Chapter 4477
“You hit River. You should apologize,” Donovan said.
“Brother, I did apologize to him—sincerely—and I explained to everyone that it was a misunderstanding and my fault. I even put ice on his face. I did everything I should’ve. But you don’t know how shameless he is. He just called me and asked me to buy him dinner! Said if I didn’t, he’d go complain to Grandpa, claiming I took advantage of him and needed to take responsibility. He actually said my palm kissed his face, like being slapped was some kind of romantic gesture. Only River could twist things like that. I honestly admire how filthy his mouth is—he can say anything.”
Donovan silently complained to himself: He’s just looking for an excuse to have dinner with you.
Hearing everything his sister said only confirmed Donovan’s suspicion—River was definitely into her.
He echoed her frustration. “Then yeah, he’s really shameless. Total scoundrel.”
“But don’t let him run to Grandpa. If he really says that stuff, Grandpa might actually tell you to be responsible for him. You know how worried he is about your marriage. You’re already twenty-nine, almost thirty, and still single. It’s stressing Grandpa out. His hair’s turning white.”
