Chapter Divorce Long 140
Chapter 140
"Another potential partner?"
"Most likely."
Like Rex, he and Harry, as well as Levi, usually didn't have much to do with each other. Harry wouldn't
call him for no reason.
Besides, the He family, like the Hardin family, had connections in the political and military circles. They
were very well-informed.
Johnny asked Maggie, "Should I take the call?"
Maggie, as Franklin's wife, knew that people like Harry, who accepted Julia but disregarded her, would naturally feel the same way about her. To Johnny, Harry was even more detestable than Rex. Maggie replied, "Take it."
She didn't want Johnny to act out of spite.
Johnny answered the call.
Just as he expected, Harry, like Rex, was calling to seek collaboration.
After Harry explained his intention, Johnny replied, "I understand your position, Mr. Becker. If it's a good fit, we'll definitely consider it. Please rest assured."
Harry wasn't stupid either. He knew Johnny's response was polite but left no room for commitment.
He still wanted to take the opportunity to invite Johnny out for a meal, but Johnny used the excuse of being too busy with company affairs to decline the invitation and ended the call.
He looked at Maggie and said, "Harry and Rex, both from the top families in the country, I can understand them getting the news right away. But the Brown family..."
The Brown family was an outsider in the capital, still trying to establish itself. For them to hear the news
so soon meant...
Maggie understood what he was implying. The Brown family getting the news so early probably meant that Franklin or Harry had leaked it to them.

Considering Franklin's feelings for Julia, and the relationship between Harry and Julia, it wasn't Surprising at all that they would inform the Brown family. Johnny smirked. His good mood was completely ruined.
But he knew that Maggie's mood was probably even worse.
He said, "Let's go. Senior Brother has plenty of money. Senior Brother will treat you to a big meal!"
Maggie's mood wasn't as bad as Johnny thought. She had long since learned to let go of many things.
Her mood wasn't easily swayed by those people anymore.
Moreover, this time, the initiative was in her hands. She had nothing to worry about.
But since Johnny wanted to treat her to a meal, she naturally wouldn't turn him down.
She smiled, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
With that, she and Johnny left together.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Maggie's expression remained neutral as she saw the people from the Brown and Green families walking towards them. Johnny muttered under his breath, "What a small world."
The Brown and Green families were visibly pleased upon seeing Johnny.
Logan smiled and said, "Mr. Gray, we meet again."
Johnny gave a faint smile. "Yes, we meet again."
Logan chuckled and said, "What a coincidence. How about joining us?"
Earlier, when he called Johnny, Logan had already planned to invite him for a meal, and now that they had coincidentally met, he certainly didn't want to miss this opportunity. Johnny politely declined, "No, this is my personal time. Maybe next time."
"Ah... alright, next time then."
With Johnny saying so, Logan couldn't insist.

Johnny nodded and said to Maggie, "Let's go."
Maggie nodded and didn't spare another glance at the Brown and Green families. She followed him
upstairs.
Watching their departing figures, Lauren furrowed her brows and murmured,
"I heard from Julie that Johnny has been indifferent to her because of Maggie. With the Cole project, could Johnny be reluctant to cooperate with us because of her?" Given Johnny's cold attitude toward them, this was indeed a possibility.
Janice, with a calm tone, replied, "There's still some time before the bidding for the Cole projects. Nothing's settled yet, so anything could happen."
Miles added with a smile, "Indeed. Earlier, because of Granny Wilson's interference, things weren't moving forward with Julie and Frank. Now, suddenly, there's a breakthrough, right? So don't be discouraged. We still have chances."
The "breakthrough" Miles referred to was, of course, the divorce between Franklin and Maggie.
This was news that they had not known initially. It was only after Levi accidentally mentioned it to Julie that they found out.
Later, they learned that the divorce certificate hadn't been processed as quickly as expected, and Franklin didn't want Julie to worry. He planned to wait until the certificate was ready to tell her, as a surprise.
Hearing this, Granny Green smiled and said, "Frank has always wanted a divorce. Now that Julie was injured while saving him, he no longer cares about Granny Wilson's objections. He's resolutely going to divorce Maggie. Frank really does have feelings for Julie." "Indeed. Julie's patience is about to pay off. Her good days are coming."
"Yes."
Both Janice and Logan smiled upon hearing this.
However, as they looked in the direction in which Maggie and Johnny had just left, Granny Green's smile faded slightly.
"That girl, Maggie, definitely doesn't want a divorce. Could it be that in the end, the divorce won't happen?" Long Time

ior's eyes turned cold as she said, "I heard from julle that Frank can basically make his own decisions alloutters like this,
He didn't want to divorce earlier, simply because he wanted to find a good opportunity and didn't want to hurt Granny Wilson's feelings. But Frank is set on fulle.
Now that julle nearly lost her life saving him, Frank has decided, without a word of protest, to divorce Maggie. He's already made up his mind, so the chances of the divorce happening are very high."
