Offer To The CEO

Chapter 620 - Return And Reality - Part 7



Monday, continued…

Hou Yi sat there in silence. His own investigations had him believing Jane Gang had a financial motive for what she was doing, but this was about financial destruction of the Lu's to an extent that he knew even his plans would take years to achieve. The thing was, she was going to achieve it in a short time frame.

"Your lack of comments was my reaction as well. She knows he is going down on at least some of the charges, and views from a professional standpoint that he will get more than two years. My view, and no one will ever prove it, is she is using him for multiple purposes. Until he goes down, for the purposes of feeding her own s*xual needs, and then getting as much money from him as she possibly can to take revenge for what he did to her family."

"You are certain on your conclusions?" questioned Hou Yi, wanting to make sure King had come to the opinion he had through his own investigations about Jane Gang.

"As to what we have found out, yes. But as to her actions, it is only a conclusion based on what we found out, press reporting from the time of Belinda Hwuag's suicide and then that of her parents, and a few logical guesses."

"In other words, a wild a*se guess"

"Your wife is rubbing off on you, but yes. Everything seems to fit that as the right conclusion, but we will not be certain."

"You know I was planning on taking him down more financially once this had all settled, but if you are correct, why would I waste my time and effort when someone else has their own reasons," responded Hou Yi not giving away to King what he actually knew

"True, but we are working on other things as a backup. Some of those we will only move on if it does not happen, but others that will be followed through like the Studio City Development as it makes good business sense. Speaking of that, have you seen the proposal on that?"

"I have, but I have given it to a couple of people to review as I wanted an objective decision. Once they are done, I will let you know." Hou Yi paused before continuing "But I am assuming you are going to keep investigating Jane Gang."

"Correct. I want to be certain so we can finalise plans to deal with Lu Jingho for what he did to our Princess and the Empress personally and the impacts on the Queen. Can I trust you to make sure you only pass on what you know is obtained from strictly legal sources?"

"I will. The last thing we need is to have information out there that is not from obtained through legal means. It only feeds into Lu Jinhgo's delusions that my family always target him. Yes, we despise him particularly given what he did to my mother but targeting him who would waste the energy. We are in business to make money and are damn well successful in that, so it makes no sense."

King paused, and looked closely at Hou Yi, and suddenly realised something. "Toff you knew this, and you said nothing."

"King, you expect me to tell you everything I know. Your work, which I suspect will re-confirm everything I have gathered, give us information we can provide Alister. You know when I set my mind to something, I do not leave any loose threads, and working out what was happening and the potential impacts of that, was a loose end. The one thing I did not know was the contents of the agreement. If that is true, we can still go through with our plans as a backup, but the major part of the work to ruin him financially will be done by someone else, who while having her own reasons, fits out plans."

"You are ruthless Toff, and I suspect your wife does not know how much."

"King you are no different. Your wife never knew the extent of your ruthlessness, and I never told her. She loved you and that was what was important. I love Anna, and I know she suspects a level of my ruthlessness, she does not know the extent, and does not need to. But my actions are within the law, so ultimately, I do not worry if she knows about it, I just do not want her pregnancy risked too much about finding out about this."

King knew that he would not win a battle with Hou Yi, so he paused and directed the conversation towards the details Hou Enterprises needed in the proposal for the Studio City redevelopment.
