She had been there before. Still, since she had already accepted the invitation, it wouldn't be appropriate to back out now. Early Saturday morning, she drove out as planned, When she and Johnny arrived at the golf course, Ryan, Reed, and Jordan were already there. Seeing them arrive, Ryan smiled and said, "You're here?" "Mm," Maggie nodded. Ryan asked, "Do you know how to play golf?" "I've learned a bit," she replied.

Awhile later, just as Maggie was putting her club away, she noticed two people approaching from a distance. It was Franklin and Julia. Usually, for these kinds of outings, Franklin and Julia would also bring Harry and Levi along. But today, it was just the two of them. They had heard from the staff that Ryan was here, and cby hoping to say hello ---- Julia hadn't expected to see Maggie and Johnny as well Franklin skipped over them and went straight to greet Ryan. "Uncle Gibson." Ryan, who had been close with Felix Wilson in the past, smiled. "Franklin, huh? Out here golfing this early?" "Yeah, just getting sfresh air." Reed and Jordan both knew the golf course belonged to the Wilson family. Though they occasionally played here themselves, they rarely ran into Franklin. It was ironic that they'd bump into him today-when Maggie happened to be here. They were well aware of Maggie and Franklin's history. But since Maggie didn't seem fazed by his presence, they relaxed. Johnny, however, was clearly displeased. While Franklin exchanged a few polite words with Ryan, neither Maggie nor Johnny spoke. Still, Franklin took the initiative to greet Johnny.

We're working through the adjustment period." Franklin smiled. "I thought things were going quite smoothly. If Wilson Tech has fallen short in any way, I'd appreciate your guidance, Mr. Gray." Johnny replied flatly, "The rest of Wilson Tech has been fine. It's just that Mr.
Wilson tends to blur the lines between business and personal matters. That's caused sissues in our cooperation... I'm sure you understand what I mean, right?" Franklin understood. So did Julia.
