She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 237

Kane looked into Poppy's pleading eyes and sighed. "Poppy, you know that's impossible."

Poppy was stunned. She had begged him in such a humble manner, but he was still indifferent?

"Is it because of Juliana?" Poppy was stuck in this question.

"I can't leave her and the baby alone," Kane said firmly. He believed that Poppy reaped what she sowed and that he couldn't leave Juliana and their son alone because of Poppy.

Poppy fell silent, biting her lip with a look of resentfulness. Kane saw her expression and said frankly, "I am not afraid that you tell Julia the truth; in fact, I have thought about confessing to her. It's just that I do not know how to say it yet."

"I won't say anything to her!" Poppy said grumpily, "Do you think I will be that cruel to you?"

Kane didn't buy a word of it. He knew Poppy said that to fix their friendship, and he had long seen through Poppy, so he would never be used by her again.

"Kane, please do not confess to Juliana," Poppy said after thinking about it. "I have to continue to hide from Jacob in the future and I need some backing. The Knight Group is a well-known company in the country. If Juliana is willing to back me up, maybe ..."

"You still want to use her even now?" Poppy's words disgusted Kane and he rebuked Poppy loudly.

"I just want her to help me ..." Poppy said innocently, not understanding why Kane was furious. Selfish as she was, she could not judge what she did was wrong.

Kane was so angry with Poppy's innocent look that he couldn't say anything. Poppy saw this and quickly comforted him.

"Kane, don't be angry. Didn't we have a deal before? Brought up by the Davies family, your child will become the best of the best in the future, and if you tell Julia, then our effort is in vain."

"I'd rather have him begging with me than being named after Davies!" Kane said firmly. That was the consequence which he was ready to bear. He feared that Juliana would not forgive him, but at the same time, he looked forward to meeting his child as a father.

He hoped that the child could call him daddy when the child grew up a little bit.

Poppy did not expect Kane to be so determined and knew that he could not be persuaded, so she started to talk about her own difficulties.

"Well then, you confess to her. I'll find a place to hide. It's not a big deal. Everything will be over if Jacob does catch me."

"Why are you saying that?" Knowing that Poppy was deliberately saying that to arouse his sympathy, Kane sighed. "Don't worry. I won't leave you alone, but I need to think about how to solve this matter."

Kane had his own difficulties. He had vowed to Juliana to break off the relationship with Poppy, but now he could not leave Poppy alone under such circumstances.

Poppy didn't know Kane had his own difficulties. She just felt happy to hear his words of consolation, and she knew that Kane would not leave her.

Thus, Poppy stayed at Lepus.

One week had passed, and people had to wake up from their dreams. Lucia and Arthur took Theodore to Honolulu International Airport together, yet the destination was different.

"Lucia, I should escort you to Chicago with Teddy. I am so worried about you." Before he was about to check in, Arthur was making one last effort.
