Anna Jones, an Australian travelled with her fiancé Lu Jinhu to marry in his home country, only to find out that she has been duped by him and robbed of everything that she owns.  A quirk of fate allows her to marry CEO Hou Yi, who was meant to on the same day marry his finance Yang Lin, who in fact married Lu Jinhu.  Marriage for Anna, started as a plan to gain some measure of revenge on Lu Jinhu, and for Hou Yi to prevent Lu Jinhu from obtaining the family company however fate had something different in store for them.  Not only did they achieve their initially goals, but their relationship turned into something else, that could last a lifetime despite the cultural differences and the trouble Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin caused them.

Offer to the CEO

Anna turned and saw that Lu Jinhu, was again struggling not to comment about the sentence.  Yang Lin was grabbing him to stop any comment.  She pointed out the reaction to Hou Yi, who could also see what was happening.


The Lu's Lawyer stood up "Sir, while we note that this is the penalty, we intend to appeal the part of the order that sentences Mr Lu to sixteen weeks home detention on the basis that this is excessive.  I understand from speaking to the court this morning that an appeal would be heard within eight weeks, and we would suggest that an appeal date for that point be obtained immediately, however pending that appeal Mr Lu start serving his period of home detention."


Alister stood up "My clients have no objection, although we believe that sixteen weeks is a fair sentence of home detention."


The National Prosecutors lawyer then responded "We agree with Madam Hou and Hou Enterprises lawyer on this point.  It is a sensible course of action."
