Offer To The CEO

108 Telling her assistan

Monday, continued ...

When she finished reading the email from her boss, Anna Jones realised what time it was, and turned to Yi "I just need to turn those points emailed into the agreement, but I realised that it is 12:30pm.What do you want to do for lunch?"

"Anna, I will send one of the guards to get something for us and stay with you here."Hou Yi then went to the door, and opened it, speaking to one of the bodyguards, who Anna seen walking off.

Anna paid little attention and kept working on her laptop as she wanted to get this agreement done, quickly.As she started, a bulk email was received to everyone in the firm 'There is a staff meeting for ALL staff, no exceptions at 1:45pm.Staff will be compensated for the 15 minutes shorter lunch, with an early finish on Friday.'She realised that to her, this was the meeting to advise everyone of her marriage and her moving to Country X, and all else that is going on.

Anna noted the email and kept working.Just as she finished the agreement, there was a knock on the door, and a bodyguard with lunch entered.The bodyguard simply handed the lunch to each of them.Given the lack of printer in the interview room, Anna logged out and went through reception into the work area, and headed straight to Jodie.Jodie had her back to Anna, so Anna, touched her on the shoulder "Hi Jodie"

Jodie jumped in shock, and then replied "Anna, why did you not tell me you were coming back?"

"The staff meeting will let you know what is going on with me.Can you print off from the youngest HOUENT file the agreement in there and bring it to me in Interview Room 3.I am guessing as it is a Monday that you brought your lunchBring it with you, and I will give you a heads up about everything."

"Will do boss.See you in a couple of minutes."

Anna walked back out and returned to Interview Room three.She paused and told the bodyguards "In a couple of minutes, my assistant Jodie Hughes will be here.Do not stop her.She will use her own pass card to get in."

"Yes Madam Hou."

Anna went in, and sat next to Hou Yi."Yi, my assistant is coming in with the agreement.I would like to see if she would be willing to resign from here, and relocate to become my personal assistant, both in work matters and everything else.I trust her, and I know I need someone around me I fully trust.Can we pay all her costs to relocate, and get her a house, and help her partner get a job"

"Anna, absolutely, whatever you want.You and I will sponsor her working visa, and so that she is safe I will arrange for a secure apartment for her, if she will come.Triple her current wage, because you trust her, I will trust her.As to her partner, we will help him, but the only thing for him, is that they will have to be married, for us to sponsor their visas."

Before they could get into anything else or Anna commence eating her lunch, Jodie came in with the document, and not realising that Hou Yi was there, said "Anna what is with those heavies outside?They almost were not going to let me in, until I identified that I was your assistant.Here is that document, and that makes me ask another question, what is going on with your life."

"Jodie, this is Hou Yi.Can you witness both of us signing this document, and take it to Mr William's office.Once you come back I will give you the explanation.I promise."

"Fine" was Jodie's snappy reply.Very quickly Anna, and Hou Yi signed the document, Hou Yi signing it personally and as the CEO of Hou Enterprises, and Jodie witnessed the signatures.She left and dealt with the document as Anna has asked.She returned a couple of minutes later, just as Anna was quickly finishing the salad roll the bodyguard had purchased for her.

"Come on Anna, spill.When I was those Family Law Orders, I knew something was going on.I respected you so I did not go digging into that restricted file with your name on it.So tell."

"Settle in, and why I am telling you eat, as I do not want you interrupting me, as you tend to do."Anna paused while Jodie opened her lunch.

"Let me just say with respect to Lu Jinhu, as you likely gathered from the orders, he was out to get everything from me.But for him messing up with the post office box he had for me, I would have not seen the orders and been able to stop him.But that is the tip of the iceberg."

"You never liked him as you believed he was abusive, and I refused to listen to your concerns.You were right, he was verbally abusive, psychologically manipulative to the point he pushed almost all my friends out of my life, and economically abusive.I do not want to go into details.He used me to get Australian Citizenship.And no I have not married him.Hou Yi, is not just a representative of a client, he and I were married last Tuesday."

"What!" spat out a shocked Jodie."You have to be kidding me, you escape him, and you marry someone else.Are you stupid?"
