Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 40

Business would be directly done between wise men. Starry expressed her ideas after handing over the proof.

And Bentley had guessed it before he saw the proof so he wasn't surprised about her requirements.

"I understand what you mean. You can count on me, Ms. Bradley. I can do all that for you."

Starry said with a smile, "Well. Then, thank you in advance."

"Never mind. Wyatt is my friend and you are his friend, so I'm gonna do my best for this case."

"Thanks a lot, Mr. Wood."

Bentley put the iPad aside and said, "If you don't mind, how about dinner together?"

Starry took a sip of coffee and replied, "Sorry, I have a dinner appointment, maybe next time, my treat!"

"Well, in that case, then I should go."

Bentley nodded at Starry and then left.

Starry sat at the coffee shop for a long while and she didn't just make an excuse to turn him down as she did have an appointment with Izabella tonight.

But Izabella said that she was going to be late for work so Starry stayed at the coffee shop for another 20 minutes.

When she was about to pay the check, she was told that it had been paid by Bentley.

Then she raised her eyebrows, "Okay, thanks."

She put her phone into her pocket, walked out, and took the elevator to the parking lot to get her car.

It was still raining outside and there was already a traffic jam at 5:30 pm.

It was already dark when Starry arrived at the company Izabella worked in.

She couldn't park her car in front of the front door so she parked it across the street with the headlights flashing and Izabella saw it at the first glance.

Starry saw Izabella come and opened the car door, Izabella closed her umbrella, went in the car, and then took the towel Starry gave her, "Little Starry, I haven't seen you in days, you look prettier."

Starry laughed and then passed her a cup of warm milk and a small cake, "There's a traffic jam. Eat it if you are hungry."

Izabella had been in a show for a whole day and she was starving and cold walking over in the rain.

A cup of warm milk and a cake really helped a lot at this time.

Izabella was so moved, "What have I done to deserve a friend like you? I'm so lucky!"

"Maybe I'm the lucky one."

Izabella had helped Starry a lot when she was in the Pearson family for five years.

Starry then started the car.

There was a series of a collision on the road so it took them half an hour to get through.

Izabella found this restaurant when she was shooting a TV show and she had made a reservation so they didn't have to wait for a table.

Izabella had had the milk and the cake when Starry parked her car, so Izabella felt better now, "Starry, this restaurant is so good!"

"Okay!"

Starry answered, got off the car, and then walked forward with Izabella while holding an umbrella.

After saying the name of the reservation, the waiter ushered them in.
