Offer To The CEO

283 Mid Week Part 5

Wednesday, continued …

Dr Lang continued after James left, "Apologies, I did not think that you would want to talk about the last series of tests.Your brother realised what we were hinting at Madam Hou.We were checking your reproductive system.The number and location of the blows to your abdomen are such we are worried about long term damage.Presently the tests show no issues, but you will have to be monitored for years, particularly if you have difficultly in conceiving in the future."

"I have some discussions with you CEO Hou, now I need to discuss this with both of you.Until the cast comes off Madam Hou\'s leg, the recommendation is that you will have to abstain from s*xual intercourse.We cannot enforce that, but it is a strong recommendation, simply to allow your body to heal Madam Hou."

At that exact moment, the discussion was interrupted by a alert on the computer, which Dr Lang opened and read."We were awaiting blood test results.Some will not come back for a day or two, but the one that has come back, means that we will need be somewhat careful."

"What are you meaning?"

"Before you leave, we need to take a couple of more blood samples, and undertake another ultrasound, as we have to check something."

"Doctor, what is going on with my wife?"

"CEO Hou, Madam Hou, one blood test result that has come back indicates you may be pregnant Madam Hou.It would be in the early stages.We need to take another sample and perform an ultrasound to see if we can any early signs of a fetus.It all may be inconclusive if it is early.Until we have confirmation either way, not only will we continue to perform blood tests, but will proceed carefully until we have the confirmation."

"That takes me back to my previous point, it now is doubly important that you do not have s*xual intercourse, as there will be even more risks to the pregnancy.Also, at about 10 weeks, if it is true, we will need to start doing tests, some of which are normal in a pregnancy to screen for genetic conditions, but also to further screen that the assault did not impact the fetus\'s development."

Hou Yi and Anna looked at each other, in shock.The possibility of a child, who could only have been conceived on the night before or the day of the assault, and survived.

Dr Lang realised the look on both their faces."Do not get ahead of yourselves, we may be a couple of weeks until we have a confirmation either way."He then stood up, and opened the door, inviting James back in, and quietly arranged for him to return with Anna for a couple of more tests.

Dr Lang turned back to CEO Hou "Your wife will have further blood tests, a urine test and a Ultrasound focusing on here uterus area to see if we can get an answer.We may not have results until tomorrow, and they may not be conclusive, but as soon as they are in I will let you both know.They will take at least 20 minutes and I will arrange for radiology to direct them to your car."

With that Dr Lang, left the room, and Hou Yi\'s mobile rang.He answered the phone, noticing that the call was from Yao Tan "What do you want Tan?"

"Yi, settle down, what are you and your wife doing tonight?"

"Why?"

"Well I need to organise a dinner with you, I have something to tell you.I know your wife knows, but tell her to keep the secret, and I will tell you."

"We were having dinner with the family, and then staying at the Ancestral house.We Should be able to change that.Where is dinner then?"

"My apartment, say 7pm."

"Tan, I need to confirm and when I do I will let you know.It should not be an issue."

"Yi, what is going on?"

"We are at the hospital for tests, following up …"

"OK I get it, you need to be available.See you then."

With that Yao Tan ended the call, and Hou Yi wondered what was going on.

Hou Yi headed down towards the foyer, and he received a message that Anna was finishing off the tests.The bodyguard arranged for the car to be brought up and as it pulled up Anna and James into the foyer.They headed back to the Ancestral Home and on their return Anna headed to lay down.After speaking to his mother Hou Yi conformed tea with Yao Tan, and worked from the Study until waking Anna at 5pm, for their dinner appointment.
