501 After The Raid - Part 11

Just before 11am, Anna and Hou Yi walked hand in hand into the police station trying not to be late. They were quickly shown into a room where Yao Tan, Amanda, Snake and Lion were waiting. Along with them was the head of the police investigators and the press officer.

As soon as the door was shut the head of the investigation team spoke, "Thank you CEO and Madam Yao, CEO and Madam Hou, Mr Gan and Mr Mo for being here. Since the raid last night, we have been discussing what we will be advising the public about the investigation. The decision was that we will provide information that you had some involvement in the investigation without providing specifics as presently only sanitised information has been provided to Mr Lu and his legal representatives."

"So far, we have only finalised several victim interviews, to lay ninety different charges. Those include the charges involving Miss Alecia and CEO and Madam Hou. However, within the next few days as more interviews are finalised there will be at least another three or four hundred charges to come, if not more."

"The National Prosecutors Office have already decided that they will oversee the criminal case not only given the large number of potential victims but the abuse of Lu Corporation a.s.sets that have been uncovered. They have indicated that they will work with lawyers to have a few victims represented by a single lawyer, rather than every victim, for the purpose of streamlining the matter. Their comment already made is that they expect that the summary in this matter will amount to hundreds of pages."

"The National Prosecutors Office wanted to bring him before the court straight away but have advised that they need at least a week to get the first batch of charges sorted, and to see if other victims of his will come forward. Mr Lu will be released on strict conditions pending that date. We do not like this, but the reality is trying to get matters right for all victims means that there has to be a balance, particularly as we want to avoid any allegations that the process is being used to supress him."

After a period of discussions, they headed to the location where the press conference was happening, and the situation was laid out.

The press conference commenced right on 12pm and forty-five minutes later, Anna started to feel exhausted, and started to look around discretely for something to sit on. Not being able to observe something easily, she quietly moved to the side and asked a police officer standing to the side for a chair to sit on.

Having observed his wife do this, when she was sitting on the chair that the police officer provided her, Hou Yi leant down and whispered, "Do you need to go?"

Anna looked directly at Hou Yi and shook her head. She was aware of the importance of staying while the police press conference finished as the image otherwise not only would have hurt the case against Lu Jingho but started questions being asked about whether she was pregnant. That was something they did not want to disclose until after their wedding ceremony in Australia.

Five minutes after Anna sat down the police finished their initial remarks to the press. Those members of the press present had seen Anna sit down, and started to throw questions towards her, rather than the police or anyone else present. Anna took a couple of deep breaths, knowing that she was on the borderline of breaking down in tears again before she stood up and walked to the lectern with Hou Yi beside her. She quietly indicated to the police media liaison officer that she would speak to the press.

After a gentle squeeze of her hand by Hou Yi Anna took a couple of deep breaths and started to speak, "Ladies and Gentlemen, to put it politely what has happened in the last twenty-four hours has been a dramatic shock to me. While I knew that my ex-partner was involved on the attack on me, I have now found out his father was also involved. As you can imagine that has made me have to relive those events which were highly traumatic. This is in addition to his subsequent to blackmail and a.s.sault my husband and then to abuse me in front of CEO Yao."

Carefully watching Anna, Hou Yi knew that she was struggling and me carefully wrapped his arm around her waist, not only to rea.s.sure her but send a message to everyone present, his wife was the most important person to him and he did not care who knows it.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
