Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute

Chapter 11 Someone That's Not Worth Mentioning

Starry might seem indecisive, but she was actually a very determined and assertive person.

In her point of view, with her divorce with Filip, the agreement she had signed before that had become

invalid, so she had nothing to do with Filip whether legally or personally.

Starry had no interest in Lucia's relationship with Filip. She didn't want to know whether she was a

friend or what kind of relationship she had with Filip either.

It was a clean and clear breakup, from which she realized that what had happened during those fives

was just a dream she had woven for herself. Now she woke up from that dream, and everything should

be back to the start.

Starry didn't want to get involved with Filip or anyone related to him.

With only one look at Lucia, Starry turned her eyes away impassively.

Lucia, however, called Starry and spoke to her, "Mrs. Pearson, oh, sorry, I forgot, you are divorced, so

it's Ms. Bradley now."

That was a very provocative opening.

Catherine frowned as she had heard that, but she wasn't Starry, so she could just watch.

Wyatt looked at the two women with an interested look on his face.

He was drawn by the scene.

Starry gave Lucia another glance as if she had not heard the provocation, nodding and saying hi to her

naturally. "Ms. Scott."

Lucia recognized Wyatt right away. They were not close but at least had met before as people working

in the same business.

With Starry's total ignorance of Lucia's provocation, Lucia lost interest and said, "Since you have

friends here. I might as well leave you alone."

With that, she glanced Starry and Wyatt significantly before walking away in her heels.

The glance was too explicit that it irritated Catherine so much. If Wyatt and Mr. Berry hadn't been

around, she would have sworn at her.

Starry got her eyes off Lucia and smiled slightly at Wyatt as if nothing had happened, and then

continued to walk on.

Watching Starry's back, Wyatt tutted and raised his eyebrow. "Interesting."

He smiled and followed after Starry.

The group stopped as they reached the hotel, and after some pleasantries, Starry and Catherine got in

the car.

With his hands in his pockets, Wyatt watched Starry through the car window. She was lying back on the

chair idly, and smiled when Catherine spoke to her. Her smile was soft but striking.

"What do you think, Mr. Matthews?"

Wyatt withdrew his gaze off Starry when he had heard Mr. Berry. "Ms. Bradley is a smart person. Get

ready. It won't take long for her to send the contract back to you."

Wyatt said to Mr. Berry and took the key over from a doorman and matched toward a Maybach parked Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

not very far away.

Catherine stared at Starry, who had been smiling, and said, "Ms. Bradley, sometimes you need to show

your temper a little bit."

Starry raised her pretty eyebrow and asked, "You mean to Lucia?"

Catherine nodded. "That Lucia seems to be a tough nut. The first thing she said to you was so mean."

Starry smiled and said, "She's just someone that's not worth mentioning."

Catherine paused for a while and then looked at her with mixed feelings of admiration and

helplessness.

She was so positive.

Actually, Starry didn't think of her as a positive person, but she just didn't feel like arguing with her.

Lucia was one of those people who would keep making trouble with you if you reacted to their words as

expected.

Starry could just ignore her offensive remarks.

She had got divorced with Filip anyway, so they wouldn't get to meet very often.

Starry hung her head, opened the contract and signed her name before handing it to Catherine.

"Please send it to the Shining Stars after a couple of days."

Catherine was a little confused. "Now that you have decided to sign it anyway, why didn't you just do it

when we were in the booth?"

Starry put the cap back on and grabbed her purse back, saying, "It's a win-win deal. I don't want to

make it seem like we are indebted to them."

The both sides were just utilizing each, so there was no need to be urgent in case the other thought

she was cheap.

Catherine wasn't stupid, she soon figured it out. "You are incredible."

Starry smiled, turned away her head and looked out of the car window.

Somehow, the city she had lived in for nearly ten years seemed to be increasingly strange to her.

Catherine stared at her, she got the feelings that although Starry often smiled, but no delight was

shown in her smile.

The more Catherine was around her, the more she felt sad for her.

Lucia wouldn't feel the same thing for Starry. She couldn't wait to see her life getting worse after the

divorce, and the calmness gone from her face.

She had expected Starry to be as low-key enough to stay at home as possible, so that she could give

Starry a few more kicks to push her deeper into the miserable pit.

However, things didn't go as Lucia had expected. It had only been half a month since the divorce, and

Starry was already seen with Mr. Matthews, the heir of Shining Stars Entertainment. How interesting.

Lucia lifted her eyebrow and took out her phone to call the private detective.

It's been a week, so they should have got the result of the investigation into the history of Starry and

Edward.

The private detective was quick to answer the phone. "Ms. Scott, what a coincidence. I was to call

you."

As soon as she heard that, Lucia knew that the result had come out. "You got it?"

"Yes, and I have found out a lot of things. I'm sure you will be satisfied."

The smile on her face grew bigger as she heard that. "OK. Then send me the materials. And don't

worry about the money as long as it's the thing that I'm interested in."

"I'm not worried at all. Of course I trust you about the money. One purse of yours is worth what we earn

for a whole year. I will send them to you this afternoon after I have put them in order."

Lucia was happy to hear the flattery. "OK."

Lucia was in a great mood after hanging up the phone. When she was to call her friend to go shopping

with her, her phone rang.

She frowned as she saw the caller. "What's the matter, Hudson?"

The caller sounded worried and said, "Ms. Scott, Mr. Pearson's secretary has been trying to find out

who spread the rumor about you and Mr. Pearson."

Lucia froze a second, but then she snapped out of it and composed herself. "Relax, we didn't do that."

"But..."
