Offer To The CEO

101 Cheering Up Anna

Sunday, continued ...

"If Rebecca was here I, would say take us to somewhere where there is alcohol and let us drink, but I do not think that these guys surrounding us would like that too much.How about, we go walking through Flagstaff Hill just over there, then on the way back to the airport, we could go via Tower Hill.Simple, easy, and these guys can lighten up a little, and have some fun."When she was talking about Flagstaff Hill, Rosemary pointed in a direction towards the Museum's entrance.

Taking Rosemary's suggestion, Hou Yi turned to her "I guess that it is OK.Not moving to far, but walking might be all that she needs."With that they turned and walked to the entrance of Flagstaff Hill.

Hou Yi, pulled out his credit card, and handed it over to pay for their entry, plus they told the staff to add the charge so that they could pay for the next 20 adults' to arrive entry as well, and charge a further $2,000 as a donation.As they spent the next hour and a half walking simply walking around, Anna started to calm down, and by the end she was happy being teased by her sister-in-law.Hou Yi, on and off would take Anna's hand, not only to keep her by his side, but send the message he wanted her to try and understand in how much he loved her.

As they were heading up the hill, Hou Yi spotted a little chapel in the grounds, and was interested in it so he wandered over.Rosemary walked over to him "What are you finding interesting about that."

"I just found it interesting.Do you know if it is just for display?"

"Actually, it is considered consecrated ground.There are often weddings that use the church, and couples often come in and take photographs here.Why are you interested?"

"How people get married in my country is different here.We have to attend a government authority and register our relationship.We get issued by the government a wedding certificate.Wedding ceremonies are only if you want them, but are not required.Most couples have such ceremonies for friends and family to celebrate their relationship.I wanted to give Anna a wedding here, with her family and friends around, but given your mother's attitude that may be impossible to achieve without contacts."

"Look Yi, I can do that.Stuff my mother-in-law.She thought Lu Jinhu was a saint, and always blamed Anna for any little problems.Meredith believes that men, particularly men who put women in what she sees as their place, walk on water, and blames any relationship on the woman.To her, despite how she treats Stan, she views that in a relationship a man is entitled to do what he needs to asserting his authority."

"Her parent's own religious beliefs are the cause of this.It is, as Anna described it best cult-like.While Meredith left and married Stan, for her children she expects them to follow her parents' beliefs as to the relationship between a man and his woman/wife.Ben, and I, Adam and Rosemary, Susan and Wayne all pay this lip service in front of Meredith, simply as she is Stan's wife.Ben, Adam and Susan are lucky that she is only their stepmother, and they have the buffer of their mother's family to defeat the imposition of Meredith's beliefs on them."

"Rebecca and I do not give a care about Rosemary's beliefs, but we respect them in front of her not to cause an argument.However, as Anna is her daughter, she really ingrained those beliefs into her, and Anna had no real escape from it.While I am not a psychologist, I would guess this made her vulnerable to Lu Jinhu.Meredith will never change, but your wealth may change her attitude as she worships money.The problem is for Anna, her mother will never really accept her."

"As to a wedding ceremony here, I am happy to help, and I know Rosemary and Susan will be to.All we will do is not say anything to Meredith to the last minute and tell her that she is the mother of the bride and give her an outfit.That will inflate her self-esteem for the day and she will behave."

"Thank you, Rosemary.My mother and Aunt, along with my assistant are working on matters back home.Can I get your details to give to them, so they can contact you?"

"I will write them down for you before you go."

Anna, turned around, and saw Hou Yi and Rosemary standing near the chapel."What are you two talking about?"

Hou Yi immediately said "The church made me think how wonderful you will look as a bride."

This made Anna blush, but before she could reply, Rebecca jumped in "Come on you two, you are not going to make me feel as if I am not needed.We are going to Tower Hill, so get moving."Rosemary came over to Anna, and gently pulled her nose and started running.Anna laughed and ran after her sister-in-law, which despite needing to run put a smile on the bodyguards faces as well.Hou Yi, walked behind everyone else, with one bodyguard at his side.
