Chapter 373
In order not to raise suspicion, Julia tried her best to act normal and actively engage in the conversation between Franklin, Harry, and Levi
That evening, when she returned home, Sophia and Grandma Green were chatting on the couch.
As soon as she walked in, Sophia turned her head while munching on watermelon and asked,
“Hey sis, has that old lady from the Wilson family woken up yet?”
Julia shook her head. “Not yet.”
“Huh? Any idea when she might wake up?”
Again, Julia shook her head.
Upon hearing this, both Sophia and Lauren frowned.
They had found out about the old lady’s sudden hospitalization shortly after she was rushed into the emergency room.
And when Franklin decided to delay the divorce with Maggie due to his grandmother’s condition, he had almost immediately informed Julia.
To many, divorce wasn’t exactly considered a good thing. Now that Old Madam Wilson was gravely ill, if Franklin and Maggie rushed to finalize their divorce, it would indeed seem inappropriate.
So, Franklin’s decision to postpone the divorce was understandable to everyone.
Still, understanding didn’t mean they were happy about it.
If the old lady hadn’t collapsed, Franklin wouldve been able to finalize the divorce with.

Maggie just a few days after finishing up his recent obligations.
But now, with the old lady not waking up anytime soon, no one could say when the divorce might actually happen.
Tracy didn’t seem too bothered. She patted her daughter’s head and said with a smile,
“Whether the old lady wakes up or not, or whenever she does, it doesn’t really change anything. Given how Franklin feels about Julia, their marriage is only a matter of time. At
best, this is just a minor hiccup. No need to be so anxious.”
Sophia blinked, then grinned.
“True.”
But then she huffed and added,
“I’m just pissed that tramp Maggie still gets to call herself my sister’s ‘wife‘.”
In the past, whenever people brought this up, Julia always brushed it off calmly, going about her business as if she wasn’t at all concerned about any changes between her and
Franklin.
But now-
Hearing Tracy and Sophia’s words, she lowered her eyes and remained silent. After they
finished talking, she only said softly,
“I’m a bit tired. I’ll head upstairs first.”
Sophia didn’t notice anything off and cheerfully said,
“Okay, night sis!”
However, Janice did notice something was wrong with her daughter’s expression.
A few days ago, Julia had overheard something about Maggie in the parking lot–something
she wasn’t supposed to hear.

Although Janice sensed that Julia had been off afterward, she hadn’t pressed the issue, especially since she had to return to her hometown for an emergency. As a result, she wasn’t up to date on Julia’s recent state and hadn’t realized anything was seriously wrong.
So now, seeing her daughter like this, she simply assumed she was tired and didn’t think
much more of it.
Meanwhile-
Maggie was packing up for the day when Johnny knocked and entered her office, handing her several gold–embossed invitation cards with a smile.
“The anniversary celebration is all set. These are the invites reserved for you
Maggie took them and smiled,
“Thanks, senior.”
“Come on, no need to thank me,” he laughed. “Oh right, we also sent an invite to Wilson Group. After all…”
Maggie nodded and smiled faintly,
“It’s alright. I understand, senior.”
