579 Lu Jingho, Out of Control? - Part 4
Wednesday
Given the actions of Lu Jingho over the last twenty-four hours, Tang Din was grateful that he did not have his or his wife's personal mobile numbers.?Apparently ever since his wife's press conference yesterday, Lu Jingho had been constantly telephoning her office, being highly aggressive and abusive.
The interesting thing was a call from Lu Corporation after they had processed his resignation letter and heard his wife's press conference.?While there was disappointment in him leaving, given his stated reason was that he would become a stay-at-home parent, while his wife pursued her business, they realised that they could do nothing.?The call also indicated Lu Corporation, provided he was not seen to be highly active in his wife's business would not pursue him for breaches of his contract on leaving.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click .Comfor visiting.
The interesting thing was that he was looking forward to spending significant time with their children.?It was not until he had spent the day with, they yesterday that he had realised how much he had missed of their lives simply through putting his career first.?That, given the actions of Lu Jingho was something he was not proud of.
When the dust finally settled from Lu Jingho's criminal proceedings, Tang Din wondered how he would explain his involvement to his children.?Simply telling them he did not know would not be appropriate.?He should have realised to some extent what his boss was doing and the harm that it caused to the artists that he had a responsibility for.
That realisation came on the back of the detailed discussions with his wife on Monday night when the children had gone to bed.?Yes, he knew she wanted to return to the workforce, and had been fully supportive of his decision to quit and become the primary carer for their children, but little had he known about what she had been doing.
While they had spoken about her starting an artist management company over the weekend, the discussion they had Monday night when he confirmed his resignation from Lu Corporation was a surprise.?She told him that over the last, almost twelve months, with a friend they had quietly established their own artist management company and were going to take it public the following day at a press conference.?As she said, she knew what is was like when an Artist was betrayed and harmed by a manager, and their company but with this business she was determined to ensure that the artists that were managed by it were protected.
The other thing she told him, was that a cousin of her friend who was present when Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin attached Madam Hou at her request had looked at his employment contract and found the out clause for him and given them written advice.?As he read the advice, it made it clear that after being away from Lu Corporation for more than three months he would be able to then step in and help in the business, either on a part-time of full-time basis.
As the advice explained, as his employment contract had not been renewed by Lu Corporation when it expired, his employment became governed by the general employment law, which meant that his income could not be lowered however at the same time the restrictions contained in that non-renewed contract could not be enforced.?That meant that the general restrictions could only apply, restricting him for that three-month period.
Whether he wanted to help, after that time expired, was something that they had decided they would look at in the future.?For him, he just wanted to concentrate on repairing the relationship with his wife and children that had been damaged the pursuit of his career.
His wife, however, never blamed him, and she worked hard to ensure that he could escape Lu Corporation with as much dignity that he could.?Leaving, should protected them as best as he could, as they were now his number one priority, and everything else came after that.
He was also grateful, that when he spoke to CEO Hou on Monday, and again yesterday, he agreed to take both calls.?Importantly CEO Hou made it clear yesterday when they spoke after his wife's press conference that Hou Enterprises and the joint venture they had established with XF International would not target her company.?He also said that he would talk to CEO Yao about XF International not targeting her company as well.
