With Alex's warning, Aileen naturally nods like a good girl. After all, this matter is really no small matter. So of course she has to deal with it calmly.
"How do you want me to help you?" Aileen also feels confused now.
Alex says, "But tell me first, how did you get involved with Richard?"
"He wooed me!" Aileen says. She can lie about other things, but she will never lie about this matter.
"When did this happen?" Alex doesn’t want to bother about her personal life at all, but now this matter involves Miya, so he must break his habit and ask.
Aileen gives a muffled voice, and then says, "Just these two days." What she is telling is a fact, but she doesn’t know why she feels a guilty conscience.
"Get engaged in two days after wooing you?" Alex asks incredulously.
"Actually, I don't know how... I can’t explain to you with just a few words." Aileen also feels that she can’t explain everything clearly.
A thought comes into Alex's mind, that is, Richard either has a crush on Aileen for a long time, or he has planned this for a long time.
Anyway he thinks about it, only these two possibilities remain.
"Don't say I didn't warn you, you'd better keep distance from him." Alex says with a darkened face.
If this was him telling her in the past, Aileen would definitely not take his words to heart. but now...
"Alex, I also want to ask you for a favor." Aileen finally utters these words after some careful consideration.
"What is it?" Alex is obviously impatient.
Aileen really knows her brother too well, "Can we..."
"Don’t tell me you don't want to be engaged anymore, do you?" Alex sees what she is thinking at a glance. She doesn’t look like she wanted to be engaged now, it rather looks like she wants to escape the marriage.
After Aileen hears what Alex said, her eyes are about to shine, and she grabs his hand excitedly, "Alex, you will help me, right?"
"If you want to escape from the wedding, don't even think about it!" Alex looks at her fiercely, "I need you to get close to Richard and Augus."
After all, if he approaches them with all too obvious, it will not be conducive to his own business. It will be unconscious if Aileen does something by their side.
Aileen suddenly feels wronged. How can she have such an unreliable brother? But she knows he is only behaving like that all because of his wife.
He clearly cares more about his wife than his own sister!
"I..." Aileen wants to say something, but is interrupted by Alex.
