Chapter 236

Stella had just asked about the relationship between Franklin and Maggie.

As a result, Yancy learned that Franklin and Maggie were still in the process of their divorce and had not officially separated yet.

Considering how close Maggie was with her grandmother, and that she and Franklin hadn’t yet divorced, it made sense for her to attend her grandmother’s birthday banquet.

But…

Looking at Old Mrs. Wilson’s back, Yancy couldn’t help but ask, “Franklin, will Sister–in–law come to the birthday banquet?”

Isabella had finished eating and wasn’t in the dining room anymore.

Franklin continued eating slowly, and when he heard the question, he answered, “You can ask Grandma later.”

Yancy paused.

In other words, he didn’t know either?

Or was Maggie’s phone call to Grandma specifically about this matter?

If Maggie was coming to the birthday banquet, there would be no need for her to call and clarify it.

So…

Yancy liked Maggie a lot.

He looked at Franklin and really wanted to ask him if he was sure about divorcing Maggie.

But the family–Grandma, Father, and Mother–had no say in Franklin’s matters.

He couldn’t ask too much.

After Old Mrs. Wilson finished her call, she kindly asked, “Grandma, what did Sister–in–law say?”

Old Mrs. Wilson glanced at Franklin, who was still eating gracefully. Upon hearing Maggie’s nam-

didn’t show much reaction but replied, “Your sister–in–law called to apologize, saying she wouldn’t be able to attend my birthday celebration in person.”

Seeing that Old Mrs. Wilson had dropped a hint, Franklin didn’t respond. He just quietly added more food to her plate.

Old Mrs. Wilson pushed her bowl away, causing Franklin’s fork to miss.

The day of Old Mrs. Wilson’s birthday soon arrived.

Because Franklin had reminded her, Isabella had prepared a birthday gift for Old Mrs. Wilson in advance. When she went downstairs for breakfast, she was the first to give the gift to Old Mrs. Wilson.

Old Mrs. Wilson smiled and said, “Thank you, Isabella.”

Franklin also handed his gift to the old lady: “This is the gift Maggie and I prepared for you. Happy birthday.”

Old Mrs. Wilson glanced at him but didn’t speak. Before she could say anything, the housekeeper came in holding two gift boxes from outside and said to Old Mrs. Wilson,

“Madam, this is a congratulatory gift sent by Mrs. Miller and Young Mrs. Green, said to be for you.”

Old Mrs. Wilson took the gifts and looked at Franklin. Although she knew Franklin was trying to please her by saying the gift was from both him and Maggie, she no longer forced anything between them.

She snorted, “Maggie prepared a gift just for me. No need for you to go through the trouble.”

She then ignored him.

Franklin smiled but didn’t take it to heart. He turned to Isabella and urged her to eat her breakfast quickly, as he was going to take her to school soon.

After the gifts were handed over, Maggie grabbed the car keys and went to the office.

Not long after she arrived, she and Johnny went to Wilson Tech.

When they arrived, they saw Julia.

Upon seeing them, Julia only greeted Johnny, saying, “Mr. Gray.”

Julia greeted Johnny with a smile, her mood seemed quite good. There was not a trace of sadness about not attending Old Mrs. Wilson’s birthday party.

Johnny saw this and curled his lips, ignoring her as he got back to work with Maggie.

Maggie wasn’t going to attend Old Mrs. Wilson’s birthday party, and Johnny found it rather interesting. That evening, he went back to his family’s house, and along with his parents, he headed to the restaurant where Old Mrs. Wilson’s birthday party was being held.

They arrived relatively early, and when they entered the banquet hall, there weren’t too many guests yet.

Today was Old Mrs. Wilson’s milestone birthday, and the Wilson family had taken it very seriously. The hall was filled with Wilson family members, including Isabella.

Johnny hadn’t seen Isabella in over two years. The last time he saw her, he thought she resembled Franklin, but now, after these years, she looked even more like him.

As the Gray family arrived, the Wilson family members greeted them politely.

After some brief pleasantries, Johnny’s mother’s eyes landed on Isabella.

Johnny and Maggie had known each other ever since Maggie became a student at Nolan, and Johnny’s mother had always liked her. She thought Maggie, being close in age to her son and so accomplished, would be a great match for him.

However, she had merely hinted at this, and Johnny had told her that Maggie already had someone she liked, and before she had even processed it, they had gotten married.

Johnny’s mother was aware of the situation between Maggie and Franklin. So, when she saw Isabella, she smiled and said, “This is my great–granddaughter, Isabella.”

Johnny’s mother smiled and rubbed Isabella’s head, saying, “She’s really cute.”

Isabella obediently called out, “Grandma Gr
