She Is A CEO

The question made Arthur's eyes flash, and he turned his head without answering. Sophie responded, "We'll figure it out!"

The news of Lucia and Arthur's relationship breakup soon made it into Atgate's gossip magazines, and the paparazzi who had previously given up chasing Arthur's gossip chased him crazily after he announced his romance, and, naturally, they didn't miss the sight of Lucia distancing herself from him.

The people of Athegate had not yet fully accepted Arthur's romance announcement, and then they heard the news of their relationship breakup, so one can imagine how the public opinion will be buzzing. As the news of Lucia and Arthur's news continued to develop, Poppy saw the reports and her greatest joy was to see Lucia having a hard time. So, she went to Jacob to vent her gloating when she first got the

news.

"Jacob, look, it doesn't even need us to do anything before Lucia starts to have a falling out with Arthur. If the breakup is confirm, then Lucia will have one less person to rely on."

When she said this, Poppy had an open and smug smile on her face.

In fact, long before Poppy got the news, Jacob had already read the reports. He was naturally gloating. But compared to Poppy's simple malice, he was more relaxed.

Lucia was single again, right?

"Jacob, why don't you say anything?" Noticing that Jacob had been thinking about something, Poppy stuck to him and asked.

Poppy leaned over and Jacob frowned, but only for a moment. After talking with Lucia, Jacob became more mindful of Poppy's presence than before. Smelling Poppy's strong perfume, Jacob remembered the day when he smelled the faint fragrance from Lucia as he approached her from behind.

"Jacob?" Seeing that Jacob remained silent, Poppy called out to him with some displeasure.

"Well, that's one less person for her to lean on." Jacob came back to his senses and responded indifferently.

"Why do I feel like you're not very happy?" Poppy was still very sensitive.

"You're overthinking it," Jacob continued, giving Poppy a sidelong glance, "I was just wondering if I could do something with this."

"Hmm? What kind of thing can you do?" Poppy heard this and became interested. She quickly stood up to ask Jacob.

"Guess what public opinion would say if Lucia comes out to meet me alone at a time like this?" Jacob said with a sudden smile.

"I'm sure they'll think she's got her ex-husband again, and there will be a lot of people cursing her then," Poppy replied without thinking before glaring and asking, "You're meeting her alone?!" Realizing the meaning of Jacob's words, Poppy didn't like it and that was her limit.

Poppy had to admit that now Lucia was more attractive than before. When she was in college, she was the most sought-after woman. Now she was more mature and charming. Jacob resisted it and worked with Poppy to snatch everything Lucia had. What about now?

Poppy was unsure and afraid to try, so she was more jealous than anyone of Jacob's attitude toward Lucia.

"What? I can't?" Poppy's immediate display of jealousy caused Jacob to ask back with displeasure.

Poppy pursed her lips and stared at Jacob without saying a word.

Jacob sighed and explained with a rather bitter look, "I'm not doing this to crack down on Lucia, am I? You also know that at this time, if the paparazzi finds her meeting with me in private, it would be a fatal blow to both her and Arthur. And even Eduard might doubt her character. By then, people who have changed their minds about her will definitely change their side and question her again, which will be beneficial to us in a hundred ways. Don't you know who's at stake?"

Of course Poppy knew that Jacob was right, but she won't be willing to let him do so!

"Well, can't we find another guy to ask her out?" Poppy offered her opinion that it was to avoid Jacob and Lucia meeting alone.

"Another man?" Jacob raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who's better than me? A strange man shows up. Even if it's reported, Lucia can say the man is a client, a friend. Who's going to question?"

This time, Poppy can not find words to retort, but she was still not willing. Pursing her lips, she quietly made some plans in her heart.

Jacob saw that Poppy didn't say anything anymore. He knew in his heart that she must still be unhappy, but who, in turn, could stop him?

Jacob did not explicitly say to Poppy what way would he use to ask Lucia out, but he did ask Lucia out in the evening. In a relatively complex environment of a cafe, every customer around may be his paparazzi arranged in the store.

When Lucia showed up as promised, it was Nia who was at home to take care of Theodore.

Since breaking up with Arthur, although Sophie still often came to the house to take care of Theodore, because of her insistence, Sophie no longer wanted to stay as late as before. If Sophie stayed too long, Lucia will politely remind her that it was time to leave. Every time Sophie will helplessly look at Lucia, and Lucia was gritting her teeth and resisting all the pressure.

"What do you want to see me out for?" Arriving at the cafe designated by Jacob, as soon as she walked up to him, Lucia asked directly and without mercy.

"Sit down first." Jacob said unhurriedly.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Lucia could only sit down and was distracted by Jacob.

Seeing that Lucia sat down and thought about things, Jacob did not bother her, but, on the contrary, he liked her very much when she was quiet, which would facilitate him to talk to her.

After sitting for a long time without Jacob taking the initiative to talk, Lucia finally looked up at Jacob and asked again, "Do you ask me out just to stare at me like that?"

"Just trying to find out what's going on with you and Arthur. You guys have been on the front burner lately." Jacob didn't mind Lucia's impatient tone at all and said with a smile.

"It's none of your business." With Jacob, Lucia couldn't possibly be polite or think about the words she used.

Jacob seemed to have expected her to answer this way. The smile on his face did not fade and he continued to say, "You've had a good time abroad this time, right? I couldn't even find you on the phone." Although Lucia was distracted, she found that today's Jacob was not only not hostile to her, but also dedicated to find some boring topics. The smile on his face looked harmless. This was not his style! Immediately the alarm of defensiveness sounded. Lucia turned her eyes and stared sharply at Jacob and asked, "Jacob, what the hell are you up to?"
