Chapter 834 Don't Smoke Inside Anymore

River reached out to close the door when suddenly a furry thing darted past his feet, causing him to

instinctively jump to the side. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

The next moment, he heard Averi's unreserved laughter.

Looking up, he saw Averi holding her arms and staring at him brazenly without any attempt to hide her

amusement.

"I thought you were not afraid of cats. What are you hiding from?" Averi asked in a deliberately

sarcastic tone.

River raised an eyebrow and looked at Averi with a mixture of amusement and resignation. This

woman intentionally let the cats out in an attempt to scare him.

Without saying much, River bent down and scooped up a cat with his long arm effortlessly. The usually

arrogant cat did not even struggle when River picked it up, perfectly demonstrating what it meant by

being "well-behaved."

Averi widened her eyes in disbelief as she watched this scene unfold before her eyes.

River walked towards Averi while carrying the cat and stopped one step away from her. He raised his

eyebrows slightly and said, "What? Do you want me to show you how I hold a cat?"

For some reason, Averi felt threatened by his words.

She quickly shook her head and reached for the cat back into her arms again. She now fully believed

that River was not afraid of cats. Rather, it was cats who were afraid of him.

But still... he really didn't seem like someone who loved cats. Cat lovers wouldn't carry them around like

that!

Even if no one else said it, Beata would definitely feel heartbroken seeing River carrying the cat in that

way. She would call it her little sweetheart and worry about the cat.

Averi stroked the cat and placed it on the ground, saying, "You've proven your point. You can leave

now."

River chuckled again, a bit mischievously. "What do you think I'm here for?"

Averi was taken aback but quickly remembered what River had told her: Beata misses her.

She felt a mix of emotions - amused and confused at the same time. After hesitating for a moment,

Averi tentatively asked, "So you're telling me that you're here to take me to your place?"

River raised an eyebrow but didn't confirm or deny anything.

Averi was even more confused now. "Actually, Beata can just arrange to meet with me alone without

going to your place."

"Why? Are you saying you don't want to see me?" River narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Averi didn't understand how he came up with that conclusion but she couldn't deny that she hadn't

sorted out her own feelings yet. She wasn't sure about his intentions either so rushing into things would

be embarrassing if she assumed too much.

River saw Averi purse her lips and knew exactly what she was thinking, even though she didn't say

anything.

Feeling a bit out of control, River bit inside his cheek and suppressed the urge to press her against the

wall and kiss her fiercely.

"You really know how to piss people off," River said.

Averi pouted innocently. She hadn't said anything, so how could she have pissed him off?

Pursing her lips again, Averi asked, "So you mean you want me to come over to your place?"

River couldn't help but laugh at her. He turned his gaze away from hers and pulled out a cigarette box

from his pocket. He shook one out and put it in his mouth.

Averi watched him intently as he lit up the cigarette. Inwardly, she sighed at how sexy he looked with a

cigarette between his teeth.

At the same time, Averi spoiled the moment by saying disapprovingly, "Don't smoke inside."
