Chapter 29
Maggie put down her phone, had breakfast, and then left for the Wilson Group office. There was a big meeting in the morning. Franklin would also be attending.
After arriving at the meeting room, Maggie sat down with the others and waited for more than ten minutes before Franklin appeared.
As soon as he entered, Sherry gasped in admiration, her eyes shining as she couldn’t take her eyes off of Franklin.
It wasn’t until a while later, when the meeting officially began, that she snapped out of it. She tugged at Maggie’s sleeve and whispered, “President is really handsome!”
Maggie had only glanced up when Franklin entered. Upon hearing Sherry, she didn’t even lift her head, giving a perfunctory “Mm.”
Seeing that Maggie seemed completely uninterested in Franklin, Sherry was a little surprised.
But then she remembered that Maggie was already married, with a child who wasn’t that young anymore, so she figured it was normal.
During the meeting, Sherry’s heart was racing as she couldn’t stop staring at Franklin. She didn’t aftention to what was being discussed at the meeting at all.
Maggie, on the other hand, was focused on taking notes on her computer.
After the meeting, Franklin left first, and the others followed.

Sherry continued to daydream for a while, but it wasn’t until Jake came over to collect the material that Maggie had just recorded that she snapped out of her thoughts.
Jake flipped through the records and couldn’t help but comment, “Not bad, good work.”
Maggie replied, “It’s nothing.”
Jake left, and Sherry suddenly realized that she hadn’t been paying attention during the meeting. S quickly asked Maggie to send her the materials.

Chapter 29
But after a moment, a headache began to set in.
“Maggie, did you study architecture before?” Sherry asked.
Maggie replied, “No.”
“Then why do you know so many industry–specific terms?”
“I learned them by finding books on my own, but it’s just the basics.”
The Wilson Group had a variety of investment projects, and in order to do her job well, she had spent a lot of time over the years learning about different industries.
“Ah? So you’ve also read books related to the medical industry?”
“Mm.”
Sherry was stunned into silence.
After spending two days with Maggie, Sherry realized that Maggie wasn’t just some young woman
who had become the team leader of their secretarial group by chance. She truly had real ability.
“What books did you read? Could you send me a reading list? I’d like to take a look myself when I
have time.”
“Sure, I’ll send it to you later.”
At noon, Maggie sifted through her collection of books and sent Sherry a list of books that would be
useful for her in the future and were easy to get into.
Sherry stared at the long list of books, which included around forty or fifty titles, and was a little
confused.
At 3 PM, Franklin had a client meeting. Jake asked Maggie to make several cups of coffee because h
would take them over in a little while.
Sherry had no idea that it was Maggie who made Franklin’s coffee.
However, after Maggie finished making the coffee, Jake stopped her from delivering it herself and went to do it personally.

Sherry thought it was because Franklin wanted to avoid people getting too close by using the coffee
As an excuse,
She asked tentatively, “Maggie, have you never personally delivered coffee to President Franklin‘?”
“Not really, sometimes when Jake or the others are busy, they ask me to deliver it.”
Sherry liked coffee, but she never intended to learn how to make it herself.
uring Maggie say this, her eyes lit up. “Maggie, how do you make coffee to suit President Franklin’s taste? Can you teach me?”
Even though the opportunity might not come often, she still wanted to seize it.
Maggie could see through Sherry’s intentions.
She replied, “Sure.”
She had already given up on Franklin, so why would she keep the coffee–making skills that he liked
to herself?
At this moment, Jake arrived at the tea room and froze when he heard the conversation.
He and Chad had always believed that Maggie couldn’t possibly let go of the company.
They were sure she would find a way to stay.
When Sherry came to the company to take over Maggie’s job, they thought Maggie would do something.
After all, Sherry was beautiful and stunning.
How could Maggie possibly let such a woman stay by Franklin’s side?
But over the past two days, not only had Maggie accepted Sherry, but they had also gotten along well. Now, Maggie was even teaching Sherry how to make coffee?
What… was going on?
Jake couldn’t understand, and neither did Maggie.

“I want to eat crab cake and sushi. Can you come home and make it for me?
Maggie paused.
She hadn’t officially divorced Franklin yet, and he hadn’t called asking her to move out.
If she went back to cook for her daughter, she believed Franklin wouldn’t mind.
But-
She was feeling a bit tired, and she still had her own plans.
Isabella was her responsibility, but she also had her own life now. She wouldn’t sacrifice her time for them unconditionally anymore.
She replied, “Mom has something to do today. Maybe next time.”
In the past, Maggie had always prioritized Franklin and Isabella in her plans.
She almost never said no to them.
But today, she had refused them twice.
Though Isabella didn’t notice this and just assumed Maggie was truly busy, it was rare for her to be
turned down like this.
She felt a bit wronged. “Mom, why have you been so busy lately? I don’t care, I want crab cake and
sushi!”
