Chapter 246
However, neither of them spoke up to address it.
Maggie and Johnny were chatting with someone and didn’t notice the silent exchange of glances between them.
Maggie hadn’t had dinner, so after chatting for a while, she left the group and headed to the buffet area to get something to eat.
Glen followed her shortly after, taking the initiative to start a conversation with her.
Levi happened to be in the buffet area as well. Upon seeing them, he froze for a moment, then muttered “Damn” before turning around and heading back to where Franklin and Julia were.
He told Franklin, “That Glen seems to have fallen for Maggie. The way he looks at her…”
Franklin glanced over in the direction Levi pointed and saw Maggie talking to Glen.
When Glen slightly lowered his head to look at Maggie, his gaze indeed carried the gentleness and affection typical of how a man looks at a woman.
Moreover, Glen was very considerate toward her, taking her empty cup from her hand and placing it aside, then immediately going to get her a cake from the upper tier and handing it to her…
Seeing Glen’s tenderness and attentiveness, Franklin raised an intrigued eyebrow.
After Levi finished speaking, Julia had also immediately turned her attention to Maggie and Glen.
Glen was indeed being gentle and considerate toward Maggie.
If one didn’t know the truth, even she might have believed that Glen had truly fallen for Maggie.
However-
“Glen will probably pretend to like Maggie at first, and once she falls for him, he’ll cruelly dump her—”
Thinking back to what Glen’s friend had said, Julia looked back at Maggie, who appeared to be happily chatting with Glen.
Had she really been captivated by Glen?
Or could it be that Maggie really thought Glen had fallen for her?
With this thought, Julia lowered her head slightly, and the corners of her lips curled into a subtle smile.
She looked at Franklin and noticed that despite seeing another good–looking man “chasing” Maggie, he remained completely unaffected. This made her smile even more.
Levi suddenly recalled something and said to Franklin, “By the way, didn’t the tech company under Wilson’s name want to collaborate with Cole? Aren’t you going to talk to Johnny about it?”
Franklin took a sip of his drink and replied, “There are too many people over there, it’s fine to go later.”
If the Wilson Group were really going to cooperate with Cole, the frequency of meetings between Maggie and Franklin would definitely increase.
To prevent any lingering feelings between them, if he switched to another woman, he would probably try
everything to stop the collaboration between their families. But as far as Julia was concerned…
She smiled faintly in disregard.
On the other side, Harry was stopped by someone.
As he was wrapping up a conversation, he turned around and saw that Maggie and Glen were still talking, and judging by Maggie’s expression, they seemed to be having a rather good time…
He had known Maggie for quite a while now. Although their relationship had improved significantly in recent times, it could be because of their past misunderstandings.
Normally, whenever Maggie spoke with him, she never showed such a happy expression.
And she was talking a lot more than usual…
At the moment, he didn’t know Glen very well.
But judging by his appearance, Glen was definitely quite impressive.
With that thought in mind, Harry’s eyes darkened slightly. He excused himself from the person he was speaking with, saying, “Sorry, I’ve got something to take care of. Let’s continue this conversation later.”
Then, without waiting for a reply, he turned and walked toward Maggie and Glen.
As soon as Harry approached, Glen noticed him.
His thin lips pressed together in displeasure, and his gaze turned cold as he looked at Harry.
Harry pretended not to notice, walking toward them without a pause in his steps.
He reached Maggie’s side and casually faced her. “What are you two talking about?”
Maggie didn’t pick up on the tension between them and answered, “Just work stuff.”
The fact that Maggie was chatting so happily with Glen indicated that Glen must have strong professional abilities.
This meant that compared to him, Maggie probably had more in common with Glen to talk about.
Moreover, Glen was still working at Cole.
Glen had far more opportunities to interact with Maggie than he did.
With this thought, Harry’s smile faded slightly.
Just as he was about to speak, Johnny walked over.
Seeing that both Glen and Harry were standing next to Maggie, Johnny found it a bit odd.
But he didn’t dwell on it and simply said, “Everyone’s here.”
As soon as he spoke, Franklin and Julia arrived as well. “Mr. Gray,” they greeted.
Johnny smiled thinly, “Mr. Wilson, is there something you need?”
Franklin replied, “I wanted to discuss a project with Mr. Gray, I’m not sure if you’re interested.”
