He knew that Maggie would undoubtedly whisper in Johnny’s ear, distorting the truth about what had happened between them.

Not too concerned about Johnny’s attitude, he said, “A few days ago, I visited Cole. I’m not sure if Mr. Gray is aware of that?”

“I’m aware. Mag told me,” Johnny replied. “I’ve seen Mr. Hardin’s proposal, and I think it’s good, but… Personally, I’m not fond of it. So I’m afraid, Mr. Hardin, the collaboration is…”

Rex hadn’t expected that Johnny would be so biased because of Maggie, not recognizing

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

His father had instructed him to focus the next two years of collaborations on Cole, which meant that the prospects of these two projects were better than most people thought.

Though there had been some unpleasantness between him and Johnny, Rex didn’t intend to give up on collaborating with Cole just yet.

He said, “Since Mr. Gray thinks my proposal has issues, I’ll bring a new one to Cole soon.”

He glanced at Harry and added, “Since Mr. Gray still has other matters, I won’t keep you any longer. Farewell.”

With that, he turned and left.

Rex didn’t mention Maggie at all.
