Divorce LONG 274
Reed was unwilling to help, so Rex immediately decided to contact Nolan directly.
However…
He didn’t have Nolan’s contact information.
Rex texted Reed asking for it, and Reed replied with just two words: [No.]
Before Rex could react, Reed sent another message: “I’ve already made arrangements with Uncle Hardin. Stop wasting your time.”
Upon seeing this, Rex was genuinely angry.
Yet, when he tried calling again, Reed refused to pick up.
Since it seemed like neither Reed nor Jordan could be of any help…
Rex thought of Jimmy.
He remembered Jimmy mentioning that, at work, he had some interactions with Nolan.
Moreover, they had even had a meal together.
With that in mind, Rex decided to contact Jimmy immediately.
Jimmy didn’t return his call until evening. Upon learning that Rex was asking for Nolan’s contact info, he replied, “I don’t have Nolan’s contact.”
“Really? Didn’t you have a meal with my old man and the others before? Didn’t you exchange contact info at the time?”
Jimmy answered, “No.”
Rex didn’t quite believe it and couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure? Or did my old man tell you something?”
“I’m sure,” Jimmy replied, unsure why Rex was asking this. “Though I had a meal with Nolan, we aren’t close, and I don’t think he sees me as anything more than a stranger. He’s not someone who takes care of juniors actively. He’s rather indifferent, actually.”
After hearing this, Rex believed Jimmy genuinely didn’t have Nolan’s contact.
Jimmy then asked, “Why do you want Nan’s contact?”
“To discuss something with him.”
Rex’s words had hinted that he had asked Reed for Nolan’s contact before, but Reed refused, even blocking others from giving it to him.
Jimmy suddenly realized, “Is it because Miss Brown and Johnny had a falling out?”
Rex paused for a moment. “Was it that obvious?”
Jimmy remained silent.
Previously, Rex had mentioned that Maggie and Johnny might have a romantic relationship, and that Maggie targeted Julia because she was so outstanding, fearing that Johnny might be taken away by her.
Rex had also mentioned that Julia had met Nolan before and wanted to become his student, but Nolan turned her down because she wasn’t capable enough.
Maggie was already a student of Nolan, and her achievements in the AI field needed no further explanation. Professionally, Maggie was definitely more accomplished than Julia.
Although one woman’s jealousy or resentment towards another couldn’t be entirely determined by their achievements in work or expertise…
Based on what he knew about Maggie, he didn’t think she was the type to be driven by jealousy, as Rex had suggested. noveldrama
Last Christmas, they had run into Julia, and from their expressions when they saw each other, it was clear that there was some discord between them.
Rex didn’t know what caused the rift, but it probably wasn’t because of Johnny…
Moreover, he felt that Johnny’s attitude toward Julia was also a bit strange.
Even though Maggie was his junior sister, if the issue between Maggie and Julia was just a minor grudge, he wouldn’t unconditionally support Maggie when it came to professional matters…
