Chapter 31

She had lived there for nearly seven years, and although it had only been a little over twenty days since she left, it felt like she hadn’t been there for half a lifetime.

In fact, everything–the trees, the grass–hadn’t changed at all.

Maggie had already begun to feel a sense of unfamiliarity with the place.

The butler noticed her and quickly came out to greet her. “Madam, you’re back.”

Maggie paused at the butler’s address, but ultimately didn’t correct him. She nodded and

asked, “Where’s Bella?”

“She should still be asleep.”

It was almost time, and if Isabella didn’t come downstairs for breakfast soon, it would be too late. However, Maggie had no intention of going upstairs herself and simply asked Aunt Sara to go upstairs and urge her.

The butler asked, “Madam, have you had breakfast? It’s ready, would you like to-”

Maggie smiled faintly and shook her head. “No need, I’ve already eaten.”

“I see, understood…”

At that moment, Franklin came downstairs.

Maggie looked at him, said nothing, just gave a faint nod of acknowledgment.

Franklin paused in his steps. Before he could say anything, Isabella ran downstairs and leapt into Maggie’s arms.

Maggie embraced her, gently ruffling her hair, and smiled, “It’s getting late, hurry and go

have breakfast.”
