A while later. Franklin answered the phone: âSchoolâs over?â
âMmâ¦â Isabella replied with a hint of anticipation.
Franklin smiled lightly and asked, âDo you miss Mommy?â
âMmâ¦â Isabellaâs voice became sweeter and softer.
âDid you not call Mommy?â he continued, his tone still gentle.
âMm.â Isabella responded quietly, sounding a bit embarrassed.
Franklin chuckled softly, âCall her. Mommy should have time to answer today.â
Isabellaâs eyes lit up upon hearing this: âReally?â
âReally. Call Mommy now,â he said warmly.
âOkay!â Isabella quickly hung up and dialed Maggieâs number.
Maggie hesitated when she saw the call coming in.
Although Isabella had visited her in the hospital after she fell down the stairs and again when she went to
the Yves family, those two encounters didnât count toward their planned oneâmonth meetings.
Setting aside those, it had actually been more than a month since she last saw Isabella.
With this in mind, Maggie answered the call: âIsabella, is school over?â
Before Maggie could finish, Isabella, upon hearing her answer the phone, happily exclaimed, âMommy!â
Her tone was filled with surprise.
Maggie paused, her hand resting on the mouse, and stopped moving for a moment. After a brief two seconds, she came back to her senses and responded lightly, âMm, Mommyâs here. Did you finish school?â
âMm!â Isabella happily said, âMommy, where are you? I wanted to call you earlier, but I was worried you wouldnât have time to pick up, so I didnât.

But just now. I called Dads and be saat yon & Andy have time today. So, Mommy, are you coming
Maggie paused for a moment before answering âNo pre-
She paused again and then added. âMommyâs still at the company. Later, Iâll go back to your great grandmotherâs house. De you want to go great grandmotherâs house first, or~~
Isabella immediately replied. âWherever you go. Iâll get
Maggie was silent for a more ârightâ She added, âThen you go to great grandmotherâs house first. Mommy will come back aber I finish work.â
âMarâ Isabella responded, her voice full of reliance and expectations.
After banging up. Maggie finished the work at hand and then left the office.
When she returned to the Miller family home, before she even entered the door, Isabella had already run out to her, jumping into her arms: âMommy!
âMm.â Maggie gently picked her up, and Isabellaâs smile was as bright as sunshine
Mrs. Miller, seeing her return, smiled and said. âMaggie, youâre back? Just in time, dinnerâs ready. Come
inside and eat.â
Maggie smiled back, âAlright.â
Isabella sat next to Maggie during dinner. She had not had a meal cooked by Maggie in a long time. Locking at the food in front of her, she couldnât help but say,
âMommy, you havenât cooked for me in a while. Can you make me some pasta tomorrow? I really want to eat your pasta, cheese cake, and sushiâ
Since deciding to divorce Franklin, Maggie had indeed not cooked for Isabella. Moreover, when Isabella came to the Miller family, she had been so busy that she didnât get a chance to cook.
Thinking of this, Maggie agreed, âAlright, Iâll cook for you tomorrow.â
As for Julia, the outside world didnât pay much attention. However, Mrs. Miller and Jason knew that Isabellaâs relationship with Julia was probably quite close.
They were naturally uncomfortable with this. But they understood that Isabella was still young and didnât understand the adult conflicts between the Miller and Brown families, so they didnât blame her.

Maggie had not fought for the custody of Isabella, and Mrs. Miller and Jason were worried that the long separation would cause a rift between mother and daughter.
Seeing Isabella so dependent on Maggie, they were naturally pleased.

Franklinâs voice came through: âI wonât be back until Wednesday at the earliest.
Before I return, Isabella probably wonât want to leave the Miller family these next few days. Youâll have to bear with her for a bit.â
Maggie listened quietly, pursed her lips, and hung up the phone.
