Chapter 469
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
In the face of Alexanderâs indifference, Brandon did not give up. More importantly, Alexanderâs house was warm and comfortable. Brandonâs body recovered from the shock, and he could finally move again, so he got up from the floor and went to sit on the sofa.
Alexander glared at him, but Brandon did not care as his butt was glued firmly onto the sofa. âCome on, donât give me that look. Youâve kicked me out of your car and electrocuted me, yet Iâm not complaining.
âAll I wanted was to have a look at your fiancee. Why are you even trying so hard to hide her? Is it because sheâs really ugly that youâre embarrassed to...â After noticing Alexanderâs glare, Brandon did not dare continue.
âOkay, okay. Iâm just trying to help. Your secret was already made public, so thereâs no point even trying to try hiding it. Besides, you didnât plan on hiding right? Since youâve already decided to get married, why donât you introduce her to me first? Itâs still better than my sister seeing her, right?â Brandon explained patiently, hoping to convince Alexander to give in.
âYou know very well what kind of person my sister is. Sheâs been by your side for many years and has helped keep other women at bay, right? If she finds out that youâre getting married, she would probably go crazy!â Brandon had expected Brittany to go crazy if she found out about this news.
Furthermore, this was not an arranged marriage; this was a marriage out of love. Brittany would probably even kill when she found out. The more Brandon thought about it, the scarier it became, which was why he wanted to see what kind of woman Alexander had fallen in love with.
If he could break them up, he would try, or it would be good to warn the couple about his sister if they were a matching couple.
âIâve only thought of Brittany as my sister, and you all know about it,â Alexander frowned in annoyance.
He had never once given her false hope or shown interest in her.
Brandon nodded like a chick, âOf course, I know! Even my mother and father do too. Iâm sure Brittany is aware, but sheâs just such a stubborn girl. She wouldâve given up years ago if she werenât. Iâm just worried that sheâll go crazy...â
He paused, looked at the rooms in the house, and mumbled, âArenât you worried that the fiancee youâre trying so hard to protect would be in danger?â
Alexanderâs face darkened as he heard what Brandon said. It reminded him of the incident in Westwood; just the thought of it scared him. Even though they had settled the incident correctly and Lily came out unscathed, Alexander still felt upset when he thought of how much worse the kidnapping could have gone.
This thought always made his palms sweat and sent shivers down his spine. He could not and would never allow something like that to happen again.
With this thought in mind, he looked at Brandon seriously, âYou need to make sure that Brittany doesnât do anything that would hurt my fiancee, or else, even if she were my biological sister, I would not let her get away!â
This was a warning to both Brandon and Brittany. In other words, Alexander had already given the Oakley family a headsâup that if Brittany ever did something out of line, he would not let her off the hook.
That was the first time Brandon had seen such a frigid expression on Alexanderâs face. He knew Alexander had a cold façade on the outside but was a warm person inside. Just like Alexander did not mind that Brandon was sitting on his sofa even though he was covered in mud.
However, this time Alexander was serious. Brandon could even feel Alexanderâs murderous mood, and it scared him. It seemed like he was serious about this woman. It was not a conspiracy to hide something, as Alexander was genuinely in love with Lily.
Brandon was curious to see what kind of person Lily was, as she could melt Alexanderâs stone, cold heart. Alexander had encountered countless women, be they gentle, beautiful, cute, or friendly; he had seen all of them, but never once did he falter.
How much of a beauty Lily must be to be able to enter Alexanderâs eyes and for him to treat her like his most prized possession.
