She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 102

Lucia couldn't remember how she got home. She only remembered that she walked a long and exhausting way.

Just after arriving home, Lucia fell asleep on the bed. Actually, she hadn't fully recovered yet and the side effects of hallucinogens on her hadn't worn off.

At the same time, a storm was brewing in the Taylor residence.

"Say it. Where have you been these days?" Poppy stood in the living room, stared fixedly at Jacob, and questioned.

"I have a business to deal with, so I went to Clario for a business trip." Jacob was rather calm, walked to the sofa, and sat down, not caring about Poppy's accusations.

"You liar! I asked Tomas. He told me you didn't have any important things to deal with!" Poppy followed him to the sofa, staring condescendingly at Jacob, and asked, with anger boiling up inside her chest.

"You investigate me?" Jacob looked up at Poppy coldly with anger glinting in his eyes.

Poppy knew that Jacob hated it when she interfered with his actions, but she didn't give a shit about it because of the anger surging up. She said with crossed arms over her chest, "So what if I check you? What are you afraid of if you are innocent?"

During the time when Jacob disappeared, Lucia was missing. Poppy would not be that stupid to not know these two things were connected.

After being silent for a while, Jacob suddenly stood up slowly and brought a strong sense of oppression to Poppy at the same time, with terrifying coldness in his eyes, Poppy suddenly took a step backward.

"Poppy, I warn you not to interfere too much with my affairs. You've assigned your men to spy on me, and take charge of my secretary and my men. I did not raise any objection, but it didn't mean that I was satisfied with it."

Jacob stared coldly at Poppy and said.

Poppy was shocked. She knew that Jacob was actually dissatisfied with his intervention, but he always pampered her and turned a blind eye to it. But today, why did he have the courage to refute her?

"Jacob, don't forget that I am your wife. As your wife, don't I have the right to ask you after you've been missing for a few days?" The more Poppy thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. So, she retorted with stress.

"I've given you the answer," Jacob said coldly.

"Do you think I'll believe it?" Poppy immediately replied.

"Whether you believe it or not is your business. Poppy, we are husband and wife. I once said that we were one. But you are the one that harbors different motives, aren't you?" Jacob took a step closer.

"You... What nonsense are you talking!" Poppy took a step back guiltily and retorted, "I won't harbor different motives!"

"You'd better be." Seeing that Poppy was scared, Jacob sneered and squinted at her. "I'm tired. I'm gonna rest."
