Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 141 Annalise Barton’s Plan

Of course, he could not ask for more. Thus, he became Moonlight Group’s legal adviser. In the next two years, he rarely fought lawsuits. However, he would win every case that he fought. And it was really because Heather Barton was a most remarkable woman. She was good-natured and tenacious. She would never bully the good, but neither would she back off in the face of the bad. Under her charge, the company grew bigger and stronger.

In reality, it was harder for women to gain a footing in business when compared to men. It was especially so for beautiful women. Even if a woman were the president of the entire Group, there would always be the thoughtless ones who wanted nothing more than to take advantage of her. Or the egomaniacs who looked down on her.

Once they failed to win her heart, she would face all kinds of stigmas and countless defamation. In the two years, he fought nine lawsuits. Only one was related to the company’s operations. The other eight were related to personal injuries and defamation.

Some women accused Heather Barton of being a mistress. They said that Heather Barton slept around with so many men that she did not even know who her daughter’s father was.

Men who failed to win Heather Barton’s heart hurled verbal attacks at Heather Barton, saying she grew her company by sleeping with clients. As her attorney, he could only do his best to help Heather Barton win the lawsuits she faced. However, he did not expect Heather Barton to die in a car accident at such a young age.

He also marveled at how foresighted Heather Barton was. She completed the assets distribution and necessary notarization when her daughter was only one year old.

At the same time, he felt it was reassuring for Heather Barton and her daughter. Fortunately, they had everything notarized. Otherwise, Annalise Barton might have ended up with nothing when she grew up. After Heather Barton’s death, Kent Barton sought him out and told him he could continue to be Moonlight Group’s legal adviser.

Zander Hayes thanked Kent Barton with gratitude. Indeed, he was pretty attached to Moonlight Group and was not ready to leave yet. Kent Barton invited Zander Hayes to dinner, which the latter gladly accepted.

Zander Hayes thought that Kent Barton wanted to discuss work-related notions. Never in his wildest imagination would he expect Kent Barton to ask him to find a way to amend the agreement of the late Heather Barton and transfer all her shares to him.
