She is a CEO by George Chapman

Juliana stared at Lucia in a daze, not knowing how to react. Then Sophie stood up and said to Juliana, "Julia, listen to Lucia. Go take care of the baby first."

Kayla also saw the change in Lucia's expression, and quickly said to echo Sophie, "Come on up."

Juliana moved and walked towards the stairs in a daze. Why did she feel the atmosphere was strange?

Juliana went upstairs, and Kane stood up, looked at her back eagerly, but didn't dare to move.

Lucia asked him at this point, "How is Poppy doing now?"

Kane came back to his senses, looked at Lucia and answered frankly, "Jacob threatened her with a divorce on the basis of her transfer of assets. Poppy was not willing to leave the house, so she threatened him to reveal your past to the world. Jacob was afraid and just sent people to hunt her down to avoid future troubles, so I..."

In front of Lucia, Kane couldn't say the word "help her".

"Dog-eat-dog," Arthur said with a cold snort.

"Jacob has the guts to send people to hunt her down?" Lucia's focus was this. Jacob's character was just like a piece of shit. When the opponent was strong, he became coward, and when the other was weak, he was arrogant. He seemed very arrogant but worried and cautious actually. She didn't think he'd want to kill Poppy.

"Poppy said the killers were foreigners, and I don't know where Jacob got them from," said Kane.

"Foreigners?" Lucia raised her eyebrows, and for some reason, Spencer's infuriating face came to her mind.

"Now that Poppy is hiding in Lepus. She doesn't know I'm back."

"Today you confess everything. Have you thought about what will happen in the future?" Lucia asked Kane coldly.

"Naturally I have thought about it," Kane said with a wry smile, "I have helped Poppy to do a lot of bad things over the years. I know I can't escape the blame. I just hope you don't make it difficult for Julia. She really didn't mean to target you. Just blame that Poppy is too manipulative, and she led Julia into what she is today. So don't blame her."

"Are you still thinking about her even though you are in danger?" Lucia asked sarcastically, but everyone except Kane looked at her.

Lucia was testing how deep Kane's feelings for Juliana were.

"Julia is actually the most innocent person," Kane bowed his head and said regretfully,

"If I hadn't lured her back to Athegate, she wouldn't have gotten involved in this mess, and she wouldn't have hated you because she thought she was raped, losing her original kindness and innocence. I let her suffer everything that shouldn't have suffered. Lucia, if you have any complaints, just come at me. Don't embarrass Julia. She's not wrong."

"You are responsible." Lucia said softly. No one knew what she meant.

Kane gradually felt that the questions Lucia asked him did not seem to be holding on to Juliana, but rather...

"I don't intend to embarrass her," Lucia said in response to Kane's guess, "I just see her worrying about whether or not to forgive you, and want to test you."

Kane's eyes widened, looking at Lucia.

Arthur walked over to Lucia, wrapped his arms around her waist, put his chin on her forehead and said softly, "Lucia, thank you."

"Thank for what? Kane said that she did it in the first place to protect you. The original intention was kind, and I can naturally not pursue it."

Lucia was not a hypocrite. She forgave Juliana so lightly when she was hurt. She just saw Juliana was moved because of the baby. As a mother, she can appreciate the wonderful feeling. Juliana, who just had a baby, made a sincere apology to her. It was not good for her to hold on. After all, the mastermind behind the scenes had been found out.

After speaking, seeing the happy look on Kane's face, Lucia refuted him coldly, "What are you happy about? I will not pursue it because of your son."

Kane's face changed, but he found that there seemed to be a faint smile on Lucia's face. And when Arthur couldn't help laughing, he realized that he was being teased by Lucia.

In an instant, Kane suddenly understood why Poppy deliberately designed so much, and even used Juliana to this point. And Arthur was still obsessed with Lucia. This woman was worth it!

As if making up her mind, Kane said to Lucia,

"Although I didn't participate in the whole thing six years ago, and my testimony is not enough to directly convict Jacob and Poppy in court, it can still be used as credible testimony. And the night when he forced you to sign the divorce agreement, I can also prove that you were coerced. By the way, have you got your mother's things back?"

"Not yet..." Lucia said and felt disappointed.

"What things?" Arthur asked Lucia and Kane, as soon as he heard the word "things".

"In order to force me to divorce, Jacob took away the only things my mother left to me. Haven't you always wondered why I went out to meet Jacob in private? Because of that things, Jacob promised, as long as I promised to meet him three times, he will return the things to me. But unfortunately, he broke my trust in the end."

Lucia explained her secret to Arthur, and laughed at herself that she had mistrusted Jacob again.

Lucia's words made Arthur's doubts disappear. He was really worried about their private meeting, but he didn't realize that Lucia was being embarrassed by Jacob.

"I'll get them back for you!" Arthur promised immediately.

"No hurry," Lucia shook her head and said, "He knows he can use this to threaten me, and won't use it easily. Besides, with the current situation, everything he took from me will be returned soon!" With her words, Lucia's eyes shone brightly.

"Jacob and Poppy are only peaceful on the surface. In fact, the two have long since separated. Now Poppy is hiding in Lepus and can't escape, which is also the result of her own behaviors." Kane sighed. After hearing Kane's words, everyone felt a lot. God had ever forgiven anyone who truly made mistakes.

The tense atmosphere just now eased a little. When Juliana came downstairs, she saw Kane talking to Lucia and Arthur. It didn't look like they were tit-for-tat. She hesitated for a while at the entrance of the stairs, not knowing how to face Lucia.

Arthur took this opportunity to chat with Kane about his previous doubts. Kane knew everything, and told Arthur the truths one by one. Arthur was relieved and furious after listening,

"I didn't expect Poppy to be so vicious. Looking at the various conspiracies she devised, one after another, one step at a time, if no one exposes it, we will really be trapped in the dark."
