She Is A CEO

"Okay, Arthur will be discharged from the hospital in three days. I will return then. By the way, would you like to meet your grandson?" Sophie's faint smile appeared on her face only when she mentioned Theodore. Last time Edwin didn't see Theodore as expected. In a few days, the school started its winter vacation. Sophie intended to bring Theodore to show her husband.

"I want to see him! Bring my grandson back!" Edwin was never surprised by anything, but his emotions perked up when he heard about his grandson.

"Alright, alright..." Sophie smiled slightly and agreed.

During his stay in hospital, Arthur's injuries recovered at a rapid pace. The nourishment of love worked better than any drugs. Even doctors felt it amazing that these injuries can heal really fast... and credit, naturally, was in Lucia.

Lucia, because of the guilt she felt towards Arthur, took care of him in every way. Even when Arthur could stand up and wash himself, she still spoiled him by helping him to fetch water to wash up. And the water she took was warm.

Usually, Arthur pampered Lucia, but this time he was cared by Lucia once. Arthur was addicted to it, and often shouted in pain deliberately. Seeing that Lucia was worried about him, he was happy. Even if he was found to be deliberate later and encountered Lucia's revenge, he was also willing to do so.

Being pushed away once, Arthur, as cold as he was, will also want to confirm Lucia's care for him in this capricious way.

No one knew how the news leaked. Arthur's car accident and hospitalization news were still spreading. A number of reporters ran to the hospital to do interviews. Although they were stopped, they still saw Lucia who was in the ward to take care of Arthur. So, the news of Lucia and Arthur's breakup was broken, and the thing she seduced Jacob also became a nonsense.

Faced with such a result, the most annoyed person was naturally Jacob. He had thought, in his personal manipulation, he can make Lucia helpless, and she would finally turn to him. He did not expect Arthur's car accident destroyed everything.

In the chairman's office of JTP building, Jacob tore the magazine that reported Lucia and Arthur to shreds, and was furious. Poppy, who learnt of the report, saw him angry when she entered the office, and secretly wondered if Jacob needed to be so angry even though the plan failed to their advantage.

"Jacob, we still failed this time." Poppy, who said this, was actually secretly happy. Although it was only out of self-consciousness, she was still happy to see Lucia surrounded by men again.

"I know without you saying it!" Jacob was angry at the moment and spoke in a very impulsive tone.

"What are you mad at me for ..." Poppy felt aggrieved. This time the set-up was his own manipulation. Did he want to come to blame her?

Poppy's aggrieved behavior, instead of comforting her husband, at this time was even more disgusting to Jacob. If she had been more understanding, he would not be immediately attracted by Lucia when she was back home!

Poppy and Jacob both had been mentally shifting the blame to each other.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Seeing Jacob staring at her and not saying anything, Poppy finally realized that her attitude was a bit biased, so she hurried to Jacob's side and asked him in a delicate voice, "Jacob, so what do we do next?"

"How should I know!" Jacob replied coldly. He was out of ideas now. As long as Arthur was still protecting Lucia, it would be hard to find another chance to leave her alone himself. Seeing that she had condescended and still couldn't please Jacob, Poppy got angry, "I was discussing with you, wasn't I? Why do you speak so rashly!?"

"I'm angry now. Do you expect me to be subservient to you?!" Jacob finally couldn't help but burst out his frustration with Poppy.

"What do you mean by that?!" Poppy immediately straightened up at hearing this and glared at Jacob, "Is the tenderness you usually show me deliberate? Is it called being subservient?!" Poppy didn't expect Jacob to say something like that.

She always thought that Jacob was obedient to her and took good care of her, but now he unexpectedly came up with the word "subservient"!

"You know it well." Jacob didn't bother with Poppy. He was still in a bad mood!

"You!" Poppy was choked by Jacob's words. She got up angrily and said coldly, "Whatever!" After she returned to her office, Poppy was still furious. What did she do to Jacob that he would target her like this!? Once she started to think deeper, Poppy couldn't help but think of Lucia's influence on Jacob again. Could it be ...Jacob fell in love with Lucia again?

If Jacob was concerned about himself, even if he really had no choice, how will he scandalize Lucia for the sake of attacking her alone, which was a great disrespect to himself.

The more she thought about it, the more Poppy felt that something was wrong.

What if... it was real?

The more Poppy thought about it, the more irritable she became. And her mood was getting worse and worse. What people needed most at such times as to talk, but Poppy was such a person who had no close friends. It was not that others people rejected her, but she was too suspicious. After ascending to a high position, she always suspected that other people wanted to take advantage of her. With such an idea, she could not make close friends.

However, Poppy still had one object of confession.

She picked up her phone without thinking twice and called a person. Although the other person said he was busy, as soon as Poppy said she was in a bad mood, the person immediately agreed to come out and meet her.

Poppy arrived at the cafe first and shortly after, the person she was waiting for arrived.

The man who came to see Poppy was a man of her age. The man looked gentle and elegant, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, but looked very gentle.

"Kane, you're here." As soon as she saw the man, Poppy had a weary expression.

This man was the lawyer who helped her and Jacob grab Webbex Group and the divorce agreement was from him.

Kane and Poppy came from a same place. Although they and Jacob were from the same place as well, Poppy knew Kane longer than Jacob. What was more, Kane had been in love with Poppy. His nature was not bad, but for Poppy, he still participated in the plan to take over the Webbex Group, just to win her smile.

Poppy, in fact, had always known Kane's feelings for her, but unfortunately she was more in love with Jacob who was ambitious and knew how to be romantic. Kane will be much less interesting to her compared with Jacob's performance.
