Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 161 All For Nothing

Bethany did not dare to say that Kent was throwing a tantrum in the study. She smiled and said tactfully. “You’re

back? It’s time to eat. If there’s anything, we can discuss it after dinner.”

Abigail looked at Alexander, waiting for his reply with her eyes.

“Okay,” Alexander replied.

Indeed, she had not been eating well for the past few days.

“Take a seat first. We’ll eat soon. I’ll call your father. He’s busy in the study.” Bethany said with a smile and went

upstairs.

She had to remind Kent not to lose his temper in front of Alexander.

Bethany went to the study to tell Kent that Alexander and Abbie were back.

“Okay,” Kent replied with a relaxed expression.

Alexander was back. He could not lose his patience.

Bethany was afraid that Kent might lose control, so she reminded him softly, “Kent, I know you’re in a bad mood.

Bear with it. Don’t lose your temper in front of your son-in-law.”

“Do I need you to teach me what to do?” Kent rebuked again.

Bethany was speechless. She was pissed!

Everyone sat at the dining table to eat.

There were more than ten dishes. All of them were meat.

The nanny’s culinary skills were superb. The dishes she made had amazing visuals and were delicious. However, the

atmosphere at the table was somewhat tense.

Initially, the atmosphere was quite good. No matter how unhappy Kent was, he did not show it. He very warmly

asked Alexander to eat more food.

Later, Abigail mentioned the distribution. She even said she talked about it on the phone previously. She asked if

Kent had a specific distribution plan.

Kent immediately lost the mood to eat. He even put down his cutleries.

70% of the shares had been taken away by Annalise. How could they distribute it?

In the afternoon, his subordinates reported that the new executive president, Claire, had already held a meeting

and asked everyone to prepare a plan to help the Parks Group in Jadeborough to distribute their garments.

In other words, Moonlight Group could not help Alexander distribute their garments. Instead, they had to work for

Julian.

Moonlight Group’s administrative, legal, and contract seals were locked in the safe. He thought about it for a while.

Whether it was Annalise or the new executive president, none of them could sign the contract or change the

business information.

Unexpectedly, the first thing the new executive president did after taking office was publish a statement and file a

record with the Public Security Bureau. All the previous public seals were invalidated because they were claimed

lost. She even got new seals and filed a record with the Public Security Bureau.

She didn’t even greet him or ask if he was willing to give them the official seal.

Claire was simply looking down on him.

At the thought of these things, his heart felt suffocated. He felt like he was about to have a heart attack. “Dad, why

aren’t you eating? Is the distribution plan not ready yet? We have to hurry,” Abigail said.

She had been busy outside for the past two days and did not know that Moonlight Group had been taken

over

Kent looked at Abigail with a complicated gaze and said, “Annalise and Mr. Hayes took back the shares her mother

left her.”

“What? She took back the shares? When did this happen?” Abigail was shocked.

The day you guys come back,” said Kent.

Annalise and Julian came back one day before them. They forced Kent to sign the agreement the next day and took

the shares.

“You signed it?” Abigail was incredulous.

“Yes,” Kent replied.

What else could he do if he didn’t sign it? He dared not offend Julian.

Abigail was so angry that he couldn’t help but raise his voice. “Dad, how can you sign such an important agreement

at such a critical moment? If you sign it, Annalise becomes a major shareholder. How can she help us distribute

garments? Dad, you must be out of your mind. Didn’t we agree before that no matter what, we have to stall for

time? Even if she can win the lawsuit, won’t it take some time? We can do a lot of things during this period of time.”

“Stop it.” Kent was furious.

He said, “I have other companies under my name. My new company will be in charge of distributing Alexander’s

garments.”

Abigail was delighted. She immediately asked, “How much can you help distribute?”

Kent said, “Let’s see how it goes. There should be a few hundred thousand revenues in a month.”

Alexander kept quiet. A few hundred thousand revenues in a month? Not to mention they were just revenues, not

profit. They could not even compare to a slightly larger mall. What was the use?

Abigail also knew that the distribution effort was too low. She dared not speak and could only bury her head in her

food and eat silently.

Alexander’s phone rang.

Tony called. As soon as the call went through, Tony asked, “I heard you went to Horington?”

“Yes,” Alexander replied.

“Why did you go to Horington?” Tony sounded a little dissatisfied. “Alexander, the most important thing now. is to

think of a way to increase sales. Your mother and I won the market here. The assistant will send the order to you

after sorting it out. You must supervise the production and control the quality.”

“Okay, Dad. How many orders do we have?” Alexander asked hopefully.

Tony sighed and said, “There aren’t many orders, less than 15 million dollars. The people here had adapted to the

culture here. So, most of them don’t wear domestically designed and produced garments.”

“Okay,” Alexander replied.

Tony asked again, “Why did you go to Horington?”

Alexander did not hide anything. He said honestly, “Dad, I saw Julian and Annalise coming to Horington. I suspect

that they are going to meet Joseph. Annalise might know Joseph, so I followed them all the way. But too bad I lost

them.”

Tony said, “There’s no need to follow them. I have news regarding Joseph.”

He called to tell his son about this.

“You have news? Where is he secretly living?” Alexander asked.

Tony said, “I don’t know, but he will personally attend next month’s Medical Conference.”

Alexander kept quiet.

He cursed in his heart.

Why did he spend so much time and energy following Julian and even lose him in the end?

If he had known that Joseph would attend the Medical Conference, he would have just waited. He should have spent

the past two days optimizing the sales of garments.

Not only did they waste two days, but they also watched helplessly as Julian and his wife acted lovey-dovey. They

could have gained tons of fans on their official Twitter account and even boosted their sales.

Feeling suffocated, he asked his assistant to book a flight back to Jadeborough that night.

He didn’t even book a plane ticket for Abigail.

Previously, he had thought that Moonlight Group could help with the distribution. Abigail could somewhat come in

handy.

Now, he was disgusted by Abigail.

Thinking back, Abigail was really useless.

Abigail was speechless when she learned that Alexander had only booked his own plane ticket.

She did not follow him. She wanted to stay at home for another night and go back tomorrow. After all, they had

already gotten their marriage certificate. Alexander could forget about getting rid of her.
