Offer to the CEO - 515 Total Mayhem

Tuesday

While Anna and Hou Yi were having breakfast before finalising things they needed to before their trip to Australia, their pleasant morning was interrupted by the ringing of Hou YI’s mobile. As he picked it up, he noticed the call was form Assistant Wang. The last thing he needed today was a crisis as he already had a heavy workload before their departure to Australia.

Sharply he answered “Yes.”

Having realised how had his boss had been working to have these few days to travel to Australia, Assistant Wang felt guilty for disturbing him. “Apologise sir but the police called here as some of the new charged being laid against Lu Jingho involve crimes against Hou Enterprises as the victim.”

That made Hou Yi pause and said, “Hang on.” With that he placed the mobile on speaker and sat it on the table. “My wife is with me, so I have placed you speaker. What is the news?”

“Sir, the advice from the police is in addition to the charges you already knew about there have been added four charges relating to attempted blackmail of Hou Enterprises. Additionally, the number of s*xual assault and rape of a minor charges now adds up to over three hundred, and there are around two hundred and fifty charges of forced s*xual servitude, and some three hundred corporate charges. More charges are still anticipated.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Hou Yi was simply stunned listening to what was being advised. While he had some suspicion that he would likely face a couple of hundred charges, this was getting into the thousands. No way that he would be able to compensate the victims with respect to all those charges.

The lawyer in Anna, however immediately reacted “What else did they say?”

“Madam Hou, the information we have is limited, but Mr Nang has called asking to speak to you and CEO Hou. I suggested given you departure today, that it would be best to talk to you. I have been able to reach your brother in Australia, and he and Miss Alecia are awaiting your call. Mr Nang should be at your apartment in the next fifteen or so minutes.”

There was a pause “CEO Hou I need to remind you, there is the teleconference with the European and American branches schedule in an hour. While …”

“I know they were being argumentative about the scheduling of the meeting, they all agreed to be in at the odd hours considering that I am leaving for. Fine, I will be five minutes and heading into the office.”

Hou Yi ended the call, and Anna turned and looked at him as he said “Damn executives. They act as if they are doing a favour to me, instead of conferencing with the CEO. Yes, I trust them to run what they are appointed to run, but in the end I am the one responsible …”

“Yi calm down.” Anna leant over and gave him a brief kiss “Tell them if they want to be too problematic, that I will kill them, even threaten them with your pregnant wife, if needed.”

Hou YI, looked at Anna’s face and realised that she was trying to get him to lighten up, but at the same time he wondered. “Are you serious?”

“Yi, use it. I am betting most of the male executives have wives who were pregnant at some stage and the women possibly may have been pregnant, so threatening them with your angry pregnant wife, if they pull games today…”

Hou Yi then laughed, realising that Anna was giving him the total mess them up move today, and permission to start broadcasting her pregnancy, even though she was 12 weeks. He paused and then asked, “And you are happy for them to know before your parents?”

“Yi, my mother will not care, and Dad will be OK about not knowing until I see him face to face. Now go, because I do not want to delay anything.”

“Anna, depending on what you find out from Alister Nang, if you need another director from Hou Enterprises, Dad will be free and can help, or even Tan if he has to be there for Alecia, can sign on behalf of Hou Enterprises. Just let me know if you need me.”

“I will. Everything is otherwise in hand for the departure tonight.”

Hou Yi observed that Anna, despite her pleasant tone was masking her impatience. She could not wait for this formal wedding ceremony in Australia.
