Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time novel Chapter 393

Chapter 393

No one punches a smiling face. In the moment, Johnny and Maggie could only return the handshake and pleasantries.

They had barely sat when Johnny’s phone rang.

An urgent matter at the company; he needed to head back.

After exchanging quick words with Franklin and Mr. Claremont, Johnny bent toward Maggie. Seeing his expression. she whispered, “What happened?”

He patted her shoulder, voice low and steady. “Don’t worry. I’ve got it.”

Reassured, Maggie let him go.

Their quiet, easy rapport didn’t go unnoticed; several people thought, not without envy, they’re truly close.

Chad and Jake glanced–instinctively–at Franklin.

Others might not know, but they did: Franklin was here because of Maggie.

Yet when they looked, they couldn’t quite read his face.

Johnny left; the lunch went on.

Once the dishes were ordered, the table talk drifted to the next phase of the partnership.

At that point Franklin turned to Maggie and cut in: “I’m especially interested in Point Three–the heterogeneous approach. If fully implemented, both the perception chip and the endpoint will see major performance gains.

“That said, it won’t be easy. Programming complexity, for one; compute may be fast, but data movement remains too slow–problems that demand heavy time and headcount.

“As for the programming issue, your Al–based auto partitioning is a direction, but the tech isn’t mature enough—it’ll create new failures, won’t it?”

The tech leads, who’d assumed earlier that Franklin was just making small talk, now realized he had actually read the plan–and in detail.

Maggie, too, was a little surprised.

Since he represented Wilson Group, she addressed the points head–on. “You’re right–that’s a real risk. On that step, I

can commit compute: we’ll provision hundred–billion–parameter–class models. As for toolchain integration, we…”

Once he’d asked, she laid it out thoroughly. Franklin kept pace, interjecting as they went. “In high–reliability system development, this is still a gap. Are you planning to route around it with an alternative path, or…?”

They went deeper and deeper.

By then, everyone–Chad, Jake, and the Wilson tech brass–understood: Franklin already had a complete solution in mind for the next phase.

And, very clearly, Maggie’s approach matched his almost point for point.

Which explained everything–the way he’d skimmed by keywords and still grasped the whole; the smile after he finished reading; why he’d made a point of joining a tech team lunch at all.

Thinking of that, Chad and Jake dropped their eyes when they caught the look in Franklin’s–depth edged with a

faint smile whenever it settled on Maggie.
