The Boss Went Crazy After Divorce

Starry was getting ready for bed, but as soon as she lay down, the doorbell rang.

She frowned, wrapped herself in a blanket, got up, and went downstairs.

There was a screen next to the door. She pressed it, and it showed the situation outside the door.

Under the dim night light, Filip was standing outside.

The man’s eyebrows were cold, and the expression on his face was not bad, but not good either.

Probably because she didn’t open the door, he frowned impatiently and pressed the doorbell again.

Starry turned off the screen and reached for the door.

The black door was open, and the night wind outside blew in. She felt a little cold and subconsciously tightened the blanket on her body.

“Filip?”

“You’re going to sleep?”

Filip looked at Starry. Her face was clean, without any makeup. He could see her light-colored pajamas in the gap in the blanket. It looked like she was ready to sleep.

“I was about to sleep when I heard the doorbell.”

Starry frowned, “Is there anything wrong?”

When she said this, her tone was normal. There was no anger, nor joy.

Filip suddenly remembered the day not long after they married, he forgot his phone in the study and he went back to pick it up. When she came down to open the door for him, she was also wearing pajamas, but with a smile on her face, with a light under her eyes. She sounded happy at that time.

She used to love him so much, but not anymore.

Filip felt a little uneasy. He controlled his thought. “I’ll handle Lucia for you.”

The wind at night was bitterly cold, it wasn’t the right place to talk at the door.

Starry took a step back. “Come in for a cup of tea.”

With that, she loosened the doorknob, tightened the blanket on her body, and walked upstairs.

Starry went back to her room, put on a white cardigan, and clipped her hair, leaving only some tufts of hair hanging beside her cheeks.

Filip watched her make tea without stopping her, which was rare.

Starry made the tea dexterously. To not embarrass the Pearson family, she had learned etiquette for a year, and tea art for half a year.

She had always been fast in learning things. The teachers who teach her said that others make tea just for tea, but when she made tea, she looked elegant, like noble ladies from old times.

Starry brought the tea to Filip. “What are you coming here for?”

Her tone was calm, but straight to the point.

Filip touched the teacup and tapped it with his index finger. “I will make her apologize to you about the plagiarism, and she will not bother you again.”

Starry raised an eyebrow. “Sounds like a nice way to deal with it.”

She tickled her lips but smiled very lightly. Her eyes fell on Filip’s body. Filip didn’t like the way she looked at him.

But he remembered what he was doing here so late. So, he didn’t argue, but instead asked, “How do you want to deal with it?”

“Deal with it the way I should.”

Lucia spread rumors and slandered her. What she did were all illegal. Apologizing wouldn’t work for Starry.

Filip was stunned. His indifferent eyebrows looked a little emotional. “You don’t have to fight the Scott family.”

The end was clear.

Starry’s wealth was far from the Scott family.

Filip wasn’t siding with Lucia, and he didn’t want Starry to lose.

Starry smiled a little, “I am only against things, not people. I’ve already reminded you of Lucia’s things, and I’ve reminded her too. But she insists on provoking me.”

At this point, she paused and looked at Filip’s eyebrows a little coldly. “Even the saint has a temper too, Filip.”

Filip had never seen Starry angry.

He felt awkward when she looked at him this way.

He didn’t like the look in her eyes.

“Since that’s the case, then I won’t meddle in this matter.”

Starry was a little surprised to hear him say this, but only for a moment.

The Scott family was powerful, even though Filip did not intervene, Lucia won’t lose much in the battle with Starry.

She almost didn’t understand.

She scoffed, “Then, shall I say thank you?”

Filip frowned, “I’m here to help you, not to help Lucia.”

“Oh, then thank you, Mr. Pearson.”

Starry was also a little angry, and she got up, “But I don’t need your help. It’s getting late. Good night, Mr. Pearson. You can help yourself out.”

It was the first time that Filip was unwelcomed somewhere. His face fell. “Sure.”

With that, he got up and went outside.

He didn’t take a sip of the tea on the table. Starry poured the cold tea and didn’t bother to clean it up. She turned directly to the master bedroom on the third floor to rest.

Filip came out of Starry’s villa with a solemn face, and the wind blew in, and the coolness on his eyebrows was even worse.

He got into the car, feeling more enraged.

He opened the car window, took out a cigarette, and ignited it.

The light in the living room on the second floor of the villa was already turned off. The third floor was lit, but soon it also went dark.

Starry did go to bed.

He shouldn’t have come.

Filip took a puff of his cigarette and started the car with an ugly face.

Early the next morning, Austin noticed that Filip’s face was ugly.

Thinking about last night’s statement, Austin felt that things should have something to do with Lucia.

This time, though, Austin guessed only half right.

Filip’s statement gave Lucia no chance to make excuses.

Henry suspended Lucia last night because of Filip’s statement, stopped all her cards, and asked her to apologize to Filip.

Lucia didn’t expect Filip to be so cruel. She felt like being slapped hard by Filip in front of the public on the internet.

She was now a joke. Henry asked her to apologize to Filip but she didn’t want to.

She was angry with Filip this time, no matter what, she and Filip had been friends for more than twenty years, yet Filip buried the friendship for Starry and pushed Lucia into the abyss.

After a night, Lucia’s anger turned into panic.

What would Filip think of her after all the things she had done were exposed?

Henry didn’t need to say anything more. After breakfast, Lucia drove to the Eternal Group for Filip.

The receptionists of the Eternal Group all knew Lucia. Although Filip had issued a statement on the Internet, the Pearson Family and the Scott family had a deep relationship and were business partners. So, no one dared to stop Lucia. They pretended to stop her, and then made a call to the person in charge.
