The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

Edward stood by the window and looked at Starry, he wanted to say something, but he was afraid that would make things worse.

So, he could only stand there silently watching her.

Noontime was warm, although the wind was strong.

After standing under the sunshine for more than ten minutes, Starry felt hot. So, she turned around.

Seeing Edward leaning against the window, she smiled. “Why are you standing there?”This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Edward looked at her, wondering if she had felt better, or was it just an illusion?

But he didn’t dare to break the peace. He smiled. “The scenery is awesome.”

Starry looked back again. “Indeed.”

As she spoke, she turned around and walked back into the room with her cup, filled it in the bar, and carefully tested the temperature before drinking.

Starry raised her eyebrows when she saw Edward looking at her. “Are you worried about me?”

Edward felt seen through when Starry looked at him with her eyes that had been washed by tears. He smiled hastily, tried to change the subject, and also tried to test. “I made a mistake. I am sorry.”

Starry glanced at him lightly. “I forgive you.”

Starry pursed her lips slightly. She didn’t avoid Edward for his feelings, she just wanted him to figure it out.

Since Edward mentioned it, she didn’t mind talking about it.

Starry walked to the sofa holding the cup and sat down. “When my grandmother and I picked you up from your aunt’s house, you were only about thirteen years old. Twelve years have passed in the blink of an eye. You are twenty-five years old now.”

“You know very well how I treated you. I pay for your education. I support you to make your way in the entertainment industry. And that was not only because you are Sebastian’s younger brother. You are my younger brother too.”

Starry paused and glanced at Edward. “I don’t know how you fell in love with me, and there is nothing wrong with liking someone. I am not embarrassed about it. But to me, you are always my brother. Think of it. If you can’t understand, then I’ll be sorry for the past ten years that we have spent together.”

She tilted her head to look at Edward while speaking. “Strangers or siblings? You choose, Edward.”

Starry sounded peaceful, but every of her sentence was reminding him, that things won’t work out between the two of them.

Edward felt kind of stifled.

He had understood these days how complicated his feelings for Starry were.

She was the light when he was in despair and confusion. He needed her, pitied her, respected her, and loved her.

For Edward, Starry was not only a lifesaver but also his first love in his teenage years.

The life and death of their 12-year relationship were all up to him to decide.

Starry would never be his lover. There were only two options that she left for him.

And there was only one option that he left to him.

He was unwilling to give up, but he was more afraid that their 12-year relationship would turn into ashes.

Edward tried to smile with his red eyes. “I am sorry, Starry.”

Starry looked at him and sighed a little. “You will meet the girl for you in the future.”

“I hope.”

Edward smiled and agreed. But deep inside, he knew he would never meet anyone who attracted him more than Starry.

Starry took a sip of warm water. “What time is your flight in the afternoon, I’ll drive you to the airport.”

Edward wiped the corner of his eyes quickly. “I haven’t decided yet, I want to leave tomorrow.”

Starry glanced up at him. “That would be too late, Catherine said you have an interview tomorrow afternoon.”

Edward hesitated. Starry guessed what he was thinking. “Are you afraid that I will hurt myself?”

Hearing Starry speak so bluntly, Edward’s face changed. “Starry, my brother had left for twelve years.”

Almost thirteen.

“I know.”

“Jackie was speaking bullshit. Starry, don’t take it personally.”

Starry smiled. “I didn’t”

She was smiling, but her eyes looked sad.

For a moment, Edward couldn’t tell whether Starry was serious.

The doorbell rang.

Edward glanced at Starry again. “It must be the food. I’ll go get it.”

“Okay.”

Starry responded with a faint smile.

After lunch, Starry booked Edward a plane ticket to Abolin City.

Edward had had a lot of words to say, yet the moment he called out to “Starry”, Starry said to him, “If I want to hurt myself, you can’t do anything even if you are here”.

Then, Starry drove him to the airport.

Edward passed the security check under Starry’s sight, ready to board the plane.

On the way back there was a traffic jam. It took Starry nearly 20 minutes to drive 800 meters.

Back at the villa, the sky was already dark.

The person standing under the bright street lights was very obvious.

Starry saw Jackie standing in front of the gate before entering the yard.

Her hand holding the steering wheel suddenly tightened. Her veins of the pale knuckles were more obvious.

Starry didn’t want to pay attention to Jackie, she opened the gate ahead of time with the remote controller.

However, at the gate, Jackie stopped her car.

In the cold, windy night, the two looked at each other through the windshield.

“I have something to ask you.”

Starry didn’t speak, nor did she get out of the car.

After a while, Jackie couldn’t help but ask, “What are you guilty of, Starry?”

Jackie’s words hit Starry at once. She unbuckled her seat belt, opened the door, and got out of the car. “If you want to ask about Sebastian, I’m sorry there is nothing I can answer.”

Jackie was not as aggressive as she was in the morning. “Not about Sebastian.”

“I refuse to answer your question.”

Starry said, turning around and getting back into the car.

Jackie didn’t give up, she ran to her car door, and pressed on the window to stop it. “Did you marry Filip because he looks like Sebastian?”

Starry frowned subconsciously when she heard that. She shook her hand from the window. “Leave now, or I’ll call the police.”

Jackie turned down the corner of her lip and watched Starry drive into the villa.
