Chapter 149

Over there, there were some pastries that Johnny wanted to try.

They were also planning to go over, but someone called out to them and started discussing the project.

Over there, after Jimmy greeted Julia, she also nodded to Harry and Levi.

‘Mr. Becker, Mr. Kwan.”

Harry nodded slightly.

At that moment, Franklin, who had just finished a phone call, walked over.

Thinking about how Jimmy and Maggie had danced together for quite a while earlier, Levi touched his nose and cleared his throat.

After all, Maggie was still Franklin’s wife…

Harry’s gaze shifted slightly.

However, Franklin didn’t seem to care about that at all.

Upon seeing Jimmy, he even took the initiative to greet her:

“Mr. Hall.”

“Mr. Wilson.”

Franklin clinked his glass with hers, took a small sip of wine, and said, “It’s been a while.”

Jimmy tightened her grip on the glass. “It has indeed been a while.”

Levi: “…”

Okay, he was overly worried after all.

The group of them gathered together and started chatting.

Meanwhile, Maggie and Johnny were kept busy by someone for quite a while.

They didn’t have a chance to meet with Franklin and the others again.

Seeing that the time was getting late, they excused themselves from the host and left.

On Monday, shortly after Johnny arrived at the company, someone came to inform him that General Manager from Wilson Group had arrived downstairs and wished to discuss a potential partnership.

Accompanying General Manager was Julia.

Johnny: “…”

If it were Franklin himself coming to discuss a partnership, he definitely wouldn’t agree to meet.

But he had a good relationship with General Manager from Wilson Group.

Since Franklin had asked him to meet with the manager, it would be difficult to turn him down.

It must be said, Franklin really knew how to handle people.

Moreover, he had even sent Julia along.

Johnny’s temples throbbed with pain.

He gritted his teeth, went to find Maggie, and told her about the situation.

Maggie said, “Meeting with Julia isn’t a big deal.”

Just because you meet her doesn’t mean you have to discuss the partnership.

“True,” Johnny said, then asked, “Would you like to come along?”

She finished reading Julia’s proposal in just a few minutes.

She handed the file back to Julia, looked at her, and said, “It’s clear that Miss Brown has prepared thoroughly, but there are quite a few issues. Compared to other companies that have come to us seeking cooperation, your proposal doesn’t have a competitive edge.”

Julia listened and said, “Is that so?”

Her sharp eyes fixed on Maggie as she spoke again, “In that case, could you tell me what issues you found in my proposal so that I can improve it based on your suggestions?”

making things difficult.

Maggie smiled slightly and replied, “Miss Brown, the issues with the proposal are your responsibility. If you can’t identify the problems yourself, how can you ask us to do it for you? Do you think it’s appropriate?

You should understand that we’re not obligated to cooperate with you. By asking us to point out the problems, are you telling me that you want to cooperate with us but don’t even know what our company

needs?

If that’s the case, then I’m even more certain that your proposal doesn’t meet our requirements.”

Julia had indeed meant to challenge Maggie, thinking that Maggie wouldn’t be able to identify the flaws in Her proposal.

She had set a trap for her.

As long as Maggie could list the issues, she would be able to easily counter them.

What Julia didn’t expect was that Maggie didn’t fall into the trap at all. Instead, she had turned the situation around and dug an even deeper hole for Julia.

Julia, though stunned inside, kept her face neutral.

“Miss Miller, you misunderstood me. What I meant was that cooperation is about mutual benefit. Since there are problems, wouldn’t it be better if we discuss and improve the proposal together? That would benefit both sides, wouldn’t it?”

Maggie paused for a moment, surprised by her response.

She asked, “Is this your first time negotiating a partnership?”
