Offer To The CEO

219 Recovery and Revenge - Part 14

Friday, continued …

"So, you are certain that the signature is not your signature?" came the question from Officer Mu.

"Officer Mu, I know that you are only asking the question because you need to, but do you think I would have gone to the extent that I had to overturn the orders if it was my signature.Think about it."

"Apologies Madam Hou.Someone is going to ask that question at some stage.I might as well ask it now, in a much friendly environment, than someone asking you who is out to get you."

Anna realised that she was finally starting to feel the effects of sitting up as she was and knew that she soon needed to lay down.Hou Yi having turned to look at Anna noticed that she was starting to feel exhausted with talking.

He turned back to Officer Mu and Alister Nang and could see that they wanted to keep talking about matters.He knew for his wife he needed to take action now."Gentlemen, I hate to interrupt what we are talking about, but this if the first time that my wife has been out of bed since this happened.I am going to have to ask you to leave.Officer Mu, you know how you can get in contact with us.Alister, I will be in the office for at least part of the days, so call me and we can always arrange for meetings there.I need you to keep me up to date with what is happening."

By the time Hou Yi finished speaking, Anna\'s head had fallen onto his shoulder.Both Officer Mu and Alister Ning observed this and recognied that they needed to leave.Alister, indicated "Sir, I will let the nursing staff know that you need their assistance."They both stood up and exited the room quietly.

Hou Yi, simply sat there with Anna resting on his shoulder, half asleep.Just realising how much she trusted him to do that, was a balm for Hou Yi.He hated that he was breaching that trust be keeping the secret of his legal takedown of Lu Corporation, but the he wanted her to be as stress free as possible.

Before either of them could act any further, three nurses entered the room, and so Hou Yi gently shook Anna to wake her up.Once responded "Madam Hou, we need to get you back into bed.You have exhausted yourself out, and we need to make sure before you are discharged that you are able to cope."

The nursing staff spend 15 minutes getting Anna, back into bed and comfortable.Hou Yi walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.He and Anna simply stared into each other\'s eyes before Anna commenced moving her head towards Hou Yi, who leaned in for another kiss.

The nurse who remained in the room, let them kiss for a few seconds, before loudly clearing her throat and saying "CEO Hou, Madam Hou, I am going to have to interrupt you.Given how tired Madam Hou is, CEO Hou, we are going to ask you to leave for some time, not only to allow Madam Hou to get a little bit more rest, but she has to go for a number of tests.The doctors have indicated that they would like to talk to both of you around 4pm this afternoon."

With this the nurse turned and left the room realising that Anna and Hou Yi had to make a decision themselves, and she shut the door behind her.

Hou Yi pulled back from Anna and heard what was said and started to move back towards the couch.Before he could sit down, Anna turned and said "Do not sit down Yi.You have agreed that for my own sanity I need you to spend part of the day in the office.Hou Enterprises needs you, and despite the help your father and Uncle Feng can give you there are only things you can do."

"Plus, I want to you see what you can do from a business perspective to make it as difficult as possible for Lu Corporation, and the Lu\'s in particular.While I feel sorry for their employees I want to stop them using their company from getting out of the trouble that is headed their way."

Hou Yi looked at his wife and realized how serious she was.All he wanted to do at the moment was make her happy, so he turned to Anna and said, in a somewhat exasperated voice "Fine, I will go, but I will be back around 3pm."

As he went to leave Hou Yi leaned over on his way out and gently kissed Anna on the lips and headed out the door.As he left, he thought, how similar his wife\'s ideas were to his.The only thing was, he really did not care as much as his wife for hurt Lu Corporation\'s employees, as he wants to prevent the Lu\'s from using their company again to hurt anyone, and he was going to be the person to do this.
