Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 131

Starry didn't sleep well last night, so he was not in a good mood today.

After ordering the takeout, she ran into Filip carrying the food from the Pearson's.

When she was put on the sofa, the smile on her face almost faded away.

Starry looked at him as he put the insulated box on the coffee table. She raised her eyes and looked into his black eyes. "Mr. Pearson, you said you want to have a talk last time. What do you want to talk about?"

Hearing her words, the man's Adam's apple bobbed. His hands stopped and he tightened the unscrewed lid. He sat down on the sofa and looked at Starry inquired, "What do you think I want to talk about?"

He had always liked to be the leader in a relationship, although he now felt a little guilty in front of Starry.

Starry looked at him. He seemed to have became the Filip in that five years.

"I'm more used to you being like this."

These words were like a ball of cotton that was forcefully stuffed in his throat, causing him to choke and feel uncomfortable.

He restrained his expression, put his hand on his knee, and tapped it lightly. "Or, you know what I want to talk about."

Starry wanted to drink some water, but the water in the cup was already cold. She licked her lips slightly and said, "I don't like to guess others' thoughts. I ask you again, what do you want to talk about? Today is a good opportunity."

After that, she hesitated for a moment, then picked up the glass of cold water and handed it to him. "Can you pour me a glass of hot water?"

When he heard her words, he rarely raised his eyebrows. "I thought you wanted to jump on your own."

He took the cup from her hand, got up, and went to the hot kettle on the stage to mix half a cup of hot water for her.

The water was warm. Starry took the cup and drank most of it. "Although I don't know why you suddenly changed your attitude toward me, I don't think it's because you have feelings for me."

"Why do you think it's not?"

Starry was stunned for a moment. What he said was so straightforward that she couldn't take it anymore.

The two looked at each other, as if neither of them was willing to be the "loser" in this love game.

Finally, Starry broke the silence. "You shouldn't have had feelings for me."

Her words were a statement, but there was still some doubt in her tone.

However, whether it was a statement or a question, Starry's words showed her attitude.

Filip looked into Starry's eyes. Her eyes were very beautiful. She used to smile when she looked at him, and her smile was full of moving emotions.

However, her eyes were as calm as the surface of a lake without wind.

Seeing him looking at herself, Starry pursed his lips and said, "Our cooperation is over."

He had never been rejected like this in his entire life.

He had been God's favored one since he was a child, and there were countless people chasing him.

He had rejected countless people since junior high school.

He had never been a pestered person. "You don't have to worry about this. I understand what you mean. I'm not a pestered person."

"Thank you."

Filip's expression was a little cold. "I've delivered the meal. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to the company. I'll pick you up at about three o'clock."

As he spoke, he got up and was about to leave.

"Ok."

Starry responded faintly and sat on the sofa, looking at his back. It was not until Filip's back disappeared at the corner of the stairs that she breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't know why he had feelings for her, which made her feel incredible.

Filip walked down the stairs with a sullen face. Starry's words were full of refusal.

She was not being reserved. She was refusing seriously.

This annoyed him and made him feel sour and uncomfortable.

How could a person who used to love him so much become so ruthless to him in just one year?

He couldn't figure it out.

He wouldn't even think about it!

Back in the car, he looked out of the window at the gate of the villa with a sullen face.

Filip watched for a few minutes before he drove away.

Back in the Internal Group, black clouds covered him. Seeing this, Austin immediately became energetic. "Boss, your meeting at three o'clock has been pushed to four o'clock in the afternoon."

Without raising his head, he opened the door and entered the office.

Austin didn't dare to follow in, so he stopped in front of the office.

"Austin, what happened to Mr. Pearson?"

Austin shook his head. "I don't know what's going on either. Be smart today."

"I see, Mr. Roberson."

He was fine before he went out, but why did his mood changed in less than half an hour?

Not long after Filip left, the takeout ordered by Starry came over. It was snowing outside. She didn't want to jump down to get the takeout, so she asked the person who sent this to eat the takeout directly.

Because the takeout she ordered was quite expensive, the man for takeaway thought that it was so late that Starry wanted to send it back, so he kept apologizing on the phone.

Starry was a typical person who can be persuaded by reason but not be cowed by force. The reason why she was so tough with Filip just now was that she had been angry before.

The man of takeaway had been apologizing all the time, and all the anger in her heart had disappeared. She had no choice but to explain. After more than two minutes, the man believed that she really didn't want this takeout and thanked her again and again.

After hanging up the phone, Starry opened the insulated box brought by Filip.

There were three dishes and one soup. The Frances didn't like to drink chicken soup. It should be specially made for her by the Pearsons.

Although Filip was not a good man, Frances really treated her well.

At about two o'clock in the morning, the doorbell suddenly rang in the quiet villa.

Starry picked up the remote control and stopped the movie. He walked to the side and turned on the visual doorbell of the villa.

It wasn't Filip.

She frowned. She didn't really want to go downstairs and open the door.

At the same time, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

Starry glanced at it and saw another strange number.

However, this strange number seemed to have called her in the morning, but she hadn't woken up at that time and hadn't answered it.

Starry picked up the phone with his cane. "Hello, I'm Starry."

"Hello, Miss Bradley. My surname is Francis, and I am the assistant of Old Mr. Richards of the Richards of Rotomagus City."

"The Richards of Rotomagus City?"

"Hamish Richards?"

"Did Mr. Francis make the wrong call?"

"Miss Bradley, the car that caused your car accident last night was driven by Hamish. I heard that you were injured, so Old Mr. Richards came to visit you today."

"I have no relationship with the Richards family. I have already handed over the case of my car accident to my lawyer. I'm not in good health, so I won't go downstairs to receive old Mr. Richards, so please go back."

"Miss Bradley, you..."

Before he could finish his words, Starry hung up the phone.

Old Mr. Richards sat in the car and waited a little impatiently. "What's wrong? Isn't she at home today?"

"No, Miss Bradley said that she has handed the matter over to the lawyer. Besides, she is not in good health, so she won't go downstairs to receive you..."

Old Mr. Richards' face immediately darkened. "She's refusing my visit!"

Erik didn't know what to say. "Sir, should we look for Mr. Hamish Richards about this?"

Old Mr. Richards thought for a while with a dark face. "Let's go to Hamish's place!"

If Starry didn't want to see him, she wouldn't refuse to see Hamish Richards, would she?!
