Before Franklin could say anything, his phone rang.

He stepped out to take the call. By the time he returned, the waiter had already started serving the dishes, and the issue with Levi was conveniently brushed aside.

The author of the paper that had engineers and experts from around the world poring over it was now sitting right across from them.

As Professor Mark and his doctoral students flipped through the core content and experimental data in the paper, they couldn’t help but ask Maggie questions during the meal

No matter whether it was something from the paper or issues that had been bothering them in their own research, Maggie answered smoothly and with precision.

Julia watched in silence, her heart surprisingly calm.

The way Maggie conversed with Professor Mark and the others–it did seem like she knew her stuff.

But could that really be true?

With Johnny’s abilities, if he dared to list Maggie as the lead author of the paper, then he must have prepared her thoroughly.

When she first heard Johnny say Maggie was the first author she had truly been stunned.

But if this paper really was, as Johnny claimed, Maggie’s own research… Wouldn’t that make her even more

brilliant than Professor Smith, her own Ph.D. advisor?

How could that be possible?

She wasn’t Johnny.

There are countless geniuses in the world, but not everyone can become a Johnny.

So, this paper was probably developed by Johnny, and Maggie was just-

Once she realized this, she shot a glance at Maggie. Seeing her confidently discussing with Professor Mark and the others, she calmly averted her gaze.

Janice and Sophia were thinking more or less the same thing

Sophia, quick–tempered as ever, felt her blood boil as she watched Maggie act like she was some big deal, even daring to give advice to Professor Mark. She almost couldn’t help but call her out on the spot.

But with neither Janice nor Julia saying anything, no matter how angry she was, she didn’t dare make a scene.

Even Rex had quietly doubted Maggie’s capabilities.

Yet, when he saw Professor Mark’s focused and slightly thrilled expression while speaking with Maggie, he started

&

To waver

Could Maggie actually be that talented?

The dinner stretched on longer than expected.

Before parting ways, Maggie and Professor Mark exchanged contact information.

Professor Mark, realizing he might have monopolized too much of her time, turned to Franklin and apologized, “Sorry, President Wilson. Once I get started on technical talk, it’s hard to stop…”

Franklin smiled. “No worries. The reason I invited everyone today was to help you all get to know each other–it’ll be good for future collaborations.”

As the dinner ended, Harry finally found a chance to speak to Maggie. “Congratulations.”

“Thank you,” she replied.

Levi saw Harry walk over and congratulate Maggie, but didn’t think much of it–probably just a polite gesture, he figured.

Franklin noticed it too.

He glanced over, then looked away without much reaction.

Julia noticed. Her lips tightened slightly.

Did Harry really think Maggie was that impressive?

Was that why he liked her?

But… no.

Even before Becker Group and Cole had started cooperating Harry already seemed fond of Maggie.

So clearly, his feelings had nothing to do with her professional ability.

At that moment, Franklin’s voice pulled her from her thoughts. “What are you thinking about?”

Julia snapped out of it. Seeing how Maggie had stolen the spotlight tonight, and how Franklin hadn’t looked at her even once, she curved her lips into a faint smile. “Nothing important.”

Real or not, impressive or not–Maggie simply didn’t exist in Franklin’s eyes.

How Franklin thought of her–or whether he thought of her at all–Maggie didn’t care.

After leaving the restaurant, she returned to Wilson Tech with Johnny and the others for another round of meetings.
