Chapter 393 Uncovering My Wife's Secrets
Heather gave Lee a gentle look and replied, "Yes." Lee heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Heather didn't look bad. He said, "I'll bring you back to your room to rest. We'll go back after lunch." "Okay," Heather replied. Sybil immediately smiled and said. "Go, go. Heather, when the weather is better in a few days, let's go shopping. Bring Anna along." "Okay," Heather agreed. Lee brought Heather back to her room.
Heather's expression turned serious. "Kent didn't treat Anna well, right?" "Heather, it's all in the past. Forget that." Lee did not want Heather to be unhappy. Heather suddenly sobered and said grimly, "I want to know! This way, I can know what I should do in the future." "I don't want you to be upset," Lee said. "If you don't tell me, I'll overthink and won't feel good either." Heather was very stubborn. Taking Heather's hand, Lee said, "I'll tell you everything..." Initially, he had planned to wait for Heather to recuperate for a period of time before telling her. Now that she knew, he would not hide it from her. He told Heather everything he knew in detail. He started from when Anna was sent to a distant relative in the countryside by Kent at the age of 6... until Kent wanted to snatch Moonlight Group and Abigail tried to steal Anna's boyfriend...
The more Heather listened, the sullener her expression became. She was burning with anger. She couldn't believe that her daughter was bullied by Kent and his family when she wasn't around. She said, "Anything else? I was absent when my daughter was growing up. I have to know how others bully my daughter." "No. Heather, it's all in the past. It's also a blessing in disguise for Anna. After meeting her mentors, she was doing very well," Lee comforted Heather. Heather was furious. "That was Anna's fortune, but it won't change the fact that Kent is such a jerk. Didn't you get even with him?" Lee said, "I got Moonlight Group back. Also, I got the villa you left for Annalise." Back then, Lee had thought about killing Kent. It was because of Heather that he let him off. After all, he was Heather's younger brother. "Don't leave him a single penny. Let him experience what it means to be helpless and desperate." Heather said with heat, "As expected, a man's heart is incomprehensible." Wasn't Kent pushing her family into a corner? Kent thought that after she died, he would take over her company and bully her daughter.
Fortunately, she had been careful back then and decided in her will that if anything happened to Annalise, she would donate all her assets. Otherwise, who knew if Annalise would be able to grow up alive? Kent and the top Yechiel were of the same batch. Seeing that Heather's face clouded with rage, Lee immediately changed the topic. "Heather, let's not think about the past. It's all in the past. Anna is doing very well now. Our family will get better and better. By the way, Dad and Jolene mean that when we start work, we should invite the media to make your return to the Xander family known to the public..." Heather wasn't uncomfortable in such a situation, so she immediately waved her hand and refused. "No, no. There's no need to invite the media. We, Anna, can just quietly live our lives..." She suddenly paused and changed her mind. With a serious expression, she said, "Alright, let's invite the media to make it public. If possible, invite the media from Horington."
"Thank you, everyone! We're going to work, thank you!" With that, Lee held Heather's hand and turned to block Heather from the reporters. This heartwarming action was immediately captured by the reporters. The reporters wanted to continue the interview, but they were stopped by Lee's men. "Everyone, today's interview is over. Our president and Madam are going to work. Please give them some privacy. Thank you!" As they couldn't interview anymore, the reporters immediately ran towards their cars. They wanted to rush back and distribute the news dispatches as quickly aspossible. Soon, the major media outlets updated the headlines of the day. "The return of Heather Barton, the wife of Lee Xander, the president of Xander Group!"
"Annalise's mother, Heather Barton is back!" "Lee Xander finally saw this coming!" Kent was having a tough time recently. Moonlight Group had been taken over by Annalise. The shares in his hands had been forcefully taken away by Lee. He transferred most of the money in his account to Lee after Annalise's car accident in order to save his own skin. He watched television at home every day to kill the time. People were benefit-oriented. In the past, when the Moonlight Group was thriving under his management, there were people visiting him every day during the holiday. Now, even a dog wouldn't bark when it passed by. He watched the television in boredom and changed channels several times. Just as he was about to change to another one, a piece of news suddenly popped up...
