They were aware that Yale had recently recommended a friend to Johnny. However, Yale hadn’t provided any further details, so they weren’t fully aware of the situation.
What happened with Maggie today was actually similar to something that had occurred last
year.
Last year, the girl involved was the mistress of one of the company’s senior executives. She
was sweet–faced, confident, and charming.
She claimed to be a graduate student from a top domestic university with a solid foundation
in the field.
However, upon further questioning, it turned out that she was completely clueless, even about basic professional terms.
In the end, not only did they doubt whether she had ever attended a university, but it was also suggested that she might not have even finished high school!
Now the same situation had repeated itself, and Johnny had dismissed a colleague with
such an impressive resume to make room for someone like Maggie.
It was understandable why Yale was angry.
So, not only Yale, but others too felt that Johnny was mixing personal feelings with
professional matters.
Johnny noticed the others‘ attitudes but didn’t rush to address it. He merely asked, “What work has Yale been involved with recently?”
Simon, who had worked with Yale, briefly outlined the details.
Johnny nodded and turned to Maggie. “Since Yale is stepping down, could you take over his remaining tasks?”

Maggie had no objections. “Sure.”
She then confidently addressed the others. “In the future, I look forward to working with
you all.”
The others smiled politely but didn’t seem overly enthusiastic. They were hoping that Maggie really had some skills, as they didn’t want to be left with all the work.
As for Simon, who had worked with Yale, he looked somewhat troubled but could only respond with politeness, “The materials are all here. If you have any questions, feel free to
ask me.”
Maggie replied, “Alright, thank you.‘
Simon thought, “Well, at least her attitude is good.”
After leaving Cole Corporation, Yale immediately called Julia.
“Maggie started working at Cole?”
“Yes.” Yale found it strange. “You didn’t know?”
Wasn’t it because Maggie had pushed her out that she was able to join Cole?
“I didn’t know.”
Julia thought Johnny had refused to hire her just to get back at Maggie.
Now that Maggie had entered Cole, did that mean she had already left Wilson Group?
Yale paused for a moment. “Then what was the private reason you mentioned before?”
Julia didn’t want to go into details. “Some personal grudges.”
“But-”
“What’s wrong?”

Yale had misunderstood. Her resignation had nothing to do with Julia.
Yale couldn’t help but ask, “What about Maggie’s abilities? I heard she hasn’t even gotten into a PhD program yet, she-”
“She hasn’t even gone to graduate school; she only has an undergraduate degree,” Julia
interrupted coldly.
“Ah? Really?” Yale asked, surprised.
“Mm,” Julia replied, her tone cold.
At this point, Julia’s indifference was clear. She hadn’t expected Maggie to leave Wilson
Group.
What surprised her even more was that after leaving, Maggie didn’t consider further education but instead used connections to get into another company.
Julia had to admit that she didn’t have the vision or the ambition for a better future.
Yale asked, “Julie, what are you planning to do next?”
“I have an official car racing competition coming up. I’ll need to spend quite a bit of time practicing. I’ll consider work after a while.”
“Oh, I see…” Yale knew that Julia could do anything.
Sometimes, he wondered how she managed to juggle so many activities without losing her professional knowledge.
However, considering how talented Julia was, he felt that she was different from others. Since she dared to do these things, she must have had a clear plan in her mind.
Meanwhile, in Wilson Group, Franklin was flipping through documents without lifting his head. He said to Chad, “Get me a cup of coffee.”
“Yes, sir.”

This was the first time Sherry personally made coffee for Franklin. She was both excited
and nervous.
–
Following Maggie’s instructions step by step, she carefully brewed the coffee, and Chad brought it to Franklin.
Franklin set his documents down and took the coffee, stirring it gently. When he brought
the cup to his lips, he paused.
