Chapter 242

Franklin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this but didn’t say anything more.
Mr. Taylor, listening to their conversation, was a little confused.
He didn’t know exactly what they were talking about, but…
“Ding!” The elevator arrived, and after greeting Mr. Taylor, Franklin exited the elevator.
After the doors closed, Mr. Taylor asked, “Miss Miller and Mr. Wilson… were they really not a couple?”
Maggie replied, “No.”
Mr. Taylor, however, didn’t believe her. He thought she was probably angry and denying it out of spite. Moreover, he thought that Maggie and Franklin seemed quite compatible.
Before he could say more, his phone rang.
This topic was quickly brushed aside.
After having lunch, Maggie and Johnny’s group headed downstairs, only to run into Franklinn and the Brown family again in the parking lot.
They overheard Landon saying to Franklin, “Treat my sister well! If you dare bully her, I won’t let you off, hmph!”
This was Landon’s first time meeting Franklin in person.
Actually, when he first saw Franklin in the private room earlier, Landon didn’t dare speak to him that
Franklin had a very strong presence, and it was clear he wasn’t an ordinary person.
However, Franklin treated him very kindly.
Thinking back to how his family had praised Franklin, the distance between them had lessened after the
meal, and Landon was no longer intimidated by him. Now, he felt comfortable enough to make such a
bold statement.
That said, in reality, Landon was quite pleased with Franklin as his future brother–in–law.
He genuinely believed that from every aspect, Franklin truly deserved his sister.
Moreover, Franklin was so good to his sister and their family, which made Landon even more satisfied.
So, even though he seemed to be threatening Franklin, everyone present understood what he really
Franklin smiled upon hearing this, saying, “Got it.”
Julia also smiled sweetly at the exchange.
It was a heartwarming moment.
Johnny sneered coldly, watching the scene.
Maggie’s expression remained unchanged.
Mr. Taylor, however, had realized something and looked at Maggie. “So, you and Mr. Wilson really aren’t
a couple?”
So the beautiful woman with him earlier was Franklin’s girlfriend?
Maggie replied indifferently, “No.”
At this point, Franklin and Julia noticed Maggie and Johnny. They looked over at them.
Johnny, however, couldn’t be bothered and directly said to Mr. Taylor, “Mr. Taylor, please get in the car.”
Earlier, when they had bumped into Franklin, Mr. Taylor had already noticed the apparent tension between Johnny and Franklin.
Given the current situation, Mr. Taylor didn’t say anything further. He just nodded at Franklin and got
into the car.
Maggie and Johnny followed closely behind.
Their car quickly disappeared into the parking lot.
The cooperation with Mr. Taylor went smoothly.
Two days later, the contract was signed, and Mr. Taylor had other engagements, so he left Cole.
After a tiring day, Maggie and Johnny returned to the meeting room, had some hot drinks, and took a
short break.
Just then, Secretary came in and placed a large stack of invitations in front of them, saying, “Here are the invitations for the year–end parties we’ve received in the past few days.”
There were at least twenty or thirty invitations.
Among them were invitations from Rex, Harry, the Wilson Group, and Wilson Tech.
Maggie and Johnny glanced through them and found that the Brown family had also sent invitations.
On the invitation from the Brown family, in addition to Johnny’s name, Maggie’s name was even written
Johnny, reclining on the meeting table, held up the invitation from the Brown family and laughed. “It seems our company is quite charming.”
Rather than the company being particularly charming, it could be said that their company’s latest two projects and CUAP were of great attraction to the Brown family.
To win them over, the Brown family had even put aside their pride and included Maggie’s name on the invitation.
But they didn’t know that the attractive technologies that Cole possessed weren’t actually developed by
Thinking of this, a deeper smile appeared in Johnny’s eyes.
