Chapter 758 She Hasn't Woken Up Yet
She knew when to stop and not push things too far.
Some things just couldn't be ignored. So Beata continued watching her phone, scrolling through Averi's Twitter feed. But as she dug deeper, she stumbled upon something big.
It turned out that the breakfast place River took her to yesterday morning was the same one Averi had tweeted about last week.
Beata remembered seeing it before but didn't pay much attention at the time.
Now, holding her phone tightly in hand, she glanced over at River and wondered if he had seen the tweet too.
When he caught her staring, Beata quickly looked away and pretended to focus on her phone again.
But once a seed of doubt was planted in her mind, it grew into an unbearable feeling that needed immediate answers.
Beata wasn't good at keeping secrets anyway and wanted to know what was going on right away.
Unable to control herself any longer, she handed River her phone and said, "River, do you need to explain something?"
River scanned through Averi's tweet on Beata's phone before asking, "What do you want me to explain?"
Beata was furious with his nonchalant attitude but still tried asking him directly, "Did you check Averi's Twitter? Is that why we went there for breakfast?"
Of course River wouldn't admit it.
Such a thing would be ridiculous for him even if it were true.
Seeing his silence only confirmed what Beata already suspected - he wasn't going to confess anytime soon.
But regardless of whether or not River admitted anything or not didn't matter anymore.
Beata had made up her mind about what happened based on what she saw online.
She said, "River, I never would have thought that you were so sneaky. You secretly checked Averi's Twitter and brought your cute little sister to breakfast. So tell me, do you just want to try the buns at that restaurant or do you want to run into Averi?"
River remained silent.
Although Beata was his beloved little sister, he really wanted to hit her in this moment.
Why couldn't she just keep her mouth shut?
Beata noticed the dangerous aura emanating from River but she wasn't afraid.
After all, it was River who had been caught red-handed.
She almost burst out laughing at how ridiculous the situation was.
With a sly grin on her face, Beata leaned in close to River and said teasingly, "River, what's wrong with you? What are you really trying to do? Can't you give your cute little sister a reasonable explanation?"
Surprisingly enough, River wasn't angry anymore.
He raised an eyebrow and looked at Beata calmly before asking, "So what answer are you looking for?"
Beata choked up for a moment and almost blurted out that she wanted them to date each other but when she met his gaze full of danger, she chickened out.
Pouting slightly, Beata replied, "Why are you asking me? We're talking about your business here. Don't change the subject."
River could see through her nervousness and remembered some of her previous actions which led him to guess what was going through her mind without having to ask any further questions.
He found it both amusing and helpless that his little sister would even consider such things about him.
He wondered how he appeared in Beata's eyes for her even think about such matters.
Suddenly curious as ever before, River wanted know whether or not Beata actually liked Averi or if there were ulterior motives behind it all.
It was ironic because he had always been wary of Averi using their relationship with each other for personal gain but now it seemed like someone else had their own agenda - his very younger sibling!
Was there anything more absurd than this situation right now?
River was beyond speechless.
Beata, still feeling guilty, didn't notice that River had seen through all of her little schemes and thoughts.
She pretended to take a deep breath and coughed lightly before saying, "River, if you have any ideas or thoughts, you can tell me. I'm your sister after all and I'll always be on your side."
Although Beata didn't dare to reveal her own thoughts to River, it didn't stop her from trying to peek into his mind.
If they could work together as a team, then she could be the perfect assistant for him.
With such a powerful ally by his side, how could he not need her help?
However, it turned out that River really didn't need her at all.
River said bluntly, "Just mind your own business. My affairs are none of your concern."
Beata was speechless.
Hmph! She refused to believe that she wouldn't be needed by her arrogant brother when he finally asked for help.
She wanted to see how he would win over Averi with such an unpleasant personality.
Beata raised her chin slightly and snorted softly.
They would just have to wait and see.
Sitting back on the couch again made Beata feel like she was floating on cloud nine.
She felt like in a past life she must have been an angel loved by everyone. Otherwise why would everything seem so easy this time around?
She was thrilled at the idea of having Averi become her sister-in-law because if Averi started dating River, then it meant that he really did have feelings for her - even though he stubbornly refused to admit it!
Of course there was also the possibility that Averi wasn't interested in him at all but regardless of what happened next.
Beata's heart swelled with joy just thinking about it.
Beaming with excitement while holding onto her phone tightly in both hands, Beata couldn't resist wondering what might be wrong with Averi? It was already 7 pm yet she still hadn't woken up!
