She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 194

Juliana's heart sank. She went to the hidden corner and looked through the glass. She knew the woman sitting opposite Kane. It was Poppy!

The way Poppy looked was very different from usual. With light makeup on her face, she wore a simple but elegant long dress, looking like an innocent girl.

"Did you have another fight with Jacob today?" Kane asked Poppy as soon as she sat down in the cafe.

"Well, he's been picking on me non-stop since he slapped last time." Poppy said pitifully, "Kane, I don't know how much longer I can hold on."

"Does he even hit you?" Kane asked worriedly.

Some time ago, Poppy suddenly went to his home late at night. At that time, she was drunk, with clear finger marks on her face. As soon as she saw him, she began to cry. Kane naturally would not sit by and do nothing. After he pacified her, he let her stay at home. That night, seeing Poppy fall asleep with tears in her eyes, Kane felt his feelings for her were evoked.

After that, Poppy came to him almost every day. He didn't know whether or not she did it deliberately, her makeup was changing day by day, and she wore much simpler styles. Gradually, she looked more like her old self that he adored.

Kane also wanted to spare some time to spend with Juliana, but Poppy wept and tell him Jacob not only scolded her but hit her every time she saw him. Having sympathy for Poppy, he again played the role of her protector, came out every day to see her, accompanied her and comforted her.

"He almost did it to me again last night," Poppy said in an injured tone. Her eyes began to redden again. Beneath her pathetic look was her calculations. In fact, Jacob had not spoken to her for more than half a month, so she was just making up the story to Kane.

Poppy was doing that in order to find another trustworthy partner.

"Poppy, you will have a poorer relationship with Jacob as time goes by. Have you thought about how to handle it?" Kane asked Poppy.

"Kane, I want to break up with Jacob." Poppy said decisively, knowing the time was right.

"Break up?" Kane was shocked at her words. He had advised her to split up with Jacob because Jacob was not a trustworthy life partner. But she refused to listen to him. How could she say she wanted to break up with Jacob so easily now?

"Yes, actually, I hid one thing from you ..." Poppy looked at Kane and said in an undertone, hesitating.

"What is it?" Kane asked.

"I registered a company in your name in Houver, and now I'm having my henchman transfer JTP's assets to it," Poppy looked at Kane and said seriously.

Kane almost stood up after hearing this. He looked at Poppy with wide eyes and asked, "So that's why you took my ID card that time?"

"Yes." Poppy nodded. "The marriage between Jacob and I can't work, so I gotta find another way out."

"But why did you register it using my name?" Leaving aside the fact that what Poppy was doing now was against the law, Kane was more concerned about why she used his name to register the company.

"Firstly, the plan can be carried out more smoothly without arousing Jacob's suspicion; secondly ..." Poppy deliberately paused. With a gentle look in her eyes, she looked at Kane and continued.
