Chapter 58
The distance was a hit far, so she couldn’t clearly discern the emotion in Franklin’s eyes, but she did notice that he seemed to
smile.
Was he smiling at her?
Maybe she was overthinking it.
ggie, feeling a bit confused, looked away,
Levi also noticed this and asked. “What’s so funny?”
Franklin smiled and said, “Nothing.”
Levi didn’t pay much attention to it.
He noticed that when Maggie looked at them – especially when she looked at Franklin- she seemed as calm as if she were looking at a stranger, raising an eyebrow.
He wondered whether Maggie was still playing the cat–and–mouse game of pretending to be indifferent to Franklin or if she was simply displaying some kind of understanding.
If it was the latter, then, knowing that Franklin didn’t want to publicly acknowledge their marital relationship, it made sense that she would keep her distance from him, avoiding any sign of their connection, whether it was at the banquet or now at the
exhibition.
To be honest, Maggie seemed quite considerate in this respect.
Arthat moment, Julia approached. “What are you two talking about?“
Levi quickly responded with a smile, “Nothing.” Then he asked. “Have you finished your conversation?”
Before Julia could answer, someone walked over with Professor Liam,
“This is Professor Liam, the one I mentioned earlier the algorithm genius, Miss Brown.”
This was the same Professor Liam who had been introduced to Maggie at the banquet by Johnny.
That day, when Julia had gone to find Johnny, Professor Liam had naturally seen her, but since Professor Liam was rather unremarkable in appearance, and Julia had not attended the banquet to meet figures from the tech field, she hadn’t noticed
him.
Now, upon seeing Professor Liam again, she didn’t recognize him at first.
That day, Julia and Johnny seemed to have had some unpleasant interaction, but Professor Liam had been engaged in conversation with Maggie and hadn’t paid much attention to what had happened.
Now, when seeing Julia, he didn’t bring up the previous events but instead smiled and greeted, “Hello, Miss Brown.”

Mr. CEO, Your Wide Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time
“Hello
The Brown family’s tech company was in urgent need of some talented individuals in the field. Upon learning about Professor Liam’s background, Julia was extremely polite, and Logan also made a point of greeting him.
Soon, Julia and Professor Liam began talking.
With so many exhibits at the event, there were plenty of topics to discuss, and they engaged in a lengthy conversation.
However, Logan and Lauren didn’t understand the technical details.
ir purpose for attending the exhibition was simply to network.
Of course, once Franklin arrived, Logan and Lauren were also paying attention to him, curious about how he would react upon seeing Maggie,
And soon enough, they realized that after Franklin saw Maggie… he didn’t react at all.
It was as if he had seen a stranger.
He didn’t even spare her a second glance.
It was rumored that Maggie had used underhanded tactics to force Franklin into marrying her.
Franklin had no feelings for her.
After marriage, he hardly ever stayed at home.
He felt nothing but disdain for her.
It seemed like the rumors were true.
As the exhibition drew to a close, the event staff notified the key personnel from each company to proceed to the conference
hall for the summary meeting.
Johnny and Maggie represented Cole and entered the conference hall.
Maggie and Johnny walked ahead
When Julia and the others saw that Maggie was entering the conference hall, they were quite surprised.
Logan said to Julia, “Does Johnny really value her that much?”
Although they had noticed Johnny bringing Maggie to the exhibition, they hadn’t realized just how much attention he was paying to her.
This was surprising to her.
After all,
all, Maggie b
had already been married and had a child.
While Maggie was indeed beautiful, Johnny was well–rounded in every way. It wouldn’t have been difficult for him to find someqne more suitable, so why was he so invested in Maggie, a woman who was about to enter her second marriage?

Julia didn’t respond.
Although they had entered the exhibition, there were limited seats in the conference hall, and since their company wasn’t showcasing any exhibits, they would usually sit at the back.
However, Franklin had invited Julia to sit at the front..
Upon hearing this. Logan chuckled.
Maggie was there, yet Franklin had asked Julia to
alia to sit in the f
tront…
gan also laughed and said. “I heard that Mr. Nolan will be giving a speech later. Sitting in the front row increases the chances of talking to him.”
Julia naturally understood this as well.
