361 The Extent of Wickedness - Part 16 (1/2)

Thursday continued ….

At Hou Enterprises

As James was heading over to Yao Tan's apartment, Hou Yi received a call from Anna.

”Yi…” came the one word from Anna, and he knew immediately something was wrong.

”Sweetheart, what is it?”

”Darling, you would not believe it.That b*stard …”

”Your ex I am presuming.He has no access to the outside world, so what has he done?We need to call the police?”

”Yi, when he was over here around Christmas time last year …”

”He was.I remember seeing him in passing at the function where Alecia was...S*it you are telling me he did that to that lovely little girl?”

”She told the police he was involved, along with his father.There was also a third unknown person present.”

”I should have killed him last night.”

”Yi, that solves nothing.Alecia would only talk it James and I were present.She claimed to the police James was her boyfriend and sat with him for the whole interview.James is so angry with me, for bringing Lu Jinhu into our lives and what he did.I blame myself.”Anna burst out crying on the other end of the line.

”Anna do not blame yourself.Despite the age difference I guess James feels a need to protect Alecia, and will blame everyone given that simple reason.He is growing up, and I guess he figured out what Lu Jinhu had been doing to you but felt he could do nothing to protect you.He now feels he can protect Alecia as he wants to do that.”
