Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 116

Starry was caught in the rain last week when she went to the cemetery and she did not take off her wet clothes in time after she went home, which almost got her a sold.

Therefore, she felt sick when she had her menses now.

When Filip said he knew the reasons why she would help Hamish, she felt there was a machine stirring in her womb, making her too painful to talk.

She bit her lips to endure the pain. She looked pale and what Filip said annoyed her more than ever, so she let anger color her voice, "Why?"

She took the pillow beside and put it on her stomach, trying to suppress the pain.

Yet, it did not work.

Filip noticed the paleness on Starry's face, "Are you really Okay?"

Starry drank some hot water and said, "It's just the menses."

Filip was startled. He had no idea that women would endure such a great pain when experiencing menses. He wondered whether Starry was the only one in the world that would have to endure it.

Coldness was one of the greatest enemies of women.

Starry still wanted to behave appropriately when facing Filip. Yet, the pain in her womb deprived her of her last energy.

She could not maintain her posture anymore, so she curled up into a ball and leaned her body against the sofa entirely.

Almost lying on the sofa, Starry heavily bit her lips, not aware that her teeth nearly hurt herself.

Her forehead began to sweat. She frowned, turning paler and paler.

She was so painful that she was now in a daze. Seeing that Filip walked towards her, she subconsciously knitted her eyebrows and said, "Maybe we can have our talk next time. I think you should leave me alone now."

She had no power to talk with him anymore.

"Em."

He responded and slightly touched her forehead.

Starry involuntarily looked at him and their eyes met. She could even see her own reflection in his dark eyes.

She took a small breath and supported herself to sit up straight, "Maybe you should go home now."

She felt better now and she tried to recover her composure both on her face and in her tone.

However, she still looked scaringly pale. Her lips seemed to be covered by some frost and there was no sparkle in her eyes anymore, which made Filip hard to believe that she was only experiencing her menses instead of some other serious illnesses.

Filip's fingers shivered a little and then he directly carried Starry up from the sofa into his hug.

She was still holding the glass and his hug nearly made her spill the water.

Starry tried to push him away, "Filip, what are you doing?"

She was now in a bad mood because of the pain, so more anger could be felt in her voice.

Whereas, she sounded weak and powerless.

Filip grabbed the coat to wrap her, "You should see a doctor."

"No!"

She objected, "Put me down."

Filip retorted, "But you look sick."

Biting the pain back, Starry stared at him coldly, "So what? I don't see how that is any of your business."

He looked up without replying and was about to carry her out of her villa.

Starry shrugged the coat away and, when he was about to go downstairs, threw the glass of water straight in his face, "I told you to put me down."

The hot water was cold now, and, on such a snowy day, it made Filip's face also cold soon.

The water ran down from his face across his own neck and also dripped to Starry's chest.

It was surprising that Filip did not become angry. He kept staring at her.
