Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 36

It was still bitterly cold in Araria City. And it was during rush hour when Starry got out, cars were stuck for half hour in a traffic jam downtown with poor road conditions as it was raining.

It was 6:30 pm when she arrived at the Dapper Star.

It looked cold outside the car with the rain and the dark night.

Starry fixed the scarf on her neck and then got off the car with an umbrella.

Soon she stepped on a puddle which made a water splash and it left a stain on her leather boots.

Starry lowered her head at her boots, held tightly at the umbrella, and then went on walking towards the Dapper Star.

Wyatt did have good taste. The Dapper Star looked like a royal palace and people would feel like they were in medieval times.

Starry closed her umbrella and went upstairs to the box after several turns at the hall with the waiter.

"Ms. Bradley, Mr. Matthews is in there."

The waiter pointed at the umbrella holder as he said, "Ms. Bradley, you can put your umbrella in here."

Starry turned around and saw an exquisite umbrella holder at the side of the door.

She put her umbrella in and then walked into the box.

"I'm coming."

She smelled a great smell of coffee when she walked in.

Starry saw Wyatt having coffee through the screen.

She walked over and said, "Sorry, Mr. Matthews. I got stuck on the road."

"I understand."

Wyatt took a look at her. Starry dressed quite cozy on such a cold day.

She got a scarf, hat, and gloves. It was cold on a rainy day and her pale yet red face by coldness looked rather brittle.

"Sorry for letting you out in this weather."

He poured her a cup of coffee as he said, "This should warm you up."

"Thanks."

Starry took off her scarf and took a sip of the coffee as there was heat in the room.

Wyatt then passed her the food menu, "What you'd like to eat?"

She took the menu and ordered two specials.

Then Wyatt added two dishes and one soup. After the waiter took the menu out, there were just two of them.

The wind flowing through the window was quite dissimilar from the heat inside.

Starry looked outside and saw those decorations downstairs which would look better if it was snowing.

Seeing her like this, Wyatt smiled, "It would look better in the daytime and you'll like it."

Hearing his words, Starry turned around at him, "You did choose a nice place."

Her eyes moved as she said, "Mr. Matthews, I heard about what happened online. What do you need from me?"

Wyatt raised his eyebrows and looked at her flawless face, his index finger touching the coffee cup, "Did you do it?"

Starry stared at him, deadpan, "Do you think I did it?"
