Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 136

"Please wait for a second."

Wyatt looked at Starry apologetically and Starry also smiled at him, "Don't bother."

It was Wyatt's grandma. She asked him why it took one hour for him to buy some stuff in a nearby convenience store.

Wyatt looked at Starry and continued, "I come across a friend. Her leg injured and I accompanied her to the hospital."

"A girl?"

Wyatt smiled, "Right."

"She lived alone?"

"Yes. Her parents passed away when she was young."

"What a poor girl. Why don't you invite her to our home for dinner?"

"I'd better not. She didn't like to bother other people. I may leave now, grandma. I'll get back soon after I send her back to her home."

"I know. Don't hurry."

Then he hung up the phone and got back to Starry, "Sorry, it's my grandma."

"You don't have to walk me back home. My house is just on the street ahead, just about a few hundred meters away."

Wyatt smiled, "What a coincidence. My grandma's home is also on that street."

Starry was also surprised, "It's indeed a coincidence."

"I meet you on my way to the convenience store to buy some stuff for dinner."

Then he looked at the broken leg of Starry, "I didn't know it was you. But Bentley told me that you had a car accident and your leg was broken. Then I was sure it was you."

Then they walked out of the hospital and walked back home together.

As they got to the street they lived, Starry reminded Wyatt to buy the things his grandma wanted.

"Thank you for reminding me."

When he walked out of the convenient store, Starry was checking the fireworks displayed in the showcase.

Wyatt raised his eyebrows, "Do you want a firework show?"

Starry was finally taken back to the real world, "I haven't let off any fireworks for years. But this year I did find some kids setting off fireworks downstairs."

While saying, she picked a box of fireworks which shaped like fairy wands and asked, "How much are they?"

Wyatt had already got his wallet in hand. As the clerk said "ten", he had paid the bill instantly.

As Starry was still fumbling her wallet in her pocket, Wyatt had already paid the bill.

She turned her head to look at Wyatt, who was also looking at her, "As a New Year gift."

Starry didn't refuse, "Thank you, Mr. Matthews."

"Which one do you live in?"

Starry pointed at her house, "There."

Wyatt smiled and said, "My grandma just lived nearby."

"What a coincidence."

"Let's go, I'll send you back home first."

"Okay."

It was an old house and the street in front of it was a bit narrow. Starry walked in front of Wyatt and he, with her umbrella in hand, was following her.

Starry's house was quite small and surrounded by a lot of other old houses. It was indeed a quiet place.
