FridayAnna, when she awoke was nervous about heading to court. She had succ.u.mbed to Hou YI and his pleading both days to take the days easy, spending only a half day at her desk and the rest of the day in the suite attached to his office. Every time, she stopped and looked at what he was doing, it was clear that her husband was deeply busy, and while she wanted to disturb him, she could easily pick up he needed to concentrate on things.
However today, was nerve racking, despite her background. The press demands for statements, according to a.s.sistant w.a.n.g yesterday was significant. Hou Enterprises Public relations team had been inundated by requests for additional photographs and interviews, and between him and Jodie they had been struggling to deal with everything.
As the car slowed up on its way to let them off outside the courthouse Anna turned to Hou Yi and said, "This will be worse than anything before."
"Anna, do not worry. The bodyguards will keep people away and given all the demands for interviews and the like that a.s.sistant w.a.n.g has been dealing with, I have arranged for a press conference to satisfy them. Today is about the criminal case, and that you can handle in your sleep." With that Hou Yi leant over and gave Anna s kiss, just as the car was coming to a stop.
As one of the bodyguards opened the door, reluctantly Hou Yi pulled away from the kiss with Anna, and paused for a few seconds to compose himself. That brief kiss, he knew had aroused him, and it would be totally embarra.s.sing getting out of the car, with an e*ection.
Anna looked at Hou Yi and opened her mouth to speak but realised the problem. She quickly slipped off her jacket and said "I am sorry my love, but carry this for me, and you can use it ..."
"Anna!" said a shocked Hou Yi.
"Well, it is either that or we have to sit here for a period of time for it to subside, and I do not think the authorities would appreciate that," said Anna with a laugh.
Hou Yi chuckled and realised his wife was right. She had given him an option and rather than wearing his suit jacket, he slipped that off as well, and holding both slipped out of the car, before carefully helping Anna out. As they started to move towards the courthouse, surrounded by the bodyguards, there was a barrage of questions being thrown at them, not only about the court case, but their wedding and the unconfirmed statements about Anna being pregnant.
As they reached the courthouse steps, Hou Yi signalled to the bodyguards to take Anna inside, while he briefly spoke to the media. It was the last thing that he wanted, but hopefully it will make the rest of the day easier. Anna, however, before she entered, reached up and gave Hou Yi a kiss on the cheek, and turned away with a knowing smile on her face.
As she did this, Hou Yi knew that he would make his wife pay for this teasing, but he had heard a couple of nasty questions about their child"s parentage that he did not want Anna to have to deal with. Getting on top of those would be necessary for Anna"s piece of mind.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"Ladies and Gentlemen of the press, I will be making a brief statement before heading in." Hou Yi paused and noticed that most of the press had not seen Yao Tan and Amanda were also heading into the courthouse.
"My wife and I take afront to those questions regarding the parentage of our child. I will say this once, and once only. The child that she is carrying is my child. If we hear this being repeated, we will be taking legal action. We will not warn you further."
"Secondly, we note that you are all clamouring for more photographs and an interview post our wedding. We will have a general press conference but have decided to offer one exclusive interview as well. It is up to you, the press to determine the value of that interview. offering an exclusive interview."
"However, before anyone"s says anything all the money paid for that interview will be given to charity. Twenty-five percent to the charitable initiative started by Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin for services to a.s.sist children with mental illness, as these children need help. We will not let our issues impact that important work."
"Fifty percent will go to our charitable initiative with the remaining twenty five percent will be distributed by Hou Enterprises to worthwhile charities in our city who have already applied to us for a.s.sistance, expanding those who we will help."
