Offer To The CEO 681 Someone Else's Revenge

Anna awoke wrapped in the arms of her husband.  For her in that moment life was perfect, she had a husband who loved her and who she loved back, and they were expecting their first children.  Having spent the short time away as a break with Hou Yi was what she needed, given everything that had happened in the last few weeks.  She had forgotten what taking thing easy with her husband was like.

As she moved to head into the bathroom, Hou Yi's mobile started to ring, and he quickly picked it up, saying "What?"

Watching the emotions on his face, she wondered what the news that shocked him to the core was.  He quickly ended the call, and turned to Anna saying "You would not believe what has happened?"

"Something to someone we care for?"

"Absolutely not, but it will be pleasing to know."

"You have me intrigued.  What is it?"

"Jane Gang…"

"What happened?"

"You know the information I had, and we know that some of the sources were not properly legal, but we were aware that her agreement formalising the relations.h.i.+p with Lu Jingho had an out clause with large financial compensation."

"I remember, but…"

"She triggered it yesterday and has engaged a legal firm to enforce the agreement.  You looked at it …"

"I did and it was watertight for her to get out given he is jail…"

"True, but the interesting thing is what she has done, when it was announced.  She is asking for all the money and property that she is ent.i.tled to, but at the same time all she is keeping is a penthouse apartment and less than a million in cash.  The rest of the cash is going into a charitable trust to benefit the victims of violence.  What her intention seems to be is to use the trust to provide funding to various initiatives that already do the work."

"I was hoping that she would do something like that, and not be…"

"Totally irredeemable?"

"True.  There was just something that always told me deep down, there was good in her and she has demonstrated that."

Hou Yi looked at Anna, and saw something in her eyes indicating she was troubled.  "But you are not happy about his downfall?"

"How did you know?"

"I know you too well, my love.  I have the same thoughts."

Hou Yi paused, then continued "You know I wanted to…"

"Destroy him.  That has been obvious for months with all your business maneuvers.  But I know," with that Anna moved and gave Hou Yi a gentle kiss on the lips, and continued "that you wanted to physically hurt both him and Lu Jinhu for their actions towards me.  I am not stupid, although my actions may have at times seemed like I was not only stupid but selfish.  I know you held back on reacting physically save and except where defending yourself."

Anna took Hou Yi's hand and placed in on her stomach "You not only did that for me, but for our family.  Despite not saying it I knew your restrain in action was about respecting me given my career.  I do not know what I did to deserve you."

Hou Yi, looked deeply into Anna's eyes, and said "You are you, and I am the one who is lucky, not you."

With a smile Anna responded "True.  But think about it.  Your legal actions, cut off support for Lu Jingho, ousting him from his CEO position, and has impacted their business to the point Lu Corporation will have to contract back to its core business.  That will minimize the money available in the long term.  But at the same time, it also instigated the whole court process that not only saw his jailing for what he has done, but unexpectedly has seen his current financial situation impacted, by someone with their own need for revenge for his actions towards their family."

Hou Yi pondered Anna's words.  She was right, his need to protect her set he whole chain of events in motion, that has seen this destruction occur.

"I actually think you are right…"

"Thank you, now remember that I am right."

"Do not push your luck," responded Hou Yi in a laughing tone.  He paused and continued "But, I will have to be truthful, my father and grandfather have to be given some credit.  If they had not told such a convincing lie to me about handing over Hou Enterprises if I did not marry by their deadline, we would not have what we want, and everything Lu Jingho has done over the years would not have caught up with him."

Anna smiled, and said "Remind me to thank them later.  Their scheming would have not seen us marry."
