Offer To The CEO

Thursday, continued ...

After sending the message to Hou Yi, Anna decided to keep up their charade, and decided to use the internal telephone system to contact Assistant Wang so that to everyone a meeting was set up. Anna logged out of the CEO's intranet and walked to the door.

Anna spotted Supervisor An, and asked "Supervisor An, I need to contact Assistant Wang to see if I can set a time to see the CEO to have him sign documents that I need to witness. How do I use the internal phone system to do so?"

Supervisor An, was reluctant to cooperate, but wary of the implied threat from this woman in the past, she thought better of it, and responded "Lawyer Jones, the best way to do that is to dial #010 on the phone, which will get reception and ask to be put through to Assistant Wang. Any other way would be too difficult."

"Thank you, Supervisor An." With that Anna closed the door and re-logged onto the CEO's intranet and messaged Assistant Wang 'Wang Long. About to call you through reception to formally request an appointment. If you do not hear from me can you, please call me. Thanks Anna'

With that Anna, called through to reception and asked to be put through to Assistant Wang. The girl on reception, aware of what happened with this woman earlier in the day immediately put Anna through to Assistant Wang. She figured she could continue to listen to the call to see if she could get any information to pass on to Yang Lin.

As soon as Assistant Wang picked up "Assistant Wang, it is Anna Jones here."

"Miss Jones a pleasure. Are you calling to set up a time that you can come up to have the CEO sign some of those documents that need to be returned to Australia?"

"That is correct Assistant Wang. Is it possible to come to see the CEO in about forty-five minutes?"

"Due to the urgency of the matter CEO Hou has instructed me to give you priority Miss Jones. How much time will you need, as I need to shift a meeting?"

"No more than thirty minutes."

"Thank you, Miss Jones. We will see you in about forty-five minutes."

With that Assistant Wang, hung up the phone. Anna briefly heard another noise before the call was completely cut. That confirmed to her that someone was listening to the call. She would have to tell Hou Yi.

Anna, turned back to the computer and kept working through documents, sending some to Hou Yi's printer. Just as she was about to pack up and head to the Hou Yi's office, she received an email 'Anna. File has been opened with restricted access. Application drafted in there for you to look at, along with cost agreement. Let me know when you have drafted the affidavit. Alfred.'

Anna Immediately replied "Alfred. Thanks. Will try to do that tonight. Anna.'

Anna messaged Hou Yi 'Packing up here, will be up in a few minutes.'

'See you when you arrive.'

Anna logged out of the intranet and packed up all her belongings. As she exited the office, Supervisor An spotted her "Lawyer Jones where are you going? The working day is not finished."

"Supervisor An, I have an appointment with the CEO in a few minutes in his office to go through documents. Once they are done, given the balance of documents have not arrived from my Australian Employers there is little I can do until tomorrow, so I will not waste Hou Enterprises money by simply remaining her to satisfy and finishing time. I will see you tomorrow."

"Lawyer Jones, you are under my supervision, that includes your equipment. It has to remain in this office, and more importantly you will have not finished the working day, so you have to return."

"Supervisor An, no. I am, for want of a better term a contractor brought in or a specific task. Once I have seen CEO Hou, that will finalise the contract work for the day. As a contractor I have supplied my own tools, and I will be taking them with me."

"We will see about that"

"Supervisor An, I am not going to argue about this. If you are so determined, then accompany me to the CEO's office and he or Assistant Wang can confirm my role here with Hou Enterprises."

Supervisor An was surprised, but she realised that this would give he an opportunity to get into the CEO's office, and she could take steps to start to seduce him, to ensure she could become Madam Hou, the Boss Lady of Hou Enterprises. "Fine, let us go then. We will have to go down to have someone escort us up to the CEO's level."

With that Anna turned and walked out to the elevators, followed by Supervisor An. Once the Elevator arrived, Anna inserted her pass card, and pressed the button for the CEO's floor, just as Assistant An was about to press the button for the ground level.

"How in the world to you have a pass key to get you to the CEO's office?"

Anna, by this time was annoyed with Supervisor An, as she realised that the reason that she was cooperating with Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin, was that she felt that she could marry Hou Yi. She knew that she needed to cut that off immediately. "Ask the CEO if you dare," was her response.

Less than thirty seconds later they arrived at the CEO's office level, and Supervisor An, ensured that she was getting to Assistant Wang's Office before Anna, as she wanted to be first in to see the CEO. Anna strolled there after her, and as she arrived in Assistant Wang's office, she closed the door, handing him her purse and laptop bag.
