Chapter 138 Kent Barton So Incensed That He Vomited Blood
Annalise Barton ignored Kent Barton and left with Julian Parks. Julian asked Annalise with concern,
“Did he yell at you?” “No.” Annalise looked at Julian Parks’s concerned expression, and her pounding
heart felt warm. “Did he say something nasty?” Julian asked again.
“Again, no.” Annalise looked at Julian and shook her head with a smile. She couldn’t be bothered at all
by what people she didn’t care for said. A concerned look from the person she cared about was
enough to satisfy her. Seeing that Julian’s expression had softened, Annalise could not help but ask
with concern, “Have you finished eating?”
“I’ve finished my meal. Did you not eat well? I’ll take you somewhere else to eat,” Julian said as he led
Annalise to the parking lot. “I ate very well, and now, I am full.” Annalise smiled and patted her tummy.
She would never let herself suffer, so she didn’t hold back at all when eating with Kent.
Seeing Annalise patting her tummy, Julian stopped in his tracks and looked at her with a doting smile.
“It’s good that you’re full.” He couldn’t resist extending his hand and patting her tummy. Under the
sunlight, they looked at each other and smiled. Julian doted on her, and Annalise was charming.
He reached out again and stroked her head. In Annalise’s world, Julian always had a gentle smile on
his lips. The two of them prepared to walk to the office of the Moonlight Group. They chatted while their
food was being digested.
Looking from afar, Julian appeared handsome and elegant. He was dressed in a business suit and had
a noble air. His smile was warm, like a gust of spring breeze. Annalise was young and beautiful, witty
and astute, and she had a dazzling smile.
Julian walked forward while Annalise walked backward. They talked andughed. He tugged at her
from time to time, afraid she would trip over the tree behind her. It was two in the afternoon.
Julian and Annalise arrived at the building of the Moonlight Group on time. The President’s office was
closed. The secretary informed Annalise that Kent was not in. Annalise knew that she had been tricked.
Her face darkened slightly, and she immediately called Kent’s number.
Initially, she thought that Kent would not answer her call. To her surprise, Kent answered after two
rings. He sounded very weak. “Anna, I was about to call you. I’m sorry. My body is weak, and I’m in the
hospital now. We can’t hold the shareholders’ meeting this afternoon anymore.” Annalise asked calmly,
“What happened to you, Uncle Kent?” To avoid signing the agreement, Kent actually pretended to be
sick. He was really shameless.
“Sigh! High blood pressure. My blood pressure just soared to 180. Fortunately, I came to the hospital in
time. The doctor said that if my blood pressure soars too high, there is a risk that my blood vessels will
burst. I may have to stay in the hospital for a few days,” said Kent.
Kent guessed that Julian would not stay in Horington for long. After all, Julian was the person in charge
of Parks Group and was a busy man. How could he have the time to waste on Annalise? When Julian
was gone, Annalise would be at his mercy.
At that point, Kent would suppress his temper and conscientiously persuade her. He would lecture her
on the gains and losses and spend more time and effort brainwashing her. Then, he would give her
some gifts to express his care and love.
For someone like Annalise, who grew up in the countryside and had not seen much of the world, she
would definitely think that Kent was too nice to her if he gave her a bag worth more than 15 thousand
dors.
If she still refused to listen, he would have to take thest step. “Then Uncle Kent, rest well in the
hospital,” Annalise said. Kent was overjoyed when he heard Annalise give in. “Alright, alright. I’ll take
good care of my body…”
However, before he could finish, he heard Annalise say, “High blood pressure is a chronic illness You
need time to recover slowly. Which hospital are you in, Uncle Kent? I’lle and look for you to sign it
later. After signing it, I’ll hold a shareholders’ meeting Uncle Kent, you can just focus on recuperating I’ll
manage thepany well.”
Kent was so angry that he almost vomited blood. His eyes flickered violently for a moment, and he
could not find any words to refute her. He could only pretend to be deaf and mute. “Ah… Anna… What
did you say? Hello, hello… Hello? This signal is too poor… Hello, Anna? Are you still listening…” Then
he hung up. Hmph! Kent didn’t even tell Annalise which hospital he was in. How could Annalise find
him?
Initially, Kent thought Annalise mighte to the hospital to visit him. He could also pretend to be sick
and use this opportunity to repair his rtionship with his niece. Didn’t many pairs of father and child
who had turned against each other end up repairing their rtionship suddenly when the father fell
sick? To his surprise, Annalise was as smelly and hard as a rock in atrine. As Kent thought about it,
his expression turned icy.
In that case, there was no need for him to meet Annalise. As long as he did not meet her, she would
not be able to get him to sign the document. If he did not sign it, Annalise would not be able to get the
shares. If Annalise took the legal route, Kent could use public opinion.
If public opinion couldn’t make Annalise relent, Kent could only execute short-selling on the shares of
the Moonlight Group. Fortunately, he was already prepared to do this..
As he thought about it, Kent sneered andyfortably on the hospital bed, scrolling through his
phone.He would stay in the hospital for half a day and not return to the Barton family’s residence at
night. He would stay in a hotel. If Annalise wanted to find him, she could dream on.

Suddenly Kent felt a little sleepy. He yawned and closed his eyes to sleep. It was better to be rich. The
VIP ward was truly homely andfortable. “Let’s go to the hospital now,” Annalise said. Julian asked,
“Do you know which hospital?”
“I don’t know. I have to check,” Annalise said. She might have to make a trip home to get herputer
to locate Kent Barton. Alternatively, Annalise could call her fourth mentor James Brown for help. James
was a top-notch hacker. No, to be precise, he was a Red Hacker.
His team specialized in protecting the country’s cybersecurity. “I’ll check,” Julian volunteered. Annalise
looked at Julian in surprise. So Julian was also a hacker? “Send me Kent’s number, Julian said.
“Alright.” Annalise immediately sent Kent’s number to Julian.
Julian made a call. “You have one minute to check the location of this phone number. I want the
specific hospital ward number.” Annalise Barton was speechless. She had thought that Julian was also
a hacker and would investigate it himself. So he wasn’t one after all.

However, it was normal. Julian had learned all kinds of skills from a young age. How could he have the
time to learn hacking skills? “What are you thinking?” Julian raised his eyes to look at Annalise.
Annalise smiled and said, “Nothing.” Julian reached out and stroked Annalise’s head.
A minuteter, he received the location of the hospital and the ward number where Kent Barton was
staying. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, “Get in the car. We’ll go to the hospital.”
Kent was all groggy from his sleep when he felt someone shouting “Uncle Kent.” He turned over in
annoyance and thought to himself that even his dream would not let him sleep in peace. “Uncle Kent!”
Annalise shouted again. Then she said, “Get up and sign the document.” Kent became even more
speechless. It was really annoying that he had even dreamed about signing. Signing?
Kent literally had a rude awakening. When he opened his eyes, he saw two figures in front of the bed.
Who else could it be but Annalise and Julian? For a moment, he thought that he was seeing things. He
blinked his eyes hard and looked again. The two of them were still standing in front of his bed like door
gods.
