Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 51

Starry turned and left. Lucia was a little anxious. "Starry, I know your marriage with Filip was fake."

Starry almost reached the corner. Hearing Lucia's words, she frowned. "What do you mean, Ms. Scott?"

Lucia snorted coldly, "Now you want to talk?"

Starry looked at her and smiled. "Ms. Scott, are you proud because you know something amazing?"

She said, pausing. "But no matter what you say, Filip and I have divorced, and I don't like to talk about the past."

Did Lucia know about her agreement to marry Filip?

Starry looked up and noticed that, although Lucia was a bit angry, the joy in her eyes was obvious.

She must know it.

But so, what?

Starry didn't care.

Starry walked inside the villa.

"Starry! Aren't you afraid that I'll make this public? What do you think old Mrs. Person would do after she knew about it..."?

Lucia had expected Starry to stop and talk to her. But before she could finish speaking, Starry had disappeared.

Her view was blocked. She couldn't even see Starry anymore.

Lucia blushed with rage, and she kicked the door in front of her.

But the iron barricade was so hard that it hit Lucia with a sharp pang.

She held on to the door, barely able to stand up straight.

She thought to herself that everything about Starry is cheap and disgusting!

Lucia drove away angrily.

Starry went back and took out the shrimp she bought in the morning. They were still alive. She cleansed them.

She would have shrimp for lunch.

At the same time, Filip, who had just finished the meeting, came out of the elevator with a cold face.

He was in a bad mood today, but someone dared to annoy him.

Austin followed up without even daring to breathe, let alone speak.

Albert saw Filip return and said stiffly, "Mr. Pearson."

"What?"

Filip glanced at him and walked straight into the office, sitting down on his chair.

There was a strong smell of perfume in the air, Filip frowned, even angrier. "Who came here?"

His tone was bone-chilling.

Albert froze. Austin gave him a look.

"It was Ms. Scott. She came an hour ago. You were in a meeting, so she waited in the office for a while and then left."

Albert looked at Filip and suddenly didn't dare to continue.

The man looked up at him. "You watched someone enter the office without permission! Robertson, tell HR that Albert wouldn't get his bonus at the end of the year."

Albert didn't dare to say anything, compared to the dismissal, Filip was being merciful.

"Okay, Mr. Pearson." Said Austin immediately.

With that, he hurried out with Albert.

Albert hesitated. Austin pulled him out of the office.

Austin glanced at Filip, whose head was slightly lowered, looking cold.

He carefully closed the door, not daring to look again,

Closing the door, Austin looked at Albert. "Mr. Pearson is in a bad mood today, were you crazy just now?"

Filip asked them to leave, why didn't Albert move?

Albert was brought in by Austin. He said to Austin, "There is one thing I didn't say. Ms. Scott asked me to say sorry to Mr. Pearson for her."

Austin grimaced, "Do you work for Ms. Scott or the Eternal Group guy? If you don't know, I guess you shouldn't be here."

Albert was shocked, "I'm sorry, Mr. Robertson."

Austin glanced at him. "Remember, no matter who comes, as long as you are there, no one would enter the office."

"I see."

Austin did not say anything more seeing that Albert had a good attitude toward his mistakes. "How long has Ms. Scott been there?"

"Forty minutes or so."

"I see. Go back to your work."

Austin nodded, looking at Albert's back and he suddenly thought of something. "Wait! I need to correct my words."

Albert didn't understand. "Mr. Robertson?"

"You can't let anyone else in except for one person."

"The Old Mrs. Pearson?"

Austin was a little annoyed. "Ms. Bradley."

Albert was puzzled. "Why, sir? Aren't they divorced?"

"Just do as I said"

Austin waved his hand. Albert went back to work, not daring to ask more.

After one night and morning, Lucia had become notorious online.

Lucia was angry after being ignored by Starry, so she asked Kayla and Sophie out for lunch.

The three went shopping after lunch but were recognized. Someone took videos and photos and posted them on the Internet. Lucia was attacked online again.

At night, Lucia was so angry to see the trending topics.

Henry asked her if Filip forgave her. Lucia made up an answer.

After several days, the thing was still discussed on the internet. The Scotts had no choice but to suppress it by spreading some rumors about another star.

In the circle, however, Lucia's affairs were well known.

The day after the topic disappeared online, Lucia received a summons from the court.

Starry sued her.

If Starry succeeds, Lucia would at least go to jail for a while.

Seeing the summons, Henry's face immediately changed. "Starry went too far. Does she think she is somebody now because she was once Mrs. Pearson?"

Lucia's mother, Iris Gibson, had always hated Starry, and in her opinion, if it were not for Starry, Lucia would have married Filip a long time ago. "This bitch doesn't know when to stop!"

Lucia sat down on the sofa angrily, "Dad, Mom, just wait, I'll make Starry regret it!"

"Since she chose to do this, then don't blame me." she thought to herself.

Henry frowned. "This woman is not simple. Let me handle her for you."

Lucia shook her head and smiled, "Dad, don't worry, I have a plan already."

"What is it?" Iris asked.

Lucia smiled mysteriously, "Mom, you'll see when the time comes."

"Lucia, can't you even tell your parents!"

Seeing that Lucia was so confident, Henry didn't say anything more.

The next day, a post named "The secret of Mr. Pearson, the Chairman of the Eternal Group, and his ex-wife" exploded throughout Reddit at nine o'clock in the morning. And people soon started to discuss it on Twitter. It went to sixth place on the trending list at noon.
