Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time

Chapter 89

Hearing his footsteps, Maggie turned to face him and said seriously, "I've seen the property deed. Thank you."

Before he could respond, she added, "I don't have enough money at the moment, but I'll pay for it in the future."

Though the villa was old, the location was good, and the property market in the capital was one of the highest in the country. That villa was worth at least two or three hundred million yuan, money she couldn't afford right now. nklin paused for a moment, loosening his necktie. Upon hearing her words, he raised an eyebrow slightly, seeming intrigued. He said coolly, "You want to give me money?" "Yes, I-"

"No need," he interrupted, placing his loosened tie aside. "I can afford this myself."

With that, he also placed his watch down and went into the bathroom.

Maggie watched his retreating figure, stunned for a moment, but didn't press the matter further.

Since their marriage, she had never really asked him for anything, wanting to avoid burdening him. In a way, this house was the first thing he had given her on his own initiative.

She thought to herself that perhaps it could be a keepsake for their soon-to-end marriage.

With that thought, she placed the property deed in the drawer.

After a few busy days, by the fourth day, things had finally quieted down for Maggie.

Sue and Franklin had both been occupied, and she hadn't had much time to spend with Isabella. During lunch, Isabella called to ask if she had time, saying it had been a while since Maggie had picked her up from school. Maggie realized her schedule had cleared up a bit, so she decided to leave work early and pick up Isabella from school.

When she got home, Isabella mentioned that she was craving the dishes Maggie used to cook. So, after changing clothes, Maggie headed to the kitchen.

Since Maggie got off early, Grandma was also pleased. Seeing that Maggie was cooking, she called Franklin to ask him to come home for dinner.

Franklin declined, saying, "Grandma, I have something at the company."

Grandma wasn't pleased, but she quickly brightened up and, after hanging up, told Maggie, "Mag, take the food to Frank later!" Maggie froze and declined, "Grandma, since he has something to do, we shouldn't disturb him-"

"He still needs to eat, right?"

"Grandma-
