Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 297

Alice easily pried Lewis's fingers from her wrist. His hand trembled, surprised by her strength. Noticing Chloe, he

felt embarrassed.

He pointed at Alice.“Alice, are you asking for it? If it weren't for you, my leg wouldn't be like this! You dare to

disrespect me?!”

Alice scoffed. “I've always wondered if you lost your brain along with your leg.” Lewis had been normal before

the accident.

Lewis's face turned red.“My leg is because of you! You dare mock me? I'll have Big brother teach you a lesson!”

Jack stood beside Alice.“You wonderful big brother avoided responsibility, didn’t answer the phone, and Alice

saved your life. You're a thankless ingrate.”

Lewis wouldn't listen; his miserable life began with the amputation. Otherwise, he would have pursued Chloe

earlier.

Alice, arm in arm with Jack, said, “Let’s go. Don’t waste ton this man.” “Alice, stop! Don’t leave!” Lewis was

furious; Alice showed him no respect. Before, because of guilt, she'd obeyed his every request. What happened

to her?

Alice

got in the car and saw Lewis fall from his wheelchair. Her eyes narrowed, but she didn’t get out. Before, she

would have worried, but in her past life, Lewis had helped push her into surgery when Nathan donated a kidney

to Chloe.

Jack, seeing Alice's silence, drove away.

Chloe watched, feeling embarrassed for Lewis. She wanted to leave. Ethan was displeased with her; Lewis was

her only hope. She helped Lewis up.

Lewis held Chloe's hand tightly.“Chloe, | promise you'll be fine. I'll protect you.” Chloe felt disgusted; Lewis, a

penniless cripple, couldn't help her.

Alice and Jack left Pear Garden. Her phone rang repeatedly-it was Lewis. Alice blocked him. He hadn't contacted

her much before.

number? Guilty?“”Alice,

A group message popped up. Lewis was attacking Alice.“You blocked my my leg is because of you! | didn’t break

your legs; I'm merciful, but you still disobey me!““Alice, | know you're seeing this! Say something!”

Alice scoffed.

Jack looked at her.“What’s wrong?”

“The people left at Pear Garden are throwing a tantrum in the group chat.” Alice was unfazed.

Jack frowned.“Are you going back to school or the apartment?”

“The apartment!” Alice didn’t want to return to the Land mansion; she didn’t want to deal with the “mad dog”.

The supplier issue was resolved, but Chloe’s crwas undeniable. If Ethan protected her, he would have to

agree to her conditions. She wouldn't go back tonight, giving Ethan tto think. Lewis and Chloe would likely

bother him.

They arrived at the apartment parking garage. Alice coughed.“Do you want to cup?”

was quiet; it was just the two of them. Alice felt his gaze and blushed. Jack looked at her, his gaze

deepening.“It’s late. You know what invitingup means?” The atmosphere shifted.

touched her ear.“l just said it casually.” She heard him chuckle. He leaned closer; her heart pounded. Alice sat

straight as he approached. Their breaths mingled. The car was dark, highlighting his features. Alice was

mesmerized.

Alice

Her heart pounded; would he hear it?

A click-her seatbelt unbuckled. Alice realized what he was doing and blushed; she thought he was going to kiss

her. Was she wrong?

Jack looked at her intently.

Alice, trying to control her facing heart, stammered, “You...”

He kissed her, his breath slightly ragged. Alice widened her eyes, surprised by the sudden attack; she reached

up and touched his shoulder.

Feeling her initiative, Jack deepened the kiss, holding her waist tightly. They pulled apart, breathless. Jack

brushed his lips against hers, saying with restraint, “I've been holding back.”

Alice's lashes fluttered; her face was flushed. He looked at her intently.“So, do you still wantto cup?”

“You're

my boyfriend. What's wrong with you coming up? | have faith in you.” Jack’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He touched

her lips, lightly rubbing them. His voice was husky.“But | don’t have faith in myself.”

Alice's gaze was flustered. He wasn’t like this before.

Jack released her.”We were friends before, but now you're my girlfriend. No one can remain calm around their

girlfriend.”

Alice understood.

Jack chuckled.“It’s late. Rest. Textwhen you get there.”

“Okay.” Alice, blushing, got out of the car and entered the elevator.

Once the doors closed, Alice touched her lips, replaying the kiss. She looked at her reflection; her mood was

much better.

Alice texted Jack a photo from her window. “I'm here.”

“Good night.”

Jack’s car was parked on the street. Seeing the lights on in her apartment, he called his secretary.“Schedule a

meeting with Mrs. Chen tomorrow.” He'd seen her at Pear Garden and needed to prepare. He glanced at the

apartment and drove away.

Alice, by the window, felt her mood as buoyant as the night sky. Several Lewis was demanding a division of the

family assets.

arrived.

Interesting. Alice texted Chloe.“The police will investigate tomorrow. Return the embezzled funds to the

foundation to avoid jail time!” She knew Chloe didn’t have the money. Immediately, Lewis raged, “It’s just a few

hundred thousand. I'll give Chloe a 990,000 dowry!”
