Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 149

After the black car drove slowly into the villa, and the door slowly closed.

Jackie bit her lip and kicked the gate hard.

The iron gate made a sound, Jackie felt better. She took her phone out of her bag and called for a taxi.

After that, Jackie took one last of the villa, snorted, and turned to walk towards the intersection.

Turning around, Jackie saw a beautiful woman looking at herself.

It was a stranger.

Jackie looked away and walk towards the intersection.

Izabella watched Jackie's back until it was out of her sight.

At five o'clock she received a call from Edward, who told her that Starry was in a bad mood these days and hoped she could go accompany Starry.

Edward didn't say why Starry was in a bad mood or how he got her number. He just repeatedly stressed that Starry was in a bad mood.

Edward sounded serious. Izabella was really worried about Starry. So, she immediately came over.

But the traffic was heavy today. At two kilometers away from the villa, Izabella got off the taxi and took a shared bike.

She parked the bike outside one of the nearest doors to Starry's villa and walked all the way in. The moment she walked in, she saw Jackie speaking to Starry.

Izabella heard the question, "Did you marry Filip because he looks like Sebastian?"

Izabella couldn't help but think of last year, Starry called out the name "Sebastian" when she was having a fever.

Izabella suddenly realized something. For a moment, she didn't know whether to sympathize with Filip or think he deserved it.

Izabella heard the engine sound of a car. Turned around, she headed for the door of Starry's villa.

Starry didn't get off the car after parking it in the garage.

Jackie's words in the morning, and the question just now, dragged her back to the bleak days.

The sensor light in the garage darkened. Starry sank into the darkness. She could see no light.

The doorbell rang suddenly, which gave Starry a thrill. She looked up and watched the bright light coming over her eyes, her eyes were a little bit unfocused.

The doorbell stopped but soon rang again.

Starry was fully awake at this time. She buried her face in her hands and then unfastened her seat belt, got out of the car, and went straight out of the garage to open the door.

Seeing Izabella, Starry couldn't help but shudder. "Izabella?"

Izabella rushed in and hugged her. "Surprise!"

Starry took a step back to find her balance, then looked at Izabella and smiled, "What brings you here?"

"I miss you, of course! We haven't chatted for a long time!"

Starry had returned from Finas City a few days ago. Yet Izabella was busy because she was going to take a break. So, they didn't get the time to catch up. Even the lunch yesterday was a quick one.

Of course, that was not the only reason.

Izabella kept Edward's words in mind. After speaking, she let go of Starry's hand, took a step back, and looked at Starry through the light on the side. "Are you losing weight, girl?"

She looked at Starry seriously with her hand on her chin.

Edward was right, Starry was in a bad mood indeed.

People could always tell if one was happy from their eyes.

Hearing that, Starry touched her face, "Am I? I feel like I'm gaining weight."

Then she smiled and closed the door. "Let's get inside first"
