The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

It suddenly rained in the midnight. Starry woke up before dawn. She turned on the light, opened the window and found it raining outside.

The holiday was two days away. Based on the weather forecast, there should be no rain during the holiday, but it had started raining.

She had been away from the house for over two months, so the fridge was empty.

It was still dark at half past six in the morning when Starry grabbed her car key, going out for breakfast and grocery shopping.

The car involved in the accident had been repaired and sold, leaving only a flamboyant red sports car.

It was kind of stupid to drive a sports car in the rain, so after second thought, Starry thought it better to get a car on Uber.

It was dark and quiet. She could only the sound of wind and rain when she was standing outside her house holding an umbrella.

When the driver saw her, he was a little shocked and asked, “Hi, lady, are you some celebrity?”

“No.”

“What a shame! With that face, you should be star.’

Starry smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Perhaps it was because she was easy-going, the driver chattered along the way, during which Starry reacted sometimes.

Fifteen minutes later, the driver pulled the over the curb and turned around to Starry. With some hesitation, he said, “Do you mind giving me your number? And don’t get me wrong. I’m a married man, and my child goes to college. I just retired and I’m doing this to kill time.”NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

“I just think you’re pretty. My cousin is a local here in Araria City. He is thirty-three, an executive of a large company. He doesn’t have a girlfriend yet. His parents are both college professors. They are worried about him and asked me to see if there was any eligible girl out there for him.”

The driver was indeed not young. He talked too much but seemed to be decent man based on the whole trip.

He didn’t do it out of some evil purpose, but she couldn’t take the offer. “Sorry, I’m good.”

“Oh, I’m sorry. This is the first time I have ever done this. You are so pretty and nice, so you don’t need to pay me. You know, as a sorry for my offense.”

“Don’t worry about it.”

Starry opened her umbrella and got off the car.

The driver signed as he watched her back, feeling sorry for his cousin’s bad luck.

At that hour of the day, the mall was still closed. There was only a 24-hour McDonald with light on.

Starry folded her umbrella and walked in. The salesclerks were changing shifts, so no one served her until five minutes later.

The sky started brightening at half past seven. Starry sat at the store for a while longer before she left.

People came swarming off the bus at during the rush hours. Starry stood at the bus stop and missed two buses before she got on.

She couldn’t live without a car, so she decided to get one.

But it was still early when she got to a car dealership, which was still closed.

Starry folded the umbrella and stood outside. She took out her phone and texted Izabella, asking if she would have time for lunch with her together.

Izabella said yes and they made the date when the dealership was opened.

Seeing a beauty standing outside in the early morning, the salesman was obviously surprised. “Hi, are you here for job interview?”

Starry stepped aside and smiled mildly. “No, I’m here to get a car.”

The salesman soon invited her inside. “May I have your name?”

“Starry Bradley.”

“Miss Bradley, do you have any model in your mind? And what’s your budget?”

“I’d like to take a look at Mercedes S400.”

Before she came here, she had already checked on her phone in McDonald.

The salesman was more enthusiastic as he heard the model. “OK, please this way, Miss Bradley.”

Starry followed him and after checking out the car for two minutes, she said, “I’d like to test-drive it.”

“Sure, go ahead.”

Starry was a decisive buyer, even when it came to cars.

After test-driving for half an hour, she paid for it as soon as she returned to the dealership.

It was such a quick and generous purchase so the salesman had got quite a few complimentary gifts for her.

“Thank you.”

She was paying with her credit card when the sensory door of the dealership said “Welcome”

Starry heard a familiar voice. “Mom, I want to get a sports car.”

It was Lilly Pearson.

Florence Pearson saw her as Starry turned around her head. “Miss Bradley.”

The former said hi and then the daughter followed, “Hi, Miss Bradley.”

Starry nodded. “Mrs. and Miss Pearson.”

“How is your leg?”

Florence took a look at Starry’s left calf.

“It’s fine. Thanks for asking, Mrs. Pearson.”

With procedure done, the salesman handed the car key and receipt to Starry. “Miss Bradley, here’s your car key and receipt.”

Starry put the receipt into her purse and left with the car key in her hand. “Bye, Mrs. and Miss Pearson.”

Florence watched her from behind and said after hesitating for a while. “Miss Bradley.”

“Yes?”

“Have you met Filip lately?”

Florence had long noticed that there was something wrong with Filip

Starry shook her head. “I haven’t reached him since a long time ago.”

Florence signed and said, “Sorry for the rude question.”

“That’s OK. How’s Frances’s headache?”

It rained a lot recently, so it was easy for the headache to recur.

“Thanks for your concern. She’s doing great, but she kind of misses you, so if you have time, please drop by.”

Starry licked her lip and said yes, after which she said good-bye to Florence.

Since it was nearly Eleven’ o clock by then, Starry drove the car directly to Izabella’s company and waited for her to take off.

It had been so long since they met the last time, Izabella kept telling Starry how much she had missed her during lunch.”

Izabella had an interview in the afternoon, so Starry drove her back to company after the lunch.

After that Starry went to grocery store for some fruits and food before she returned home.

A black Maybach was parked outside her house. Starry slowly stopped the car, rolled down the window and met the eyes of the man inside the car.

“Filip?”

It was still raining. Starry felt cold when the wind blew the rain into the car.

“Frances wants to see you.”

Starry hung her head, thinking that she had just met Florence.

“I will come to visit her some other time.”

“All right.”

After that he drove off.

Starry watched the car driving further and further away through her windshield, frowning.

Why did he lie?
