Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute
Chapter 179: You and Filip have rekindled your love?

Starry looked at the third peeled shrimp that Filip had placed in her bowl, and she too was a bit dazed.

Filip peeled her shrimp, which really scared her a bit.

Starry's hand holding the chopsticks moved slightly, "I'll peel it myself."

She said, raising her hand to bring the small dish of shrimp that was at his heels to her own.

Filip looked at her, did not stop, pulled two wet tissues from the box of wet tissues aside and wiped his hands slowly and methodically.

Only after wiping his hands did he open the box of lunch that Dillon had just given him.

The lid opens and the aroma of scrambled egg rice is appealing.

Starry subconsciously glanced at his box of rice, the egg fried rice fragrance is indeed very fragrant, but oily, a look at the fried know not too good.

Filip this person, usually have no requirements for food, it is because he eats all the chef made, the product can not be poor.

But Starry knew that he was picky about what he ate.

The lid of the lunchbox just opened, Starry obviously saw his eyes inside a flash of disgust.

Filip took the spoon and hesitated to take a bite.

Seeing her watching, he raised his head for a moment, frowning slightly, "You want some?"

Starry was inexplicably amused as she shook her head a little, "I don't like fried rice with eggs."

"So what do you like to eat?"

He picked it up naturally, as if he was just chatting casually.

Starry took a sip of juice and looked at the plate of shrimp in front of him, "Nothing in particular that I like to eat." Her voice was light, as if she was speaking the truth, and as if she was speaking perfunctorily.

Filip gave her a look and didn't ask any further questions.

He put down the spoon in his hand and didn't eat a single bite of the egg fried rice that Dillon had ordered for him. Starry didn't have much of an appetite either, and after a few more bites of fried rice, she didn't eat any more.

And Filip peeled the three shrimp, she did not eat any of them.

She also didn't eat any of the unpeeled shrimp in the small plate.

When he left, Filip's dark eyes skimmed over the three shrimp, and he didn't say anything.

Starry doesn't like shrimp.

Starry came out of the elevator and saw Izabella at the door of her room. Thinking of the afternoon's events, her face changed slightly, but she quickly recovered. Izabella looked at her and her tone was a little more cautious: "Starry, are you okay than?"

Starry shook his head, "It's nothing, just suddenly a little uncomfortable."

She finished and smiled at Izabella.

Izabella glanced at Filip, who was following Starry, and pursed her lips for a moment, but did not continue to ask.

"So, are you still having a hard time?"

Starry opened the door to the room and pushed it in, "It's okay, aren't you guys going to play tonight?"

She entered the room and asked Izabella a question instead.

Starry suddenly disappeared in the afternoon, Izabella has not been too relieved until now, and later learned that Ryan is a psychiatrist, she is even less in the mood to play. Hearing Starry's words, Izabella naturally won't tell the truth for Starry to blame himself: "I got up a little early this morning and wanted to sleep early tonight."

Starry glanced at the two cups on the table, one of which she had used and the other Filip had used.

The hotel had a total of two cups.

After a moment's hesitation, she rinsed out her used cup and poured Izabella a glass of water, "Don't worry about me."

Izabella also knows that Starry has a sensitive mind, and being too careful herself will only make the other party more uncomfortable.

She took a sip of water and changed the subject, "Did Filip bring you back?"

Starry was pouring water, the cup in her hand was used by Filip, but she had just rinsed it.

Hearing Izabella's words, Starry raised his head for a moment and looked at Izabella: "Well, I just happened to run into him in the rest area."

Izabella's question brought her thoughts back to the afternoon, and Starry's face looked a little worse when she thought of her second time losing it in front of Filip.

She tries to keep enough distance from Filip, but it always seems to go against her.

Thinking about it, she put the kettle down and raised her hand to gently rub her temples.

Seeing that she didn't seem to reject the question, Izabella bit the glass in her hand and asked again tentatively, "He seems to have been on your side all afternoon." Starry's hand shook as she held the cup, water spilled out and landed on the back of her hand and cuff, she drew a tissue to wipe it.

She finished rubbing it in before looking up at Izabella: "He wasn't too sure about my state."

"Starry, why don't we go to the hospital?"

Izabella was a little shocked to hear that.

She knows that Filip has ulterior motives for Starry, but she also knows that Filip is not someone who takes advantage of others.

He stayed in Starry's room for the whole afternoon, and apparently Starry was in a bad state.

"A minor problem, it's getting better."

Starry took a sip of water and added, "I'll go to the hospital when I get back to Araria City."

She did have to make a trip to the hospital and ran out of medication.

Since she said so, Izabella can't ask any more questions.

She sat in Starry's room for a while, and when she was leaving, she gave Starry a hug: "Starry, be sure to tell me if you don't feel well, okay?"

When Izabella said this, she looked up straight into Starry's eyes, her eyes serious and heartfelt.

Starry's heart touched and she curled her lips, "Good."

Izabella got her reply, let go and turned around to go back to her room.

The ski trip wasn't very successful, but on the return trip, no one said anything about Starry's sudden disappearance yesterday.

Wyatt asked about the start of Under Moonlight, which Starry had signed to Hallowflame Entertainment, and there was occasional laughter in the carriage, which was not overwhelmingly awkward.

Back in downtown Araria City, Ryan got off directly in downtown, Wyatt took Izabella back to the Baxter residence, leaving Starry and him in the car.

Starry moved from the back seat to the passenger side, she was a little distracted the whole way.

The light ahead happened to be red, and the car slowed to a stop.

Wyatt looked at her with a sideways glance, "You and Filip are back in love?"

The question was a bit abrupt, and Starry was struck by a rare moment, then smiled, "What makes Wyatt think that?"

"Filip is a person who is not interested in profit, he doesn't look like someone who would participate in a company reunion."

Starry lost a bit of a laugh: "It's unlikely that he and I will ever get together."

"So who is it possible for you and? Or if I ask it another way, do you think you and I are possible?"

Starry looked at Wyatt at his side, did not speak.

Wyatt, however, gave a sudden laugh: "Scared you? Don't be, I see you've been wandering the whole way."

Starry sighed slightly in relief as she withdrew her eyes, glanced at the bracelet on her left hand, and smiled a little too, "I'm probably better off single."

"What a pity then! You have such a face, do not have a child to inherit, are a little sorry for God's preference for you."

Wyatt said, changing the subject again, "Who did you run into yesterday?"
