She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 229

In the afternoon ten days ago, Poppy was having her hair done in a high-class beauty salon when her assistant Daphne called and told her that the president was looking for her.

So, she asked Daphne if she knew what it was about.

"Ms. Powell, I don't know what's going on, but the president is in your office right now and he looks very bad," Daphne told Poppy honestly.

"You tell him I'll be back soon." Poppy was disturbed, and after hanging up the phone, she impatiently dismissed the hairdresser and went back to the office.

When she returned to the office, Poppy went to find Daphne and asked her again if she knew what was going on, but Daphne shook her head repeatedly and said that the president was still in her office.

"Back?" Jacob sat in Poppy's chair and spoke when he saw her enter.

"What's so urgent that you had to get me back?" Poppy avoided eye contact with Jacob and sat down on the couch.

Jacob stepped out from behind the desk, picked up a file on the desk, walked over to the coffee table and threw the file on the table before saying to Poppy.

"Poppy, you're quite clever."

"What do you mean by that?" Poppy knew that Jacob was sarcastic with her. Instead of looking at the document, she frowned at Jacob and asked.

"Finish reading it before you talk to me," sitting on the couch diagonally opposite Poppy, Jacob crossed his legs and said casually.

Poppy looked at the file and hated to read it, but she had to. She stretched out one hand and took it. When she just turned the first page, her face became as white as sheet.

It recorded the details of how she transferred the company's assets, including when, where, who signed it in the accounting department, and who made the final decision. Of course, it was Poppy who made it.

Poppy's hand began to shake and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Jacob had known it all?

"Is it detailed enough?" Jacob asked as he saw Poppy sitting on pins and needles.

"Jacob, I'm ..." Poppy was trying to find a reason, but she failed. She never thought Jacob would find it out. She thought she had done it perfectly.

"What?" Jacob said in a cold voice, "I don't know when Kane started his company. How can you be so generous towards him? In just a few months, you transferred nearly a billion dollars of assets to his company.

"I'm just helping him ..." Poppy put the blame on Kane, but she sounded unconvincing.

"Helping him? You're helping yourself, aren't you?" Jacob had been waiting for the day of his showdown with Poppy, and had rehearsed every word he said in his mind.

"Poppy, tell me what you really want to do."

Poppy pressed her lips together and couldn't say anything.
