The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

Filip didn’t answer until a few seconds, “NO.”

Frances gave him an ultimatum, “I don’t care if you’ve moved on or not. I’ve promised old Mrs. Porter that you’ll have dinner with Ms. Porter. So, you must go.”

Then Frances hung up the phone.

Filip kept pressing his fingers into his temples and was annoyed.

He looked into the direction of the clinic and saw that there was more than half an IV bag that Starry was having and it still needed half an hour to be done.

Filip had planned to go back to the office but that call from Frances changed his mind.

He raised his hand to loosen the button and leaned against the car seat while staring at the clinic.

Izabella hastened to the hospital before Starry’s IV was done.

It was quite crowded in the transfusion room and it took Izabella some time to find her as she was sitting at the corner.

Izabella was staring at the sleeping Starry who was leaning against the wall with a sick and pale face.

She took a look at the IV bag and there was still one-third of it left, but she didn’t plan to wake Starry up and just took her coat out of the bag and gently put it on her.

Izabella was a bit thirsty as she ran all the way here and she thought it would take at least ten minutes for the IV bag to be done then she could have some water.

She took another look at Starry and then turn around to get herself some water.

Izabella felt much better after two full glasses of water and pulled another glass for Starry considering she was sick.

Izabella saw Filip was tucking Starry in the coat when she entered the transfusion room. Then she raised her eyebrows and walked over with a glass of water in her hand, “Filip, what are you doing here?”

Hearing Izabella’s voice, he put the coat over Starry nicely with his pinky shaking and then looked at Izabella, “Austin’s sick.”

He replied indifferently and then walked towards Austin.

Izabella watched him walking away and soon she saw Austin sitting there.

When did Filip become so nice that he would come to the hospital just to be with his sick secretary?

Then Izabella took a glance at Starry’s IV bag.

It was almost done so she pressed the button to call over the nurse to disconnect the tube.

Starry woke up when the nurse was disconnecting the tube and then she told Starry to press on the band-aid with a smile.

Starry then pressed on it and said thanks with her hoarse voice.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Are you feeling better?”

Hearing Izabella’s voice, Starry realized that Izabella was already here.

She looked up at Izabella, “Izabella, you came.”

Izabella put the water in front of her lips, “Have some water, it’ll make your throat feel better.”

Starry lowered her head, had some water and her dry throat felt better. She looked at Izabella, “I was sleeping. And I didn’t notice you are here.”

Izabella said with a smile, “I just arrived.”

Then she sat next to Starry, “Starry, look over there.”

She pointed at the direction where Austin was sitting and turned around but found that Filip was already gone.

Izabella frowned, “He was there just now.”

Starry guessed who Izabella was talking about, “Are you talking about Filip?”

Izabella nodded, “Yes. I was out having water and I saw him putting the coat I put it on you before closer over you when I came back.”

“Austin has a fever, too.”

Izabella hummed, “I don’t believe he’s that nice to keep his secretary company when he’s getting his IV.”

Starry thought so too but it had nothing to do with her, “Maybe he’s here for something else.”

Izabella looked at Starry and was about to say “He might be here for you”, but she didn’t.

No matter what reason, it was too late as they had been divorced for a long time.

They sat for a little while and then left. Starry was not feeling well so she couldn’t drive.

Izabella fastened her seatbelt and turned around to ask Starry, “Little Starry, what would you like for dinner?”

Starry had no appetite, “Anything you want is fine.”

Izabella thought for a while, “Since you are sick, how about soup?”

“Okay.”

After having soup, Izabella sent Starry back to her villa, took her temperature which was fine, watched her taking the medicine and then took a cab to leave.

Starry watched Izabella got in the cab at the balcony and then turned around to take a shower.

Her fever was down but she was still not feeling better.

Starry had been sick for almost two weeks and it was the end of November.

Starry finally went out but she was to see Hamish.

She was telling him the truth that day that she had a bad temper. Last time the flowers he sent her had irritated her but she got sick then so that was it.

But Hamish didn’t quit and he called her two days ago and told her that the gingko trees in North Garden were blossoming which was perfect for sketching.

It was vague but Starry was no child and she surely knew what he was up to.

She didn’t agree to go to North Garden but to The Dapper Star.

Starry saw Hamish when she arrived.

He was standing beneath a gingko tree and watching her drive to the parking lot.

Starry parked her car and walked over, “Let’s go.”

She was wearing all white which was absolutely gorgeous in the golden autumn.

“You look nice, Miss Bradley.”

Starry took a look at him, “Thanks.”

A man and a woman walked passing by her when she was about to walk in. It was Filip and someone she didn’t know.

Filip also saw her and then stared at Hamish coldly.

Starry only took a glance at them and then looked at Hamish who was also staring at them, “We should go.”

The woman standing by Filip noticed what he was looking at, she turned around and found that it was Starry, she then tucked her hair back to her ear and said, “Oh, Ms. Bradley.”

Donna glanced at Filip with an awkward smile, “Don’t you wanna come over and say hi, Mr. Pearson?”

Donna knew that Starry was his ex-wife but she didn’t expect to run into her.

Filip frowned, “No.”

Donna said facetiously, “Someone’s jealous!”

“Ms. Porter, I don’t have time to chat with you.”

Hearing his cold and harsh voice, Donna then stopped smiling, “Fine. Just joking. Let’s talk inside.”

She made a gesture like an usher but Filip didn’t look at her and just walked forward in strides.
