Offer To The CEO

112 Finalising the visi

Tuesday,

Anna got out of bed and went and selected clothes for the day ahead, and went into the bathroom to get ready for the day ahead.It was only when she came out of the bedroom and into the lounge/dining area of the suite that she finally saw Hou Yi.She looked around and found that there was seven red roses sitting beside a plate on the table, and that there were different bunches of flowers around the room."What is going on?"

"Anna, it is the 1-week anniversary of us obtaining our marriage certificate.Regardless of the circumstances, it needed to be marked in some way.You have spent money on clothes, and I guess you do not want to buy more, and the only other option would be jewelry, which I will buy at some stage today.Flowers, seemed somewhat appropriate for today."

Hou YI just hoped that she misconstrued the romantic gesture he made, as he wanted to sent her a subliminal message."All I wanted to do with the flowers is to cheer you up given everything that has happened in the last week.After we leave the suite today, I have arranged for the flowers to be taken to a domestic violence refuge and used to brighten some lives today.Plus, I am donating to the same refuge money for them to use in your name.I figured that you would appreciate that."

"Yi, you did not need to."Anna was surprised that not only was he trying to cheer her up, he was taking to heart making a difference to provide cheer and assistance to victims of domestic violence

"Anna, breakfast will be up soon, but we could leave today, if we get a few things started or done today, in particularly dealing with your belongings here, and starting the process of locating properties we are after.Steve and Mary have put me in contact with a real estate agent to assist us on the search, and have agreed if we do not find something today, they will look at additional properties to help us. Do you want to go back, or actually wait until we locate the properties?"

"Yi, if Jodie accepts the job offer, I would way tonight.If I do not finalise dealing with my belongings, she can do that for me, and as you trust Steve and Mary regarding our property, I will trust them as well.IF you want to buy me jewelry, you can buy me another Pandora Bracelet.Inexpensive, compared to what you are thinking about.Lu Jinhu knows I use the ones I have to mark special and important occasions, but one for us that I wear out to events.He will know what it means, but no one else will, and it will mess around with him."

"Absolutely fine."With that he called for their breakfast and within 5 minutes it arrived in their suite.

After a leisurely breakfast, Anna decided to call Jodie and see what she had decided.Once she reached Jodie "Hi Jodie, how did things go last night?"

"I somewhat made a mess of it when I talked to John.I told him about a job offer, about me working visa being sponsor, but the fact that he would need to marry me to get a visa as well.He was angry, telling me I was attempting to manipulate him, however I said to him I was serious about taking the job.It was his decision what he wanted to do, refuse to marry me and lose me, or marry me and relocate."

"John stormed out but came back about 15 minutes later.You would not believe him.He found a florist and came back with a dozen red roses, got down on one knee and proposed, but told me I had to wait for a ring.When he stormed out, he said he realised that he could marry me or loose me.Given I am the most important thing in his life he decided that he would marry me as soon as he could, rather than losing me.After I settled from his proposal, I then told him about the job offer.He cannot believe that you want me to start as soon as I can."

"Jodie, I cannot believe it.Given how anti-marriage John is I thought he would have walked away, but I am so glad he realised you are the most important thing for him.Can I suggest that you put in your notice at work, as by the time it expires it will be just before your wedding,You can use the time between your marriage and when your visa is issued to have a honeymoon and finalise your affairs.I would also ask if I email you a list of things I did not get finalised before I leave today, if you could resolve them for me as well."

Anna paused, looked at Hou Yi, and then continued "Yi is indicating to me, we will pass your contact details onto his assistant Wang Long, who will contact you about arranging the visas, and the practicalities of your relocation.I have a big favour to ask.We are heading back tonight.If I do not finalise dealing with my belongings today, can you sort that our for me?"

"No problem Anna.Now get going, and deal with what you have to today, but call me before you leave, OK?"

"Will do."

With that Anna ended the call, and walked over to Hou Yi "So what first?"

"I spoke to the agent, who will be here any moment.Our appointment with the passport office, to sport out the change of name on your passport at 11:30am.Then Lunch, and deal with your personally belongings before shopping.We have a departure slot of 10:30pm from Tullamarine.A hotel staff member will come in and pack our belongings while we are dealing with the agent."

As Hou Yi finished, there was a knock on the door, with two people there.One, was identifiable as a hotel staff member who went into the bedroom to pack their belongings under the supervision of a bodyguard, and the other introduced himself as the real estate agent.Between Anna, Hou Yi and two bodyguards, their requirements for the Melbourne property and the Warrnambool area property were discussed.The agent, advised that he would have options emailed as soon as possible and would liaise with Steve and Mary to review the properties.

The rest of their tasks flowed, and as Anna predicted she did not finalise dealing with her personal belongings, and got as much done as she could, knowing that the last remaining things Jodie would see to for her.

Around 4pm. Hou Yi took Anna into a Pandora Store, buying a bracelet and they chose three charms to mark their journey as a couple as Anna wanted it represent.However Hou Yi was determined to purchase some higher end items so he pulled Anna into a jewelry store to purchase some other pieces for her, before they headed to Tullamarine for their departure.Anna called Jodie and spoke to her about what she needed done.As soon as they reached cruising height after take-off they retired to the bedroom, and fell asleep, only awaking as they were getting ready for their descent into Singapore for a refuelling stop.
