Offer To The CEO 336 Chapter 313: Girls Night Out - Part 2

Wednesday, continued …

With Amanda's pause Anna spoke "There is something more about that part of the story, Amanda?"

Amanda took a breath, and gently continued "Tan, at me urging due to how each of the triplets were coping in the aftermath of the attack on Alecia contacted their mother. She agreed to come back and speak to them, only after Tan promised to pay her money to come."

"When she was arrived, she demanded in front of them that Tan give her the money he promised her to come. She talked to them, about what I do not know, but she came into the lounge room where Tan and I were sitting and yelled at him, while demanding more money that the triplets were a mistake and she should have made sure she killed them. She also commented that she could not believe Tan kept them rather than dumping them in an orphanage."

"She also commented that Alecia deserved what happened to her, and then demanded that Tan pay her more money because she had broken away from her schedule to come here. Alecia overheard that and came in and told her mother to never come back, and the boys were behind her nodding."

"After Tan and I got married, and helping them deal with that and what happened to Alecia the triplets despite being sixteen asked me to adopt them."

Anna, having heard the story, quietly said "I had no idea."

Amanda quickly responded "I am surprised that your husband did not tell you. But my husband better watch it, I will kill him that he did not give me warning with what was going on because it means that I will struggle to protect the triplets. They do not need anything else messing up their life at this time, even their father."

"Actually I have a better idea. How about you tell him off, and then dump him for the night and join my sisters-in-law and me for a girls night out. The plan is a meal and watching a movie somewhere, so maybe even bring Alecia with you?"

"Well It is a school night ... Hang on Alecia completed her last exam yesterday, so Tan can go jump tonight. His arrogance has placed us at risk, without telling us, so a girls nigh out sounds good."

"Perfect. Come and meet is at the Hou Ancestral Home, as that is where we are staying why my family are out here, and we will leave from here." Anna briefly paused, "Amanda, despite my having not met Alecia do you think that she would be alright with being a bridesmaid for my wedding? Yi, has my brother, three brothers-in-law and your husband as his groomsmen, and I hols have you, my sister, two sisters-in-law. I need one more to balance up the older members."

"I will ask her, but I think she will love it, especially as it means that she can spend a little time in Australia, as she has always wanted visit there, and see a Koala in person."

"Talk soon"

"Bye Anna."

With that Anna ended the call finished selecting what she needed to return back the the ancestral home, slipping off a hanger a long loose dress with its matching wrap, and a pair of flat shoes that she could wear on the right foot. She carefully placed them in a bag, before carefully carrying it out and getting it to one of the bodyguards who helped get her back downstairs before heading back to the ancestral home.

Meanwhile …

Amanda spoke to her step-daughter Alecia, who was looking forward to a girl's night out. Amanda then texted her husband saying 'Tan I am so annoyed with what you have done today. Alecia and I having a girls night out, and security will be provided by Hou Yi.'

When he received the message, Yao Tan realised that Amanda was annoyed with him so he needed to figure out what was happening. Before he could call Hou Yi, he received a call from him.

"Yi, what is going on, your wife has invited my wife and daughter out tonight."

"I had arranged for my wife and her sisters-in-law to go out for a meal and a movie. With Anna's leg in a cast they could not do more than that. So, what, she invited your wife and daughter. Alecia is sixteen-years-old. Please do not think, my friend, I am being flippant, but Alecia needs to meet Anna. They have both been treated horribly by Lu Jinhu and hopefully meeting her might end up inspiring her to actually take the final step."

"Yi, she needs protection, she realised too early how harsh the world is."

"The same as you did my friend. More importantly for her she has you, and now Amanda there to support her every steps of the way, just as you had your parents. I never figured out how you actually managed to raise three generally well-adjusted children, when, they could easily be your baby siblings."

"Yi, she needs to be safe."

"She will. I have booked a private room at the club, Amanda and Anna will be there, and Anna is not allowed to drink, so she will be sober. There will be a dozen bodyguards, and the club has arranged a private cinema showing of what ever movie they want. No danger. Let go a little tonight."

"You promise me she will be safe."

"Tan she will, now let her enjoy herself." Hou Yi paused, then continued "Now we need to talk business. You know the message CEO Lu had you deliver."

"Yes ..."
