Franklin said, “I haven’t been involved in the company’s subsequent development.”
Leo looked at Julia in surprise, “So Miss Brown, you’re that capable?
Julia replied, “No, it’s the engineers‘ credit. Most of them were already here before I took over. The company’s current success is indeed, as you said, closely related to Franklin, not so much to me.”
Leo smiled, “Miss Brown, you’re very modest.”
At first, knowing that fulia had built her career relying on Franklin’s support, he did think she wasn’t outstanding and didn’t quite match Franklin.

Franklin said nothing.
Maggie noticed Leo pointing at her, apparently recognizing her. She originally had no intention to pay much attention to Franklin’s acquaintances, but when she looked away, she suddenly recalled Leo.
They only met once years ago.
Back then, she knew Leo was a close friend of Franklin in Comtry A. When Leo came back home to visit Franklin, she happened to be there and met him briefly.
But several years had passed since.
Their first meeting had a slight unpleasantness.
However…
That was many years ago.
Time had really flown.
Maggie turned her attention back to the people she was with, including Johnny’s business partners, and didn’t look back at Franklin and the others.
