Not long after, Harry and Daisy arrived as well.
Upon seeing them, Isabella greeted with a smile, "Uncle, Daisy, you're here!" Daisy cover and held Isabella's hand. “Your match is about to start-are you nervous, Isabella?” Isabella, however, remained calm and composed. She shook her head. “Not at all." Harry had other business to attend to-he was only here to drop Daisy off.
Knowing he was in a hurry, Franklin said, “I'll look after Daisy. Go take care of your work." Harry nodded. "Alright, I'll cback around noon and have lunch with you guys." "Sounds good." The bond between the two still seemed as strong as ever.
But...
Julia listened to their conversation, her gaze flitting between Franklin and Harry.

Watching him cand go without once speaking to her, Julia let out a faintly mocking smile.
Ever since he had fallen for Maggie, Harry had grown colder and colder toward her.
Meanwhile, back at hresting, Maggie received a call from Johnny.
"My parents and I are going out for lunch today. It's been a while since they last saw you, and they've mentioned you a few times recently. They really want to see you-do you want to join us?" It had indeed been quite a while since Maggie had seen Mr. and Mrs. Gray. Hearing this, she agreed.

10:32 Mr. CEO, Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long T99.6% Seeing her, Mrs. Gray held her hand warmly. "It's been so long, our Maggie is still as beautiful as ever." As Maggie and Mrs. Gray chatted, Levi stepped out of a car nearby. When he saw Maggie, Johnny, and Mr. and Mrs. Gray together, he froze for a moment.
Maggie noticed him too, and the smile on her face faded slightly before she calmly looked away.
Levi was clearly surprised, but he quickly regained composure and greeted the couple politely, "Mr. Gray, Mrs. Gray." They nodded in response.
Levi glanced around at the four of them, then turned and walked into the restaurant ahead.
Once he was a bit farther away, he pulled out his phone and called Franklin.
Franklin picked up quickly. "What's up?" "Guess who I just saw?" Franklin didn't take the bait. "Who did you see?" "...Seriously?" Levi could already tell from Franklin's tone that he had a good idea.
"You're right-it was Maggie. But here's the kicker-she was with Johnny and his parents. Dude, it totally looked like she was meeting the parents! Mrs. Gray even held her hand and looked super affectionate, like Maggie was already her daughter-in-law. I swear, they might really be close to tying the knot!" Franklin replied calmly, "Oh? Is that so?" "... Really? That's all you've got to say?" Given Franklin's past indifference toward Maggie, his reaction wasn't exactly surprising.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that gossiping with Franklin wasn't going anywhere, Levi switched topics. "Has Isabella's match finished? What were the results?" "It finished this morning. She did well." "Alright then..." Levi, still bubbling with gossip, couldn't help himself. He shared the whole thing with Julia and Harry in their group chat.
At that moment, Franklin, Julia, and the others had just arrived at then restaurant urant and were getting ready to eat. Harry had wrapped up his work and joined them. Seeing Levi's @ in the group chat, both Julia and Harry checked their messages.
Upon reading that Maggie had been spotted with Johnny and his parents, Julia thought it must be the result of what TACK_ 11.- Wanted a Divorca for a Long T99.8% Chapter 278 she had told Mrs. Gray the day before.
She curled her lips slightly in a subtle smirk.
Johnny's parents meeting with Maggie-maybe they were trying to put her in her place? But just as she had that thought, Levi sent two more messages.
"Just now, Mrs. Gray was holding Maggie's hand, calling her 'Maggie' with such warmth, seriously looked like she adored her-as if Maggie were her own daughter. I'm telling you, this looks like it's really happening!"
"Remember during Grandma Wilson's birthday, Mrs. Gray said that as long ме as Johnny and Maggie were feady, she could arrange the wedding anytime? Back then, I thought she was just being polite, But now? Damn, she meant it!" Reading that, Julia froze.
And then, her expression changed tically.
