The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

Austin felt relieved when he saw Filip.

It was quite an important meeting later so Austin almost thought Filip wasn’t going to make it as he didn’t see Filip at nine in the morning.

And luckily, Filip looked alright except for some fatigue on his face.

It wasn’t about love.

Austin took a huge sigh of relief and was about to hand over the files needed in the meeting to him and then Filip asked, “What was the name of the man Starry went to visit in the cemetery last year?”

Austin was dumbfounded for two seconds while looking at Filip, “You mean the time she went to visit and her car broke down at Eckcola Road?”

As a senior assistant, Austin had a brilliant memory.

He soon realized that was the same day last year but he didn’t expect that Filip would suddenly mention this after a year.

Austin was frightened at the thought of that investigation report.

Did Filip find out that he looked like Sebastian?

But it wasn’t the case and Filip just replied, “Okay.”

Austin was waiting for him to ask more but he didn’t say anything later.

Austin hurriedly passed the files to him, “Mr. Pearson, this is for the meeting later.”

“Okay. Go ahead and prepare for it.”

Filip took over the files and walked into his office.

He had Austin investigate that man last year. And the name was…

He thought that they were divorced and it was meaningless and offensive to investigate a passed person so he didn’t see the result.

Sebastian.

That was right, his name was Sebastian.

He vaguely remembered Austin saying that was Edward’s brother.

Two years in a row.

Did she go to visit him on this day every year during their marriage?

But he didn’t pay much attention to Starry’s personal life over the past five years so he wouldn’t find out.

Never mind. Why would he get jealous of a passed person?

Edward’s face got a little burned by the wind in the cemetery.

Starry took a look at him, “You can go back to the car.”

Edward shook his head, “I’m not cold, Starry.”

She then didn’t say anything as he was Sebastian’s brother and he also wanted to be here with him.

Unfortunately, it started to rain at eleven o’clock.

They had to leave because they didn’t bring an umbrella.

“I’ll come to see you another time.”

Starry put down the flowers, wiped that photo on the tombstone for the last time, and then left with a smile.

Edward took a last glance at that photo. Sebastian was twenty years old when he died and his age didn’t change after twelve years later but Edward was twenty-four years old now.

And he didn’t have a brother anymore.

“Starry.”

Edward called her name. Starry looked back when she heard his voice, “Yes?”

She replied in a low voice as she was down at this point.

His lips curled, “I heard that Frances had set blind dates for Filip. You’ve been divorced for a year now, you…don’t you wanna have someone to take care of you?”

Starry took a look at him, “I don’t need.”

She could take good care of herself.

“But, would you give them a chance if they go after you?”

She didn’t answer and he couldn’t see her expression as she was walking in the front.

He knew what she was thinking but it had been twelve years.

Edward didn’t say anything more. He looked at the hands hanging by her side and was encouraged by his inner voice.

It was tranquil around which made his inner voice louder.

He finally couldn’t resist the urge and walked forward to hold her hand, “Starry, I’ve grown up.

Seeing that her hand was held by him on a rainy and windy day, she stopped walking and raised her head at Edward who was taller than her, “What did you just call me?”

His face changed, “Starry.”

Starry raised another hand and tried to get rid of his fingers one by one.

But he kept pressing his hand on hers.

He wouldn’t let go.

“But I don’t wanna call you Starry anymore.”

Starry then stopped the movement of her hand and looked at him, “Fine.”

Hearing her words, Edward got excited, “Then, could I go after you? I wanna take care of you. As a man and as your future husband, Starry.”

He didn’t get used to talking to her like this so he was a bit emotional but he made himself clear with a firm attitude in the end.

“You can call me Starry but then we only have working relationships. You can go after me but I have my right to turn you down.”

Then she looked behind him, “Edward, you have to think this through. You wanna be my brother or some friend who would never be my boyfriend?”

She knew he had feelings for her but he couldn’t be both.

He was young and hadn’t met more people so he just thought the feelings for her were love.

But he was just a brother to her and she never thought of him that way.

He wanted a chance, and that was fine. But he couldn’t do what a brother wasn’t allowed to do while being her brother.

“I don’t wanna be your little brother.”

Edward stared at her with a fresh yet determined look.

He had grown up.

Starry held her mouth, “Fine. Then pack your stuff and go back to your place.”

“Starry.”

“You wanna be both, Edward?”

She didn’t get angry and asked him with patience.

This question made him speechless. He finally let go of her hand as the rain was getting heavy and he was afraid that she would get sick. Edward then took off his coat and put it over her, “The rain is getting heavy. We should get in the car.”

Then he hugged her.

But it was just a quick moment before he loosened his hands around her.

At this moment, Edward was no longer a little boy who needed to be protected by her.

Starry looked at him with many thoughts and feelings, “Okay.”

Back in the villa, she thought he would beg for her to let him stay like a child.

But he didn’t. He consciously went upstairs to pack after a drink of water.

Then he dragged his suitcase downstairs in less than ten minutes, “I’ll stay at the apartment provided by the company. And I’m free the next few days. Can I take you out to dinner?”

“But I’m not available.”

“That’s okay. I’ll wait.”

He suddenly raised his hand to touch her hair but she dodged, “Edward!”

“I said, I’m not your little brother anymore, Starry.”

He called her name, firmly and confidently.

Edward then stopped talking as he didn’t want to irritate her, “Then I should go.”

Starry took a look at the floor-to-ceiling window near her and it was still raining outside.

She slightly held her mouth and she didn’t ask him to stay eventually, “Be careful on the road!”

“I will. Please be happy. My brother and I all want you to be happy.”

Edward felt relieved and refreshed as he finally said it out loud, “Bye.”
