Offer To The CEO

Chapter 145 - Thank God Tuesday's Gone - Part 4



Wednesday, continued ...

Meanwhile, Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin at their home, had been up for hours. The were wishing that they could re-do the night before.

Lu Jinhu, prior to arriving had blackmailed a friend to listen to whatever he needed to say about Anna. He had no worries about the friend, and knew that whatever he said he would spread like wildfire, as he as a gossip. He also knew that he could position the discussion so people would overhear it and gossip about it.

He had not counted on Hou Yi and Anna Jones arriving early. Hou Yi detested the theatre and despite his friendship with the Chen's showed up no earlier than 10 minutes before people needed to be seated. He believed he had at least 40 minutes from their arrival to spread their version of events to destroy Anna socially and undermine Hou Yi's character therefore damaging Hou Enterprises in the one breath.

The important thing is that it would make Hou Enterprises vulnerable to further attacks, lose alliances with other companies and in the long term, allow Lu Corporation to overtake its position and consume it. That would replace what they lost when Hou Yi married that witch Anna.

He thought everyone had accepted his version that Anna was a lying manipulative b**ch, but then she confronted him with the back up of Hou Yi, not only claiming video footage survived of the Key Plaza Hotel but threatened him regarding the Australian Court proceedings. He knew enough from having lived with her for 5 years that she was an extremely competent lawyer, and if she was claiming he could be charged with contempt of court, that it would be true.

The worst part was that Yang Lin's pregnancy had been disclosed. How in the f**k did Hou Yi find out about that? They had not told either family, and they received an aggressive phone call from Yang's Lin's parents earlier that morning. They were just waiting for the same call from his parents, about not knowing about her pregnancy.

He was so annoyed that it became known how much of a player he was, manipulating women for his own ends. Yes, he knew that he cared for Yang Lin, and more importantly for the child that she was carrying as it would secure his position as the heir to Lu Corporation given what extended family members were trying to do to push him out of the company.

The problem was, he knew that it was only a temporary marriage, as there was no way he trusted his wife. He could control her presently, but she could be a b**ch herself. He knew she was greedy and grasping, and ultimately out for herself. He knew that he had to stay married to her for at least 12 months after their child, provided it was a male, was born and he would divorce her, keeping their child and throwing her to the curb. He just hoped that the baby was a boy, as he did not think he could deal with her if she had a daughter. There was no way he wanted to remain married to someone who he could not completely control.

Yang Lin, on the other hand, had been trying to contact her friends. None of them would reply to any text messages she sent. Some refused to answer her calls, and others would answer and tell her bluntly that they wanted to have nothing to do with her. Yang Lin knew of herself that she was a popular friend within the elites within City T, as everyone wanted to be her friend.

Her parents had always assured her that she was the most beautiful person, with the best personality in that social group. To her, she knew that this meant that she received and was entitled to the best of everything, and was entitled to the biggest discounts. Business knew that without her grace and favour she would destroy them if she did nto get what she wanted. Her mother's side of the family were descended from Royalty and her father's side of the family were military elites for generations, save and except in the last 4 generations where business became important.

Yang Lin knew that no one could top her standing. Yet here were those socially inferior to her, that in the past she could simply destroy, now trying to destroy her, and take her place at the top of society, which she would not stand for. The unwillingness of her friends to support her, was feeling like a crushing blow, as she did not know how she could destroy everyone of them who was offending her.

She knew, that she had to ensure that Anna and Hou Yi were destroyed, as that would ensure that she would return to her position within society. More importantly, Anna deserved everything that she got, including the slap from her last night.
