Still, Julia didn’t rush, nor did she feel insecure.
What if Maggie was more beautiful?
It didn’t matter–Maggie’s outward appearance held no real appeal.
And Julia had more than just her appearance.
Julia calmly shifted her gaze away and looked at Franklin standing beside her.
Noticing that Franklin only glanced at Maggie before calmly shifting his gaze elsewhere, she couldn’t help but curl the corners of her lips into a faint smile.
When Franklin and Julia arrived, Harry’s gaze naturally landed on Maggie.
Seeing that Maggie didn’t even change her expression when she saw them, Harry smiled lightly and said, “I’ll go over there for a moment.”
Maggie and Johnny nodded.
Harry walked over to Franklin and Julia, and they had exchanged a few words when Rex also arrived.
Upon seeing Julia, Rex instinctively walked toward her.
Julia saw him and smiled faintly. “President Hardin.”
“Miss Brown.”
Rex had been busy lately and hadn’t seen Julia for some time. Now that he saw her, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he couldn’t help but look at her a little longer before greeting Harry and Franklin.
Cole was now a very important partner for Hardin Group.
After talking briefly with Harry, Rex walked over to Johnny and took the initiative to greet him.
After exchanging pleasantries with Johnny, he then casually called out to Maggie, “Miss Brown.”
Maggie smiled but didn’t respond verbally.

The invitation for the Cole party had already been sent out, but Hardin Group hadn’t received one.
He only learned about this fact tonight.
Since they hadn’t even bothered to send him the invitation for the Cole event, it was highly unlikely that they would attend Hardin Group’s party tomorrow either…
Thinking this, Rex frowned slightly.
Maggie and Johnny clearly had no intention of engaging with him.
Johnny directly said, “President Hardin,
some old friends. You take your time.”
Rex knew perfectly well that they didn’t want to engage with him.
In fact, he really wanted to get along with Johnny.
But despite their long–time cooperation, Johnny had never given him any opportunity.
His dislike for Rex was so blatant that he didn’t even try to hide it.
Rex pursed his lips, feeling a little upset in his heart, but didn’t say anything. He simply watched them
walk away.
In the past two or three months, Cole had been attracting a lot of attention.
Whenever people saw Maggie and Julia, many would walk over to greet them.
Among them, of course, were several business partners that Cole had been working with recently.
Since Cole’s press conference, many of their collaborations had been handled by Maggie.
As a result, many of the business partners who had in–depth conversations with her knew just how strong her expertise was.
Therefore, over the past few months, several of Cole’s partners had secretly reached out to Maggie, hoping to recruit her for their own companies.
However, she had turned down every offer.
These CEOs weren’t upset by the rejections. They remained very polite toward her.

Now, seeing Maggie again, some of them couldn’t resist trying to poach her in front of Johnny: “Miss Miller, our company is also one of the top manufacturers in the country. We offer great benefits and a high degree of freedom. Whatever conditions you have, we can talk.”
Johnny: “…”
He really gave you an inch, didn’t he?
Maggie smiled and politely declined, “I’m not planning to leave Cole at the moment, but thank you for the offer, President Serena.”
Once again rejected, President Serena sighed deeply.
A little while later, someone noticed him rubbing his chest in frustration and couldn’t help but ask, “Serena, what’s going on tonight? If I didn’t know better, I’d think you missed out on a billion dollars.”
President Serena: “… It’s almost the same.”
Seeing that there was no business competition between them, she said, “I’ve found a truly rare talent, but… no matter what I offer, she won’t come.”
“Oh? Who?”
“That Miss Miller from Cole.”
“Ah? Her? She looks so young. Is her professional ability really that strong?”
“She really is that good.”
The core technical staff at his company, who had spoken with Maggie, had been praising her non–stop.
It’s worth noting that these individuals were some of the brightest young talents in the industry, all handpicked by President Serena to join her company.
If they praised her so highly, it was clear just how strong her abilities must be.
President Serena’s admiration for Maggie was something Julia didn’t know about.
She was currently chatting with Leo.
After talking with someone for a while, Rex stepped out of the crowd and saw that Julia wasn’t with Franklin, so he walked over.

Seeing him approach, Julia smiled faintly, “President Hardin.”
Rex nodded, glanced at Leo who was talking to her, and asked, “Who’s this?”
Julia introduced Leo’s background, then said, “He’s my teacher. I’ve been learning from him recently, and
it’s been very rewarding.”
Julia had previously mentioned that she wanted to become a student of Nolan. She had been working hard toward that goal and never gave up.
Now, hearing her say this, Rex realized that she was even more diligent than he had imagined.
He felt admiration and respect in his heart.
Stepping back, he said, “Well, you two carry on. I’ll leave you to it.”
Julia nodded, not looking back at him as she continued discussing matters with Leo.
Seeing how focused she was, Rex found it hard to take his eyes off her.
