Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 34

Starry was accused of plagiarizing online which let lots of people know that Starry was the "Starlight".

Dillon was shocked at this news, after all, the Baxter family was in show business. Starlight was the most popular star writer by then with her first novel Make a Show eight years ago.

Her other five novels topped the list of all websites and had over seven million fans by far.

Hallowflame Entertainment happened to get the copyright of Starlight's science fiction the Faraway Lover five years ago. They played just two episodes on TV and it had already become wildly popular and people loved it. This short play of 24 episodes had garnered eight billion views in total.

Hallowflame had made a fortune out of the Faraway Lover but when they tried to work with Starlight again, she turned them down no matter what offer they gave her.

After the Faraway Lover, Me in the Mirror, and The Seventh Crime Scene had all gone viral in the recent two years with the same number of episodes but more popular.

Dillon also contacted Starlight's editor and wanted to buy her latest suspense and love story Only Moon Can Tell but the editor said starlight didn't want to sell it.

But Starlight just sold it to Shining Stars Entertainment not long ago.

Dillon was confused then but now he figured it out at the news that Starry was the Starlight.

She must have sold it for Filip.

Dillon called Filip when he realized it.

Filip just finished his work and sat there with an indifferent look, looking at the phone ringing.

About 30 seconds later the phone finally stopped ringing and it started to ring again in several seconds.

Filip frowned, picked it up, and said impatiently, "Is Hallowflame Entertainment going down?"

Hearing Filip's words, Dillon got angrier, "You are going down. I won't even when you are."

Filip didn't have the mood to argue with him, "I give you three seconds."

Dillon cursed, "Have you checked Twitter? Starry is the Starlight!"

"So?"

Filip said in a normal voice which made Dillon mad, "Starlight! That popular writer! I tried to get her copyright many times but failed! That Starlight!"

Filip didn't understand what Dillon was trying to say. He and Starry were divorced so it had nothing to do with him even if she was the daughter of the world's richest person.

"Dillon, if you have nothing else to do, you can be a paparazzo for your company."

"Filip, how could you say that?! I didn't get that because of you! Starlight was Starry! We've known each other for years now, and she wouldn't even give me a chance to talk to her and turn me down because you hurt her!"

"She hates me because of you! You got it?"

Dillon got more furious but Filip didn't reply so he wasn't quite confident about what he said, "So, how do you make it up to me?"

Hearing this, Filip replied, "Why don't you think it was just you?"

Filip hung up as he said it.

Dillon was furious about Filip hanging up the phone. He regretted knowing Filip for so many years and just like brothers.

After hanging up the phone, Filip laughed a little as he thought Dillon was childish.

What did Filip have to do with this?

But he surely was annoyed at the thought of seeing Starry and Edward at the front door of the station when he drove Lilly off to the live show on Christmas Eve.

Filip got annoyed thinking about what Starry said that day.

Looking at the brown desk, he frowned with an extremely cold face.

A minute later, Filip made a move and hit the internal phone button.

Taking this call, Austin was a bit surprised but stood up and knocked on the office door, "Mr. Pearson, you ask for me?"

"What happened to Starry online?"

Austin just knew this not long ago and he was struggling about whether to tell Filip or not but Filip asked first.

Austin took a glance at Filip and told him briefly about Starry being accused of plagiarizing with proof.

The interview of Edward on the live show had gone viral so Starry was getting their attention as she was said to be in a relationship with him and her name was quite similar to Starlight.

So they just guessed that Starry was Starlight which called for proof. And accidentally someone found that Edward followed Starlight and Starry Bradley. They then found the hand in the signing photo of Starlight was the same as the one in a photo of Starry Bradley's back with her hand three years ago.

They compared these two photos and found the same mole on the index finger of the left hand and the same scar on the right wrist which was proof that Starry was Starlight.

Starlight had millions of fans so it went trending.

It happened to be seen by a writer named Iris Young and then she posted a long article to accuse Starlight's shot-to-fame debut 'Make a Show' of plagiarizing her story 'Queen's Counterattack'.

So "Starry plagiarizing" went viral with other hot topics.

Filip leaned on his chair and slightly moved his legs casually with a cold face, "Go fix the trending topics and screen the keywords."

Austin was taken aback, "Mr. Pearson, wouldn't that be bad for Ms. Bradley..."

"So?"

"I suppose Ms. Bradley will take care of it herself."

Filip read between Austin's lines that Austin meant he was being nosy, and his face darkened, "I see, you can go."

Austin opened his mouth and was about to say something but he pressed his lips together and left seeing Mr. Pearson's stern face.
