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

Once they had left the courtroom and where shown into a private room for their discussions, Anna turned around and looked at everyone in the room until the door had been shut.

As soon as the door was shut, Anna spat out "How dare he do this. What gives him …"

Amanda, put her hand on Anna's arm to calm her down. Hou Yi, when he rang them this morning pleaded with them to keep her as calm as possible. He had explained to them the worry about Anna getting too stressed out given her collapse the previous weekend and its risk to her pregnancy. As Hou Yi had told them the risk was that too much stress could result in a miscarriage, and that Anna would not cope with that.

Anna turned at Amanda's hand on her arm and looked at her friend, who quietly said "Anna calm down, the last thing you need is …"

Still wound up, Anna spat back "Do not tell me to calm down …"
