She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 198

After a few heavy breaths, Poppy started to lunge at Lucia again. Just then, a Lamborghini pulled over on the side of the road, and Jacob got out of the car in a rage.

He just came back from the company and drove slowly on the way to enjoy the cool breeze. Then he was attracted by two people on the roadside. He found they were Lucia and Poppy at a glance. Seeing Poppy attacking Lucia, he immediately stopped the car and took a few steps forward to pull Poppy, who was about to lunge at Lucia again.

"What are you doing!" Jacob blurted out.

Jacob pulled Poppy by the collar. Feeling the restraint on her neck, she stopped breathing for moments and coughed. When she saw who was pulling her, she seemed to come to life, clutched Jacob's arm, and shouted. "Jacob, you come right in time! Lucia is giving me a hard time!"

Jacob frowned at these words, he looked at Poppy who was aggrieved, and raised his eyes to look at Lucia.

Under the light, Lucia folded her arms over her chest with a calm smile on her lips.

"Go home!" With knitted brows, Jacob looked away and said to Poppy.

Poppy froze for a moment, her eyes slowly ignited with anger. She yelled at Jacob, "Jacob, what are you doing? She is getting me into trouble. You don't help me but ask me to go home?"

"I'm helping you by asking you to go home!" Jacob said impatiently, "Is it decent of you to have a fight in the street!"

"She started it!" Poppy pointed at Lucia and shouted in an injured tone.

Jacob looked at Lucia. He knew it was Lucia who come to Poppy. Otherwise, she would not have shown up in the neighborhood of Poppy and his home. But he did not want to pursue this matter. He was somehow gloating when seeing Poppy's wretched appearance.

In Jacob's mind, Poppy deserved to be beaten.

Also, Jacob felt guilty to stay with Lucia and Poppy at the same time.

"Come on. Do you want me to help fight Lucia?" Jacob hid his real thought and said in a deep voice, "Just avoid her if she wants to get you in trouble. What's the point of having a fight?"

Enraged by Jacob's inaction, she pushed Jacob away and shouted in anger.

"OK, I'll do it myself if you don't help me!"

She was about to lunge at Lucia again, but was soon grabbed by Jacob by the back of her collar and was restricted again.

Ignoring Poppy who was coughing, Jacob said lightly, "Can you stop making a fool of yourself? Go home!"

After saying that, he turned to hold Poppy's wrist to leave, but he failed to drag her. So, he looked back, only to see Poppy stroking her chest, panting, glaring at him with red-rimmed eyes.

"Jacob, are you reluctant to fight her?" Poppy asked in a hoarse voice.
