Chapter 273
Alice was startled to see Noah at the car window. What did he want? Jackson’s expression darkened, he found the Windhams increasingly irritating
Noah was furious.“Get out of the car!”
Alice wiped her lips, her initial nervousness replaced by calm. She rolled down the window.“What? Her tone was cold and distant.
Noah glared at Jackson.“Alice, why are you with him?”
Alice countered, “Why shouldn’t I be?”
“He’s not suitable. He’s mysterious, has a mundane job, and is after your status.” Noah had always disliked Jackson, especially since he’d been a school doctor and followed Alice to San Francisco. It was obvious he was clinging to her.
Alice scoffed.“I like him.”
“Alice, you’re young. We weren’t good to you, so he took advantage, showering you with attention. But I see him for who he is: a bad guy.”
“Enough. Whether he’s good or bad isn’t your concern.”
Noah turned to Jackson. “I warn you, don’t touch a hair on her head, or the Windhams will make
you pay.
“What makes the Windhams so special?” Jackson’s voice was frigid.“She almost got assaulted last night. That’s your idea of kindness? That ‘kindness‘ deserves years in prison. Who wants your
kindness?”
Noah was speechless, his hand gripping the car door. ‘Last night wast an accident.”
“So many accidents with the Windhams? I hope those accidents fall on your brothers. Alice’s with me; there will be no accidents.”
Jackson sped off. Noah chased after the car.“Alice, stop! I need to talk to you.” Alice ignored him.
Inside, Alice turned to Jackson. Your mouth is still as sharp as ever.”
“I don’t usually swear, but they provoked me.”
She smiled. Her phone rang; she knew who it was and didn’t answer.
Jackson asked, “Where to?”
“The TG PR firm. They found clues.”
Jackson considered it.“The gym is better. The PR firm is too public.” His identity would be exposed at TG.
Alice agreed. The investigation needed secrecy. If the backers knew, they’d hide.
Relieved, Jackson agreed.
Alice messaged the PR team; they’d meet at the gym.
They went
to the boxing area. Alice held up her red gloves.“I love this gift.” She looked at Jackson, her eyes lingering on his lips, remembering their interrupted kiss. He leaned down.“I want a gift, too.”
Chapter 273
What do you want…” She trailed off..
He wrapped his arms around her waist, kissing her tenderly. She wrapped her arms around his neck, responding happily. He held her tightly, his palms burning. She was breathless, her eyelashes trembling.
He pulled back, his voice husky. “They’re here.”
Alice remembered the PR team. She blushed, trying to
pull away, but he wouldn’t let go.
His chin rested on her shoulder.“Let me hold you a little longer.
“But they’re here. It’s not good.” She whispered.
“They arrived earlier. No rush.”
She blushed, listening to is strong heartbeat, remembering their kiss, her mind blank.
He finally released her. She fled, blushing. He chuckled softly.
Alice saw the PR team on treadmills. Rima approached.“We didn’t want to interrupt. We’re exercising too; it’s good for us.”
Alice apologized for keeping them waiting.
“It’s fine. The gym’s
convenient. We
work Out during work hours.”
This eased Alice’s embarrassment. Who would dare interrupt the heir apparent and his girlfriend? With Jackson involved, nothing was unsolvable.
Alice brought the team to the boxing area. Jackson sat nearby with water.“Go ahead.”
Rima reported, “Ms. Windham, we hacked into the Windham’s security system last night. Someone entered the mansion, but they knew the security layout. We only got a blurry back.
view.
“Knowing the layout means Chloe told them.”
“We think so. We’re checking nearby cameras, identified some suspicious vehicles, but it will take-
time.”
Alice knew it wouldn’t be easy. But this risked exposing Chloe’s father, confirming her initial thoughts. Pushing Chloe to the edge would expose her backers.
“Any clues are good. We’ll find out.”
Jackson stroked
stroked her head. “There are no permanent secrets. You did well.”
“Unfortunately, the butler is dead and took the blame. We haven’t dealt with Chloe.” She’d thought this would send Chloe to jail.
“I suspect this wasn’t his first time. Remember Chloe’s accomplice on the exam? He committed suicide. I suspect Chloe’s father did it.” If Chloe’s father was so casually killing people, he was definitely involved in her parents‘ deaths! It wasn’t
simple accident!
Jackson found the driver suspicious. Since there are clues, we’ll find out. I promise.” Maybe uncovering the truth would lessen Alice’s hatred.
Alice nodded. “The charity auction is tomorrow. Chloe will try something. We’ll get proof of her embezzlement.”
After sparring and dinner, Jackson drove her back to the Windhams‘ mansion.“Call me if you need anything. Don’t be reckless. Leave the fighting to me, Don’t get your hands dirty.”
I know” She liked him more and more.
She waved and entered the mansion. The hall was brightly lit; her brothers were there, with Chloe beside Ethan.
Alice raised an eyebrow.“Meeting?”
Ethan began, “Didn’t Second Brother say you broke up with that poor school doctor? Why are you with him? Are you that desperate for a man, Alice?”

Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness (Alice)
This story is incomplete!!! You get us into the story then you leave us with a cliff hanger. Plus there's so many errors. It is obvious that English is second ( or 3rd) language. Author has mixed up names on several characters. Mixed up he/she , him/her. Made story too long by repetitive sentences. Made it look like the reader wasnt able to retain parts of the story by repeating certain aspects. I know authors do that but this author did it too often. This story lets you see what an eye for an eye would mean to some cultures. Needs MAJOR proof reading. Pro: great family drama. The one emotion you feel the most in this story is anger & discuss. There are a few funny (actually hilarious) parts in there. You want the good guy to win even though he may been at fault for something. You want justice for Alice and you want to see her independent from her brothers totally. I feel the author is on the right track but just needs to clean it up....
Except Alice's and Jack's names, all other names are mixed. And why there is LUKE'S FATHER instead of EATHEN...
I want yo ask that wht Alice's surname is keep on changing from Wolsh to Windham to Lu???? And Andrew to Garett? And Jane's name to Chloe as well...
