Offer To The CEO

674 One Final Trip - Part 2

Sunday, continued…

Ninety minutes later, Anna and Hou Yi arrived at the Yao Family Villa. Anna quickly realised that the Villa, like the Hou Ancestral Home was in an area of City K where the elites lived.? As they descended from the car, both Hou Yi and Anna were shocked to see what clearly appeared to be a military vehicle sitting among the cars in toe forecourt.

Anna turned and asked, "Is someone in the Yao Family in the military?"

Hou Yi said "There are three Yao siblings. Chester, the oldest, heads Jax Corp's entertainment division. You might remember he was the head of the delegation that you and Alecia met for us in Hong Kong. The middle sibling Andrew is the CEO of Jax Corp. Before you ask, Chester never wanted to be the CEO, and Andrew did."

"Lexi is the youngest and only daughter of the family.? As I told you is a fashion designer. She was married and widowed at a very young age and has a young son. ?From what Chester has informed me, she was not able to cope from the death of her husband, a few weeks after her son died.? Chester assumed custody of him, allowing Lexi, who at the time of his death was only eighteen, to study and start her career.? I understand she was regularly back visiting her son but returned home around six months ago."

"As far as I know neither Andrew nor Lexi are married.? Chester is gay.? When he was younger in accordance with family expectations he married, but he divorced his wife a few years ago.? I only met her once and calling her a witch is being extremely polite. The love of Chester's life is his childhood friend Phillip Rong, the CEO of JL International. Phillip's brother is in the army, but as far as I know he was disowned by his family when he joined the military and has never been back.? Phillip, Chester let me know has recently been re-diagnosed with cancer."

"That is good information to know."

As they were shown into a room where three men where.? Once she recognized and based on what Yi had told her she realised this was Chester Yao.? With him were two other men. ?One had some similar features to Chester, which Anna presumed was his brother Andrew, and another man, who appeared unwell and combined with Chester's reactions Anna guessed he was Phillip Rong, they heard yelling and a crash. This caused all three men to wince.

The next thing both Anna and Hou Yi heard was "Matthew Rong, you might be a colonel in the military, but you have no right to interfere in my life. Get out of here before I have you thrown out and arrested by the police," followed by another crash.

Chester walked over, and after shaking Hou Yi's hand and kissing Anna, said "Apologies, Lexi has just been told something that she does not want to hear. She is so used to being in control of her life, and this has taken it from her. I just pity Matthew presently, as he is the one in the firing line as he had to tell her."

After another crash, a military officer walked into the room. Anna saw that as soon as he spotted her and Hou Yi the already tense man, tensed up further. Andrew responded "Matthew come in."

"Phillip, Chester, Andrew, I was hoping to stay, but Lexi is not getting what the situation is. She has no choice and Phillip, your friend the president, can confirm that to any of you. She is trying to argue against the law of the land. While my superiors are willing for her to live here, at my villa or at my on-base accommodations, due to her attitude, I am only giving her the last two choices.? Two of my staff will be here to accompany her soon."

He took a deep breath and continued "John already knows about the situation and when she called him before he told her the police cannot interfere. If she tries to go to any other location other than those three or our Family Villa Phillip, her studio, Dominic's school or your offices during the day, all her choices will be removed, and she will be taken to my on-base accommodations. And the three of you know…"

"We cannot interfere. You have told us that repeatedly in the last week and a half, brother and we will not. Just remember Lexi presently hates you as of it all."

"Phillip, I know, but she has to get her head around things." There was a brief pause, and he turned to Anna and Hou Yi and said "I have to apologise for interrupting your greeting everyone CEO and Madam Hou. I had planned to stay but things have changed." With that Matthew Rong turned and left the room and they quickly heard the military vehicle start up.
