Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute

Chapter 41 Then Find Someone Who'll Do It for You

Filip said it with a cold expression on his face while looking Lucia in her eyes, quite impassive.

They had known each other for over two decades and she always thought that she was different from

him. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Even if she wasn't a different one, she thought she could be as important as Freddie and Dillon to Filip.

But what Filip said today had brought her into reality.

The words he said "I respect the Scott family but I won't keep putting up with you" was harsh.

That respect was for the Scott family, not her.

Lucia was speechless and looked strangely pale. Looking at Filip in front of her, she wanted to say

something but she didn't know what else she could say.

After about ten seconds of embarrassment, she finally came into some senses, "Did Starry say

something to you?"

Filip raised his eyes and a cold face, "Do you think I'm that stupid to see through things?"

His voice was even colder like a knife cutting faces in winter.

Lucia squeezed at her purse, "You're having dinner with me now just to tell me this?"

"What else?"

He frowned and started to look impatiently.

Lucia suddenly laughed, "Guess that was just me."

Then she stood up, "I don't think we should continue with this dinner."

Filip didn't reply as he obviously thought so too.

Lucia thought Filip would say something nice when she stood up but he just sat there like he didn't hear

and he didn't even look at her.

Feeling like being slapped by him, she took the purse, took a last glance at him, and left in

embarrassment and unwillingness.

It was not long after Lucia left, the dinner was ready on the table. Filip just sat there and enjoyed it.

Izabella and Starry hadn't met for over a month as Izabella was busy lately.

Izabella was out of town for work when this happened so she could only check on Starry through the

phone.

Starry always said that she was fine but Iris' posts were so popular that it got most people online mad

at Starry at a certain level.

Izabella had made inquiries before this dinner and she was about to tell Starry that she had some

media sources which made it easier to turn the whole thing around.

But she realized she hadn't thought it through when she heard Starry's plan.

Izabella just thought about how to shut Iris' mouth while Starry was thinking about how to break Iris'

safety net.

"Have you found a lawyer?"

Starry had a sip of soup, "Yep, I had talked to Bentley Wood before I went to see you. And I gave him

the proof."

"Bentley Wood? The Bentley Wood?"

Izabella was surprised as this man was not only famous among lawyers but also in show business.

If Starry really had Bentley as her lawyer, then Iris would definitely beg Starry to drop the case for sure.

Seeing Izabella's surprised look, Starry smiled, "Yep, that Bentley. He is a friend of Wyatt's."

Izabella raised her eyebrows, "Wow, who would know!"

He didn't ask for compensation but offered legal help after this happened.

Izabella suddenly remembered that it was Wyatt who put his coat on Starry just before her gown was

totally broken as Lucia paid someone to break it at Frances's birthday party.

Izabella took a look at Starry in front of her at this thought.

To be honest, Starry was so beautiful that Izabella would woo her if she was a guy.

Starry looked back at Izabella and smiled without uttering a word.

Just then Izabella's phone rang.

She took a look at the phone screen and picked it up unwillingly after seeing who was calling, "Dillon?"

"You are having dinner with Starry?"

Hearing his words, Izabella knew that Dillon was up to no good.

Dillon had been letting Izabella talk to Starry about the copyright of her new book since he knew that

Starry was Starlight.

Izabella rolled her eyes and said, "No!"

Dillon obviously didn't buy it, "Where are you eating?"

"Gotta go!"

Izabella was not as cheap as Dillon and she knew that Starry wouldn't work with Hallowflame

Entertainment for a reason.

Hearing her words, Dillon got anxious, "Hey! Are you at the Fresh Flavor?"

"No! We are not!"

"Don't hang up! I have a friend there today and he saw you guys and Filip. You know what? We saw

Starry yesterday when we were about to have dinner because it was Thomas Hayes's birthday."

Hearing this, Izabella moved her lips and didn't hang up, "And?"

"Wyatt just went out behind her. You know how Lucia is! She said something about Starry and Wyatt

being together. And Filip got annoyed by her and asked her if she liked Starry, then she just left and

didn't eat."

"I just said to him that he did know how to choke a person and he asked me if I also like Starry! And

told me I could just go for it."

Izabella couldn't stand these words, "You guys are disgusting!"

"Hey! That's Filip! Not me! Besides, going for her is what he told me to do! Since you like her so much,

wouldn't that be great if she was your sister-in-law?"

"Great my ass!"

This time, Izabella hung up the phone directly.

She raised her head and saw Starry was shelling prawns for her in disposable gloves so Izabella

couldn't help but curse Dillon more secretly.

Seeing that Izabella was staring at her, Starry smiled a little, "Hurry, hurry, before it gets cold."

Izabella put down her phone, "Little Starry, you are so nice to me!"

Starry took a look at her, "No big deal."

"Well, lots of men wouldn't even bother to do it!"

Starry took a sip of soup, "Then find someone who will do it for you."

No big deal.
