Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 1086

Kearney straightened up, looking seriously at Francis, and asked, "So, Mr. Johnson, where do you work?" "Me?"

Francis raised an eyebrow, his smile cool and collected. "Well, thanks to my ancestors, I manage the family business." Family business?

Kearney and Faustina exchanged a glance, their hearts suddenly racing.

"Could it be..." Kearney swallowed hard, probing cautiously, "Are you... the Mr. Johnson of the Johnson Group?" "Indeed."

Without a moment's hesitation, Francis nodded, confirming the truth.

Kearney and Faustina's eyes widened in shock, leaving them speechless.

"Rebecca..."

Galloway had heard as well. He turned to Rebecca White, seeking confirmation, "Is this true?"

"Grandpa..."

Rebecca White's mouth hung slightly open.

She found herself in a precarious position.

Suddenly, she was thrust into the spotlight...

Francis shot her a glance, taking the initiative to answer Galloway, "Grandpa, I am indeed the CEO of the Johnson Group, no doubt about it. If you don't believe me... should I ask my grandmother to verify?" "Francis!" Rebecca White exclaimed in a fluster, giving him a reproachful look.

"My apologies..." Francis immediately softened his tone, "I should have discussed it with you first. I was just worried Grandpa wouldn't believe me."

The back-and-forth between the two was pure playful banter of a young couple.
