Offer to the CEO - 511 Getting ready for our wedding

Friday, continued…

Once the staff at Fengs started to show Anna options for jewellery for everyone she realised that she was getting overwhelmed with the choices. Earrings, necklaces, bracelets all just seemed to blend into each other, both in terms of their style and in terms of what was in them. Hou Yi simply sat beside Anna, watching her look at the options for the gifts for the women.

It took Assistant Manager Wong twenty minutes to have the courage to interrupt Anna, who he could see was more and more confused, but watched by an indulgent Hou YI, who had arranged with a watch for the male adult members of the wedding party. He had, as he knew the boys were cricket mad arranged for a corporate box for them for a game over the summer at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

“Madam Hou, I remember the pendant that CEO Hou selected for you when you came in and purchased your wedding bands. We have several ordinary diamond pendants, smaller of course, but otherwise identical. How about that for all the females?”

Anna looked at Hou Yi who while nodding said “Anna that seems a good idea. Simple, and for your family not too much in their face. And they are set in …?”

“CEO Hou, we have them set in both platinum and gold, and all we need to do is place them on chains. As I understand that Madam Hou is looking for them as gifts for your wedding party, how about those for the adults are set in platinum and for the girls in gold?”

Hou Yi nodded and said, “If that is what my wife wants, it sounds appropriate.”

Anna, nodded before saying “Yi, given Georgina has agreed to become our housekeeper on the farm, and you know how much I hate her ex and his new wife, could we buy a small welcome gift for Georgina and Alice, particularly as she has offered to keep my mother under control during the wedding.”

“Whatever you want to buy is fine by me. That reminds me, the guards keeping an eye on your family and the property have indicated that Georgina’s ex and his second wife are causing difficulties. They suspect that they will cause a scene next weekend, and have not only alerted the police given what happened in Honk Kong but arranged for additional security for the ceremony and generally around us.”

Anna leaned over and gave Hou Yi a brief kiss. She knew it had taken a lot for Georgina not only to apologise for her previous behaviour but to go against Sally and her ex given the constant threats to seek custody of Alice.

“At least Georgina has learnt her lesson and wanted to apologise for her behaviour. I can forgive her because according to James what she told me in Hong Kong is true. She had been trying to contact me through her sister Fiona who is studying with James. Sally however was always the worst influence on behaviour around her. Her parents owned a successful small business and though that made her superior to everyone. I just hope she does not try and ruin the day.”

“Anna, I will not let that happen. This is our wedding ceremony and I will do everything to ensure that it is perfect for you.”

Soon afterwards Anna finished selecting the items that they needed, and it was arranged for everything to be delivered to their apartment. Quietly Hou Yi made sure that Assistant Manager Wong added the special piece he had ordered for Anna to be sent with the other items. He knew that she hated flashy jewellery, but he hoped this would not happen with this piece, it had been designed to fit Anna’s simple tastes.
