With Jodie's help, Anna was working intently in her Hou Enterprises office on the talk she had agreed to give to at the local university to Law students when they were disturbed by Anna's mobile ringing.

As she picked it up, she noticed it was Hou Yi calling "Darling, what is it?"

"Can you come up to my office?"

"Why are you being secretive? Why did you not message me or call on the internal phone system?"

"It is about that special project."

"What special Proje …" Anna then realised exactly what he was meaning. "I am a.s.suming the same place? What time?"

"Yes and in ten minutes. I knew that you were busy, so I left letting you know until the last minute. Everyone else knows and should be here soon."

"See you then."

After she ended the call, Anna turned to Jodie "Could you please finish editing this for me and collate the resources we discussed for me to make available to the students. I need to head to Yi's office and will be gone for a while."

"Boss, you have to ask. Now go, or your husband will kill me." The smirk on Jodie's face made Anna realise that Jodie expected that she was going to Yi's office for a s*xual encounter. How Anna wished that was the case, rather than being about bringing down Lu Jingho.

As Anna walked out of her office, Amanda exited her office as well and the two of them quickly headed to the meeting room on the CEO's floor. Walking into the board room they found, Yao Tan, Lion, Snake and the additional men involved with the investigation. Hou Yi with three police officers including Officer Mu followed them in.

The more Senior of them spoke "I hate to have disrupted everyone's day, but matters are moving quickly and we owe you an update. You all know about the raid in the warehouse district on a warehouse owned by Lu Corporation. That had been on our radar for months before what you are involved in was brought to our attention.

"We had information about illegal gambling and liquor consumption outside the terms of the license they had for a private dinner club. You also know about the information released publicly about he s*xual activities we found going on in the private rooms. The activities Madam Lu, Madam Yang, Madam Rong and Rong Jingye were engaged in in various rooms were claimed to be consensual."

"However, in the last two days those artists servicing them finally admitted they were blackmailed into performing s*xual activities there for relief on the debt that the owe Lu Corporation and their entertainment division. There were others involved in activities in other rooms that we did not release publicly as it does not suit the investigation that you are involved in."

"From those who admitted the truth, we have started to develop a clear picture of the connections." With that a chart was spread out on the table for everyone to look at. "This is what we have been able to piece together from that investigation and the information that you have provided us. It is only the tip of the iceberg, and we suspect that it will still be added to."

"As to this illegal brothel, there are no underage artists, but we have determined that on Friday, Sat.u.r.day and Sunday nights the rooms are constantly in use by artists publicly dumped by Lu Corporation's entertainment division as a means to service the debt that they apparently owe the company."

"At this club, they start working in the public areas where they earn some money to service their debt but are approached to take a different role that will allow them to pay the debt off quicker through providing private host services to guests at the club. Those who accessed the services were in the know and had paid large amounts of money simply for the purposes of having access. Services were additional, and both male and female artists provided them to male or female club members."

"They quickly determined that the private services were about providing s*xual services in the rooms, and once they crossed that line, the fact that they had already done it was used to blackmail them into continuing on the path they forced them into."

"However' for these artists there looks like there is some positivity to their actions. When they lose appeal in the club their entertainment career gets a boost, but they are then blackmailed to keep quiet about the club or evidence would be released about them being s*x workers, which would completely destroy their careers."

"After the raid, those present have made the decision they do not care about their careers, hence their cooperation with us. We need that kept quiet presently, as we are using their information to contact others that have been trapped in the same situation. Those still in the entertainment industry want to keep their careers, so we are cooperating in that at present.

"Interestingly some started as victims at the illegal underage brothels. That has given us more information. Most importantly what we have found out Lu Jingho established the club twenty years ago with the a.s.sistance of his father. Lu Corporation gave a leave to private company and on the surface, we could not see a connection. But when we started in depth investigations, we found out the truth about the club's establishment."

"Everything on the surface looked good. A private club properly licensed to provide meals and sell alcohol to its members with private rooms that those who had over indulged could sleep the effects of the night off. It was those licenses that allowed them to slip under the radar for so many years. The thing that brought it to our attention was the illegal gambling activities which we only confirmed three days before we executed the raid."
