Chapter 844 Scaring Oneself

Averi held the pen in her hand and suddenly forgot how to write a character. River, on the other hand, remained calm and quickly filled out his own form.

Averi looked at his writing in surprise. His characters were unexpectedly beautiful and had an air of elegance and freedom that drew Averi into them.

River finished writing the last character and looked up to see Averi's blank form. He didn't know whether to be happy that she was so captivated by his writing or to suspect that she didn't want to fill out the form at all.

Putting down his pen, River leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I forgot how to write a character," Averi said honestly. She hadn't tried to hide her mistake from him.

River raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "It's okay."

"What do you mean?" Averi asked curiously, not understanding what he meant by "it's okay".

Instead of explaining himself, River chuckled softly and said, "Can I take it as you being fascinated by me?"

Averi didn't know what to say.

Why was this person so unaware of the situation? The staff couldn't bear it and were snickering with their mouths closed.

Averi quickly picked up a pen and grabbed River's form, preparing to copy it down. Finally, Averi finished filling out the form, and her face cooled down from its previously fiery temperature.

Because they were the only couple getting married at that moment, the process went quickly, and soon the marriage certificates were handed over to them.

However, before they could even open them to take a look, a small hand reached out and snatched them away.

Beata looked at the photo of the two on the marriage certificates and exclaimed repeatedly, "My brother is so handsome! My sister-in-law is so beautiful! They're such a perfect match!"

Averi had always known she was good-looking but being praised by Beata still made her blush slightly. She felt embarrassed to look at River but he hooked his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace saying, "Beata's right. You're indeed very beautiful. And we're a perfect match."

Upon hearing River's words, Beata shifted her gaze over to them but couldn't seem to take her eyes off of them for even a second.

This was actually her first time observing these two intimately up close like this, and in Beata's heart, there seemed like there were ten thousand pets roaring all at once.

What was going on here?

This was what she called a real-life sweet story. Her writing was all made up, but this real-life version was just too sweet. Beata's eyes were sparkling.

River couldn't stand the way she was staring at him anymore. He lifted his hand and covered Beata's eyes, saying, "What are you looking at? She's my wife."

Beata was infuriated by River's domineering words and pulled his hand away while grumbling, "What's wrong with looking? You're so stingy. I'm still the matchmaker for you two. You didn't even thank me and kept lying to me that there was nothing between you two. With such a pitiful sister like me?"

Beata seemed genuinely agitated and kept talking non-stop, making River feel a headache.

Unable to bear it any longer, River gave Chace a look and said, "Take her home."

Upon hearing this, Beata immediately became defiant and stood in front of River, asking," What about you guys? Where are you going?"

"On our wedding night. Where do you think we're going?" replied River.

Beata blushed instantly while Averi couldn't resist pinching River on the waist.

"What is he saying to a child?" thought Chace silently.

Even Chace looked startled, trying to lower his presence as much as possible.

He never knew that River was this wild.

Beata felt like she was about to catch fire. It took her a while to replace her voice and say, "River, are you trying to scare me by talking dirty like this? I'm just a kid." River chuckled softly and said, "Aren't you supposed to be good at it?"

Beata was speechless.

She knew she shouldn't brag online. Now there was no true affection left in the world.

Suddenly, as she was thinking of something, Beata's face turned pale.

She stared at River for a long time before asking fearlessly when he was about to lose patience, "River, have you even read the boon part?"

There was no answer from River but instead came a muffled laugh from Chace.

Beata's heart sank instantly. What else did her brother not know?

Could the internet still leave her with some dignity?

Beata had already been depressed. She didn't need River to tell her to leave. She hung her head low and walked out dejectedly.

Chace quickly followed after her. After all, he had to protect Beata's safety.

Averi was still reeling from River's blunt words when she looked over at Beata, who seemed completely lost and distraught. "What's wrong with her?" Averi asked River. "I'll show you in the car," he replied.

Averi nodded. They needed to leave this place anyway. She couldn't bear to see the expressions on the staff members' faces anymore. It was like witnessing a mass gaffe.

As they exited the building, Averi couldn't help but scold River, "Can you please watch what you say in public?"

"What did I say? Isn't tonight our wedding night?" he teased.

Getting married was legally recognized. Averi blushed at his words and glared at him. "You can't say things like that in front of Beata."

River just chuckled and led Averi to their car. He pulled out his phone and opened a file before handing it over to her. "Don't underestimate kids these days," he said as she took it from him.

Averi raised an eyebrow as she read through what Beata had written on screen - her mouth hanging open in shock by the time she finished reading it all. "Beata wrote this?" she asked incredulously. "Pretty impressive, right?" River grinned mischievously.

Averi didn't know how to respond. There were no words for what they had just read together.

River was feeling proud, but nobody knew why. "I think I understand what you mean now," she said.

In reality, many people were too sensitive about certain things, which can actually hinder a child's growth. They will always replace other ways to learn what they wanted to know and ended up going astray. However, when it came to the content that Beata wrote, Averi commented, "It's not bad at all. It's quite artistic and not over the top."

River said, "She dares to write like that? If she writes something like that again, I'll beat her up."

But for Beata's level of writing, it could be seen as a literary work. River just read it without making any comments.

If it were a banned work of literature, he would have had to take care of her.

Averi chuckled softly and said, "As an older brother, you know how to handle things well."

River laughed softly and said, "Well then in the future, if anything comes up like this again, I'll leave it up to you as her sister-in-law. I can't exactly talk about these things with Beata." Averi replied, "Are you sure you're not trying to marry me off instead of replaceing someone for Beata?"

River couldn't help but laugh at Averi's words.

He said, "You must have misunderstood. Beata is not looking for a mother."

Averi shrugged and handed the phone back to River. "So, where are we going now?" she asked.

It wasn't towards her home or his, that much was clear.

River had mentioned something about celebrating their wedding night in a place where they wouldn't be disturbed. Averi couldn't help but feel a little curious about it.

"Somewhere with just the two of us," River said with a smirk.

Averi tilted her head slightly and looked at him. "Why do I get the feeling that coming from you, that's dangerous?"

She couldn't help but imagine some dangerous scenarios in her head - like being sweet-talked into going to an isolated location only to have her organs stolen by some crazed lunatic.

River didn't need to ask what she was thinking, because he could read it on her face. He reached over and rubbed her head gently. "You're scaring yourself for no reason," he said reassuringly.
