As Hou Yi . Yao Tan and James re-entered the reception room the noticed three women gathered, looking extremely angry at the three of them . They looked at each other and realised that they would not be able to avoid their wives and walked over to them .

Each of them grabbed their husbands and pulled them away to talk to them in depth, although for Anna, it was a difficult task . Hou Yi realised that she wanted to talk to him and followed her to a quiet area of the room . "Sweetheart . "

"Do not sweetheart me, what in the world were you up to?"

Hou Yi, realised that his wife was extremely annoyed with him, and it might not be pleasant when they arrived back at their apartment tonight . "Anna, I saw how you were reacting when you spotted him . "

"Yi it is a free world . No matter how annoyed that I am he has a right to be here . "

"Anna, I could see from half way across the room that you were shaking . All I wanted to do was have a word with him . James and Tan came out with me to make sure nothing happened . All we did was tell him, to go away, and stop trying to intimidate you . "

"Do not try and convince me that you are telling the truth . I saw James get very close to him and punch his fist in his hand, you were threatening him . "

"All James did was tell him to leave you alone and said that he would face something worse than simply a punch, if he ever thought about following his son and hurting you . He also warned him to stay away from his wife, since he was also staring at Alecia, and he was worried that she would notice it and react . All he wants for her today it to enjoy her birthday party . "

"Yi, do not try and turn it on my brother . You started the confrontation . "

"Sweetheart …" Hou YI lent down to give Anna a kiss, but she turned her head to the side .

"No Yi do not think that that will make me less mad at the moment . Now help me over to a chair . "

Hou YI took a look at Anna and knew that he was going to have to do a lot to make it up to her . She was extremely disappointed that he had been involved in intimidation of CEO Lu .

Anna however was trying extremely hard to keep a smile off her face . While she hated the fact that they had intimidated CEO Lu, given it was about protecting her and Alecia, she had absolutely no problems . Anna was realistic that he was an enabler of Lu Jinhu's behaviour, including his treatment of her, so if he can be intimidated into behaving, then she was all with it .

Meanwhile in two separate other s.p.a.ces in the room Alecia and Amanda were also giving their husbands a telling off for their behaviour .

The three men, once their views have finished telling them off all looked at each other, realising that they would have to do a lot to get back into their wives' good graces .

Junior and Ton, however watched what was happening . They had seen their father, Hou Yi and James outside surrounding CEO Lu . While they knew what Lu Jinhu was, CEO Lu had always been nice to them and treated them with respect, unlike many of the other business elites who surrounded their father . They tolerated them but had no respect .

They quietly stood talking to each other and realised that they knew a way that they could make this whole d.a.m.n party about them, rather than having to share the day with their sister and father . It was no fun . Alecia's close friends were stuck up, and other than being polite and tolerating them for Alecia's sake, ignored them and all their friends, despite how nice they were to them .

Seeing if they could locate CEO Lu and invite him in would be fun to watch reactions of Alecia and their father, and the spotlight would be where it needed to be, particularly given that it was spreading around those who were there that Alecia was married .

Melissa had been standing behind the boys and heard their discussion . She looked around to locate Their father and walked quickly across the room while they were still talking about their plan and informed him what she had heard .
