Johnny replied, “…Of course.”
Franklin smiled, glanced at Maggie, and then turned to leave with Julia and the others who were waiting at the door.
After lunch, Maggie and Johnny returned to Wilson Tech.
They had been back for a while when Julia and her team returned.
Around six in the evening, Maggie and Johnny finished their work and planned to leave first.
There was still some time left, so there was no rush to deal with the remaining matters.
However, Julia and her team still seemed quite busy, showing no signs of leaving.
Kim said, “I heard they’ll continue working overtime tonight.”
Johnny replied, “…Oh.”
Maggie said, “Let’s go.”
hnny smiled, “I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Maggie shook her head, “No, I have other plans.”
Grandmother Wilson had ordered her to return to the old residence for dinner that evening.
When she arrived home, she found that Franklin and Isabella had already returned.
Maggie hadn’t expected Franklin to be back. She had thought he would stay at the company to accompany Julia.
When Franklin saw her return, he glanced at her briefly before continuing to type away on his computer.
During dinner, Franklin sat next to Maggie. Seeing that she was busy with her phone, he suddenly spoke, “Do you have time later? I need to talk to you about something.”
Franklin didn’t take his eyes off his phone when he heard the words and simply replied, “Alright.”
Maggie, reassured by his response, relaxed.
The old lady had been talking to the housekeeper earlier and hadn’t heard their conversation clearly. Seeing them speaking, she smiled happily.
After dinner, the old lady had someone bring out the medicine for Maggie.
Franklin left the dining room to make a phone call.
After Maggie finished her medicine and was about to leave the dining room, she heard the sound of a car approaching.
Maggie paused. “He’s leaving?”
The old lady was angry. “Yes, he left in such a rush. I don’t even know what he’s off to do.”
Maggie furrowed her brows, guessing that he might be going to help Julia again with something at Wilson Tech.
But he had promised to talk to her later.
She hoped he would return tonight.
But Franklin didn’t come back.
Things at Wilson Tech had been busy lately.
Johnny asked, “Wilson, is there something we can help you with?”
