Chapter 90
Maggie froze.
Johnny paused as well. He glanced at Maggie, then whispered, “Teacher… Why would Mr. Wilson want to meet with you? Can you tell us?”
“He said he wanted to introduce someone to me,” Nolan replied.
With that, he ended the call without saying more.
Johnny turned to Maggie and said, “Could it be that the person Mr. Wilson wants to Introduce to Teacher is Julia?”
It was during their recent dealings with the Brown family that Johnny found out that the Brown family also had its own tech company.
Julia had previously wanted to work at their company to be involved with their programming language, cuap.
The outside world believed that cuap was developed by Nolan’s team, even though the truth
was more complicated.
Now that Julia couldn’t join their company, it was very likely that she would reach out to
Nolan to study cuap. It was even possible that Julia might want to become one of Nolan’s
students.
Thinking of this, Johnny couldn’t help but curse under his breath. “Damn!”
Maggie had the same thought.
She suspected that this might be Franklin’s way of compensating her for not allowing Julia’s family to move into the house across from her uncle.
After all, given Franklin’s feelings for Julia, how could he allow her to suffer in order to help Maggie?

Johnny said, “If she really has hidden talents, doesn’t that mean-”
Although they were students of Nolan, and although he was usually indifferent to them, their relationship with him was actually quite good.
Nolan was strict with them, but in fact, he was a cold person with a warm heart. He also
had strong principles.
If Julia’s abilities and talents were truly impressive, Nolan wouldn’t refuse to take her on just because of the history between her and Maggie.
So…
Maggie quickly composed herself and said, “Let’s focus on our own work for now.”
The only thing she could do was focus on improving herself.
That evening, she returned home later than usual, and Grandma was already asleep.
However, when she got home, Franklin hadn’t yet returned.
He might not return at all.
But when she came out of the bathroom after a shower, she found that Franklin had
actually come back.
Seeing him, her steps faltered for a moment, and she nodded at him slightly as a greeting.
As for why he had met with Nolan today, she didn’t ask a word.
Franklin didn’t speak either. After giving her a glance, he headed to the bathroom for a
shower.
The next morning, Maggie woke up a bit late.
When she went downstairs, she heard Grandma’s sarcastic voice directed at Franklin: “Last
night, I was already in bed by ten, and you still weren’t home. I thought you wouldn’t come
back!”

Franklin, sitting across from Grandma, calmly drank his water without replying.
Grandma knocked on the table, pretending to be angry. “Say something! Stop pretending to
be mute!”
Franklin put down his cup and, seeing Maggie coming downstairs, glanced at her before turning back to Grandma and saying, “Didn’t you say I had to come back and accompany you this morning?”
“Hmph, I thought you’d ignore me again!”
“I wouldn’t dare.”
hough he said this, his tone was indifferent, showing no sign of discomfort or guilt.
Grandma was so annoyed she stopped talking to him and waved at Maggie, signaling her to
come and sit.
Maggie sat down and asked, “Grandma, are you going out to play later?”
“It’s not ‘you all,‘ it’s ‘we!” Grandma smiled. “We’ll go together. Mag, where would you like to go? Grandma will follow your lead.”
Maggie sometimes felt like a very boring person. She couldn’t think of any entertaining places that everyone would enjoy.
She said, “I’m fine with anything. It’s up to you.”
Grandma already had a plan in mind, and hearing Maggie’s words, she asked,
“How about hot springs? Last time we were supposed to go but didn’t get a chance, and I ended up getting sick from the frustration. This time, someone’s going to make it up to me.”
