Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 132

After hanging up the phone, Starry thought for a while and called Bentley Wood.

"Miss Bradley."

"Mr. Wood, good afternoon. Sorry to disturb you."

"Miss Bradley, you don't have to be so polite. Since you're Wyatt's friend, you're also my friend."

Starry was not a person who liked formalities. Since the other party had said so, she went straight to the point. "The family of the driver who caused the accident contacted me just now. They wanted to see me, but I refused."

As she spoke, she paused for a moment. "But I think the other party will come looking for me again."

"Miss Bradley, did you want to settle this behind the door?"

Bentley had long heard that the driver was from the Richards family. Even if Starry didn't call him, he would call her.

After the incident, Hamish was controlled by the police, and the results of the D.U.I. test was also released that night. He was not drunk.

He asked someone to ask about some news. The reason why Hamish drove over the speed limit in the urban area yesterday afternoon was that he was driving while playing with his mobile phone. He accidentally took the accelerator as a brake.

In the traffic accident last night, Starry was more slightly injured. Among the other two victims, one of them had just woken up this morning. He was injured in many parts of his body, three of his ribs were broken, and his left leg was crushed.

As for the other victim, his brain had suffered a heavy blow and he was still unconscious in the ICU. Even if he woke up, it was very likely that he would be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life.

This morning, the two representatives had accepted the solution offered by the Richards family. They issued an understanding letter and did not appeal.

Therefore, Starry was the only one left.

The reason why Bentley asked this question was not that he wanted Starry to accept it too.

Although the Richards family was very influential, the impact of yesterday's car accident was also very bad. The video was spread on the Internet, and it was already discussed by almost everyone in the past.

He just felt that if Starry didn't accept the solution, there was no need for her to see the Richards family.

Starry thought for a moment and asked, "Mr. Wood, do you mean that I should settle the case out of court?"

"No, Miss Bradley, you misunderstood."

Starry smiled and said, "I misunderstand. I get what you mean. I will try my best to avoid meeting with the family."

"Miss Bradley is smart."

"Thank you."

After hearing Bentley's words, Starry understood what he meant.

However, she didn't intend to meet with the Richards family, be it the old Mr. Richard or Hamish.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Filip arrived on time.

More than two hours ago, the unpleasant conversation between the two of them caused Filip to come to pick her up this time. His face was cold all the way and he barely talked to her.

Starry had married him for the past five years, she had gotten used to this. It was better than that he cared for her.

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped outside the Pearsons' old house.

Filip carried her into the house. Frances and Martha had been waiting on the second floor early in the morning.

Frances only heard from Filip that Starry had a car accident and had a fracture. However, as for how serious it was, he didn't explain it in detail.

The old lady looked stern, but in fact, she was warm-hearted.

Seeing that Starry's calf was covered with gauze, the old lady frowned and asked, "Why does it look so serious?"

Martha chimed in, "It does look a little scary."

Starry was carried by Filip and placed on the sofa. She sat down and adjusted her sitting position. Then she looked at Frances and said, "It looks serious, but it's okay."

The old lady glanced at Starry and said, "Didn't you say it was a fracture?"

Starry smiled and said, "It's not serious. It's just a minor fracture."
