Chapter 274 Jacob's trap
"You just found out now?" Spencer said with a laugh.
"I was so anxious after I found out that the book was lost. I didn't think about it too much. I'll call them back right now." After Jacob finished speaking, he really took out his mobile phone and called his subordinates to tell them not to look for it any more. There was a 90% chance Poppy had the book.
"The person you should pay attention to most right now is Poppy. Hasn't she been hiding in that lawyer's house? We can't send people to do something directly, but as her husband, you can come to take your wife home. That doesn't break the law. Even if she calls the police, there is no room for outsiders to interfere in the affairs between you and her. Why don't you take her home first?" Spencer reminded Jacob again.
"That's right!" Hearing Spencer's words, Jacob stood up excitedly, "She and I are still a couple. She lives outside with a man behind my back, so it's only natural for me to bring her back!
"Twenty-four hours have passed since the ledger was lost. And the person who stole it has neither called to threaten you and the police hasn't summoned you, which means that the person who stole the ledger wants to communicate with you privately. And this person must be Poppy! "Spencer saw Jacob was excited, so he reminded him more.
"Yeah, it must be her, I'll go find her!" Jacob was so excited that he stood up and wanted to go out, but Spencer stopped him.
"Are you really in such a hurry that you're out of your mind? Let's wait until it gets dark." Spencer said helplessly. At first, he was quite optimistic about Jacob. Now, the more he got to know him, the more he realized that this person was prone to dementia. He may be cunning enough, but he was far from being steady.
"Yes, I'm waiting for it to get dark. It's almost time for dinner," Jacob stopped, glanced at Spencer and said, "Let's have dinner here tonight." After he finished speaking, he called for a servant to clean the living room and prepare dinner. When night fell, he took his people to Kane's house, and Spencer went home.
On the way, after thinking, Jacob asked Samuel to contact several paparazzi, and then took them directly to the door of Kane's house without any scruples.
Bang bang bang!
Smashing the door three times, Jacob yelled from the inside, "Poppy, I know you're inside. Come out!"
Inside the door, Poppy was standing in the living room and felt terrified. She didn't expect Jacob to find her directly.
Kane heard the sound and came out of the room, and then Jacob knocked on the door again, followed by his voice,
"Poppy, why you stay at another man's house? You haven't been home for half a month. Do you still think of me as your husband?!"
When Poppy heard this, she thought something was wrong. When Kane was about to open the door, she hurriedly grabbed him, "Kane, don't open the door. It's a scam!"
"It's okay. We have a lot of neighbors. We're not afraid of it if he really wants to make troubles." Kane comforted Poppy, but Poppy was still shaking her head.
Poppy knew Jacob too well. If he wanted her life, how could he knock on the door in a big way, and deliberately mentioned their relationship as a couple and that she was living in another man's house now? There must be something wrong!
"Kane, don't open!" Poppy said in horror as she grabbed Kane's hand.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Kane hesitated for a moment. Seeing Poppy's attitude was so determined, he withdrew his hand. The two slowly returned to the living room. Kane was just about to think about what to do when a loud bang came from the door. And two men rolled in through the door. They slammed the door open directly.
The two men got up quickly. At this time, Jacob walked in through the door with his subordinates and reporters. Jacob stood in front of them. When he saw Poppy, he sneered and said, "You are really here!"
Accompanying Jacob's voice was the click of the cameras in the hands of the reporters.
Jacob actually brought reporters! And recording video!
Poppy's face turned pale in an instant. This method seemed familiar.
Before Kane and Poppy could say anything, Jacob did sad-fishing in front of reporters on his own,
"Poppy, you make my heart hurt so much. Over the years, I have let you sit firmly in the position of JTP's vice president. I let you drive the best luxury car, buy the most expensive clothes. I love you and cherish you. Take a look of what have you done to me? You're even with your personal lawyer. Do you want the whole world to know that I, Jacob, is cheated again?!"
Sure enough, Jacob was dealing with her the same way he dealt with Lucia back then. The funny thing was that this was planned by her at that time.
Poppy turned the surprise into anger, pointed at Jacob and said,
"Jacob, don't slander me! There's nothing going on with me and Kane!!"
"Why will you live in his house for more than half a month? What are you doing for more than half a month? Sitting on the sofa every day chatting and drinking tea? Or watching TV together?!" When Jacob said so, his subordinates around him cooperated and let out a roar of laughter, and he continued,
"You know Lucia betrayed me once, and this is what I hate the most. Why do you still treat me like this? Poppy, how cruel is you?!"
Kane reacted at this time. He stood beside Poppy and said, "Mr. Taylor, Ms. Powell does stay at my house for a few days, but you know the reason best. Don't jump to conclusions. Otherwise, don't blame us for making it public."
"What's the reason? Isn't it because you two secretly collude and gang up into adultery? Why? Are you still threatening me?" Jacob ignored the hints in Kane's words, turned to the camera and said, "Kane, a lawyer who understands the law the most, has hooked up with someone else's wife and can still stand here and refute with confidence. Do you think you're a lawyer and eloquent?!" Jacob turned his head and glared at Kane fiercely. There was no dear in his eyes.
Kane was so angry that he wanted to go up to debate, but Poppy grabbed his arm. She lowered her voice and said, "Don't go. Jacob brings all the paparazzi that we bought before. They can write whatever Jacob wants them to write. What you say is useless."
Although Poppy's voice was low, it was still heard by Jacob, who was standing closest to them. Jacob grinned and said to Poppy,
"Poppy, it's too late for you to repent now. Go home with me. We have something to talk about ..."
Jacob deliberately emphasized his words. To others he sounded like a husband who loved his wife, but to Poppy, every word he said was a threat.
"I'm not going back!" Poppy refused resolutely.
