Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 153

Before closing the door, Filip hesitated. He looked at the wind and rain outside, frowned, and turned back.

Starry was weird tonight. Something must have been wrong.

The light on the second floor was still on, but the third floor was dark. Filip walked up and knocked on the door.

However, Starry did not respond.

He licked his thin lips and shouted again, "Starry?"

There was no response in the quiet corridor.

Filip reached out to the doorknob, twisted it slightly, and found the door was not locked. He frowned and walked in.

The light was so dim that he couldn't see anything.

Had Starry fallen asleep?

Filip subconsciously stepped back.

When he closed the door, he suddenly realized something. He hurriedly went in and turned on the light.

Starry wasn't in the room, she was standing on the balcony, and her hair was swaying in the wind.

Seeing that she was wearing only her pajamas, Filip hurried over and pulled her back.

"What are you doing?"

Thinking of how Starry stood in front of the railing just now, Filip felt inexplicably shocked.

Starry was kind of at a loss. She looked up at Filip, and said slowly, "I can't sleep."

"So, you come here to stand in the cold wind?"

Crazy!

Filip let go of his hand. Her cold hand gave him a thrill.

Starry pursed her lips without speaking. The wind on the second floor was strong, Filip felt cold after standing with her for just a few seconds.

He looked at Starry, who was only in thin pajamas, and pulled her into the room. He couldn't mind whether she would be angry now.

Starry didn't resist. She looked at Filip's side face. When they walked into the room, she suddenly asked, "Have you ever killed anyone?"

The question was sudden and frightening. Filip looked back at her, "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Starry didn't seem to hear him. She smiled, "I have."

She looked serious when she said so. She didn't seem to be joking.

Starry was never much of a joker.

Filip was shocked. "Sebastian?"

Starry's eyes turned red at once, "You know it too?"

She said it softly. But a drop of tears fell down her eyes immediately after she spoke.

She glanced desperately at Filip, covered her face with her hands, and crouched down to the ground, "I didn't mean it."

She didn't mean to smash his phone.

Filip had never seen a Starry like this tonight. She seemed to have taken off her mask, revealing the fragility that had been concealed by the mask.

It broke his heart seeing her like this.

He took the coat on the side and put it on her. "I believe you didn't."

He didn't investigate Sebastian's accident. Austin's investigation only showed that Sebastian died in an accident.

And that disaster was also an accident.

Society was governed by laws. Starry wouldn't be here if she was a murderer.
