Friday, continued . . .
Just as Anna Jones hung up from Hou Yi about their changed arrangements, Assistant Wang entered the room shutting the door . "Madam Hou, I just received a message from CEO Hou's chief bodyguard . CEO Hou will not make it back in time . "
"Assistant Wang, that is OK . I was just speaking to Yi, and he told me the same thing . Have you those translated documents?"
"Here they are Madam, along with those last documents you provided me and the documents I scanned for you this morning . A car with your bodyguard in it is downstairs . Madam, please be careful there are some rumours about the building about you . I have tried to stop them, but without luck . If there is any issue, press the star and hash keys on your mobile down for 5 seconds, it is an alarm on your phone . Good Luck while you are away and see you when you return . "
"You are not coming?"
"No Madam, CEO Hou has indicated that this is a personal trip that might have a little business mixed in . I am to stay here and keep an eye on the business . "
Anna left Hou Yi's office and walked towards the elevators . As she arrived, a couple of woman, came out of offices, and stood behind her . One said, "Who does that b**th think she is, waltzing into CEO Hou's office when she likes . She has no right to . " Anna thought I absolutely have the right to go in . Just you wait .
The sarcastic response was "Well she must think she is Madam Hou, the Lady Boss of the company . " Anna, thought then was, how correct you are .
"Well, CEO Hou is still looking so his wife . " With that Anna, really wanted to say I am his wife, but she knew that it was not the time to say anything .
"Given Miss Yang, married someone else today, both of us have a shot, that woman would not even get anywhere . " Anna grinned to herself, how little do you know . Just as the doors were opening on an elevator, Anna was pushed from behind, causing her to fall into a man getting out of the elevator, who became irate at this .
Anna, carefully picked herself up off the ground . She turned to man and said "I apologise, I was accidentally bumped and fell . "
"Do not blame your clumsiness on anyone else . You did that deliberately to try and humiliate me . Apologise for that . "
"I have already apologised for the situation . "
"No you have not . Well it looks like the only way I am going to get my proper apology is do deal with you . You could only be here because you are staff . Who is your supervisor?"
"No one, I am simply working here to aid Hou Enterprises deal with an issue in Australia . CEO Hou knows all about the matter . "
"Well then, I will have CEO Hou have you apologise to me, and you fired, and charged . " With that he grabbed Anna by the arm, and started to pull her along the corridor .
Assistant Wang, having seen what happened, immediately called CEO Hou, and ask him to return to the office . He ran down the corridor, and said "Vice-CEO Ji, can you please let the lady go . I let CEO Hou know what happened, and he has said he will be here in about 30 minutes to deal with the situation . I will take her into my office, and feel free to return to your office . As soon as CEO Hou is ready for you, I will call you . "
Assistant Wang, escorted Anna back to Hou Yi's office . "Madam Hou, CEO Hou has suggested to go and relax in his office, and he will deal with this when he gets back . Do you need anything to drink?"
"Something cold will be fine"
"You will find some in the fridge, near the couch Madam Hou . "
Assistant Wang exited Hou Yi's office, and Anna just fell onto the couch, staring off into the distance, thinking about what she had to tell Hou Yi . She was only diverted from that thought, when Hou Yi walked into the office, and came over and sat by her . "Anna, what happened?"
"I was standing at the elevators waiting to go down to get into the car to meet you at the airport . Two women were talking behind me, effectively calling me nothing . As the elevator door opened I was pushed in the back into a person Assistant Wang called Vice-CEO Ji . Despite my apology for the accident, Vice-CEO Ji demanded I apologise for deliberately doing what I had done, which I refused . When I also refused to provide my supervisors name so he could speak to them, he then demanded you had to deal with me . I got the impression he wants you to dismiss me, and have me charged . "
"The idiot . Let me deal with him for you . "
Anna started shaking, and Hou Yi gathered her in his arms . Less than a minute later, the door opened, and they heard "CEO Hou, I need to talk to . . . "
