Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness (Alice) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 

With a swift shoulder throw, Alice sent Luke’s father sprawling onto the floor. The move was so fluid, Most people didn’t react until he landed, his face pale with pain. Chloe reacted first, rushing to his side.“Dad, are you alright?” 

Luke’s father coughed and waved her off, but he clearly wasn’t okay. Chloe looked up.“Alice, how could you hit someone?!” 

Alice clapped her hands. “Didn’t he start it?” 

She’d been diligently practicing boxing for this day! 

Chloe 

stammered.“But 

he’s your brother! You could seriously injure him!” 

The Maple Leaf representative couldn’t help but speak up.“Should Alice have just stood there and taken a beating?” 

The gossipy colleague also chimed in.“Your bias is showing! He started it! If this goes to the police, Alice acted in self–defense! 

Now I understand why she’s working instead of living off her inheritance. You treat her like a 

maid!” 

Chloe was speechless, focusing on winning Luke’s father’s favor. He was her only support. 

Alice looked at Luke’s father on the floor. I’m not the child who would take a beating without fighting back.” 

She wasn’t the girl who’d been economically controlled and held hostage by family ties! Luke’s father, feeling humiliated, gritted his teeth.“Alice, you’ll regret this!” 

“I already regret not waking up sooner!” 

As Alice was about to leave, Luke blocked her. I tried to stop Chloe. She tricked me!” 

Tricked you? You probably wanted her to!” 

To make her obedient, clip her wings! What kind of brother was he? 

Luke, unable to meet Alice’s gaze, explained anxiously, “I didn’t!” 

“But you did. Get out of my way!” 

Alice walked 

Luke without looking back. away 

stumbled, feeling unsteady. 

He turned to Chloe, his gaze menacing. 

Chloe noticed Luke’s expression, shrinking back. She crouched beside Luke’s father. “Dad, let’s take you to the hospital.” 

Luke’s father’s face was grim. He’d been utterly defeated by Alice! It was a humiliating defeat! 

He told his secretary, “Find a way to blacklist Maple Leaf. An A–City company; I’ll make sure they can’t survive in Cloud City!” 

“Dad, that’s too much!” 

“This is my business…” 

Luke’s father started coughing, his chest heaving, likely with broken ribs. He hadn’t expected 

Alice to be so skilled!

Chapter 174 

Chloe, head down, avoided Luke’s gaze, leaving with Luke’s father. 

Luke stood alone, wanting to cry but unable to. He’d wanted to reconcile with Alice! But he’d messed it up. 

He remembered Luke’s words to not trust Chloe. But he’d fallen for Chloe’s lies! It was his fauk! Second Brother’s project was lost, half his fortune gone; it was all his fault! 

Alice went to Maple Leaf with her colleagues. 

The representative comforted her.“Good riddance to such family. We can do well on our oWIL The gossipy colleague apologized.“Sorry, I shouldn’t have said that I’m sorry!” 

They’d thought Alice was a spoiled heiress who’d run away in a huff. They hadn’t realized how badly she’d been treated! 

“I’m used to it. They’re the ones who will pay, not me.” Thinking of the Windhams‘ expressions, Alice felt good. “Little Lemon, you did great today.” 

Garrett stood at the office entrance, smiling at her. 

Alice approached, seeing a man on the sofa. Jack was there? 

Garrett stepped aside, gesturing.“Come in. Let’s celebrate this clever woman’s outstanding performance!” 

Alice smiled. The Windham Corporation is disqualified. This project is ours. 

“Little Lemon, that shoulder throw was amazing.” 

Alice was surprised.“How did you know?” 

“I might not have been there, but I have my sources.” 

Alice noticed Jack’s gaze. I’ve been boxing.” 

Jack spoke. “Where?” 

“At a gym. I bought a bunch of classes!” 

Jack recalled her mentioning the gym, but he hadn’t expected this. 

Alice changed the subject. Should we have a lawyer deal with the Windham Corporation’s plagiarism?” 

“Absolutely. 

And 

congratulations 

on 

becoming 

our 

youngest 

partner!” 

Garrett handed Alice a document. Take a look. Any requests?” 

Alice glanced at the contract. “Partner?” 

“Yes. After your impressive performance, big companies will be trying to poach you. I need to secure you first!” 

Alice was surprised. 

After reviewing the contract, she signed it. It was a good deal. 

Garrett handed it to Jack. Let’s have a meeting.” 

Alice saw Jack holding her contract, standing up to join them. He was coming too? Jack sat beside Garrett, clearly a high–ranking member.

Alice sat with the tech team, opposite Jack. She hadn’t expected him to be at the meeting. 

The representative whispered, “Alice, why аге you staring at Mr. Wilson?” Alice quickly looked away, her face flushed.“I thinking. I spaced out.” Alice looked at the representative.“You call him Mr. Wilson?” “Yes. He’s a company advisor. His background is mysterious. He’s not a shareholder but is close to Mr. Yates.” 

Advisor? 

Alice looked at Jack, lounging in his chair, her signed contract in his hands. His long fingers. tapped rhythmically on the document. 

After the meeting, everyone left except the three of them. 

Alice hesitated. You’re on assignment here. Can you take time off from school?” 

“I resigned.” 

Jack held her contract, his fingers tracing her name. 

Why had he suddenly decided to move to Cloud City? Jack hadn’t been a school doctor for long in 

past life; he’d probably resigned to start Maple Leaf.

Alice realized Jack’s life trajectory hadn’t changed. She had. 

She thought about Jack’s gaming account. If she hadn’t met Jack in the infirmary, would he still use that account? Probably not. 

So, John Wilson likely used that account in her past life! That explained why he’d refused her requests to meet he didn’t want to reveal his identity! 

Alice gathered her things and left Maple Leaf. 

As she reached the street, a car stopped, and a man in a suit got out.“Ms. Alice, I’m Mr. Windham’s secretary. He wants to discuss what happened.” 

Discuss? She had no family. 

Alice smirked.“No.” 

Two more men got out of the car, blocking her path. 

“Ms. Alice, you must come with us.”
