Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute
Chapter 108 Who Sent Those Roses?

It was getting increasingly chilling as December was approaching.

Starry was afraid of coldness so she hated going out even more.

She told Catherine that Hamish didn't want to sign the contract and she could do anything as she pleased since that day she met him.

But Hamish behaved quite well lately and Catherine saw some talent in him so she let him shoot a TV show online as he didn't bother Starry anymore.

On the first day of December, Starry was waked up by the doorbell early in the morning.

It was getting colder and she didn't like turning the heat on so she refused to get up early as the bed was so warm.

Besides, she didn't have to work outside.

Starry got upset and frowned after being waked up.

She checked the time on the phone put aside and it was 7:45.

It was not that early.

She put a sweater and a coat on and then walked downstairs with a pair of fluffy slippers.

Due to the bad weather, it was overcast outside at almost eight in the morning.

She walked to the front door and there was no one there.

She frowned and thought it might be a prank by someone walking by.

She was speechless and was about to turn around and have breakfast inside. But then she saw a bunch of white roses on the ground when she looked down.

There was no card or information on it.

Starry closed the door and took the roses inside the villa.

Her anger from being woke up in chilling winter was gone because of these white roses.

She was actually a flower person.

A Maybach in the distance was started at this time.

She then trimmed the end of the roses and put them in a vase.

Starry could keep them alive for about two weeks as she had experience in it.

Dillon had been waiting for Filip to go after Starry since that day they talked.

It was almost two weeks from then but he still heard nothing from Filip.

Dillon couldn't resist the curiosity so he called him.

Hearing what Dillon was asking on the phone, Filip sneered, "What do you care?"

And then he hung up.

It was the third day in December.

Starry heard the doorbell again at 7:45 am but she didn't get mad this time. She got dressed slowly and then walked downstairs with an umbrella. The rain was still on from last night.

Unsurprisingly, there was nobody at the front door except a bunch of yellow roses.

The petals of roses got some rain on them, which looked fresher and more beautiful.

They looked nice.

She picked them up and looked around, only to replace out a Maybach parking more than ten meters away.

She then curled her lips and walked inside with the roses.

Izabella came to Starry's place to have fondue when she got off work at night.

Izabella smelled roses the second she went upstairs and saw that there were roses in several vases so she wondered, "Starry, Hamish's still after you?"

She heard about Starry firing him but he didn't accept.

Starry shook her head, "I don't think so."

Hamish wasn't the kind of person who would send flowers without his name on them.

Izabella then got more curious, "Then probably someone who has a crush on you."

Starry took a look at her with a smile, "Or someone who needs a favor from me." "My brother?"

Izabella soon denied, "But he wouldn't be this low-key."

It was hard to figure out who sent the flowers and the fondue smelled so great so she just stopped guessing, "It smells amazing. How long have you been making this?" Starry took a glance at her, "Two hours."

"No wonder it smells so great."

Starry passed a plate to Izabella, turned the fire to medium, and then sat down.

Izabella was eating while talking about what happened lately in show business.

"I heard that Frances set Filip up for blind dates. It's Donna. You've met her before."

Izabella was afraid that Starry didn't want to hear so she said slowly while checking the expression on her face.

Starry raised her head as Izabella suddenly stopped talking, "I saw them having dinner together two weeks ago."

"What? You saw them on their blind date?"

Izabella was a bit surprised.

Starry nodded with a smile, "Yep, but I didn't recognize her. She looks different."

Izabella hummed, "Dillon said she had plastic surgery. She might do this because she thought she was normal looking. But she did change a lot. I saw her a couple of days ago and she looks...alright." Starry thought for a while and compare what Donna looked like before and after in her mind, "That's true."

Starry met her several times three years ago and Donna helped her a few times.

Seeing that Starry didn't care about it so Izabella couldn't help but ask, "Starry, you think it might work between them?"

Starry shook her head, "I don't know."

"I've never seen him into someone before."

Izabella suddenly felt it was meaningless talking about Filip, "Forget about him. Let's talk about your new novel. Have you decided on your name yet? If you haven't, I got some true stories that might inspire you."

"Let's hear them."

Admittedly, the reason why those TV shows based on her novels could be so popular was not only that the topics were original but also she wrote them based on reality and true stories.

Some weird things happened to Izabella recently and they talked for over two hours.

It was still raining outside so Starry let Izabella stay tonight.

Izabella goy excited as she thought about that guy who would send roses early in the morning, "I'm gonna set an alarm at seven o'clock and see who is so lame."

Starry laughed, "It's cold. Can you get up?"

"I'll go back to bed later then."

Starry took a sip of hot tea, "I'm impressed."

It was chilling outside.

But Izabella didn't get to see that guy in the morning and she didn't hear the doorbell either even after she had lunch and was about to leave.

Starry wasn't surprised, "Roses don't come every day."

Izabella's lips curled, "Bad luck then."

She packed her stuff and left the villa with an umbrella.

Starry still didn't hear the doorbell the next day.

She thought it might be a mistake and she wouldn't have those roses from now on.

But she got it on Monday.

Starry got those roses randomly in a month since then.

It was snowing for the second time in Araria City in January. Starry frowned looking at the blue enchantress which got some snow on it.

She had got seven kinds of roses in the last month and they all looked expensive.

She wasn't curious about who sent her the roses then but now she was as it had been over a month.

She bought a security camera online and put it on the front door which could perfectly capture that guy now as the original one couldn't. Starry would soon replace out who sent her those roses.
