Seeing the options, the hair stylist selected the hair clip. Its design matched the simplicity in the dress and did not, despite the gems in it look gaudy.

Hou Yi, however reached into the bag, and pulled out one more box, handing it to Anna. She immediately recognised it as a Pandora Bead Box. Minimal value compared to all the other jewellery but for Anna it was more valuable than the other three pieces combined. When she opened the box, she recognised the charm called "My Beautiful Wife."

"I could not resist this for you."

"Flatter. Will you …"

"Get what I want. I will put it on your bracelet, if that is alright with you."

Anna realised how much he was spoiling her with that one simply gift. To most in the level of society that they interacted with, that one simply item worth what most would consider petty cash was a piece of trash. For Anna though, she knew it was a sign that her husband knew her the best. Despite the other items he had just given her, he knew that money was not was important, it was their relations.h.i.+p and celebrating that constantly.

Hou Yi turned and left the room, having picked up Anna's dress. The stylist however was stunned. Here was a woman who had just been given jewellery worth millions and millions and she was more excited about a ma.s.s-produced item for the lower and middle cla.s.ses, worth almost nothing. Who could understand people like this?

However, rather than saying anything, she quickly started to style Anna's hair, in a simple French twist, carefully securing it in place before sliding the hair clip into place. As she stepped away, the sight of what had to be a custom piece against Anna's hair blew her away. She really wondered if it would work with the dress, but the course was set.

When she was done, she said "Madam Hou, I have finished. I will wait downstairs in case I need to fix anything before you leave."

Anna carefully stood up, and turned before saying "Thank you," before heading back to their suite to finish her makeup and dressing.

As she entered their suite she noticed Hou Yi heading into the ensuite so she headed into the walk-in robe where there was a mirror that she could do her makeup at. As soon as she finished her makeup, she put on the underwear and stockings she was wearing with the dress and moved her shoes and the wrap into the foyer. At that moment Hou Yi walked out of the ensuite dressed in his Tuxedo, holding his jacket and tie in his hands.

He sat them down with Anna's items, and hurried her back into the robe, to help her put on her dress. Before they left the room, Hou YI pulled out three pieces of jewellery for Anna, the earrings and pendant that matched her Wedding rings, and her pandora bracelet, helping her put each on, before handing Anna her wrap and helping her put her shoes on before picking up his Jacket and tie.

As they walked down the stairs, the hair stylist took a quick look and realised that the style was perfect for the dress, and that she needed to do nothing.

One hour later, after leaving their apartment, they reached the hotel where the dinner and auction were being held. As Hou Yi helped Anna out of the car, she quickly became stunned at the constant flas.h.i.+ng form Camera Flashes looking to capture her and Hou Yi together. Who would have thought something as simple as their arrival would have created such a commotion?

As they wandered into the pre-dinner drinks area, Hou Yi quietly asked the wait staff for two non-alcoholic drinks for them, which swiftly arrived. The soon spotted Yao Tan and Amanda who were standing close to where Lu Jingho, his wife, the Yangs and Rong Jingye and his wife were.

Anna and Hou Yi, made their way over to Yao Tan and Amanda, talking to the people who stopped them along the way. Just as they were pa.s.sing Lu Jingho, they overheard the comment "Well look at the trashy w*ore, no sense that she should not show her face here given everything she has done."

Anna and Hou Yi looked at each other realising that just their simple appearance was already messing with them. Anna then noticed the look in Hou Yi's eyes that indicated that he was quite willing to let his wife cross her verbal swords with Lu Jingho and those around him.

Anna slowly turned around and said "W*ore. You must have me confused with someone else." She then stared at those who had been caught up with the police raid.

Anna noticed the silence that had overcome the room. It appeared that everyone wanted to see what happened. She knew that she was happy oblige, and that they would struggle to do anything to her.

"Well we are looking at her."

"CEO Lu, I should have expected the insults from you. If you would like to play the game, I am happy to oblige but you should realise by now you will not win against me."
