Offer To The CEO-Chapter 4: More disasters
4 More disasters
After refusing the money thrown at her feet by Yang Lin, Anna Jones was responded to with the harsh reply from Lu Jinhu "You better, as that is all you will ever get from me.As I said that is all the money you have".
Given that the past few minutes had demonstrated Jinhu's intention to ensure she had nothing, Anna had second thoughts and decided that he might be telling the truth, and that the small sum thrown at her feet would be the only money she had to see her get home with, and to try and rebuild her life.She bent back down and picked up the money on the ground. 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m
Anna lifted her head and stared at the six people that had just shattered all her dreams.She was determined to walk away from here with some pride and dignity in tack."You might have ruined what was my world, but you will receive what is coming to you some time in the future, maybe not from me, but from someone.I just hope that I am around to see it."
"Get away you b**th, you are not wanted or needed.And by the way do not try and threaten us or I will make your life even worse than it is now," stated Jinhu with confidence, indicating that he knew that he was in complete control of the situation.
"So be it.Remember my words, I know that you will get what is coming to you, and I am now determined to see it.By the way I wish you no happiness since you have shattered mine."With than, Anna turned away, stuffed cash in her handbag, clutched the ticket in her hands, and with tears really streaming down her face lifted her head up high, straightened up her shoulders and walked at a steady pace away from the vicious pack that had destroyed her in a few minutes.She wanted to send the message to them, you can do what you have done, but you will not destroy me through her body language, despite feeling devastated and destroyed on the inside.
With a steady pace, Anna kept moving across the plaza in front of the Civil Administration Bureau, without looking back.She could hear Jinhu, Yang Lin and they parent's voices that sounded happy and joyful but without making out the words.She could not focus on what was around her, due to how she felt inside.Everything was a blur, and if there were any people around her, she did not see them.She made her way towards the nearest building that would give her an exit from the plaza, so she did not have to be near them, and could collapse and try and deal with what had just happened.
She rounded the corner, and still was not paying attention to anything around her.She must have been six to eight steps around the corner and bumped into someone without realising it.The force not only knocked her to the ground but the person she had bumped into as well.
"Watch where you are going.People do not need to be knocked to the ground by people not paying attention, like you just did," came a quick sharp statement from the person who Anna had just knocked to the ground.
This shock Anna from some trance like state that she was in.She noticed that she was on the ground and the man that had just spoken, for some reason was partially on top of her.She could not figure out what had happened.His statement though indicated that she must have played some part in them getting there.Little did she realise at that moment the story she would have to tell her future children and grandchildren about.
In looking at the face of the woman that he was partially on top of, he realised that the woman had no knowledge of what had just occurred.He softened his face a little and indicated "You where not paying attention and knocked us to the ground."
Anna realised that she had just stumbled into another disaster and coming so quickly on the heels of the first she was uncertain how she would manage it.
