Chapter 133 Julian Parks Protecting Wife

“If I were willing to wait, I wouldn’t have come to you now,” Annalise Barton said. Kent Barton was absolutely furious when he saw how stubborn Annalise was. If not for the fact that Julian Parks was present, he really wanted to give Annalise a vicious scolding.

For a woman who grew up in the countryside, Annalise had quite a big appetite and ambition. She asked for 70% of Moonlight Group’s shares right away. Did she really treat him as a worker? “Uncle Kent, do you have any other questions?” Julian asked casually when he saw that Kent was silent. His voice was not loud, but it gave Kent an invisible pressure.

“Julian, it’s like this. The Moonlight Group’s situation is a little special. Back then, when Heather asked me to manage the company, the company still had two other minor shareholders. I’m afraid the two minor shareholders won’t agree to me transferring 70% of the shares to Annalise. After all, the Moonlight Group is operating normally now. The profits have increased over the years. No one wants any changes.” Kent concocted a very lame excuse.

Julian said calmly, “Uncle Kent, you don’t have to consider the thoughts of the minor shareholders. You just have to consider the ownership of the shares. After all, personal emotions are not above the law.”

Kent hated Annalise even more when he saw Julian using the law to pressure him without any emotion. This bitch was really a rat shit. She made people feel uncomfortable everywhere.

She was a jinx, right? She could jinx the people around her in various ways, but she herself was very fortunate. She had jinxed her mother, Heather Barton, to death when she was young. Now, she wanted to jinx his wealth? “Uncle Kent, are you planning to usurp the shares my mother-in-law left for Annalise?” Julian raised his eyes slightly and looked at Kent.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Kent looked uncomfortable and immediately explained, “Of course not. Why would I take Anna’s belongings?” “Can Uncle Kent transfer the shares to Annalise now?” Julian asked. Coincidentally, the secretary brought the fruit platter over. Kent looked as if he had been granted a reprieve. He immediately gestured and said, “Julian, Anna. Come, have some fruit first.”

“Alright. We’ll eat some fruit. When the lawyer comes, you can sign the documents,” Julian said calmly. Julian emphasized the word ‘Sign.’ Kent was downright furious. It was as if a ball of fire was burning in his lungs, almost burning his entire lung lobe to the point of exploding. Annalise wanted to laugh when she saw Julian’s indifferent expression. He looked really cool like this. The way he looked when he acted in such a protective manner was simply too dashing.

She knew that Uncle Kent did not want to give her the shares. If Julian did not pressure Uncle Kent, she planned to find a lawyer to file a lawsuit, approach the media to report this matter, and use public opinion and the law to apply twofold pressure on Uncle Kent. Now that Julian was here, she was willing to let him handle the matter.

Annalise was thinking for him, strategizing for him, and trying her best to make use of her advantages. Julian was thinking for her and putting pressure on Uncle Kent to help her get the shares. This feeling of mutual support made her feel happy and fulfilled.

There was another knock on the door. The lawyer came over with an apologetic look on his face. “Ms. Barton. Sorry, I’m late. There was a bit of traffic jam on the way.” He was Heather Barton’s lawyer, Zander Hayes.

“It doesn’t matter. Uncle Kent hasn’t agreed to sign it yet. Mr. Hayes, if Uncle Kent isn’t willing to sign it, I can sue him, right?” Annalise asked Zander. Of course, she knew that she could sue. She had said it on purpose for Uncle Kent to hear, hoping that he would be sensible enough to sign the document at once. After all, he couldn’t get the shares simply by dragging out the signing procedure.

“Yes, you can sue!” Zander said, “When Ms. Heather Barton asked me to prepare her will back then, in order to ensure the validity of the will, we made a tripartite notarization at the notary office. Your uncle also clearly stated that he was only managing the Moonlight Group on your mother’s behalf. When you turn 20, he will transfer 70% of the shares to your name.” “Did you bring the transfer agreement?” Annalise asked. “Yes, I did,” Zander said as he handed the agreement to Annalise.

Julian took the agreement from Annalise’s hand directly. He stood up and walked haughtily to the front of Kent. He handed the agreement to him. “Uncle Kent, take a look at the agreement. If there are no problems, you can sign it.” Kent couldn’t utter a word. He was really cursing and swearing in his heart.

He frowned, and a look of displeasure flashed across his eyes, but he did not dare to show it in front of Julian. He could only take the agreement and say with a smile, “Okay, I’ll read it. I’ll deal with the urgent work first.”

Julian said calmly. “Uncle Kent, don’t be in a hurry to deal with the matters at work. After signing, the decision-making matters will be Annalise’s work.” Julian hadn’t been so pissed off in a long time. Kent had refused to sign in front of him, using the excuse of work to delay. If Annie came alone, how badly would he bully her?

Over the years, when Julian had been managing the Parks Group, he usually wouldn’t lose his temper when he met all kinds of clients who outwardly agreed with him but secretly opposed him. However, Kent Barton had made him very displeased now.

He could tolerate people bullying him or challenging him, but he could not tolerate people bullying his wife. “Julian, if I don’t deal with this work immediately, it will affect the development of the Moonlight Group…” Kent didn’t get to finish his sentence.

He was interrupted by Julian. “In the future, the Moonlight Group’s development will be managed by Annalise. I will personally act as a safeguard over Annalise’s management. Uncle Kent only needs to

take the dividends from your shares. Of course, if Uncle Kent is worried that Annalise will not manage the company well and affect Uncle Kent’s interests, you can consider selling the shares in your hands.

“Uncle Kent, you do not have to worry that the shares are too expensive and no one can afford them. I can directly buy the shares in Uncle Kent’s hands. “Cash settlement!” He said the phrase ‘Cash settlement’ in an extremely tyrannical manner. Yes, Julian had this much confidence and boldness.

Even if Kent Barton owned all the shares in the Moonlight Group, Julian could still afford to buy all the shares off his hand, let alone less than 30% of the Moonlight Group shares. Looking at Julian’s demeanor, Annalise was almost infatuated. His every move was noble, domineering, calm, and confident. The charm he exuded made her look up to him. She thought to herself she had to be more outstanding! Seeing that Julian was angry, Kent knew it was not easy to bluff his way through.

However, it was impossible for him to sign the equity agreement directly. He had been managing the company for nearly 20 years. How could he let Annalise Barton, a woman who grew up in the countryside, reap the fruits?

He said, “Julian, how about this? We’ll hold a shareholders’ meeting tomorrow afternoon and make everything clear at the shareholders’ meeting. If no one has any objections and there’s no problem with the agreement, I’ll sign it and change whatever needs to be changed.” How could he change? He just wanted to stall for time and ask Annalise out in private to brainwash her.

“Let’s hold the shareholders’ meeting now,” Julian said calmly. How could he let Kent lead him by the nose? There was no point in stalling for time. “There’s a minor shareholder living in the countryside. He lives far away and can’t rush over now,” said Kent. Julian barked out, “Two in the afternoon!”
