Chapter 145 Chloe Rosely âWho warned you? Annalise Barton?â Kentâs eyes narrowed. Was Julian Parks so powerful and influential? To the extent that he could even interfere with Horingtonâs media?
The media staff said helplessly, âSigh, I donât even know. Our internet has been hacked, and itâs completely paralyzed, and weâve also lost a lot of data. Sigh, Mr. Barton, weâve been old friends for many years now. Iâll give it to you straight. Although Iâve never met your niece, judging from her aura in the photo, she doesnât seem like someone easy to mess with. And now that thereâs someone helping her, I donât think anyone will dare to write about her anymore.â
As someone working in the media for so many years, he had always been the one threatening others with their dirt on hand. Today was the first time he had been threatened! And when he thought back to the contents of the threat, he felt a lingering fear, and his back was drenched in a cold sweat.
He truly didnât know how his opponent was, or how they had managed to find out such a secret. This media company wasnât originally his. The former chairman suddenly died of a heart attack, and he had bought this company over from the former chairmanâs wife.
Originally, he and the former chairman were considered friends. After all, they were both working in media, and they would even go to each otherâs houses for meals from time to time. They were considerably close.
When the former chairman fell ill, he immediately went to visit him. On the day of his visit, he found the former chairmanâs ward missing its nurse. With the former chairmanâs only family member being his wife, and as the chairmanâs wife had gone to the washroom, the former chairmanâs illness acting up again had caused him to look towards him pleadingly. asking him to call for a doctor. His first reaction had been to immediately press the service bell.
However, upon seeing the former chairmanâs pupils suddenly dilate, he was blinded by greed. He did not press the service bell and watched helplessly as the former chairman choked to death.
Later, when the former chairmanâs wife left the washroom, he immediately pretended and started shouting, âMr. Bay! Whatâs wrong? Whatâs wrong? Donât scare me. Hurry! Doctor! Nurseâ¦â He shouted incoherently, pretending to be anxious. This matter was very secretive. How did someone find out?
Who was threatening him?
At that time, he saw a line of words suddenly appear on his personal computer, âIf you donât want others to find out, you shouldnât have done it. If you donât want the fact that you left Mr. Bay in the lurch to be made public, behave yourself.â
He was so scared that he didnât dare to move. In order to show his sincerity, he immediately typed on the keyboard and replied with two words: âYes, yes!â
When Kent heard the person in charge of the media station say that Annalise Barton was not to be messed with, he cursed at him for being useless and immediately hung up. To not even dare to publish a single article online. What was the use of contacting such a person? He immediately began to contact the other media outlets.
As soon as the other media companies received his call, they politely called him Mr. Barton, saying that they were ready for any of his orders.
However, as soon as they heard him talk about exposing Annalise Barton, the other parties immediately rejected him with a variety of excuses. âAh, Mr. Barton, our paper is out of stock this week.â âMr. Barton, weâre closed for the week.â âMr. Barton, Iâm sorry. My wife just gave birth, so our official media page will only be reporting on my child this week.â
âMr. Barton, my cat has given birth to three kittens. Theyâre very cute. Nowadays, our young readers are fascinated by stuff like this. Weâre doing a cat special this week.â Kent felt like his heart was about to give out. What the hell is this? No paper? Thereâs no longer any need for physical newspapers nowadays, so what the heck do they need paper for? The one focusing on kittens being born was even more outrageous. Kent was a smart person. He understood that Julian had already given his warning.
Kentâs eyes narrowed. He had never expected that Julian would be so powerful before today. He had thought that he was simply the young master of Jadeboroughâs Parks family and that his status was somewhat higher.
He did not expect Julian to be this powerful. He wondered if Alexander Parks was able to wrestle with him. He regretted it. If he had known that Julian Parks was this powerful, he would have asked Abbie to marry him no matter what! Sigh! What a shame!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Public opinion could no longer be used. He could only resort to his final plan and empty out the Moonlight Group. Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance. He had set up a company three years ago. It was registered and operated independently under his name.
In the past few years, with the company operating in a good manner, he would occasionally share some orders from the Moonlight Group with his new company. It was equivalent to the new company acting as a branch office for the Moonlight Group. And now, it was the perfect time for his company to be put to good use.
Most of Moonlight Groupâs clients were his old customers. When the time came, all he had to do was to make it clear to them that the Moonlight Group had been replaced and that he was managing the new company, EterStrength Company.

Most of Moonlight Groupâs cliants wara his old customars. Whan tha tima cama, all ha had to do was to maka it claar to tham that tha Moonlight Group had baan raplacad and that ha was managing tha naw company, EtarStrangth Company.
As long as he put in a good word for himself in front of the customers and kicked Annalise down, the customers would naturally make the right decision. Since they had worked so happily with him, they would naturally pick him. How could they possibly choose Annalise Barton?
âSigh.â In the end, he was still unwilling to lose. He sighed again and parked his car in front of his villa.
The next day. Chloeâs friend, Claire Rosely, had arrived. Claire Roselyâs name sounded exceptionally gentle. However, her image was the complete opposite of her name.
She had thick wavy hair, fiery red lips, professional attire, high heels, and a folder in hand. Her figure was tall and upright, and her walking speed was extremely fast, giving off the feeling of a skeleton demoness.
As soon as she entered the Moonlight Group, she started taking attendance. âMs. Hish Blue from the front desk, please work more diligently. This will determine whether or not you can continue to stay in the company in the future. The company Iâm managing will definitely not continue to support idle hands.â With that said, she led Annalise and her husband into the elevator.
She walked in front and directly entered the presidentâs office. She introduced herself to the secretary, âClaire Rosely, Executive CEO of the Moonlight Group. After this, we will officially start working together. I hope we have a good working relationship!â Her meaning was that it was fine even if their relationship was unpleasant. She would simply fire them.
The secretary immediately looked towards Annalise. Seeing Annalise nod, she immediately smiled and shook hands with Claire respectfully and politely, âYes, Ms. Rosely.â Claireâs aura was powerful and dignified, giving off an oppressive feeling.
The secretary could not help but become respectful. Claire looked at Annalise and smiled playfully.
âYou can go and enjoy your honeymoon in peace.â Annalise had originally wanted to accompany Claire as she took over. Julian grabbed Annaliseâs hand and said to Claire, âThank you!â With that, he pulled Annalise away.
A woman with such a clear and powerful aura was definitely more than enough to manage the Moonlight Group. Moreover, even if there were difficulties, he could simply send more people over to help manage it in the future. In the elevator, he said, âDonât worry. Sheâll be good at management.â
Annalise smiled and said, âIâm not worried about her management ability. I just feel that itâs impolite for us to leave as soon as she arrives.â âIt doesnât matter. Sheâll understand us.â Julian also smiled. It turned out that she was actually thinking about being polite.
