Chapter 114
It was left for Franklin to sit.
Grandmother Brown glanced at the tand asked, “Julie, is Frank here yet? Why don’t you
call him and remind him?”
Julia also had the sthought.
She took out her phone to call Franklin.
But the call didn’t go through.
There were many guests attending the Green family’s housewarming banquet today. The Green family needed to
go around to toast each table, greet the guests, and build srapport to strengthen their connections.
This process naturally involved Julia.
After all, the guests cto the banquet primarily because of Julia.
And with Julia present, the guests would certainly give them more face.
As the Green family approached, guests stood up politely to greet them.
After exchanging pleasantries, someone asked, “Miss Brown, has President Wilson arrived
yet?”
Julia replied, “He’s on his way. He'll be here soon.”
Just as she finished speaking, someone not far from them said, “My friend toldthat President Wilson also
went to the Miller family.”
“President Wilson went to the Miller family? Is that true?”
“There's a photo. How could it be fake? Take a look.”

“That... is really President Wilson!”
Everyone turned to look at Julia.
They weren't particularly close to the Green family, but they cto the banquet because they wanted to give
face to Franklin, and because the Miller family’s business had been in- decline and was unlikely to recover.
Now, not only had Nolan gone to the Miller family, but even Franklin had gone to celebrate the birthday of Old
Lady Miller.
So, what exactly were they here for?
Hearing that Franklin had gone to the Miller family, Julia didn’t panic.
She knew that Old Lady Wilson and Old Lady Miller had a good relationship. With Old Lady Miller's 70th birthday,
it was only natural for Franklin to go in her place, especially since Old Lady Wilson couldn't attend in person.
She had anticipated this.
But now that Franklin had gone to the Miller family, even though it was under Old Lady Wilson's orders, she still
wasn't very happy about it.
Seeing that everyone had assumed something was wrong between her and Franklin after hearing that he had
gone to the Miller family instead of coming to the banquet, she coldly
said,
“Old Lady Wilson and Old Lady Miller are good friends. Frank just went over to sit with her for a while, following
the elder’s command.”
There had indeed been rumors before that the Miller family and the Wilson family had a good relationship.
For years, everyone had seen no interaction between the two families, and they had assumed it was just gossip.
Now, hearing Julia’s words, it seemed there might be struth to it?

At that moment, someone walked in from outside.
The person was holding a gift box and cover to Julia and the Green family. He spoke to Julia, saying,
“Hello, Miss Brown. President Wilson had an urgent matter cup, and he might be very
late. He was worried he’d miss the banquet, so he askedto bring this gift to you...”
Julia reached out to take it, saying, “I understand. Thank you.”
Since Old Lady Miller was a friend of Old Lady Wilson, and Old Lady Miller was celebrating her birthday, it was
entirely reasonable for Franklin to go there first, then chere later.
Seeing that Franklin had anticipated their doubts about his relationship with Julia, he had thoughtfully sent
someone with a gift in advance, showing his consideration and care for
her.
Given Franklin's status, his thoughtfulness toward Julia was undeniable.
Thinking this over, the guests smiled apologetically. Though the Green family was unhappy that Franklin had
gone to the Miller family, they didn’t show it.
Once the awkward atmosphere had passed, Miles raised his glass and thanked the guests
for coming.
With Miles leading the way, the atmosphere quickly beclively again.
Julia felt warmth in her heart when she saw how considerate Franklin had been. Any lingering unhappiness soon
vanished.
Noticing that Harry still hadn't returned, she walked over and asked Levi, “Why hasn't
Harry cback yet?”
Levi replied, “Letgive him a call.”
After a brief phone conversation, Levi hung up and said, “Harry said he had an urgent matter to attend to and
left early. He askedto apologize to you.”

“Since he had something urgent, | understand,” Julia replied with concern. “Did Harry say
what the matter was?”
“He didn’t mention it.” Levi didn’t think much of it at first, but for sreason, he suddenly recalled something
and said, “Could it have something to do with the person Harry likes?”
When Julia heard this, her smile faltered slightly, and her tone beca little distant. “Harry hasn't mentioned
anything about that recently. | can’t really guess.”
“True.” Levi stroked his chin, smiling. “I guess we'll know next twe ask him.”
Julia lowered her gaze, murmuring, “Mm.”
Meanwhile, at the main table of the Miller family, Franklin sat down and glanced at Maggie.
Maggie was indeed a little surprised when he first appeared.
But she quickly calmed herself.
When he looked over at her, she remained expressionless and coldly asked, “What is it?”
Franklin shifted his gaze away and softly replied, “Nothing.”
After that, the two of them didn’t speak again.
Maggie's two cousins, who had never seen Franklin in person before, were now looking at him with some
curiosity.
As someone who had held power for many years, even though Franklin didn’t deliberately put on any airs, his
every movement still exuded the demeanor of someone accustomed to being in a high position.
When they caught his gaze, they instinctively averted their eyes and dared not look at him
anymore.
