Tonight, Maggie had originally planned to return to her own place, but upon thinking about it, she turned the steering wheel around and headed back to Franklin's villa.

When she arrived, she realized that neither Franklin nor Isabella had returned. Old Lady Wilson had left for the old residence a couple of days ago due to smatters. Maggie dropped her bag and went into the bathroom.

Half an hour later, just as she finished her shower and stepped out, she heard the sound of a car in the driveway. It seemed that Franklin and Isabella had returned.

Go back to your room and take a shower. You have school tomorrow." As soon as she finished speaking, Franklin entered the room. Their eyes met for a moment.

Maggie gave him a brief glance, then coldly looked away. At that moment, Isabella tugged at her, saying, "Mom, can you helptake a shower?" Maggie responded, "Okay, letdry my hair first." "Okay!" Isabella happily ran back to her room to get her pajamas.

Franklin watched her leave and sat down on the other side, asking, "When did you get back?" "Not long ago," Maggie said without looking at him, continuing to dry her hair.

Franklin didn't ask further. He stood up and went to the closet, preparing to shower.

Maggie still hadn't delivered the invitation to Maria Wilson.

After hanging up with Jessica, she dialed Maria's number.
