611 Another Friday, Another Court day - Part 6
Friday, continued …
Anna immediately replied "Last night. James was telling me he has only a week left of placement before he finishes. He has submitted his registration paperwork, and all that will be finalised by the time of his graduation at the beginning of December, just over 4 weeks away. Alecia, will have completed her end of year exams, and apparently they intend to have an early Christmas with my family before arriving back on about the 15th of December."
"True. The builders have just about finished our wedding present for them. They intend to have the apartment painted in the next week, and Alecia has already sent the decorator details of what she wants in the apartment. Tan, she asked me to arrange for most of her personal items to be taken to the apartment before they arrive back."
Yao Tan, still smarting from the fact that Hou Yi was giving his daughter and son-in-law an apartment below his "Yi, you know how annoyed I am at you for doing this …"
"Tan, Alecia is my goddaughter and I wanted to do something for her and my brother-in-law."
"Do not tell me that, it should have been me…"
Amanda, having heard the next part of his argument time and time again since Hou Yi told her husband what he was doing "Tan, stop this. We have talked about this time and time again. Do not try and push Alecia and James to throw back this gift in Hou Yi and Anna's face. I would suspect, that given Anna is by the time James arrives back going to be six months pregnant, will be happy for the support of her brother, a qualified nurse. As I told you, put your money into helping the Boss man decorate the apartment for them."
"Amanda, do not …"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click .Comfor visiting.
Amanda now angry "Tan, no. We will not go over this. Be damn well sensible, and consider our daughter and son-in-law, or if not, I will talk to your parents. You know their position on this as they clearly told you to grow up and stop being a spoilt child over the point."
Hou Yi and Anna watching the interaction could not help but to laugh at the look of Yao Tan being told off by Amanda. Finally getting that he was being childish and had been called on it. "Just you two wait …"
"Well my parents-in-law love me," sweetly said Anna.
Hou Yi added "They do, more than the love their son I would guess now. Tan, do not worry, Alecia and I feel the same about our in-laws, we love Stan when he is not influenced by Meredith, but only tolerate her."
"Boss Man, I think you have that wrong. Alecia has had enough of your mother-in-law's behaviour when the broke into the house last week. She over-rode James and has had her charged."
"What!" spat our Anna. "Neither of them told us that."
"Well you know Alecia loves me. Your mother Anna decided last week that she had enough of Alecia and James spending little time with her, and came to their house before forcing open the door and when they arrived home pushing Alecia out of the way before telling James to dump and divorce her."
"What Alecia tells me is James told her enough was enough. They had been respecting her and her opinions, but she had no right to force her opinion on them or control them. She turned and told Alecia to get the hell out of, what your mother called it, her house. That made Alecia and James see red. James had the bodyguards assigned to watch Alecia escort her out of the house and told her that she was not welcome there unless she was invited."
"James the following day was on the afternoon shift, and Alecia came home from school. She was blindsided by your mother and pushed into a wall. That was enough for her and the police were called, and she was taken away and charged. She was, according to what I was told going to fight the charges but was convinced to plead guilty. What they tell me is that the, judge …"
"Actually Amanda, it would be a magistrate, but they are a court decision maker…"
"The Magistrate then, did was give them something they called an intervention order to keep your mother away from them, and she got something they called a Corrections Order."
"Damn, I know mum has no criminal priors, so that was in the charges must have been serious for that as a penalty."
"I would not know. Alecia, however, was telling me that they are looking forward to leaving. They cannot put up with your mother Anna, but I gathered that they will miss the rest of the family."
"That will likely be the case. I miss everyone other than her, and I am talking, or videoconferencing with them day after day, as I do not want to lose contact despite the distance."
Before anyone could say anything else, Hou Yi's mobile rang, and it was Assistant Wang advising him of the need to return to the office. Hou Yi looked at everyone, and Amanda, decided that she would accompany Anna and Hou Yi back to Hou Enterprises for the balance of the working day.
As they were leaving, arrangements were made to catch up after Hou Yi and Anna returned from Europe.
