78 An Opening
Thursday, continued ...
After ending the chat exchange with Hou Yi, Anna Jones turned back to concentrate on her work, realising that there was a lot to be done.
She uploaded the documents Assistant Wang scanned for her into the system and forwarded the email to her assistant to deal with, with the message that original signed documents were going via express mail.
Anna, then went into the legal program, and started working through the next batch of documents to review, and deal with Hou Yi about, when she received an email from her assistant Jodie Hughes, who given the time difference must be about getting ready to leave work for the day.
'Anna, we have had information that you did not marry Lu Jinhu.What is going on, as everyone is concerned.Plus, there is information that has come from the Family Court to you here.It was marked personal and confidential.I opened it in case it was important, and it appears that it is a de facto property settlement, but the signature is not your signature.What do you want me to do? Jodie'
Anna responded 'Jodie. Let everyone know that I am OK.As to what happened with Lu Jinhu I will explain everything when I get back.Can you scan and email me a copy of those orders and let Alfred know I need to talk to him about them, Anna.'
Anna kept working through the documents, and about 15 minutes later, she received another email 'Anna, orders are attached.Alfred is waiting for your email.Jodie.'
Anna paused what she was doing, and opened the attachment, and saw the orders she apparently signed.She immediately knew that this was not her signature.She opened up the chat box with Hou Yi
'Yi, I think I can get Lu Jinhu.For some reason the court orders he used to get all my assets were sent to work.I still have enough time to appeal them'
'Go for it.Is there anything you need from me?'
'I am about to email a colleague, but I am guessing that I will have to go back to Australia earlier than I had planned where I came here'
'Let me know when you need to be back there.I will personally arrange for one of the company planes to take us, rather than having to rely on commercial airlines.Let your employers know you will pay for representation, and I can arrange for funds to be transferred to their trust account for your legal fees.'
'Thanks.Will do.Once I email this colleague I think I have about an hour or so to get through the next batch of documents that we need to deal with.'
"Just let me know when you need to come up, and I will make the time.'
Anna, then turned to her work emails, sent the next email she knew she needed to send.
'Hi Alfred, Jodie emailed me a copy of some Family Law orders received today marked 'Private and Confidential' involving Lu JInhu and me and a break-down of a de facto relationship.Jodie stated that the signature was not mine.This is the first that I have seen these orders. ...
'Please do not, and I stress do not tell anyone this at the moment, that Lu Jinhu admitted when dumping me a couple of days ago, that he had been using me to gain citizenship and had taken all my assets and I could do nothing about it, even though I knew nothing about it. ...
'I need you to immediately lodge an appeal against the orders, with a rush hearing date, so that I can overturn them and stop him taking any more assets than he has out of the country.I'll draft the affidavit in support tonight and email it through to you to review.Let me know how soon you need me back to sign it, and I will do what I can. ...
'I will be paying as a private client for this case and cost it not an issue.Anna.'
While waiting for a response from Alfred, Anna, kept on her task for Hou Enterprises, sending documents to the printer in Hou Yi's office.
About 5 minutes later, she received an email from Alfred 'Hi Anna.Sorry to hear about you and Lu Jinhu.Of course, I will not tell anyone until you need me to, but I am going to need to establish a file, so people will have some idea something is happening.I will get Mr William's permission to limit access to the file to Jodie, Rosemary, Mr Williams, you and me.Once that it done, I will let you know, and you draft the affidavit in the system, and email me once it is done.Just a warning we only have to Tuesday next week to lodge the appeal.Alfred."
Anna immediately replied 'Alfred, Thanks.I will be back Monday so clear your diary, so we can do this.Thanks.Anna'
Anna then opened the chat box with Hou Yi 'Will be up in 45 minutes and can tell you everything.'
