The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

Chapter 17 No One Can Mention It



Sensing Filip’s anger, Austin was stunned. “Mr. Pearson?”

“Come back!”

Austin took a look at Starry, “Ms. Bradley, I’ll excuse myself.”

Starry nodded and walked inside.

For the whole time, she never even cast a glance at Filip.

As soon as Austin got into the car, he heard Filip’s cold voice, “Go.”

Hearing Filip’s words, the driver immediately started the car and drove away.

Austin looked up at Filip in the mirror. After hesitating for a while, he said, “It’s so cold outside. I wonder if Ms. Bradley went to pay tribute to someone.”

Austin’s voice was not loud, but the car was a small and confined space, so Filip heard him.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the smaller and smaller figure of Starry in the rearview mirror, with an unreadable expression on his face.

Why Starry dressed like this and whom she was mourning had nothing to do with him.

He withdrew his gaze and leaned back on the chair behind him, closing his eyes for a rest.

Austin didn’t dare to say anything more, though he also felt sorry for the divorce of Starry and Filip.

But he had been working for Filip for so many years, so he knew that Filip had always hated smarty-pants.

He had made a fool of himself just now. If it happened again, he wouldn’t have to appear in the office tomorrow.

It was almost seven o’clock when Izabella arrived. It was snowing and cold.

Dressed in black, Starry almost blended into the night.

As soon as Izabella got out of the car and saw Starry, she was frightened by Starry’s expression. “Little Starry, are you okay? You don’t look well.”

When Starry saw Izabella, she smiled, “Nothing. It’s just a bit chilly.”

Hearing her words, Izabella quickly opened the door, “Then hop in. Was the car dragged away by the towing company?”

Starry walked over, put away the umbrella and got in the car. “Yes.”

Izabella tilted her head to look at Starry. When she saw the snow on Starry’s shoulder, she turned around and handed Starry a new towel. “Why did you go to the countryside?”

Starry took the towel and wiped the snow on her shoulder. “I went to visit an old friend,” she said softly.

“Old friend?”

Izabella paused for a moment. She suddenly realized that she had known Starry for five years, but she didn’t remember Starry had mentioned any old friend to her. Even Edward was someone whom she just got to know recently.

Izabella suddenly felt that Starry was such a mystery.

“Right.”

Starry replied indifferently and looked out of the window. Obviously, she didn’t want to say anything more.

Izabella was driving, so she couldn’t ask more.

Twenty minutes later, the car returned to the downtown. Looking at the red light in front of them, Izabella asked, “Little Starry, have you had dinner?”

It was already half past seven.

“No. Have you?”

“Neither. How about having hot pot?”

Looking at Izabella, Starry smiled, “Okay.”

When Starry smiled, it was simply breathtaking, which totally mesmerized Izabella. “Little Starry, you are so beautiful.”

“You look pretty too.” Starry replied. She didn’t take Izabella’s praise very seriously.

Izabella sighed inwardly, feeling that Starry knew nothing about her own beauty.

It was late and Starry was not picky. They went to a restaurant that Izabella randomly picked.

It was the best time to have a Cheese hotpot on a snowy day. At this time, this restaurant was still full of people.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

But the two of them were lucky enough to get a seat.

As soon as Starry sat down, her phone rang.

As she was reading the menu in her hand, Izabella inadvertently glanced at the caller ID. When she saw the name “Edward” on the screen, she felt itchy. She was curious about the relationship between Starry and this popular star.

Of course, Izabella didn’t believe a single word about what the Internet said.

She had her own sense.

Over the years, Starry had put all her attention on Filip. As long as Filip was willing to give her an opportunity, the two of them would have a baby.

Alas.

Starry took a sip of her water and then answered Edward’s phone, “Why call me all of a sudden?”

Edward hesitated, “Starry, have you had dinner yet?”

Today was the anniversary of Sebastian’s death. If he hadn’t been in Stillhelm City, Edward would have come back. What’s more, he still had work tomorrow.

“I just arrived at a restaurant.”

Edward pressed his lips, “Did you go to see my brother today?”

“Yes.”

Starry didn’t say anything, and Edward didn’t know what to say.

Sebastian was a taboo for Starry. No one could mention it.

After a long silence, Edward took the initiative to hang up the phone.

Starry put down her phone. Izabella wanted to inquire about Edward, but when she saw Starry’s expression, she swallowed her words and handed the menu to Starry, “Little Starry, what do you want to eat?”

Starry came to her senses, took the menu and ordered two vegetable dishes. “That’s it.”

She had no appetite.

Izabella took a look at the menu and found that Starry just ordered a little, so she ordered another beef.

On the other side, Starry was in a low mood. Izabella smiled, trying to make her happy, “Little Starry, have you heard about the story between Nicholas Gibson and Sophie Newman?”

Sophie Newman was a friend of Lucia, and Nicholas Gibson was one of members in their circle. Starry had married Filip for five years. Although she was not familiar with all these people, she knew their names.

Hearing Izabella’s words, Starry stopped being emotional and smiled, “What’s wrong with them?”

“The premise was that Nicholas and a model had sex in a car, which was photographed. And the photos were sent to Sophie. Sophie didn’t hesitate to post them on Instagram.”

“You know what kind of person Nicholas is. He is sensitive about his reputation. After Sophie did that, he wanted to break up with her. But before they broke up, he made a list and asked Sophie to return the gifts he had given to her in the past two years.”

Nicholas was a member of the upper class, but Sophie, strictly speaking, was not a member of the circle. She just got into the circle by depending on Lucia.

“That’s an eye-opening list. In two years, Sophie actually asked Nicholas for gifts worth ten million dollars. Do you want to see the list?”

Izabella said excitedly, but when she looked up, she found that Starry seemed to be absent-minded.

Starry couldn’t hear Izabella’s voice anymore. She organized her thoughts, asking, “Have the two broken up with each other?”

“No, they haven’t. Sophie asks for compensation for her wasted youth.”

As Izabella spoke, she looked at Starry cautiously, “Little Starry, are you feeling unwell?”

Starry did feel a little uncomfortable. She didn’t know if it was because she had been standing outside for a long time that she had a headache.

But she didn’t want Izabella to worry about her. “Nothing. Maybe the wind has been blowing for a long time.”

She said in a plain tone, but Izabella didn’t think so. She raised her hand and touched Starry’s forehead. “Seems like you have a fever.”

Starry touched her forehead, “I don’t think so. Let’s have dinner first.”

While they were talking, a waiter came over with a dining car.
