Chapter 465
“You don‘t know her,” Alexander said.
Brandon almost cursed at him. ‘What the h*ck! Someone I don‘t know?! It‘s akin to him not answering.‘
But then again, if she was someone Brandon did not know, then she was likely not someone who was
from a wealthy or famous family. He might not know all the eligible bachelors, but he knew all eligible
ladies of their circle.
Brandon was not bragging but could name all the ladies and mention their characteristics, who was
beautiful, who was bad–tempered, or who had outstanding talent.
Alexander said that Brandon did not know her. Did he mean that she was not one of these ladies?
What background did she have then? Is she a peasant? No way! The Russells were an influential and
wealthy family. How could they allow him to marry a peasant?
“Even if I don‘t know her, she must still have a name, right? Also, will your family allow you to marry a
peasant? Don‘t tell me you fell in love with Cinderella. Please wake up! The Cinderella story is a mere
fairytale for innocent girls. Don‘t tell me you believe in such love!” Alexander looked at Brandon coldly
as he was too noisy. Brandon stopped his words and was quiet for a moment. However, he still could
not help but continue pestering Alexander, “Let‘s put my wayward sister aside for now. It would help if
you thought of your family and family
business. Would they allow an ordinary girl to marry into the Russell family?”
“She‘s not ordinary.” Lily was never ordinary to him. She was special, unique, and the one and
only!‘Ordinary?! No, she never was!
Alexander continued before Brandon could continue,” Besides, I don‘t need a marriage to maintain the
business. As for my family, I‘m the one who was marrying her. I don‘t need others‘ consent.”
Brandon wanted to do a live broadcast. ‘Come, everyone! Look at this extinct species!‘
But he could not, considering his sister and Alexander‘s special status. He never imagined that
Alexander, the big CEO, was so naive when he was in love.
“That‘s not it. While what you said was true, our status and surroundings don‘t allow us to do as we
please. How can you not consider the other external factors? There will come a time that will make you
understand reality. Even if she is someone you like, in the face of pressure...” Alexander coldly cut
Brandon off before he could finish,” Does it have anything to do with you?”
What he said rendered Brandon speechless. Alexander made him sound like a gossiper. Indeed,
Brandon‘s actions earlier were no different from a gossiper. He shut his mouth and looked at the
passing scenery outside the car window.
Brandon frantically searched his mind but could not identify who was the possible candidate who was
about to become Ms. Russell.
Brandon looked back at Alexander, but Alexander was looking straight ahead. It was as though their
conversation earlier had not caused a ripple in him at all. Instead, he seemed like he was looking
forward to something.
‘Is he looking forward to something?‘ Brandon came to a realization. He recalled Alexander wanting to
hurry home after work and refusing his invitation for dinner or to go out drinking. He insisted on going
home for dinner and said he had not prepared dinner for Brandon. Could it be?
“Are you already living with the woman you want to marry?!”
Alexander did not deny it, but he did not admit it either. Brandon had affirmed his thought when he saw
Alexander‘s expression. “Damn it. I never noticed that you were someone like this all along, bro!”
Brandon felt that Alexander‘s sharp gaze had almost killed him. He shifted toward the back, saying, “I–
It was a slip of the tongue, really! It‘s just that I did not expect an old bachelor as you would someday
live with someone. I‘m very curious! Drive faster, Edward! I need to see what this woman looks like!
