divorce .
If she brought up the subject now , it would likely be impossible for her and Franklin to proceed with the divorce for the time being .
CEO , Your Wife Has Wanted a vorce for Time Chapter 18 So Maggie didnt tell the elderly lady the truth .
The elderly lady smiled upon hearing this .
Oh , I see .
After that , everyone continued enting as normal .
After dinner , everyone moved to the living room to enjoy fruits and desserts while chatting .
The elderly lady had always tried to play matchmaker between Maggle and Franklin .
Once again , she urged them to sit together .
Franklin still wouldnt even spare Maggie a glance While Maggie didnt want to move closer , she couldnt keep refusing the elderly ladys wishes , so she sat down beside Franklin .
This was the first time they had sat this close to each other in months .
Maggie could clearly smell the familiar , subtle masculine cologne on Franklin .
But now her heart remained unmoved as she took small bites of her fruit pudding , showing no intention of initiating conversation with Franklin .
The elderly lady , however , was quite pleased , smiling at them both .
You two make such a perfect match .
Indeed , he was handsome and dignified , while she was quiet , gentle, and extremely beautiful they did look perfect together on the surface .
But their compatibility ended at appearances .
In terms of other qualities , Maggie fell far short .
Nevertheless , seeing the elderly lady so happy , even though Maria and Stella didnt agree , they didnt spoil her mood by saying anything .
That evening , following the elderly ladys wishes , they stayed overnight at the family mansion .
Around eight oclock , Franklin went to the study to discuss business with the elderly lady , while Isabella tugged at Maggies hand , saying she wanted to take a bath and go to bed .

Sitting in the small bathtub , Isabella looked at Maggle and tentatively asked , Mommy , are you … busy tomorrow morning ? Although she could compromise and let her mom take her to school tomorrow morning , deep down she still hoped it would be Auntle Julle accompanying her .
So it would be better if mommy was busy tomorrow morning .
Maggie shook her head .
No , Im not busy .
Why do you ask ? Hearing this , Isabellas lips turned down in disappointment as she said , Nothing .
Since she didnt elaborate , Maggie didnt press further .
After the bath , Maggie gently dried Isabellas hair .
