Chapter 277
After Mr. and Mrs. Gray left, Franklin asked, âHave you finished talking to Mrs. Gray?â
Julia smiled and nodded, âYes.â
From Mrs. Grayâs expression earlier, it was clear that she was growing more and more dissatisfied with Maggie.
Mrs. Gray had actually known about the situation between Wilson Tech and Cole for some time. Johnny had already given her a headsâup.
When Mrs. Gray spoke with Julia earlier, there hadnât been a phone call. In fact, Mrs. Gray had recorded their conversation.
She had distanced herself a bit, glanced over at Franklin and Julia, and then sent the recording to Johnny.
Johnny and Maggie hadnât finished work yet. After listening to the recording, Johnny smiled and went to Maggieâs office to tell her about it.
After hearing the details, Maggie said, âNow Iâm almost certainâweâve definitely won this lawsuit.â
âThatâs right.â
Their insistence on suing for a contract termination wasnât just about wanting to break the contract with Wilson Tech; it was also about pressuring Julia.
They wanted to force her into taking action to try to stop the termination. If Julia tried to approach the Miller family or his family to reach a settlement, she would inevitably be tricked into saying something or creating more conflicts.
In short, the more Julia tried to do, the more mistakes she would make. If she just stuck to expressing her apolog s or willingness to cooperate, then after the trial, they might not be able to terminate the contract Even if they did, the compensation would likely not be very high.
But now, things had changed.
The conflicts between them had already been caused by Julia, and now she was framing the termination as something Maggie had manipulated because of personal grudges.
It was important to remember that Maggie was not only a core technical staff member of Cole, but also the key person in charge of their cooperation with Wilson Tech.
Julia had not only disrespected the actual details of their cooperation but had also, in an attempt to avoid the termination, unfairly smeared the key technical personnel of their project.
This provided them with extremely favorable evidence for the case, making it impossible for them to continue

cooperating
Furthermore, Julia claimed that she and Maggie had personal grievances, which was why Maggie wanted them to
terminate the contract
However, when they reached court, if the judge asked about their personal ismes, want Julia worried that Maggie would openly reveal all of their past conflicts?
If it came to that, Julia would likely be more concerned about her com personal grievances with Maggie heing exposed than about the potential termination of the contract between Wilson Tech and Cole.
At that point, to avoid answering that question, julia might even be willing to directly agree to the termination and pay the exorbitant fees they were asking for.
Thinking of this, Johnnyâs smile grew even brighter.
Just as Johany left Maggieâs office, Maggieâs phone rang
It was a call from Isabella.
Actually, Isabella had called her earlier that morning, but she hadnât answered.
Tomorrow was the day of Isabellaâs fencing competition. Isabella must have been calling to confirm whether she could accompany her to the event, right?
But then again, it wasnât certain. Maybe she had changed her mind and didnât want her to attend the competition. Perhaps she would prefer that Franklin and Julia go with her instead.
After all, such things had happened before.
With this thought in mind, Maggie still didnât answer Isabellaâs call
She set her phone aside and planned to finish the data processing before calling it a day.
Isabella called her several more times. When she saw that Maggie wasnât answering, she felt a sense of disappointment and sadness.
Later that evening, when Franklin returned home, he found Isabella sitting on the sofa, holding a small toy, looking glum and upset.
Franklin immediately guessed the problem: âDid Mom not answer your call or couldnât she come with you?â
Isabella pouted, tugging at the toyâs fuzzy ears. âShe didnât answer.â
She was quiet for a moment, then looked up to find Franklin loosening his tie and watching her, seemingly waiting for her to make a decision. After a few seconds of silence, she lowered her gaze and said. âSince Mom doesnât have time, could you and Aunt Julia accompany me to the competition tomorrow?â

Franklin smiled. âSure.â
âT11 let Aunt Julia know.â
âAlright.â
âGoodnight, Dad.â
After saying that, Isabella hugged the toy and went upstairs.
