Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute

Sitting on the bed for a while, Starry walked to the balcony in her pajamas, the rain was still falling. She shivered.

The coldness made her a little sober. She just stood like this.

She didn't move until she felt stiff because of the cold. She looked at the flowerpot next to her feet for a while and then turned back to the room.

Starry walked to the bed and turned on the light, the bright light was a little dazzling, she subconsciously raised her hand to block her eyes. Then she sat back on the bed.

Glancing at the phone, she picked it up and saw that it had only been an hour.

In the empty and quiet room, the thoughts hidden in the corner of her mind were soaring. She could not hold back. She collapsed and raised her hand to grab her hair. Her calmness was gone.

Starry buried her head in her knees, the suppressed pain was more than she could take. She bit her lip. Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, down her chest. She shuddered, raised her head, and looked at the air with blank eyes.

She hadn't felt like this for a long time. She felt like pushed down into a well. She tried to catch something and climb out but couldn't catch anything.

Starry was desperate to get rid of it all!

She looked at the coat on the side, suddenly got up and grabbed it, then ran out of the room, all the way down the garage.

Half a minute later, the black car slowly drove out of the villa in the dark. Filip, who was sitting in the Maybach on the side of the road was frightened. He frowned and followed up with Starry's car.

Rainy nights were often more solitary. Filip followed the car in front of him all the way to the cemetery.

Starry stepped out of the car in slippers, without an umbrella. Her pajamas under the coat were swayed by the wind, making her limbs look even more slender. Filip frowned, unfastened his seat belt, and got out of the car as well.

He walked to the back, took the umbrella in the back seat and opened it, then followed Starry.

Starry was stunned when the icy rain suddenly stopped. She subconsciously raised her head.

She was surprised to see Flip. Frowning a little, she asked, "Why are you here?"

Her voice was soft and hoarse as if even the wind was enough to break her.

Filip lowered his head, looking at Starry.

Under the dim light of the night, she looked paler. Her usually calm eyes were a little confused and suppressed.

He had never seen a Starry like this.

Filip looked at her and frowned slightly, "I saw you drive out of your house at your door."

Starry glanced at him, then at the cemetery. "I want to see my friend."

Filip frowned and looked at Starry's thin coat, "Aren't you cold?"

Starry also looked down at herself, "Not really."

As she spoke, she pursed her lips and tightened her coat.

However, her gray lips and pale face betrayed her.

Filip took off his coat and put it on her without saying anything.

His warmth instantly enveloped her.

Starry didn't reject. She looked up at Filip and thanked him.

Filip's coat was so big that it almost hung to the ground. Starry pulled on both sides of the coat and wrapped herself tightly, then headed inside the cemetery.

However, the cemetery was closed at night, and the person in charge was already off work. Starry looked at the closed iron gate and said a little disappointedly, "It's closed."

Filip felt Starry was very different this evening. She was usually calm, but not today. For now, she was lost.

Under the wind, Starry's hair brushed across Filip's face, with the scent of a woman's hair.

Filip's heart beat faster and he looked at her for a moment, "The door is closed, let's go back."

Starry looked at him stubbornly, "I want to go in, you go back"

She looked at him as if waiting for him to leave.

No one spoke again, the wind and rain passed through the gap between them.

After about two minutes, Filip pushed the umbrella toward Starry. "Follow me."

Starry pursed her lips and followed without saying a word.

The fence on the side was relatively low. It wasn't difficult to climb in.

Starry understood what Filip meant. She looked down and found there were bricks under her feet.

Filip handed her the umbrella, leaned over, and built a little stair with the bricks. Then he said to Starry, "Climb in, can you?"

Starry looked up, nodded, and handed the umbrella back in his hand.

She stood on the bricks, grasped the top railing, raised her legs, and stepped on the railing in the middle.

She climbed in very fast.

Filip threw the umbrella in his hand into the fence and then climbed in as well.

Starry had just stood up when she heard a deep bang next to her. Turning over, she saw Filip had also climbed in.

Filip looked back at her, and then picked up the umbrella on the ground, and opened it up on her head to block the wind and rain. "Let's go and see your friend." Starry looked at him, opened her mouth, but said nothing. She nodded.

The cemetery was quiet and dark. The wind was blowing. The trees were rustling. Large drops of rain fell from the trees and landed on the umbrella.

Filip walked behind Starry. The footsteps of the two seemed very abrupt in the quiet cemetery.

Starry couldn't be more familiar with the location of Sebastian's tombstone. In a moment, they arrived.

Under the night, the words engraved on the black tombstone were barely visible. Yet the photo on it was clear under the reflection of the moonlight. The teenager's face in the photo was clearly to be seen, It was the first time Filip had seen Sebastian's picture. He found Sebastian a pretty young boy, especially those eyes.

Sebastian and Edward didn't look very alike.

That was Filip's first thought when she saw Sebastian's photo.

The flowers in front of the tombstone had been cleared away. Now it was empty but clean. The rain was washing the picture on it.

Starry looked at the tombstone in silence.

Filip looked at Starry next to him.
