She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 37

The next day at work, Lucia went to Eduard to apologize for what happened last night.

After all, she attended the party with him for business, but she left because of personal affairs. She felt that she had failed in her duty.

Eduard felt frustrated to hear Lucia's apology but pretended to be calm. "It's not a big deal. How you doing? If you feel bad, you can rest at home."

"What happened last night didn't bother me," Lucia smiled and said.

Recalling Arthur's confession of love, she couldn't help but smiling.

"Mr. Burton, I'm sorry. If Jacob turns against Jibillion because of me, I will be responsible for it myself."

She knew Jacob was narrow-minded. He lost face in front of her last night. Lucia guessed he would target against Eduard and Jibillion Inc in the future, which was the last thing Lucia expected.

"He'll do it even without you. You know why the former executive quit, right?" Wicked men would risk anything to benefit themselves. Eduard wasn't bothered by it at all. "Don't worry. It's not that easy for him to make things difficult for Jibillion."

Knowing he was trying to reassure her, Lucia smiled and nodded. She was wondering if Poppy had heard of what had happened last night.

At the same time, the plane Poppy took landed on the airport in Athegate. After she got off, she drove to JTP Group.

On the plane, Poppy received a message from her friend that Jacob grabbed a woman at Mr. Kaur's birthday party last night and argued with Arthur and Eduard. Poppy's heart jolted after she read the message.

How could Jacob do that behind her back! Rage surged through her.

When she entered the company, she looked very unhappy. All the employees who met her bowed their heads, being afraid that they might accidentally offend Poppy who was hot-tempered.

"Jacob!" When she arrived at Jacob's office door, Poppy pushed it open and angrily called Jacob by his name.

Jacob, who was talking business with a client, was embarrassed to see Poppy barging in.

"Poppy, you're back!" Jacob guessed that Poppy had known about what happened last night from her expression.

But now there was an outsider in his office, he reminded Poppy gently to control her temper.

Poppy, however, was so angry that she went over to them and stared at Jacob.

The client was on pins and needles. He smiled awkwardly and got up to leave. Jacob had no choice but to walk him out first. After the client left and the door was closed, he looked angry, too, and glared at Poppy.

"Poppy, aren't you too grumpy? Can't you show me some respect in front of outsiders?"

"Respect? Why should I? Just think about what you have done last night!" She asked Jacob with a sneer, and crossed her arms over her chest, and the anger was burning in her chest.
