Chapter 326

Before he could finish his sentence Reed interrupted him saying Are you trying to say that he s helping Maggie bully that Miss Brown again
Rex was taken aback that Reed had guessed it so quickly. He was quite surprised. “Old man, how did you know? Have you already found out what happened?”
Reed replied I don t know I just guessed
Since Maggie and Johnny had initially agreed to cooperate with his fool of a son out of respect for him, they wouldn’t deliberately make things difficult for the boy at work for no reason. And his fool of a son wouldn’t intentionally stir up trouble at work either.
In other words even if Johnny and Maggie didn t become friends with his son there should be no significant conflict during their cooperation
Since Rex didn t have any issues with Johnny and the others it was likely that someone close to him had clashed with them instead
And that person was probably Julia.
Earlier this year when he met with Quaid and Maggie for a meal they happened to run into Miss Brown at the entrance of the restaurant At that time seeing how attentive his son was towards her and how refined and outstanding she seemed in both demeanor and appearance he was initially quite satisfied with her
But after the meal, Jordan had informed him that Miss Brown was Franklin’s girlfriend.
He didn’t know much about the relationship between Maggie and Franklin, but he had noticed that the expressions of Maggie and Johnny were quite subtle when they saw Julia and her father. It was clear they disliked Julia and her
Maggie s personality didn t seem like one that would easily cause conflicts If his son had fallen out with Maggie it was probably
Realizing that it might have something to do with Julia, he called Rex to confirm. Sure enough, it was because of Julia that his son had had a falling out with Maggie.
Reed couldn’t help but laugh bitterly upon hearing that in Rex’s eyes, Maggie was intentionally targeting Julia due to her outstanding abilities and fearing that Johnny might take an interest in her. And because Johnny was infatuated with her, he was blindly helping Maggie make things difficult for Julia.
Amused Reed sarcastically replied So what do you want me to do Contact Nolan to tell him about the situation and have him re in in Johnny
Yes Rex said Johnny has been way too reckless this time If this continues I think
Reed cut him off He had no intention of telling him the truth and said I can t make that call If you want to help Miss Brown contact Nolan yourself
Rex frowned Old man it s not just about helping her I actually have a good impression of Johnny and I don t want him to keep being so reckless
So he thought the problem still lay with Maggie
Hearing this, Reed’s forehead twitched with anger. “Johnny is reckless? I don’t think so. What if it’s because you’re too biased and your judgment is clouded by your feelings for Julia~”
You know nothing old man How can you judge that I m being biased Rex retorted
Reed was silent for a moment
Then tell me the details
Rex explained the situation briefly.
After listening Reed said This matter was actually that Miss Brown s fault As the head of the company she didn t handle things promptly and instead sided with her own employees and family members defending them against Cole s staff If I were Johnny I d be angry too
“Moreover, this incident clearly shows that Miss Brown’s family members are people who can’t distinguish right from wrong, and they don’t know how to respect or prioritize their business partners. Honestly, if they weren’t worried about the consequences of breaching the contract with Cole, they probably wouldn’t have even apologized. So, from Johnny’s perspective, not wanting to continue working with her is completely understandable.”
Rex defended Julia saying No they apologized to Cole s staff very quickly and later she even called Johnny to apologize herself showing a lot of sincerity
He felt that if it weren t for the grudge between Maggie and Julia Johnny definitely wouldn t have wanted to break the contract with Wilson Tech over something so trivial
All of that is just superficial Reed said not wanting to talk more That Miss Brown already has a boyfriend I mentioned this to you before and you said you were aware of it When I first met her I thought she was pretty good but now I see her character isn t great The way she handles things makes it hard for her to achieve anything Honestly son both you and Franklin have poor judgment
Rex didn t expect Reed to say that
Just as he was about to explain how outstanding Julia was, Reed cut him off, saying, “Alright, I won’t stop you if you want to help her, but don’t expect me to get involved.”
With that Reed hung up the phone
