The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

In the garage. Martha helped Frances out of the car.

It was time for dinner. Frances and Martha went to the second floor and saw Filip sitting on the couch.

Frances was angry when she saw him. Thinking of Lucia’s visit, she was even madder at Filip. “I came back from Starry’s place.”

Hearing her words, Filip frowned slightly, obviously disapproving of Frances’ approach, but he didn’t say anything.

But Frances didn’t want to just let him go. “She apologized to me, and I asked her why she wanted a divorce.”

Frances glanced at Martha, who was standing next to her. “Martha, what did Starry say?”

Martha knew that Frances was trying to anger Filip, so she said. “Ms. Bradley said that she didn’t like Mr. Pearson.”

Frances snorted and walked back into the room.

Filip sat on the couch, thinking with his head lowered. He didn’t look good. He was frowning all this time.

Lunch was ready. Morris called out to Filip, “Mr. Pearson, it’s time for lunch.”

Frances, who had returned to the room, also came out. Filip went to the table and sat down.

Filip had a bad appetite. He didn’t eat much.

“I’m back to work, Grandma.”

He said, nodded, and really turned around and walked outside.

Seeing him walk toward the back of the stairs, Frances’s hand shook in anger.

Filip stood all night. Although he slept for five hours in the morning, he was still uncomfortable.

He took the car from the garage and went back to work, and when the red light came on, he stopped the car and looked at the red light in front of him, he suddenly remembered the words that Starry had said five years ago.

That day he had drunk a lot of wine and was kind of drunk. No one dared to go near him.

But Starry came out from nowhere, standing next to his car, and told him that she wanted to make a deal.

She was carrying a white backpack; her delicate face was without any makeup. She was wearing simple jeans and a white sweater. Her hair was a little messy under the wind, he looked at her shining eyes. Before he could say anything, she got in the car.

Before Austin could do anything, Starry closed the car door and handed Filip a drafted contract. “Mr. Pearson, my name is Starry Bradley, a recent graduate of Angelwood University. I am in urgent need of money now, and I know that you need a wife. Of course, Mr. Pearson’s urgent need may not be as urgent as mine. But I guess you don’t want to spend the next five years going to blind dates every month.”

The first time they met, she proposed to him an agreement to marry for five years.

That night he obviously had a terrible headache. If it were other people, he would have asked Austin to kick the person out of the car.

But that night, he did not drive Starry away but instead asked, “Why do you think I will choose you?”

She replied so firmly and confidently, “I am your best choice, Mr. Pearson. I don’t love you, and I can guarantee that I won’t fall in love with you for the next five years. I guess you want a deal, not a relationship.”

Starry was only 22 years old, young, and naïve. She didn’t know where she got the courage.

Yet, he believed her.

Won’t she fall in love with him?

Filip felt that Starry was good at acting.

In the past five years, everything she did was full of love.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

So, it was funny that she lied to Frances saying that she didn’t love him.

The green light was on, and the car behind was honking impatiently.

Filip thought of Frances’s words, his face fell.

He started the car.

Starry ate lunch, looked at the tea set on the table that she had not yet had time to clean up, raised an eyebrow, and finally decided to call Flip.

It was the first time she had contacted Filip since the divorce. She didn’t have his number on her phone but she remembered it.

The phone rang several times before Starry heard Filip’s voice. “Who is it?”

After the divorce, Starry changed her number. Filip naturally didn’t know.

“It’s Starry.”

“My grandma went to see you.”

It was clear that he already knew about it for he didn’t ask but stated.

This made it easier for Starry. “The old lady came over at ten o’clock, and just asked me a few questions, but nothing much.”

She said lightly, “Yet I said something wrong by accident.”

“What did you say?”

“I said I was going to return the villa, the apartment, and the money to you. I regretted saying that after thinking about it. It was a deal, and that’s what I get for my labor. So, I’m afraid I can’t return those back to you.”

Filip had always felt that Starry’s divorce was just a trick. She was greedy, she wanted both money and love. She must be waiting for him to return to her.

Now that she got the opportunity, so she must have called to make peace, so he didn’t interrupt Starry’s words.

However, after hearing what she said, Filip realized that Starry had not come to make peace, she had come to draw a line with him.

Frances must have said something. That was why Starry called and reminded him again that the five-year marriage was nothing but a deal. He got five years of a peaceful marriage, she got the money, Now the cooperation was over.

Realizing this, Filip felt a wave of burning anger in his heart.

He restrained himself vigorously and sneered, “So?”

“Nothing, just to inform you of this. I don’t want the old lady to misunderstand.”

Wouldn’t Frances misunderstand if she didn’t return the houses and the money?

Filip laughed angrily, “Starry, do you think that I have no one to marry except you?”

Sensing his anger, Starry pursed her lips, “I’m sorry, Mr. Pearson.”

“Get lost!”

“I’m sorry.”

Starry repeated and then hung up the phone.

After that, she looked at her phone and felt maybe she shouldn’t have made the call.

Filip seemed to have misunderstood her.
