She had already resigned.

Even without this incident, once they found her replacement, she would leave the company immediately.

But she knew that no one here cared about her affairs. There was no point in saying

Maggie silently turned to leave with the tray.

Before leaving, she heard Julia gently comforting Franklin, “Come on, Franky, I’m sure she didn’t mean to, don’t stay angry…”

expertly retrieved ointment from her bag to apply to the burn.

But after marriage, for Franklin and their child, she had learned it all.

The countless hours spent learning, progressing from terrible to perfect–only she knew the

bitterness of that journey.

As for the ointment in her bag–what mother who personally cared for her child didn’t habitually carry some first aid supplies?

Though since Isabella had gone to Country A with Franklin, she rarely needed these medicines anymore.

Fortunately, they hadn’t expired.

After treating her wound, Maggie pushed down the needle–like pain in her chest and returned to her desk to work.
