Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 69

Dillon skimmed his lips, "Pity, such a tender place that would have belonged to you, oh, I won't talk about it."

This time, without waiting for Filip to say anything, Dillon consciously kept his mouth shut.

Filip cold face, is about to turn around and leave, but saw Starry who sat inside the car took a thermos bottle and handed it to Izabella.

Dark eyes darkened slightly, he frowned and lifted his legs and strutted towards his car.

When he got into the car, Filip remembered that he had been drinking, he raised his hand to rub his temples and took his cell phone to call a valet.

Izabella was not completely drunk. After Starry helped her to the car, she sat there, not looking drunk at all.

Starry pulled out a thermos from the side with the sober soup she had just cooked and brought out, "Is it hard, Izabella?"

Izabella shook her head and looked at a concerned Starry, she was a little embarrassed, "Little Starry, I'm actually not drunk."

She is a poor drinker, but not so poor as that.

But it was the sight of Filip that made her feel upset.

Regardless of whether Starry and Filip are married by agreement or not, but the past five years, Filip behaved too indifferently.

Sometimes Starry just cared enough to ask a thoughtful question, but he did not even give Starry a good look.

Not to mention that several times he was drunk, Starry went over to pick him up, and he asked the driver directly with a gloomy face where he was going.

The more outrageous one is Starry with sobriety soup over to pick him up, Starry is only kind, he does not drink, he does not drink others can drink ah, but he directly in front of Starry, the thermos bottle cap open, and then the inside of the sobriety soup all poured.

After so many years, they are these bystanders are unbearable, but he is not half compassionate.

It's too cold.

Starry uncapped the thermos, "Careful, it's a little hot."

She didn't seem to hear what Izabella had just said, always with a light smile on her face.

Those good-looking eyes inside like a lake blown by the wind, with beautiful ripples, so calm and gentle, making Izabella more and more embarrassed, "It's so late, and still let you out to make this trip, sorry, Little Starry."

Izabella wasn't completely drunk, but she was definitely drunk and hugged Starry like a baby.

Starry passed the thermos to her lips, "Can you drink it yourself?"

"Can~"

Izabella said, and reached for the thermos.

Just a sip and she was scalded.

Starry hurriedly pulled down the thermos, "It's a little hot."

"A little bit, not very hot."

"So you drink slowly?"

Izabella nodded, "Little Starry don't worry, I'm really not drunk."

Starry smiled, "So I'm driving?"

"OK!"

On the way, Izabella never stopped talking inside her mouth about Sophie and the girls.

Starry over the ears but not the heart, from time to time thoughtful to respond to a sentence or two.

When we got back to the cottage, Izabella was almost asleep, Starry helped her out of the car and assisted her to the guest room, "You're drunk, so don't take a shower tonight, go wash your face and go to sleep, okay?"

Izabella nodded, "Don't worry Little Starry, I'm really not completely drunk yet."

She kept stressing, but Starry thought she was drunk. She watched Izabella wash her face and change into her pajamas before Starry turned off the lights and left the guest room.

Before she left the house, she could still hear Izabella's crumbling voice.

Starry curled his lips, closed the door and turned back to his room.

After all this tossing and turning, it was already late, she packed up her things and went to wash up, also ready for bed.

It's night.

The upscale and spacious apartment looked a little empty on such a late night. Filip sat on the sofa, leaning back and closing his eyes as if he was asleep.

In fact, however, he did not fall asleep.

From last June to now, he and Starry have been divorced for more than half a year.

Both in Araria City, they met more often than he thought they would after the divorce.

This evening is old Mr. Baxter's birthday, Starry will appear, is also since oh among.

But she appeared only after the banquet had broken up, but he was taken by surprise.

Izabella's poor acting still bored him, but he stood beside Dillon and watched Starry help Izabella walk further and further away, but his heart felt a bit uncomfortable.

He couldn't say why, like now, late at night, he actually saw the hell to remember the previous Starry to pick him up.

He and Starry that five-year contract marriage, Starry's acting skills than he is much better, she seems to be really married to him, all aspects, even he was drunk, call back the Pearson residence, let the driver come to pick up, she can also come to pick him up personally without complaint.

Come on, but also learn from the gentle and considerate, but also take thermos bottles with sober soup over.

None of them knew it was an act, only he did.

But she was happy to do so, and he looked a little bored, wondering how anyone could act so well.

That night, he finally stopped just turning a blind eye, as usual, and he took the thermos bottle with the sober soup from her hand, and in that moment, he saw the lake colored eyes visibly light up for a moment.

He just opened the lid of the thermos in front of her, then pulled the trash can aside and poured out all the sober soup inside.

Dillon couldn't help but be dissatisfied on the sidelines, "It's not so outrageous, is it?"

Is it too much?

It's not like it's true, so what's the big deal.

But she acted like nothing was wrong and smiled at him, "This sobering soup is actually not bad."

Later, as always, she brought a thermos bottle with sober soup to pick him up, and occasionally went to the office to bring him lunch because of Frances.

One acts, but one's reaction when one is sick is not deceiving.

If it wasn't for that night, when she was unconscious with a high fever and Frances ordered him to take care of her while she kept calling out his name, he would have thought she was acting.

She was not acting, she was looking at him with affection in her eyes.

Starry loves him.

Although he did not know exactly when this unexplained love began, he was sure that she loved him.

He has many times false sleep when he perceived her measuring him, the sight is very gentle, he opened his eyes, the bottom of her eyes inside is not have time to withdraw the coveted.

However, everything came to an abrupt end after the divorce, and now when I think of those things, the sobering soup that was supposed to be for him no longer belongs to him.

Filip suddenly felt a little upset.

He did not understand why her love was withdrawn so quickly.

The house was cold and empty inside, and no one could give him an answer.

Of course, Filip doesn't feel he needs answers either.

Anyway, he doesn't love Starry either.

He was just, for a moment, curious.

Well, a moment of curiosity.
