Mr. CEO, Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time Novel

 Chapter 477

The others had already moved on to another topic. Only then did Julia open the video of the Wilson Group press conference and begin watching. At the start of the event, the camera showed not only the host and Maggie on stage but also the audience and media reporters below. Julia immediately spotted Franklin. She had known he would attend the Wilson Group press conference, but seeing him seated in the audience rather than on stage made her pause. The camera swept across Franklin and the people around him, but even with that brief glimpse she could tell he seemed to be in a good mood. And whether it was her imagination or not, she kept feeling that whenever Franklin looked toward the stage, he was looking at Maggie, Julia’s fingers tightened slightly around her mouse. After the host finished speaking, the camera shifted to today’s main figure, Maggie. Sophia had said the entire press conference felt like Maggie’s show, and that she was the one answering almost all the technical questions from reporters. Once Julia started watching, she realized it was true. Maggie was unmistakably the center of attention. She answered every professional question calmly and confidently. Combined with her naturally striking looks, Julia had to admit that Maggie at that moment looked undeniably captivating She was watching with live comments on. The screen was full of people praising Maggie’s beauty and competence, many curious about her background. One viewer wrote: “This girl is actually the key figure behind the Wilson Group’s technological breakthrough? She is this talented and this gorgeous? She could be famous even in the entertainment industry. This is too unfair.” Another wrote: “Exactly. What’s her background? She looks so young, yet she’s leading a major project at a company like Cole where top talent gathers. Does she have some kind of connection?” There were many comments. Someone replied: “I don’t know much about her personal life, but I do know she skipped three grades and entered Astramont University early. She graduated at eighteen, and she was always top of her major. I’m not sure why she didn’t go to graduate school. It used to feel like a pity, but seeing how excellent she is now, I’m honestly happy for her.” Another comment said: “Eighteen and graduated from Astramont University? No wonder she can lead a project at Wilson Group and Cole at such a young age.” Someone else added: “I heard she’s also Mr. Gray’s girlfriend. She published a paper recently that caused a huge stir both in the US and abroad. Several internationally famous experts even went to Cole to recruit her themselves, but she’s Mr. Gray’s girlfriend. How could she be poached so easily?” Another wrote: “Talented, beautiful, and with an equally outstanding boyfriend. She’s a real-life winner, Incredible.” Julia watched for quite a while, and by then the press conference was coming to an end. When it wrapped up, the camera returned to Franklin and the others. Franklin still had a smile on his face, Only now did Julia realize that although he attended the event, the host had never mentioned Franklin at all. In other words, his presence had not been required. Yet he still went. Why? Because he cared deeply about the project? Because he was pleased with Wilson Group’s breakthrough? Maybe both. Or maybe- He had gone just to see Maggie. That thought made Julia’s heart tighten sharply. Chapter 477 At that moment, a message popped up on her phone. It was from Franklin: “Levi asked if we want to grab dinner together. Are you free later?” Julia looked at the message, then back at Franklin’s face in the video. After a long pause, she replied, “I’m free.”
