YM778.TV Chapter 703: Christening - Part 3
703 Christening - Part 3
Sunday, continued …
At the sound, everyone inside the church turned and saw Meredith Jones and an older man force their way just inside the church.? Hou Yi\'s bodyguards quickly moved in to prevent them getting closer to everyone inside the church.? Anna, James, their siblings and importantly Stan Hones immediately realised who was with Meredith, her father.
Anna quickly signalled to one of the bodyguards to call the police as of the disruption, and James knowing of the intervention orders Alecia and his father had against his mother and Anna against their grandfather, he telephoned the police to explain the breaches that were occurring.
Anna in seeing her grandfather, was scared what he would do, given his actions the last time they were in the same room together, and while gathering little Jang into her arms she carefully picked up Aaron\'s ashes and moved into Hou Yi\'s arms.? That was safe.? Hou Yi, in observing Anna\'s reactions knew that there was something going on, and further motioning to the bodyguards, they moved to shield them, his parents and everyone else.
Meredith seeing the bodyguards preventing her getting close to the ceremony started screaming about how rude it was to exclude her as the baby\'s grandmother from being there.? With her father they then started yelling about how wrong the christening was, how it should have been and about the total inappropriateness of the godparents.? After a couple of seconds her grandfather then added Ann had no choice as he was the one who should dictate what happened as his great-grandson would be leaving immediately with him as no one present other than him could determine what was right for him.? He then started to move towards Anna.
To everyone it was clear that he intended to snatch Little Jang from her arms, but the bodyguards moved quickly to grab him before he could get too close to everyone.? Seeing what her grandfather was doing, Anna started to shake in Hou Yi\'s arms, and Phillipa observing Anna was scared moved in quickly to firstly take Aaron\'s ashes and then Jang from her arms for Hou Yi could draw her in closer to comfort her.
A few minutes later the police arrived, and James having been wary that both his mother and grandfather would show up to cause trouble today pulled out copies of Alecia, Stan and Anna\'s intervention orders and showed them to the police, who quickly arrested them and removed them from the church.? The remaining police officer quietly said "We need you to please come to the police station to make statements about what happened."
Hearing this, Anna quickly shifted from being scared about what was about to happen, into being what she was trained to be, a lawyer.? "Absolutely, but we need to finish here and have one other matter to see to before we can come."
"And you are?"
"In the order, I believe you have a copy of my name will be Anna Jones, but I have married and now it is Anna Hou.? We need to finish the christening of one of my son\'s, and we intend to spread the ashes of the other that died just after his birth.? Can you wait until after that?"
Anna could see the conflict on the police officer\'s face, but the shock of the fact that they would be dealing with the ashes of an infant was something he was not expecting.? Anna continued "We are not avoiding this, but as an officer of the court I can promise you we will come and make statements once we have done that."
Hearing Anna\'s statement the shock moved from the police officer and he said, "And you work where?"
"I am employed by ANX Lawyers in Melbourne but currently am on secondment overseas.? We are here because I grew up in Warrnambool.? I can put you on contact with the senior partners of ANX if you wish to clarify my employment."
"If you can get there as soon as possible please, we would appreciate it as we have to determine what is to happen."
Seeing that he was not going to move Anna the police officer reluctantly left the church, and the minister finished the Christening ceremony, before they all headed out to the cemetery to place half of Aaron\'s ashes in the niche wall at the Warrnambool Cemetery.? While Anna had wanted to spread the ashes on the property, as her father had said, they may sell the property in the future and this would make it difficult for anyone to continue to pay their respects to Aaron, but placing them at the cemetery would mean that they had somewhere they could always go.
After finishing that short ceremony, everyone headed towards the police station to make the statements that the police would need.? Having paid attention to the officer\'s names on entering the police station Anna requested to speak to the officer who remained behind.? When the police realised the number of people to take statements from, they were shocked.? Initially the police wanted to only take a minimal number of statements and obtain further statements when required but realising the number of overseas people they knew the statements needed to be taken then.
While others started to make their statements to the police, Anna asked one of the bodyguards to grab her laptop, which for some unknown reason today she had them place in the car, from the car, and sat starting to type up her statement, to save time.? Hou Yi sat with her, and once she finished her statement, she started working on his Statement, before emailing both to the police officer for printing and signing.
As they were leaving the police station, what happened today finally sank in for Anna.? She could not believe her mother, ruining little Jang\'s Christening as she was angry about not being invited.
