Chapter 258
If one party breaches the contract without cause, they are required to pay a penalty for the breach.
As long as the penalty is paid in full, Maggie wouldn’t mind terminating the contract with Wilson Tech.
“You!”
Sophia wanted to argue but hesitated.
First of all, she didn’t have the authority to make decisions for Wilson Tech.
Even if she could act on behalf of Julia to terminate the contract with Cole, she knew that Cole’s backer was Johnny.
She was aware that both Julia and the rest of her family were eager to maintain a good relationship with him.
Her cole
If she rashly decided to terminate the contract with Cole, it would be equivalent to offending Johnny.
On this point alone, Julia would never easily agree to terminate the contract with Cole.
Old Lady Green, Old Lady Brown, and the others understood this logic too.
Seeing Sophia rendered speechless by Maggie’s retort, Old Lady Green felt uncomfortable. Even Janice, who had been watching, now looked at Maggie with even colder eyes.
They clearly didn’t expect someone to speak so boldly.
However, Janice clearly wasn’t taking her seriously. She coldly said, “You have a sharp tongue, but are you sure the signature you put on it has legal effect?”
President Kim hadn’t anticipated that Maggie would get into a confrontation with the Brown family and the Green family.
Hearing this, worried that things might spiral out of control, he tried to intervene by pulling at Maggie.
Just as he was about to mediate, Maggie shook off his hand, looked directly at Janice, and said with an even colder gaze, “Whether it has legal effect can be tested.
The only problem is, I’m afraid some people are too scared to try.”
Maggie spoke with unshakable confidence.
Janice pursed her lips.
Ever since Julia got together with Franklin, both the Brown and Green families had never really suffered any

grievances, thanks to Franklin’s protection.
What’s more, this person was Maggie.
“What’s going on?” At that moment, Julia walked over.
Maggie didn’t give anyone else a chance to speak and directly said, “Miss Green said that Cole’s capability is lacking. which causes our people to frequently come to Wilson Tech for maintenance.
I told them, if they feel that Cole is lacking, they can terminate the contract, but Miss Green said I’m not in charge of Cole, so I suggested they directly draft a breach of contract and have me sign it to see whether or not I can make
decisions for Cole.”
“Then this one-” Maggie pointed at Janice, “Said that my signature wouldn’t have legal effect.
I told them to try drafting the contract and let me sign it to see whether my signature holds any legal power.
But now, it seems like they’re too afraid to try. So, what’s your opinion, President Brown?”
Julia pursed her lips as well.
She hadn’t expected this to happen.
After hearing Maggie’s words, she was almost certain that once the breach of contract was drafted and Maggie signed it, it would definitely have legal force.
But if the termination contract was actually signed, not only would they need to pay a hefty penalty, but their company would also have to find another partner.
This could significantly delay the release of their autonomous vehicles.
That would be a huge loss.
Maggie noticed that Julia didn’t immediately respond and said, “So, President Brown, are you also afraid? You mocked Cole’s capabilities, and now, when you’re asked to draft the contract, none of you say a word. What’s going on? Do you think because you have power and influence, you can bully people at will?”
“It’s just a small matter,” Julia replied coldly. “Why make a big deal out of it, Miss Miller?”
“Your cousin openly insults people, and your mother, knowing she was wrong, still pressures us. Now, President Brown, you also know that your family is in the wrong, yet you refuse to apologize, and instead, you accuse us of making a big deal out of it…”
Maggie looked at her and said, “I’ve always heard that President Brown is reasonable and a very good person. But now it seems, not only you, President Brown, but even your family doesn’t seem to be as reasonable as everyone says.”
