Offer To The CEO

98 Telling Anna's Family - Part 3

Sunday, continued ...

"So, you guys are back to stay then," jumped in Anna's baby brother James.

"Actually no, this is a flying visit, we have to go back."Replied Anna.

"You have a job, family and friend here, you do not need to go back," said Adam and Susan, in unison.

Before Anna or Yi could respond the waitresses came in and removed the entrée plates and placed everyone's mail course down in front of them.Everyone arranged for new drinks, before the conversation continued.

Hou Yi leaned over to Anna "I'll continue so you can have something to eat."With that he raised her hand and briefly kissed it, before setting it down on the table.Anna felt goosebumps up her arms when Hou Yi kissed her hand.She knew to her that that meant more than just comfort, but she did not know what it exactly meant.

Hou Yi, turned to the family "No we have to go back.This is simply a flying visit to resolve some matters for Anna, before we return, back home.We will be looking for somewhere here locally as a holiday home, but Australia will only be for visits.I am unable to leave and relocate here, even though if Anna wants it.She understands and accepts this."

"Why the f**king hell not.Anna has a good job, and a huge support network, and you are asking her to sacrifice everything for you.You are just like that Lu Jinhu, not respecting her as a person," came an angry response from Ben.

"Yi, I think you have no choice but to tell them the rest."

"Sweetheart are you sure you want me to let them know all of that?"

"Absolutely, they have to understand.You know that I am happy with my decision."Anna then leaned over and slightly turned Hou Yi's head, so she could give him a short, sweet kiss on the lips.For Anna the jolt that went through her in pressing her lips to Hou Yi was amazing.What did it mean?that she could not answer.

For Hou Yi, his wife's voluntary actions, while sending a message to her family was amazing.His wife had done it herself, without feeling pressured.He wished that he could capture that feeling for all his life, the love of his life showed some affection to him for the first time in public.

"OK.Anna has said I have to tell you the other part.We did not want to tell you that on this trip, as we knew taking on what Anna had to tell you about what Lu Jinhu did was significant, but this will make you even more stressed out."

"What it is, do not tell me she is pregnant," yelled Meredith.

Meredith's voice caused a reaction on the bodyguards who ran to beside Hou Yi and Anna, who both turned and snapped at them to "sit back down" in unison, which they did.

Hou Yi continued "I think that you have gathered that the gentleman at the table over there are bodyguards.They are here specifically for Anna and I."Anna noticed a number of shocked looks around the table."I am CEO of our family owned Corporation in Country X…"

"So you are a businessman, you can run a business here" jumped in James.

"Sorry it is not that easy.The family company, with its worldwide subsidiaries is considered to be one of the top 500 companies in the world…"

"You have to be f**king kidding," said Ben and Adam almost in unison.

"No, I am not.On one site alone, we have over over ten thousand employees.I could not tell you how many employees there are worldwide, as that changes depending on various projects within certain divisions.I simply cannot up and relocate.Anna knows, that anytime she needs to come and see you, all she has to do is ask and one of the company planes is at her disposal, and you all have a standing invitation to come and visit when you like…"

Stan finally reacted "But the cost, none of us could afford us."

"Mr Jones, we would not expect any of you to pay.We would arrange the travel and cover the costs.I am also intending to purchase a Melbourne Unit for us, as well as a property in the area so we can relax.As I understand you work on farms, Ben and Adam we would ask you to look after the property and the farming business on it would be yours, as I have no interest in that."

"The only things I would do, is install a large enough airstrip and some associated buildings.I will have to secure those and the homestead and the driveway, but the rest of the property will be yours to use all the time, and when we are not there all but the homestead area will be yours to use, provided that you clean the strip before we arrive.Do not give us an answer now, you can think about it."

As Hou Yi stopped talking, something finally twigged for Rosemary "S**t you own that f**king plane at the airport?"
