Chapter 143 Intercepting Kent Barton’s Conspiracy
After Kent Barton sent the video to thergest media outlet in Horington, all he had to do was wait for
the other party to write the article. He even provided numerous details he wanted to be written down.
After waiting for half an hour, he remembered that Annalise Barton was intending to hold a
shareholders’ meeting and could not sit still any longer, rushing towards thepany.
While on the way there, the media station sent over the sensational article they had written. He parked
his car by the roadside and looked through the articles he had received. He read through it in a serious
manner and memorized the spots where he found itcking in scandalousness.
After that, he contacted the media and ask them to write it in an even more sensational and scandalous
manner, portraying Annalise Barton as a greater menace. In addition, emphasis should be ced on
his contributions to thepany over the The media station immediately made changes following his
instructions years. When he arrived at thepany, Kent happened to see Julian Parks and Annalise
Barton leaving in a car.
When their cars passed each other by, Annalise had clearly seen him. However, she only gave him an
indifferent and distant look before leaving without even greeting him. Kent’s expression darkened as he
got out of his car.
Upon getting off, two minor shareholders andpany executives immediately came forward to greet
him. “Mr. Barton, how are you feeling?” “Mr. Barton, what’s going on?”
“Mr. Barton, why did Mrs. Barton suddenly take over thepany?” “Mr. Barton, are you really
nning to let Annalise manage thepany in the future? She’s just a country hick. What does she
know about management?”
Kent walked towards the Moonlight Group’s building with a sullen expression, and the group of
executives followed behind him. Kent walked into the office and asked, “Did Annalise hold a meeting
with everyone? What did she say?”
“She said that she owns 70% of thepany’s shares and will hire professional managers to manage
thepany. She also hired Zander Hayes as thepany’s legal adviser. Furthermore, she said that
Moonlight Group will be working together with Parks Group.”
Kent replied unhappily, “Of course, Moonlight Group will naturally be cooperating with Parks Group, but
it’s not the type of cooperation she mentioned. It’s a joint cooperation with my son-inw instead.”

He suddenly understood why Julian and Annalise had rushed back to force his signature. They actually
wanted to use the Moonlight Group as a tform to help Julian Parks distribute his clothes!
He would never agree to this. He hurried to the elevator and rushed to the president’s office. The group
of executives followed behind him. One by one, they reported the situation in the conference room to
him.
After reaching the president’s office, Kent immediately squatted in the corner, turned the knob on the
safe, and opened it to check. Upon seeing that thepany’s legal and administrative stamps were all
in the safe, his hard expression softened a little. He looked up again and saw that the contract manager
was also there. He asked, “Do you have thepany contract with you?”
“Yes.” The contract manager immediately expressed his loyalty. “President, don’t worry. I will definitely
manage the contract seal well. All contracts must go through the approval process ording to the
Kent narrowed his eyes and thought to himself. Although he had signed the equity agreement and
Annalise had obtained 70% of thepany’s shares, once public opinion blows up, Annalise would
definitely be unable to manage thepany well. After that happens, the collective pressure would
force her to beg him toe back and regain his title.
Coincidentally, the media station called him at this moment, telling him that a new version had been
sent and that his opinion was requested. As this was an important matter, Kent immediately dismissed
everyone. He sat alone in hisrge office chair and read through the article sent by the media
company.
This time around, he was very satisfied with the changes. As expected of one working in the media.
The writing was good, the story could bring about emotions, and it was sensational. He immediately
called the other party and asked them to publish it at once.
The media station was also very excited and expressed that they could not wait. While driving, Julian
asked Annalise with a smile on his face, “Where should we go?” Annalise looked at the time and said,
“Why don’t we go for dinner?” It was already past five in the afternoon.
After saying that, she giggled. “Why do I have the feeling like there’s nothing on my schedule except
eating?” Julian tilted his head and nced at Annalise. He raised his eyebrows slightly, saying, “Nope,
there are many things you can do besides eating. For example…”
The car screeched to a halt by the side of the road, and he reached out to pull her neck towards him,
and kiss her on the lips. The unexpected deep kiss made Annalise blush and her heart race.
Julian gently let go of Annalise and pressed his forehead against hers. He looked at her affectionately
and said in a slightly hoarse voice, “What about now? Do you see all the other things you can do
besides eating?” When Annalise looked into Julian’s eyes, her heart began to beat even faster.
Aftar raaching tha prasidant’s offica, Kant immadiataly squattad in tha cornar, turnad tha knob on tha

Tha madia station was also vary axcitad and axprassad that thay could not wait. Wh driving, Julian

“Why don’t wa go for dinnar?” It was alraady past fiva in tha aftarnoon.
Aftar saying that, sha gigd. “Why do I hava tha faaling lika thara’s nothing on my schad axcapt

Why were pictures of him pouncing on her appearing in her mind right now? “Mmm…” In the next
moment, his kisses once again swept over her. Immediately after, she felt the seat behind her slowly
leaning down, and her body naturally fell along with it. Annalise fell into silence.
Luxury cars indeed live up to their name as luxuries. It was far morefortable than her 30-thousand-
dor car. Julian Parks was indeed about to make his next move. In the past, Annalise had found it
inconceivable when she heard about car sex. Why in the car? Would it befortable in such a small
space?
At this very moment, she felt as if her heart was about to leap out of her throat. She was surprised that
she wasn’t that against it. In fact, she was even beginning to look forward to it. It turns out that as long
as it was the person you truly loved, no matter where they were, she would dly endure it.
His kissnded again, soft and warm… and after that, it was like a storm. She felt weak all over, her
entire body at his mercy. Just when the following events seemed as if they were about to ur, his cell
phone rang. “You… should pick it up.” Annalise whispered shyly.
Her face waspletely flushed. She suddenly realized how shameful her current position was. Julian
ced one hand around her, not wanting to answer the call. However, the phone rang persistently, so
he had no choice but to pick it up. The party on the other side reported, “Boss, your predictions had
indeede true.” “What?” Julian asked.
The other party continued to report, “Someone is publishing an article about Annalise Barton. I
intercepted it. Take a look. There are videos and texts. We’re awaiting your instructions.” Upon hearing
this, Julian’s aura turned frosty.
Sensing Julian’s displeasure, Annalise immediately sat up and asked, “What’s wrong?” “Kent Barton is
courting death!” Julian answered. “What did he do?” Annalise was surprised. “He really did record a
video.” Julian showed Annalise the video sent by his subordinate.
Annalise saw that in the video, Kent was extremely weak. Instead, it was they who were aggressively
pressuring Kent into signing the agreement. Annalise finished watching the video and looked at what
was written. She saw the sensational and emotion-inducing article.
The contents of the report were very simr to what Kent had said to her in the Duke Horington
Mansion’s dining room. In the report, it was stated that Kent had originally started the business with
Heather Barton…
