Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 126

Just as the Pearsons started dinner, Filip got a phone call.

Seeing him leave with his phone, Frances frowned and was a bit dissatisfied. "Is he really that busy?"

Florence smiled. "It's a large company and he is managing it all by himself."

As soon as she finished her words, Filip had hung up the phone and got back. "Grandma, there's an emergency. I have to skip dinner. I will have dinner with you next time."

As he said, he looked at Florence. "Aunt Florence, I have to go now."

He was with a sullen face after the phone call. Obviously, something huge had happened.

Although Frances had just complained about Filip, she was not an unreasonable person. Seeing the look on his face, she said, "Go ahead, be careful on the way."

Taking a look at her, Filip nodded, "I will, Grandma."

Then he walked out.

Looking at his back, Frances said, "I wonder what has happened."

Filip seldom looked this anxious.

He walked to the garage and drove his car out of the mansion.

On the way, he drove at the fastest speed.

The call was not from Austin, but Dillon. He said Starry was in the hospital.

It took him about 20 minutes to get to the hospital. The sky was complete dark, he didn't even take his coat.

It was not until he got off the car and the cold wind blew on him that he finally felt cold.

However, he didn't mind it and walked straight into the hospital.

Story was already bandaging her wound by the time Izabella and Dillon got here.

Izabella searched around the orthopedics department before she found Starry. She ran over as soon as she saw Starry. "What happened, Starry?"

God knew how scared she was when she got Starry's call.

Starry looked at her, "It was an accident."

The doctor had finished bandaging her wound, while writing a prescription, she reminded Starry, "Try not to walk around, okay? If you want to recovery soon."

Hearing the doctor's words, Izabella asked, "Doctor, how's my friend? Is it serious?"

"It's not very serious, she had a bone fracture in her shin and she needs to stay in bed to recover. Take care of your friend, and don't let her use this leg."

Starry had held a crutch, "Isabella, let's talk outside."

Although the doctor had said that it was not very serious, hearing that Starry had a bone fracture, Isabella frowned, walked over and supported Starry. "What happened exactly? How did you get a bone fracture?"

Holding the crutch, Starry walked out of the doctor's office. Her shin had been bandaged and it hurt less now, but she could still feel pain.

She sat on the chair. "When I was making a turn, a car rushed over. To avoid crashing into it, I had to avoid it and my car hit a tree."

The car was driving at least 100 miles per hour, if she didn't manage to avoid it, she might be somewhere else rather than the hospital now.

Although she explained it only in the few words, Isabella was frightened. "Did the driver get away?"

"No, the police got there earlier than the ambulance did. The car hit the street light."

"So, are you going to the police department now?"

"Yes."

Starry answered and took out her phone. "I have to call Bentley."

Luckily, the green light was on at that moment and she was sitting in the front seat, the cars next to hers hadn't started yet. Otherwise, even if she reacted quickly and avoided the rushing car, she might hit someone else's car.

The speed on the road was limited to 80 miles per hour, but the driver drove so fast. It couldn't be just an accident. Therefore, she needed a lawyer.

"You do need to call Bentley. That guy drove so fast, did he want to kill you?"

Isabella gritted her teeth. If it weren't for the fact that Starry reacted quickly, she might be dead by now.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she was. Isabella wanted to talk to Dillon and asked him to find out who the driver was.

But as soon as she turned her head, she found that Dillon was gone.

Dillon didn't leave the hospital. Philip was calling him and asking him where they were.

He looked around and could tell exactly where they were. But he wasn't far away from the hospital gate, so he went out to look for Filip.

When he saw Filip, he was stoned, "You must have come in a hurry."

It was cold at night, but Filip didn't even wear a coat.

Filip glanced at him. "Where is Starry?"

"Right in there." Dillon touched his nose and said nothing more. He then took Filip to Starry.

There weren't many people in the hospital at this hour, the doctors had gotten off work and there were much less patients in the hospital. Most of the patients here now had emergencies, just like Starry.

Filip saw Starry sitting on a chair at a glance. And of course, he saw her bandaged shin.

The white gauze wrapped her whole shin all the way to her ankle and she wasn't wearing a shoe in her other foot. Her toes were red because of the coldness.

She was lowering her head and talking to Isabella in a gentle voice.

She had just been in an accident and she could tell what had happened in such a calm manner.

The lights above her head fell on her, making her face look gentle.

Looking at her like this, Filip swallowed and his Adam's apple bubbled. "What happened?"

He asked Dillon.

Dillon shrugged his shoulders, "I have no idea. When we arrived, the doctor has finished bandaging her wound for her."

As Starry was talking, she sensed someone gazing at her. She raised her head and found Filip here.

Noticing her sight, Isabella looked over. Seeing Filip, she curled up her lips and spoke. "How did he get here?"

After that, she saw Dillon next to Filip. "It must be Dillon who told him!"

At this time, Filip had walked to them. "Is it serious?"

He looked at Starry's shin and asked.

"It's not very serious."

Just as Starry finished her words, a policeman came over and asked her to the police department.

Isabella frowned. "Sir, she can't go to the police department with her shin like this."

The policeman also frowned when he looked at Starry's shin. "But she has to be there. This is a serious accident."

When Isabella was going to say something more, Starry said, "It's okay. I can go."

As she said, she stood up with the crutch.

"But the doctor has said that you have to stay in bed…"

"I will carry you." Just then, Filip said.
