Friday
Despite having spent a long passionate night with his wife Hou Yi work up early and simply leant on his elbow watching her sleep. This was something that he was going to miss over the next ten or so days. He was hopeful that this should be the last business trip that he would have to do before Anna was due to give birth. Uncle Feng had already told him that he would try and make the trips for him after this.
The only thing about this trip was that he was disappointed that he could not take Anna with him, but as the obstetrician telephoned him Wednesday afternoon and told him, his preference would be for Anna not to travel overseas unless absolutely necessary and they would have to the obstetrician's approval for any trip.? As he said, he did not want to say that to Anna directly as he was not certain how she would take it and she did not need the stress of another restriction on her.
After a while Hou Yi looked at the clock and realised that it was coming up towards 7:30am, which meant that they needed to get moving given the needed to be at the court. He quietly slipped out of bed and moved into the walk-in robe to select clothes for both of them for the day. He was grateful that he had arranged with Butler Ge last night to ensure that his cases were packed for the trip and sent to the airport for the flight tonight, and extracted a promise that he would ensure that Anna was well taken care of while he was away.
When he returned to the bedroom, Anna was still deep asleep, and he hated the idea of waking her, but knew that there was no option. After getting over the shock of being woken Anna, was not too angry. She realised that they needed to get the courthouse, with the hope that matters would be such that a timeline for finalisation of the matters should be determined.Find authorized novels in Webnovel?faster updates, better experience?Please click .Comfor visiting.
Forty-five minutes later, after they had both gotten ready, and eaten the light breakfast that had been brought in by the staff they headed down into the car to the courthouse. When they arrived Yao Tan and Amanda were climbing out of their own car to head in as well. The four of them, with the help of their bodyguards forced their way into the courthouse given the media scrum that was still waiting for them.
As they entered the courthouse, Alister Nang was awaiting them, and ushered them towards a room to wait until the matter was called. They sat down, and started talking about James and Alecia, given that James had completed his degree, Alecia was in her final exams and it was less than a month before they returned.
Yao Tan turned and asked, "Well Yi, given the present you have given those two, where is the work on the apartment at?"
"The builders finished everything last week, and the painters finished Wednesday. The last things that are being finished off is the carpets in the bedrooms and other areas they wanted are being laid today. All that is left is for the furniture to be brought in."
"You know, given you have prevented me from having the pleasure of helping them with their house, you better let me decorate it," spat out Yao Tan.
"Tan," calmly came Hou Yi, "We have been over this, so I will not argue about the apartment. However, it is free for you to decorate. James and Alecia have indicated things that they want, which is listed in a folder in the apartment, and I am guessing you will be bringing over Alecia's personal belongings from your apartment. Just be happy for them."
"Damn it, you know this is not the end of this discussion."
Amanda, placing her hand on Yao Tan's arm, leant over and quietly said "Let it be." Amanda then louder said "We will come over on the weekend and look over things with you so that we can get the decoration and furniture and sorted."
"That is fine, and Yi is away so we will not have to put up with these two and their childish behaviour. They remind me of two children who have had their lolly-pops taken away from them."
"Children" can an indignant response from Hou Yi and Yao Tan together.
Alister Nang, before the conversation could go further entered the room and they headed to the courtroom.
Once inside the court room turning to look at Lu Jingho, it was obvious to see that he felt that he was in complete control of the situation.? Anna and Hou Yi looked at each other silently telling the other he had no idea that he was not in control.? Seeing him realise that fact in the future would be an absolute pleasure.
