Johanny crossed his legs, “What do you mean by ‘for color or unable to distinguish right from wrong?”
Beth.
Of course, this was something Rex didn’t say out loud.
Johnny knew his thoughts and smiled. “But I think the one who’s confused between right and wrong and for color is
not me, but someone else.”
Before Rex could respond, Johnny continued, “Also, my teacher’s most valued student is not me, but someone else. Mr. Hardin, you’re flattering me.”
Rex didn’t expect him to bring up Nolan, and Johnny still showed no signs of remorse.
Johnny wasn’t going to indulge him and said directly, “If Mr. Hardin feels uncomfortable and wants to help that General Manager Brown, you could also choose to terminate the contract with us. Of course, the condition is that Mr. Hardin has to compensate Cole for the corresponding losses.”
Rex thought he had been speaking nicely to Johnny, but Johnny had shown nothing but hostility toward him. In fact, out of anger, he had even spoken of terminating the contract with him.
It was absolutely absurd.
He pressed his lips together and said seriously, “Mr. Gray, please don’t act out of impulse-”
Johnny looked at him without blinking, “I’m not acting out of impulse. I’m serious.”
Rex was stunned.
Johnny’s gaze was cold and distant, but his expression was serious. In that moment, Rex realized that Johnny was
indeed serious.
But just because he said a few words on behalf of Brown, was this really necessary?
The more seriously Johnny became, the more Rex felt like Johnny was playing games.
He pressed his lips tightly together, wanting to say something, but Johnny had already grown tired of talking with
him.
He stood up, coldly saying, “Since Mr. Hardin is not interested in discussing business, I won’t keep you any longer. Quinn, see him out.”
Rex’s face darkened. “Mr. Gray!”

Johnny gave him a half smile. “Mr. Hardin seems quite concerned about other people’s girlfriends. I wonder if Mr. Wilson knows about your concern for General Manager Brown?”
Rex paused, lowering his gaze, and his tone softened a little. “I have business dealings with General Manager Brown. She seems very sincere about resolving the conflict between you two, so I couldn’t help but try to persuade you”
“Hah, really?”
He didn’t openly admit his feelings for Julia, and Johnny wasn’t interested in pressing further. He said, “I’m not in the mood to discuss business any longer, Mr. Hardin, please leave.”
“Mr. Gray!”
“Quinn, see him out.”
Johnny was adamant. Rex knew there was no use in staying any longer. After glancing at Johnny, he turned and left.
When Rex left Cole, he saw Julia still waiting by the side and stopped in his tracks.
Julia saw him and spoke, “Mr. Hardin, you finished your discussion so quickly?”
Rex paused before replying. “Yes.”
Then, he continued, “I spoke with Mr. Gray. He knows you’re waiting for him, but it seems he has no intention of meeting with you. Julia, maybe you should go home and rest.”
Julia shook her head, saying, “This matter is extremely important to me. I still want to see Mr. Gray. If you have something to do, please go ahead.”
Seeing her anxious and persistent, a trace of pain flashed in Rex’s eyes.
But he had already done everything he could to help her, and-
Just as he thought this, he suddenly froze, recalling Nolan.
If Nolan knew what Johnny was doing, he probably would order him to rein in his reckless behavior, right?
There was no other connection between him and Julia except their business dealings. Even though he felt sorry for
her, he had no standing to say anything.
Before leaving, he could only say to Julia, “I’ll be going now. See you next time.”
Julia smiled and nodded.
Rex turned and left.

After getting into his car, he hesitated for a few minutes before calling Reed.
Several hours later, Reed returned his call and asked, “What’s up?”
Rex hesitated for a moment before replying, “Actually, it’s nothing major, but… perhaps it’s because Johnny has achieved so much. He’s become more and more willful and reckless in dealing with others…”
