She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 172

Full of resentment, Poppy did not leave. She sat in the car and waited until Kane escorted Juliana back from a walk. Joking and laughing, the two got in the car and left. Then Poppy drove the car to the road from Fragranerde Hall back to the city, waiting for Kane.

After a long time, Kane's car returned. Poppy grabbed the opportunity to step on the gas, leaping out from the roadside, and blocked Kane's way. Luckily, the speed of Kane's car was not too fast, otherwise, the two cars would have collided.

Kane got out of the car in shock, and just as he was about to hold the other party responsible, he recognized Poppy's car and saw her sitting in the driver's seat with a stern face and staring fixedly at him.

Kane was so guilty that he looked at Poppy and couldn't say anything.

Poppy saw Kane change color, snorted and got out of the car. Then she said, "Is Juliana the reason you can't leave?"

"She's pregnant and moody and needs to be taken care of," Kane said after some thought.

"She's moody? How about me? I'm in a bad mood. You let me sulk alone just to take care of her?" Poppy said discontentedly.

"Don't you have Jacob by your side? Julia doesn't have anyone else she can trust ..." Kane said hesitantly.

He used Jacob to put her off! Poppy thought angrily.

She suddenly realized something and stared straight at Kane for a long time before asking, "Kane, are you in love with Juliana?"

Kane looked back at Poppy, braced himself up, and nodded silently.

"Good for you, Kane!" After Kane admitted it, Poppy walked up to him and said sarcastically, "I told you to fake an interest in her and seduce her, and you really fall for her?"

"Humans are sentimental creatures. She likes me, and I am not hard-hearted, so of course, I'll be touched." Kane not only defended himself, but implied something.

"Kane, are you implying I am hard-hearted?" Poppy questioned in a fierce tone, looking like a joke.

"Poppy, I'm really in love with Julia, and she has my baby. I hope you can give us your blessings," Kane said sincerely, ignoring Poppy's questioning, but was met with roars of laughter.

At Kane's words, Poppy bent over with laughter. The loud and harsh laughter sounded through the empty road.

"Did I hear right? Give blessings to you?" Finally having laughed enough, Poppy stood up straight and immediately changed color, glaring at Kane fiercely and said, "Kane, have you forgotten what you are? Have you forgotten what you did to Juliana and why she got pregnant? I’ll just give my blessings to her and Arthur!"

"Poppy, you said you'd help me make things clear to Juliana and get my baby back after things are over!" Kane still remembered Poppy's promise, but now he suddenly realized it seemed to be just a perfunctory statement of hers.

"I did promise you, but when I explain to her by then, it’s not up to me to decide whether Juliana forgives you or not." Still having a clear mind, Poppy did not turn Kane down but shifted the focus of their conversation to Juliana.

Kane turned silent at once. If Julia knew ...

He didn't dare to think about it.

"Kane, don't be whimsical," Poppy continued when she saw that Kane was silent, knowing that he had taken her words in.
