Chapter 137

Chapter 137 Will Your Biological Uncle Harm You?

When Annalise Barton saw that Kent Barton’s expression had become more unpleasant, she smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter if you are unwilling. Uncle Kent, don’t worry. I will definitely hire a professional manager with outstanding ability. With a professional manager to manage the group, Uncle Kent can also enjoy your old age.”

Kent was dumbfounded. “Annalise Barton, you damn bitch. I’m not even 50 years old this year. What old age are you talking about?” he thought. He really wanted to curse and swear bitterly at Annalise.

However, he had no choice. He still had to find a way to convince her.. He sighed helplessly and said apologetically, “Anna, a lot has happened recently. I know that you’ve suffered. Uncle apologizes to you.

“Abbie is a little willful. When she found out that you and Benjamin were a couple, she shouldn’t have gone close to Benjamin. Then, there wouldn’t have been any enmity between the two of you.

“But Anna, you two are sisters. Your blood ties can never be broken. If I die, Abbie will be the only person you’re related to in this world. You two are sisters. You have to support each other!

“I know that some of the things I said when you married Julian had gone too far, but Anna, those were not Uncle’s true feelings. “Your prejudice against me is too deep. Sigh…

“There’s one more thing I didn’t want to tell you, but… Sigh! I’d better tell you. Anna, do you know why Uncle sent you to the countryside back then?” Annalise raised her eyes to look at Kent.

Why else would he send her to the countryside? To render her lacking in foresight, ignorant and incompetent while staying in the countryside, of course. This way, when she grew up, she would not have the ability to compete with him for the company’s shares.

As for why he didn’t let her die, Annalise had to thank her mother for her foresight. Her mother had included a clause in the equity agreement that if Annalise died, all of Moonlight Group’s equity would be donated to the foundation. Uncle Kent would not get anything. That was why he let her live until now.

Kent tried his best to gather his emotions. He put on a pained look and said, “Your mother died in a car accident when you were three years old. She was in the prime of life. She was so young, and you were so small, yet she abandoned you and went to heaven. “On the day your mother’s ashes were buried, it started to drizzle. You cried so piteously and kept calling for your mother, breaking our hearts.

“Coincidentally, someone was also being buried in another area of the public cemetery. That family hired someone to perform some rites. When the priest heard that you were crying non-stop, he gave you a face-reading. After taking a look at your physiognomy, he said that you had a face of wealth and would attain great achievements in the future.

“We were naturally happy to hear that. Who doesn’t want their loved ones to be successful? “I thanked him profusely and gave him a red packet.

“Later, when the Daoist priest asked for your birth chart, I gave him your birth chart. After making some calculations on your birth chart with his fingers, he lamented that your personality was too tough. Your body was strong, and there’s the Feasting-Star-Subdues-Kill Formation, the Tri-element Layout, and marital misfortunes in life. For a child with this kind of birth chart, it was best to raise her in the countryside. It was better to suffer more hardships and undergo training. The earlier you were sent to the countryside, the better. The more you train, the better your future.

“Who doesn’t want their child to be well? But you were only three years old at that time. How could we bear to do that? We doted on you until you were six years old. Thinking about your fate and the Daoist priest’s instructions, we didn’t sleep well at night. In the end, we sent you to the countryside. “Anna,

don’t blame Uncle. I had no choice but to send you to the countryside. Uncle really wants the best for you.

In order to make these things up, he deliberately spent money to hire a fortune-teller to teach him how to make up this story Annalise almost laughed out loud when she heard such a ridiculous tale. Kent Barton had put in a lot of effort to fool her! It was not easy to memorize these strange technical terms.

Unfortunately, Annalise’s third mentor Cash Cappell had two hobbies other than making pottery. One was growing orchids, and the other was learning the Book of Changes.

Annalise knew that Cash Cappell could read fortunes. When she was young, she would always run after Cash Cappell to ask him what her birth chart was and whether she would be rich in the future.

Annalise could already memorize all the words that her third mentor told her. Her third mentor Cash Cappell had told her that in her fortune, the Ten Constellations had Missing Seal, and she did not have the protection of her parents or she would marry far away. Her Upright Career star preserved wealth, and it was inevitable that she would be rich in the future. Her Time Pillar was aligned with the Feasting Star. Not only was she a foodie, but she would also make her children prosper in the future.

In fact, even if her third mentor did not tell her all this, she would not have believed Kent Barton anyway. How could she forget those scenes where Kent Barton launched vicious verbal attacks on her? “Anna, let’s not talk about the past. Don’t worry. Uncle won’t ask for the shares your mother left for you. However, you’ve just gotten married, and your relationship with Julian isn’t stable yet.

“How about this? Let’s sign a contract in private. Uncle will temporarily keep these shares for you. In three or five years, after you and Julian have survived the period of friction, and your relationship has stabilized, I’ll transfer the shares to you. What do you think? Kent tried to coax and bluff Annalise.

“How about this? Let’s sign a contract in private. Uncle will temporarily keep these shares for you. In three or five years, after you and Julian have survived the period of friction, and your relationship has stabilized, I’ll transfer the shares to you. What do you think? Kent tried to coax and bluff Annalise.

Annalise finished her meal and put down her chopsticks. She raised her eyes to look at Kent and said, “No need. I’ll keep the things my mother left for me.”

“Annalise Barton, you’re simply too pigheaded and stubborn.” Kent could no longer control himself and decided to scold her. Hence, he reprimanded her, “Didn’t you see what happened to those whose brains are full of romantic thoughts? Huh? Among those girls who believed in men wholeheartedly, which one of them ended up well?

“I’m your biological uncle. Why would I harm you? I have managed the Moonlight Group for so many years. Haven’t the profits increased every year? Isn’t it good for you to sit back and receive the dividends?

“You and Julian can just focus on your romantic relationship. Your uncle here will be your backing. Isn’t that good? Huh? “When other girls get married, they think of ways to help their maiden families and earn money for them. But you’ve only been married for a month, yet you can’t wait to empty your maiden family’s coffers.”

Kent’s voice was too loud. Julian had just finished eating next door when he heard Kent’s yelling. Although he did not know what Kent said, he did hear Kent’s yelling. His face darkened suddenly, and he sprang up and rushed next door in big strides. As soon as he rushed over, he stood beside Annalise and glared icily at Kent Barton. “What are you doing, Uncle Kent?* He held Annalise’s hand and looked at her quizzically.

Annalise looked toward Kent and said, “Uncle Kent, hold the shareholders’ meeting at 2 pm sharp and then sign the share transfer agreement. I’ll go to the company first. Enjoy your meal.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Anna, think carefully about Uncle’s words. I might have been a little hasty just now, but it’s all for your own good “Kent did not dare to be rash in front of Julian. Seeing that Annalise was about to leave, he made a last-ditch attempt to persuade her.
