Chapter 52 Do You Love Filip?
It was about the marriage contract between Starry and Filip.
It was bigger news than Lucia’s slandering of Starry. After all, Filip had a huge number of admirers. If he nodded, countless ladies from rich families would marry him.
Ladies in Araria City had been jealous of Starry for so many years and now it turned out their marriage was fake…
Filip would rather marry a poor girl than the young ladies from rich families in Araria City.
They would feel better if Filip had married Starry for love.
“I thought this kind of thing only happens in novels.”
“If it was a contract marriage, why did Ms. Scott hate Ms. Bradley so much?”
“You got the point! Thinking of what happened in past days, I have proper reasons to suspect that this was Ms. Scott’s trick!”
“But the signature is real… I compared it with Starry handwriting. The way the letters were written is the same!”
“Things about these rich people are getting so interesting these days, even more mind-blowing than news about stars.”
“Well, I don’t even know how to comment now.”
……
Things went viral on the internet and TikTok in just a few hours. Starry, Filip and Lucia were once again on the trend.
Dillon and the other guys were stunned. Filip didn’t talk much about his relationship with Starry. Frances introduced a lot of girls to Filip back then. And Filip took Starry home directly. Then they got married.
The wedding was simple. The Pearson family was influential, but they didn’t invite a lot of guests. The wedding was held in a resort belonging to the Foster family.
There were relatives and friends present. At that time, Dillon did not think much. He thought the wedding looked simple because Filip never liked troubles.
Now in retrospect, there were actually a lot of weird things.
No one knew if the news were true. Even if it was, why would Filip let this happen?
Dillon called Filip to prove it.
However, the phone was hung up as soon as it was connected, Dillon took a sigh of relief, not daring to call again.
Dillon was right not to call again. Filip’s office was once again as cold as an ice cave.
Austin stood in front of the desk, not daring to look at Flip.
There are only a few people knew about Filip and Starry’s fake marriage. But today, everyone knew about it.
Filip hadn’t spoken for more than a minute, he looked grim.
After reading the post, he looked at Austin. “Within an hour, find out who did this.”
“Okay, Mr. Pearson.”
Austin nodded hurriedly.
Filip tugged at the tie, gloomy and cold.
The phone rang, and Austin hurriedly said, “Mr. Pearson, I’ll go take care of it now.”
Filip looked at the phone on the table silently and picked it up. “Aunt Martha?”
It was Martha calling. She said, “Mr. Pearson, if you have time, go back to the Pearson residence. Your grandmother fainted, but the doctor said she is fine.”
“I see, I’ll go back in the evening.”
Frances fainted. Although it was no big deal, she woke up with an angry face.
Martha naturally knew what Frances was angry about. It turned out Starry and Filip’s marriage was just a show.
Frances had always treated Starry as her granddaughter-in-law. All of her dissatisfaction were based on the premise that Starry was to be a hostess of the Pearson family in the future.
Now it turned out Starry was just an “actress” that Filip paid to make her happy.
Frances couldn’t accept this fact.
Austin was efficient. But it wasn’t difficult to find out who posted the news this time.
Only Filip had the agreement. So, it must be someone in the company who leaked it.
Not many people in the company could enter Filip’s office. The person must have taken the agreement away when there was no one in the office.
Austin quickly thought of Lucia. That was the right clue. His suspicion was soon confirmed.
He showed Filip the results of the investigation. Filip wasn’t unsurprised. He snorted, “I see.”
He had been too good to the Scott family.
Starry’s got endless phone calls today. She was good-tempered. She answered every call.
Of course, she hung up those from shameless people like Dillon immediately.
She had just talked to Edward when Izabella’s call came.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Starry rubbed her temples, Lucia did a good job.
“Izabella.”
She turned on the speaker, put the phone on the table, took an apple, and peeled it patiently.
“Starry, have you seen all that online?”
“Yup.”
“Is it true? Didn’t you really marry Filip for love?”
“Yup.”
Starry responded softly.
Izabella gasped, and then she fell silent. “Do you love Filip?”
Hearing that, Starry paused. The apple skin was broken.
“Nope.”
She peeled the rest of the apple, then cut it into small pieces and put them on the small plate in front of her, took a small fork, and put a piece in her mouth.
Izabella fell silent, and after a while, she said, “That’s really cool!”
Starry smiled, “Really?”
“Yeah, lest they keep saying that you’re going to beg Filip to remarry you!”
Izabella hadn’t dared to say those words before, but now things were different.
Starry didn’t love Filip, which couldn’t be better!
Although the news about Starry and Filip’s marriage agreement went viral. The development of public opinion was completely opposite to Lucia’s expectations.
People online did not scold Starry. Some even praised Starry for being smart. He paid her for five years and once the contract was invalid, she divorced him. She didn’t ask for more and didn’t have any wishful thinking.
Lucia almost dropped her phone seeing the comments.
However, her purpose was mainly to let Frances know it. So, she didn’t care much about what people said online.
She just wanted France to know the true face of Starry!
