Once the termination was confirmed, Julia called Franklin to inform him.

“During the auction, I slipped up while chatting with Madam Gray. She caught onto something I said, and now it’s very clear that Johnny has no interest in working with Wilson Tech anymore. Even if I took it to court and won, there’s no guarantee they wouldn’t create trouble later.
