Offer To The CEO

55 Going Power Shopping - Part 1

Hou Yi, as he left the master suite instructed the maid standing just outside the door "See what assistance my wife needs, then leave her in peace, until after she has left with my mother and aunt before you clean up."

With that Hou Yi, walked down the stairs and exited the apartment to head to Hou Enterprises Head Office.The Maid stepped into the room, and inquired "Young Madam, is there anything that I can do for you?"

"I know it is lazy of me, but could you please go in and of the few items of clothing that I have put together an outfit, with shoes for me to go shopping with my husband\'s mother and aunt, and then place them in the bathroom for me.Further, could you also please arrange for another coffee for me, white two sugars.Thank you."

"No problem, Young Madam," replied the maid.As she was organising the clothes for Anna, not only did she think she was lazy, but that she was nothing like Miss Yang, who the staff all thought was going to become their mistress.For the maid, Miss Yang, on the few times that she had been in the apartment, was really nice to her and all the staff except Butler Ge as we were trying to help her gain access to the Master Suite, but were thwarted by Butler Ge.She personally could not see an issue, as Miss Yang was set to become their mistress, but Butler Ge said the rules were the rules.She wondered if she could help Miss Yang take her revenge on this woman who took her place but realised that doing something now would cause her to lose her job.So, she did what she asked.

Anna, once she finished her first cup of coffee, put the cards carefully away, went into the bathroom, showered and changed.When she returned to the room, all the food, other than the coffee had been removed, and her handbag was sitting on the table next to the coffee.She sat down, and while drinking the coffee, added all her contacts into the new phone.She sent a bulk email and text to all her contacts, to advise them of her new contact number, explaining that she had a new phone and number.

Just after she finished that, Butler Ge, knocked on the door, "Young Madam, First Madam and Second Madam are here to collect you.I understand from the Young Master that you are going shopping."

"Thank You Butler Ge."

As she walked out the door, Butler Ge stopped her "Young Madam, while you are shopping, hand these cards to the shops and ask them to deliver your purchases.It will make things easier for you."

As she walked down the stairs, Anna, saw Hou Yi\'s mother Du AnLing and aunt Deng Xi waiting for her "Mother, Aunt, so nice to see you."

They both piped up "Hi Sweetheart."Du AnLing then continued "Did my son tell you how we are to fund today\'s shopping?"

"Mother, Aunt, he has given me a couple of cards, so I can buy what is needed.He has also said that the bodyguards he has assigned to me, have some cash for small purchases as well."

The older woman looked at each other gleefully, realising they had money to shop, then at Anna."We will have great fun and can purchase among the items some complementary outfits for the three of us."

"Mother, Aunt, before we get started, Yi made it very clear to me that I am only to purchase what I want, and more importantly I was not to purchase anything for either of you, except food and drink.He told me that if I did, he would put me on a monthly spending limit."

"Do not worry, we can deal with that."However both of them sounded quite disappointed as they had believed that Anna would help them purchase a few items they could not given the breaks put on their spending ability.

With that the three women, entered the elevator and went down to the car park.As they arrived, Anna remembered one thing she was told to do.She went up to the security desk at the car park level, and spoke to the person on duty "Hello, My name is Anna Hou, I am Hou Yi\'s wife.He said to me that when I came down I needed to arrange for a thumb print scan to operate some of the locks within our home."

The guard on the desk, who had been ignoring Anna to that point, jumped to his feet."Young Madam, I will get the head of security for you."

Before he could even knock on the door, someone walked out of the office, "Young Madam, if you come this way I will immediately arrange for that scan, and it should be operational on your return.Anna followed her into the office, where scanning her thumb print took all of a few seconds, and she was shown back out.

She soon joined Du AnLing and Leng Xi, who were standing beside a car with two other people, who looked like the bodyguards assigned to her.

Du AnLing spoke "Anna, we have spoken to your body guards, and determined that the best starting point today is M Mall.There is the widest variety of shops, and we should be able to get most items there for you.I have not been there for a few months, but there are so many top labels that should be able to cater for us.We cannot wait."Anna could almost see Du AnLing and Leng Xi rubbing their hands together.

With that they all climbed into the car, with the two bodyguards in front, and drove to M Mall.
