Offer to the CEO

Saturday

When Anna awoke Saturday morning, she found herself in Hou Yi's arms.While she knew how amazing the outcome could be, given her injury it was surprising that he was willing to stay all night in the same bed with her, let alone sleep.She knew in hospital, even though he started the night in the same bed when she was allowed to sleep in a normal bed with her he always got up some time during the night and left her.

Anna knew how nice this was.It was dreamlike to her.Here she was in bed with a man who, not only treated her like a princess, his queen, but was willing to do whatever was necessary to ensure that she happy and safe, despite there being some problems in that to date.She understood he could be ruthless when required, she knew that when it come down to it in her personal life he would always consider her needs and wants, and try help her achieve her dreams.

That was so much a contrast to how her relationship was with that b**tard, Lu Jinhu.It was always about him, his wants desires and needs.She came at the bottom of the pile when anything has to be considered.She just wished that she had realised what Lu Jinhu was like before now and gotten rid of him.She could have had a different life.

That however stopped Anna in her tracks.If she had ditched Lu Jinhu in the past, she would never have ended here.Yes, heartbreak, and ongoing psychological issues that are always going to have some impact, but which Phillipa believes she has generally addressed since admitting what happened to her.The physical injuries will repair themselves eventually to.However she has ended up with Hou Yi, a person who has simply enriched her life.Whether he was who he is or had no money would not matter, it is the person he is.

It was in that exact moment she realised that how she felt had a name.It was something that, she had to admit to herself, despite the length of their relationship and engagement she never felt for Lu Jinhu.She deeply and truly loved Hou Yi.She could imagine a life for them, not just now, but long into the future.

A happy and fulfilling marriage with children and grandchildren, all of whom they love and spoiled but not to the point they were arrogant and self-centered.They would be like Hou Yi, loving, caring, determined, but ruthless when they needed to be, but it being done in such a way that never took away from their true selves..

Anna then realised, there was no way at this time that she could tell him how she felt.She did not want him to feel obliged to her.It had to be his decision what happened, as in reality she knew that she had trapped him into this marriage.She made him feel obliged to help him.

Anna knew that all she could do was be there, give him every opportunity to make a decision about their relationship and only when he was ready to admit how she felt about him.

Anna, looked at the clock on the wall and noticed that it was 8am.Having discussed it with Rosemary, she knew that they would have until 9am, before Rosemary would allow them to be disturbed.

Anna, noticed in his sleep Hou Yi had turned his head, so she had access to his lips right beside her.She moved over slightly, and gently touched her lips to his.As soon as they hit, Anna realised how perfect this moment was for her.Here she was, kissing the man that she was willing to admit to herself that she loved, and would sacrifice everything for.The only thing that would make it even better was that Hou Yi was in love with her.

Hou Yi, however had been simply laying beside his wife not wanting to disturb her.How he wished that it was a perfect day, in that she was in love with him and they could totally enjoy this quite time together with each other.Whether or not anything happened that did not matter.

As soon as she touched her lips to his, Hou Yi opened his eyes, looking at his bride who was so focused.It was gentle, but so full of something, but he could not put his finger on what it.However, she quickly deepened the kiss and it blew any thoughts of anything out of his mind, all he could do was indulge in the passion that was in their kiss.

The next thing that either of them knew was a knock on the door, and Rosemary on the other side calling out, "OK you two I am coming in."

They quickly pulled apart and ensured that Anna's pajamas were closed up together.They both knew how much their kissing had aroused the other.Hou Yi on opening the door made a quick escape into the bathroom, to deal with the outcome of their passionate kissing.
