Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 102

Filip automatically sat upright and didn't push Starry who was leaning away.

Her head got a place to lean against so she moved a little to change the position. She was sleeping so deep that she didn't move anymore.

Her eyes were closed this whole time.

Filip looked down at Starry who laid her head on his shoulder. Her cheeks blushed scarlet, probably due to the fever.

His eyebrow moved a little and then he looked at her IV bag.

There was more than half a bag of liquid left, which would take more than one hour.

Filip took out his phone and checked the time. And he saw Austin was sitting opposite him after raising his head.

Austin was staring at his boss Filip and Starry. But then he sat on his side and pretended to be asleep as he had met Filip's eyes.

It was a huge transfusion room so they sat quite far away from each other. Filip actually couldn't see Austin's expression and he barely recognized him.

But Austin's eyes were closed tightly with a guilty look on his face.

Austin's friend was looking at him and found it funny, "Why are you so nervous? There are like fifty feet between you two. He doesn't know whether you are sleeping or not."

Austin thought his words made sense so he slightly opened his eyes and took a glance at Filip and Starry.

Austin's friend was also staring at them and was curious, "Didn't you say that they broke up peacefully? It doesn't look peaceful to me. Your boss seems that he still has feelings for her."

Austin pressed his lips, "Honestly, I think so, too."

He had the idea in the first place that Filip still cared about Starry. And he tried to persuade him when they were getting a divorce but he was just a secretary and what he said didn't count, which, moreover, could even annoy Filip.

Austin took a sigh and felt sorry for himself.

It was hard to work for a boss like Filip.

Starry had a bad dream.

She struggled to wake up. After opening her eyes and getting hurt by the garish light, she realized that it was just a dream.

Starry was dumbfounded as her hand was pressed so she turned around to see who was doing this.

It took her by surprise when she saw the man's face, "Filip?"

"If you move again, your blood will do backward."

Starry looked down and found out that the needle on her hand had moved.

She just woke up so her mouth was dry. And she was about to take the half glass of water next to her.

Her wrist was grabbed by Filip when she was about to drink it, "Aren't you having a cold? The water got cold already."

Starry looked at him, "So?"

Her voice was hoarse which suggested that her throat was dry.

Filip didn't reply, he loosened her wrist and took the water away.

Starry frowned as her mouth was really dry but she was having IV so she couldn't go to fill her glass.

She looked around and no one could help her.

Then she decided to wait for the nurse and ask her to help when she came to change the IV bag.

Starry raised her hand to feel her forehead. She was confused considering she felt hotter after taking the IV.

She was uncomfortable due to the fever and there were cold sweats on her forehead as she was having a nightmare.

Then she took a tissue from her purse, wiped her forehead, and saw Filip walking back.

And there was a glass of water in his hand.

Starry asked, "Is this for me?"

"Am I the one who is having a fever?"

Starry took over the water and said thanks.

Her throat felt better after drinking it.
