He frowned. "I thought Mr. Gray was someone who separated personal and professional matters."

"I am," Johnny said, no longer hiding his true feelings. "But it depends on the situation."

The implication was clear: when it came to Maggie, there was no guarantee that Johnny would separate personal from professional matters.

Although Harry and Julia had good relations with Franklin, Johnny had never been particularly fond of ni, despite the high quality of Harry's proposal. Now, however, with Harry putting aside personal grievances and inviting Maggie to join the dinner, Johnny felt a bit more favorable toward him. Still, he remained professional and replied, "Monday? Not sure yet. If I'm free, I'll contact you. You don't need to worry about it, Mr. Becker." Harry smiled. "I'll take your word for it, Mr. Gray."
