Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 180

Starry was stunned for a rare moment as she inclined her head to look at Wyatt , and hesitated, "An old friend."

She didn't lie, but she didn't elaborate either.

Obviously, she didn't want to tell him.

Ryan makes a good point.

Wyatt did not continue to ask questions, he glanced ahead to the traffic light: "should not be a good old friend."

Just as he spoke, the red light in front of him turned green.

Wyatt took another look at Starry, said nothing more, started the car and looked towards Starry's villa.

The car was parked in front of the villa and it was already after 3pm.

The weather today is not as good as yesterday, it is a bit cloudy and looks like it wants to rain.

Starry unbuckled his seat belt and said thank you to Wyatt, "It's going to rain, so I won't invite you up for tea."

She smiled, opened the car door and got out.

Wyatt also got out of the car and went to the trunk to help her carry her suitcase out.

A dark cloud just overhead, Starry took the trolley of the suitcase: "I'm going back, take care on the way."

Wyatt raised an eyebrow and watched as she turned into the villa with her suitcase in tow.

The sliding door was slowly opening, and Starry waited a few seconds before lifting his leg to enter.

She wore a long white dress with purple flowers today, and the wind blew the hem of her skirt, the boundary where spring and summer meet.

He remembered that yesterday she stood in that hundred flowers, obviously those words blooming so brightly, but when she smiled, even the peonies are a bit out of color.

As the raindrops fell on his face, Wyatt withdrew his eyes and got back into the car.

Starry came out of the shower only to find that it was raining, and it wasn't light.

She made a cup of honey tea and stood there on the balcony watching the water on the fish pond downstairs being beaten by raindrops in a circle of ripples, people are a little lost in thought.

When the doorbell rang, Starry's hand holding the cup shook gently, almost dropping it.

Who will come to her when the rain is pouring down?

Good-looking eyebrows gently wrinkled, Starry looked downstairs, only to see a person standing at the front door, but the other side propped up a black, she looked past this angle, completely unable to see who it was.

Starry bit her lip and took another sip of honey water before turning around and walking back.

She put the half of the honey water still in her hand on the table and then went downstairs.

There was an umbrella basket right next to the entry door, so she grabbed one, held it open and walked out.

When he came out of the corner, Starry saw that the person coming was Filip.

A little surprised and puzzled, she walked over and opened the door, "What brings you here?"

"Did you drop a necklace?"

Hearing his words, Starry subconsciously touched his neck.

She was not in the right mood yesterday, and took a nap in the afternoon to slow down a little, but after dinner back at the hotel, her mood was still low, and she was a little distracted in the evening shower, so naturally she wouldn't remember that she was also wearing a necklace.

Filip said so, she also just remembered.

Fingertips fell on the chest and touched nothing.

She lowered her head, empty, the necklace was gone.

Filip has walked in, Starry is not good to drive people away, had to press the close button, "the rain is a little heavy, go up first."

Filip didn't want to be the "good guy with no name" either, so he nodded and followed Starry with his umbrella.

She seemed to have taken a shower, her hair was still a little wet, and being closer, he could smell the scent of that shampoo.

Starry collected his umbrella and put it aside in the umbrella basket, looked back at Filip, and only then did he see that his hair was wet from the rain, and the left side of his shirt was also a little wet.

Her eyes down to look, not surprisingly, the lowest of the black pants at nearly five centimeters of length is wet.

In the middle of the survey, Filip had already put away his umbrella.

Starry also closed his eyes, walked upstairs, went into the guest room to get a towel and handed it to Filip standing by the sofa: "Wipe it off."

The living room smells faintly of lemons. Filip watches Starry walk to the small bar and naturally sees the clear kettle with lemon slices on it.

He closed his eyes and wiped the part of his wet hair on his forehead with a towel.

The shirt was also wet and sticky, making it very uncomfortable. Filip frowned and unbuttoned the two buttons in front of the collar.

Starry carried the lemon and honey water to Filip when the original meticulous man did not know what loosened the collar, hair messy, more than usual a few unrestrained.

She still saw such Filip for the first time, knowing him for so many years, he is meticulous in front of and behind people, shirt collar buttons are always buttoned to the top one, hair is always the same one, cold and stern.

Suddenly see him this way, Starry's visual impact is quite big.

What's more, when she walked over, the person just happened to be standing beside him, looking down at him, her eyes easily looked in from inside the loose collar of that coat.

The usual tightly covered muscles, so clearly intruded into her field of vision.

Starry face rare some heat, she put the cup in her hand in front of him, without looking at the side to sit down: "Lemon honey water, not sour."

Filip took the jewelry box out of his pocket and put it in front of her: "Let's see if it's this one."

He was also alerted to a lady's necklace on the couch only when he got up this morning by the housekeeping staff.

Probably yesterday when he hugged Starry, the necklace just hooked on his jacket, he went back to his room and put his jacket on the sofa, and then the necklace fell on the sofa.

He wanted to return the necklace to Starry right then and there, but he knocked on her door and no one opened it, and the housekeeper reminded him that Starry had gone out.

He thought she had come back and thought he would come back before he gave her the necklace.

He came back from there early in the morning and came over at noon, Starry is not back yet.

It just so happened that Dillon had set up a bureau, so he went over there, sat for two hours, and he drove over here.

I just didn't expect it to rain all of a sudden.

Starry said thank you, took the jewelry box into his hand, opened it and knew the necklace was his.

The necklace was given to her by Izabella last year. The necklace was specially customized and she recognized it right away.

"It's mine."

At this time, a thunderstorm suddenly sounded outside.

Starry was taken aback for a moment and turned a little white.

Filip took a sip of lemon and honey water, slightly sweet and not sour.

Noticing Starry's startled movement, he raised his eyes, "Afraid of thunder?"

Starry was a little embarrassed: "No, it was just a sudden shock."

Filip took another sip of honey water, and he drank most of it in one gulp, leaving a little water inside the glass.

Starry saw and was a little surprised that Filip would actually like to drink this.

She was just lazy, did not want to make him tea, simply mixed a cup of lemon honey water with little acidity to him.

"Did you go to the doctor?"

Starry's face changed for a moment when he was surprised to hear Filip's words.
