Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 100

Starry always kept a low profile. If she hadn't been plotted against by Lucia, she wouldn't have been frequently made the trending topic.

Starry seldom made her public appearance, so the channel about the opening ceremony attracted increased attention.

And the roses quickly made her an "internet celebrity".

Many A-list celebrities attended the opening ceremony, and Sienna got onto What's Trending as well.

Sienna was always reserved and distant in front of the public. However, according to the pictures, it was obvious that she greatly admired Starry.

Some people turned to Sienna's fans because of her change while some began to hate her.

What was worse, some of Sienna's crazy fans blamed all this on Starry and began to condemn Starry.

Some even said Starry had the roses delivered herself to attract some attention.

As what happened at the opening ceremony became a heated discussion, different people held different opinions.

Starry got popular due to her beauty while the roses were regarded as the hype.

Almost everyone was talking about this on the Internet. In the villa, before Starry could decide where to place the bouquet of roses, she received a call from Catherine.

As Starry attracted increased attention, Starry's past was exposed, and Catherine was to ask Starry if she needed to deal with it.

"Let me find out what's happening first."

"Well, it had become a trending topic that we might not be able to stop its spreading."

"It's fine."

Hanging up the phone, Starry called Dillon.

This was related to the opening ceremony, so she naturally should contact Dillon to know what Dillion would do to deal with it.

Dillon was also planning to contact Starr. He didn't expect the opening ceremony to draw such a large amount of attention.

It was great to be so known, but many people were condemning Starry.

Dillon was protective of Starry. As her partner, he couldn't bear to read what those people said on the Internet. Thus, he began to take action.

When Dillon received Starry's call, he told Starry that he had asked someone to deal with it.

"That's good. Thank you, Mr. Baxter."

"It's just a piece of cake."

Starry could tell that Dillon was at a dinner party, so she hung up the phone without saying anything else.

After that, she received a call from Hamish on Facebook.

Starry took a look at the roses, put Hamish on speaker, put the phone on the table, and went into the kitchen.

"Miss Bradley, it's me. I'm Hamish."

"Just go ahead."

Starry poured herself a glass of water and resumed her chair.

"I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to cause so much trouble for you."

Starry took a sip of water. "Hamish."

She said indifferently, "I'm not as good-tempered as you think."

Hamish paused for a moment and then said, "I'm sorry."

"Do you know why I signed you?"

Starry didn't want to beat around the bush.

Hamish was curious, "Why?"

"Because you look like someone."

"I know."

"No, you know nothing."

Starry lowered her head and pulled a petal. "You'd better behave yourself from now on, or I'll terminate the contract right away."

After saying that, Starry hung up the phone without hesitation.

Hamish frowned. It was his first time to see Starry angry.

Catherine came over and looked at Hamish with a long face. "Are those roses from you?"

Hamish looked up at Catherine and didn't deny it.

Catherine got even angrier. "I warned you not to go too far, Hamish."

"I'm sorry. I didn't expect to cause her so much trouble."

Catherine grunted. "I know her well. And if it happens again, you will definitely be kicked out of Archangel Pictures."

Catherine was exasperated. After saying that, she turned around and went out.

Hamish got serious. He took out his cell phone and called Harris.

Almost everyone knew Abou the roses, so even people in Eternal Group were talking about it during lunch break.

When Filip arrived at the company, he didn't go up to his office, but sat in the lobby and waited for Austin to bring him the documents.

Filip sat in the corner of the couch. The couch was long, wide, and semi-circular, so no one noticed his presence.

The employees who had dined out came back in groups, gossiping, which sounded very clear in the empty hall.

"Admittedly, Starry looks really beautiful. If I were a man, I would chase her as well!"

"It's normal for a beauty like her to receive roses, but it was at the opening ceremony. Frankly speaking, I also think it was just a show."

"I don't think she had to do that. As a writer, she was famous enough. Besides, she always stays a low profile and seldom made her public appearance!"

"Not necessarily! After all, one can do whatever it takes for money!"

...

When Austin brought the file down, Filip was reading something on his phone. He stood next to him and remained silent until Filip looked up at him. "Mr. Pearson, here's the contract."

Filip gave Austin a look. "Call the driver to drive over here."

Austin glanced at Filip and somehow felt that Filip seemed in a bad mood.

Austin was confused. The business meeting about collaboration went quite smoothly. And it took only ten minutes for Austin to fetch the contract, so he didn't know what influenced Filip's mood.

"Okay."

Austin called the driver in confusion, and soon, he was sure that Filip was indeed in a bad mood.

After signing the contract, Filip asked Austin to decline the invitation to have dinner with the clients.

Austin knew that Filip was in a bad mood, so he dared not say anything and did as he was told.

On the way back to the company, Austin took out his cell phone and read the records of the chat group among the secretaries. Only then did Austin realize why Filip suddenly wore a long face.

Austin got more afraid and quietly opened the door for Filip.

Filip, who was napping, opened his eyes and gave Austin an expressionless look. Instead of saying something, Filip got out of the car directly.

For the next few days, everyone working in the Eternal Group's president's office had a hard time.

Starry did not make any response. With Dillon's and Catherine's PR efforts, the topic was brushed under the carpet, finally.

Starry did not care about it, either. With the fickle weather, she caught a cold. Suffering for three days, Starry had a fever.

Starry had no choice but to drive to the hospital alone. Even the doctor was a little hesitant to prescribe her a drip.

Starry was fine with it. After paying the fee, she began to wait in the infusion room.
