Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute

Chapter 150 Didn't She Sleep Last Night?

Izabella asked Starry for wine not because she wanted it. She wanted Starry to drink with her.

Izabella was not a good drinker, but for Starry, she would do whatever.

And nothing bad would happen even if they were drunk in Starry's villa.

After dinner, Izabella tried to help Starry untie the knots in her heart. She poured two glasses of wine

and dragged Starry to the sofa, intending to say something unhappy about herself first to make Starry

speak.

Yet unexpectedly, she got sad and kept drinking.

Izabella forgot her purpose. After two glasses of red wine, she got a little drunk. She hugged Starry and

began to cry. "Starry, it was the first time I liked someone. However, he went to an old woman for 100

thousand dollars."

Starry took a tissue and gently wipe her tears. "It's okay, you know what kind of person he was at

least."

"But I really like him!"

"You'll meet someone you like better."

It had been a thorn in Izabella's heart for a long time. Her father's company had a project with her

collage, so she stayed low-key.

She looked like a student from an ordinary family in Araria City. No one realized that her father was the

boss of Hallowflame Entertainment.

Izabella didn't want to be treated specially because of her family, so even when Dillon was invited to

visit their school, she pretended that she didn't know him.

100 thousand dollars was not a very large amount of money.

She didn't expect that the boy she liked would actually accompany an old woman in her sixties for 100

thousand dollars. When she saw him take the card from the woman's hand, she went numb.

After so many years, Izabella still had nightmares of it occasionally.

But she didn't talk about it with anyone. She didn't want to be laughed at. And she couldn't accept that

the boy she liked for the first time was such a terrible person.

Today for Starry, she opened her heart.

At first, she was just trying to get Starry to talk. However, she lost control of her emotions.

Now the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became. Starry's sweet comfort made

her feel a little warm. She cried while recalling the matter.

Starry listened patiently, occasionally responding with a sentence or two.

Izabella just talked for more than three hours and had three glasses of red wine, which made her

drunk. She murmured while holding Starry. "Starry, you're so pretty."

Starry was amused. "Thank you, Izabella, you are beautiful too."

She managed to send Izabella to the guest room upstairs. As soon as Izabella touched the bed, she

couldn't get up. "It's so comfortable!"

Starry helped her undress and put the blanket on her. Then, she went out to clean up the mess.

Izabella cried as she reminisced, tissues were everywhere on the coffee table and on the carpet.

Starry smiled, packed up the tissues, and closed the window. Before going back to her room, she

checked on Izabella again.

Izabella had fallen asleep with her head under the blanket, probably for the coldness.

Starry closed the door gently and went back to her room.

At three o'clock in the morning, Izabella woke up from thirst. She got up from bed in a daze and went Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

downstairs to drink water.

She was so thirsty that she drank a lot.

After having two cups of water, Izabella felt less sleepy.

Araria City was cold in April. Izabella ran downstairs in a hurry, without taking her coat. Now after

standing there for a few minutes, she felt frozen.

Izabella sniffled, turned, and ran upstairs.

In the darkness, the light coming out of the room was very eye-catching.

Izabella shuddered, realizing that it was Starry's room, she pursed her lips and walked over carefully.

The door was closed but unlocked. Izabella twisted the handle lightly, and the door opened.

The light was on in the quiet room, but there was no one on the bed.

Izabella frowned and subconsciously walked in.

There was no one in the cloakroom, no one in the bathroom. The windows on the balcony seemed to

be open. The curtains were blown up by the wind and rattled.

Izabella walked over, just as a strong wind blew through and the curtains were blown in, through the

gap she could clearly see Starry standing outside the balcony.

There was no moon, the sky was dark and heavy, Starry was standing on the balcony, her hair messy

in the wind, her coat making a sound.

Izabella felt so bad seeing this.

The wind was strong. Izabella felt cold.

Her lips moved slightly. She wanted to call Starry, but she stopped in time.

Starry probably didn't want her to know.

Izabella stood there for a moment. Starry was still standing on the balcony movement. Izabella covered

her eyes a little and then left.

After drinking, Izabella didn't sleep very well.

Before dawn, she got up.

Hearing the movement downstairs, Izabella froze and walked down. Starry was cooking.

Seeing her, Starry lifted her eyebrows. "You woke up early."

"Starry…"

Izabella called out to her but then paused.

Starry looked at her, "What's wrong? Are you sick?"

Izabella shook her head, not knowing where to start.

Didn't she sleep last night?

Today was still the holiday. Izabella went home after having dinner with Starry.

Starry wanted to drive Izabella back, but Izabella refused. She packed some cookies she had made in

the afternoon for Izabella.

In the evening, it suddenly began to rain and the temperature dropped a little.

Starry stood in front of the villa with an umbrella and watched Izabella get into the car until the car was

far away.

The wind carried the rain to the roses in the courtyard. In the dim light, the roses were shaking, as if

they were about to fold, and as if they were not.

It was cold on a rainy night. Starry walked toward the villa.

Having stood outside for a while, her hands and feet were getting cold.

Izabella went back. In the big villa, she was alone. It was so quiet, maybe too quiet.

She only slept for about four hours last night, so she had a bit of a headache all day today.

Rainy days were best to sleep. Starry took a shower and went to bed.

Turning off the lights, the whole room was pitch black. The wind outside was a little loud. All she had in

her mind was Jackie's sentence "You are a murderer."

She couldn't sleep. It was too noisy and too quiet.

Starry got out of bed and looked at the darkness, feeling very cold.
