Offer To The CEO

Saturday

Anna and Hou Yi awoken with a knock on their room door, before it was opened and they heard a voice calling out "Boss, Lady Boss, breakfast is here." After glancing at the clock, they realized that is was 7:45am, and that by 8:30 everyone would start arriving for Anna to get ready.

Both Anna and Hou Yi quickly got out of bed, and after Hou Yi put on a dressing room, and pushed Anna towards the bathroom, he walked into the lounge area to find two of the bodyguards, with breakfast. Hou Yi, quickly placed them where they would keep warm, and pushed the bodyguards out the door, warning them to give them some notice when everyone started to come towards the room.

He quickly turned towards the bathroom and joined Anna in the shower. Both of them, while wanting to indulge each other in the shower they also were realistic as to what was ahead, so simply satisfied each other by washing the other and kisses before dragging themselves out and changing into casual clothes before getting ready for the day.

At the table, Hou Yi pulled out Anna's chair for her, and walked over and placed her breakfast in front of her along with a glass of orange juice and a cup of decaffeinated Coffee, while also himself having a cup of tea.

When he sat down, Anna said "I could not believe my brother's last night."

"I just thought that they would use that for blackmail purposes, but it was so damn embarrassing to see that footage played on the big screen."

"At least they had the courtesy to see that the blurred out everything on the nudie run that I had to do when I lost that Grand Final bet."

"And what was worse that my parents cooperated with that. Those damn photos and film that they had."

"At least everyone seemed to take it with the fun that it was meant to be, even those that have come over."

"True. The funny thing was, that the friends of my parents, including a couple of government ministers and former company CEO, all were itching to speak to your damn brothers, as they want to have a go at milking a cow by hand. The Agricultural minister was the worst of the lot."

"I missed that."

"I am not sure who you were talking to. And the worst thing is Adam and Ben have said that there is some after wedding party at the farm tomorrow and promised them that they could have a go then."

"Damn, I thought they had forgot about that. Rosemary mentioned something about a day after the wedding party, and I dismissed it. Did they say anything else?"

"Not really. They said they have organized a couple of buses to take everyone out to wherever it is organised and they have everything in hand."

"That scares me. Adam, Ben and Wayne in charge of something, it could be an utter disaster. Those three have the idea that a party is a barbeque, snacks and alcohol."

"Ben mentioned James and Alecia were helping out."

"OK that might be safe. James tends to keep the others from getting to much out of control and Alecia hopefully will temper it further to ensure that it does not offend anyone."

Before Hou Yi could respond, there was a knock on the door, and one of the bodyguards entered "Boss, Madam's sisters, Madam Yao and Miss Alecia are all coming."

"Thank you."

"Wait a moment please," quietly said Alecia. "Can you please pass on a message to everyone. I want all of you to enjoy today. Yes, I know you have a job and you are here away from your family, but this is meant to be a family ceremony, and I will not enjoy the day if you do not participate."

"Madam, we need to protect you and …"

"No," interrupted Hou Yi quite curtly. "My wife is right. Do your job but enjoy the day. I know my mother made sure there are tables in the reception hall for you and everyone else's bodyguards, so please join us. Plus, someone better speak to my brothers-in-law and sort out about the so called party they have organized for tomorrow."

The bodyguard noticing that Anna and Hou Yi had quite determined faces, realized that there would be no arguing with anyone, and simply responded "Yes Sir, and I will make sure that gets passed on to all the various security details for your guests."
