Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 95

People in the meeting room were relieved after Filip left.

However, Austin could not sigh a relief because he was Filip's secretary and he was supposed to follow Filip wherever he went.

Following several feet behind Filip, Austin held his breath.

Filip entered the lift as it arrived.

Staff of the secretary department immediately sat up straight when they saw the rage on Filip's face as he passed by.

Once in the office, Filip turned around to gaze at Austin and commanded impatiently, frowning, "Shoot!"

"A staff of Flameheart just called. Their leader wanted to have a meal with you. Which time do you think is better, this week or next week?"

Filip answered without hesitation, "Turn them down."

"Got it. I'll tell them."

Filip did not respond. Austin fled from his office with business files without any other words.

People came over and crowded around Austin when he had just left Filip's office, "What happened to Mr. Pearson? Was there anything wrong during the meeting?"

Austin cast a look at the door of Filip's office to make sure Filip would not walk out of his office now. He whispered, "I have no idea. The business plan was not good enough and he was angry about it. Then, his phone suddenly buzzed and he was more furious after reading the message."

"I guess he'll stay angry for a long while."

"Who knows! Let's get back to work now. I hope I can go home soon!"

Indeed, no one wanted to infuriate Filip anymore.

Filip was alone in his office after Austin left.

He took up the phone and read the message again.

His phone buzzed again when he had just finished reading.

It was a call from the Pearson residence.

Eyebrows knitted, Filip picked up the call, "Aunt Martha."

"Young master, Lady Frances wants you to come home for dinner tonight."

Before he could answer, Martha added, "Today, the old lady asked someone to clean Ms. Bradley's room and they found something she left."

"Got it."

"Alright, good bye, sir."

After hanging up the call, Filip rubbed his temples heavily.

It was getting dark outside and his phone was silent.

Dillon did not send any other message to him since the last one ten minutes ago.

Filip picked up his phone and read the message one more time, turned off his phone and then turned it on again.

Again and again. He could not wait any longer, so he texted Dillon, "So you are the one who spread rumors now?"

Dillon did not text back as quickly as usual. He stared at the phone and grew more and more irritated.

Three minutes after he sent the text, he turned off the phone, put it back in his pocket and left the office.

He directly went to the Pearson residence after he left the company.

The dinner was ready. Frances greeted him, "Welcome home, Filip. Dinner is ready."

Lily was there too.

Lily did not dare to provoke Filip anymore, so she kept quiet throughout the dinner.

After their meal, Frances sat on the sofa eating fruits while Lilly browsing her phone.

Filip was peeling a pear. He did not like pears and he handed the peeled pear to Lily.

Lily was surprised and could not believe her eyes. She asked haltingly, "For… for me?"

"You can throw it away if you don't want it."

Filip took out a piece of tissue and wiped the pear juice on his fingers.
