The Heart I Gave The Love I Lost

Chapter 39

Since Isabella was mostly fine, she likely wouldn’t need to stay the night here.

The porridge was still simmering in the pot. Maggie sat for a while before heading

downstairs. Aunt Sara was in the kitchen, saying,

“I’ll keep an eye on the fire. Madam, you must be tired, so please sit down and rest.”

When Maggie left the kitchen, she saw Franklin sitting on the living room sofa reading the

newspaper.

When he saw her, he glanced over, but quickly returned his attention to the paper.

Maggie hesitated for a moment.

In the past, she would have sat down next to him, trying to spend some quiet time together without disturbing him.

But now….

They had nothing left to talk about.

With that thought, she turned and headed upstairs, and Franklin didn’t call after her.

However, Maggie couldn’t help feeling a bit puzzled.

She had expected him to confront her about “bullying” Julia with Johnny, but he didn’t say anything at all…

Maggie had just gone upstairs when Isabella woke up, looking pale and coming out of her room to find her. “Mommy, I’m hungry, is the porridge ready?”

“Almost done.” Maggie asked Aunt Sara, “Is it still cooking?”

smiled, “No, it’s done.”
