Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 417

Alice held the portrait, looking at Chloe with a slight smile.

Chloe wasn't quite sure what Alice was getting at, so she answered vaguely, “It’s sort of similar, but not

completely. It’s not a photo; it’s hand-painted. Who can say it’s an exact match?”

Chloe had already prepared her excuse.

Anyway, who could promise that a painting was spot-on accurate?

Alice knew Chloe would cup with excuses. She casually tossed the painting back. Since it’s not similar

enough, keep working on it until it

is.”

She wasn’t about to let Chloe off the hook.

Chloe got hit, feeling a surge of anger. She turned to Finn, her eyes brimming with tears. “Finn, I'm really

uncomfortable sitting here. Can | please take a break?”

Finn paused for a moment before replying, “Sure, take a break. It’s not a big rush.”

Chloe smiled and stood up, planning to leave quietly.

But Ethan said coldly, “No.”

Noah also turned to Chloe, saying, “You've always been loyal to the Welch family, haven't you? We have treated

you well. You have everything Alice has.”

Finn was shocked, not expecting Noah to suggest aborting the child.

Noah's face was grim.“Finn, typically Ethan indulges you, but when it comes to avenging our parents’ murderer,

“Then do you still need to go to the hospital now?”

Chloe had already gauged the Welch family’s stance and was well aware they were all on the spage about

this, including Finn. Chloe didn’t dare push further and had to obey.

over.“Alice, since it’s just us, level with me. Did you really catch Darren?”

Alice looked up and saw Ethan had followed.

Her tone was cold, “I'll tell you after Chloe finishes the portrait.”

She didn’t want to discuss it now.

Ethan felt frustrated.“Don’t you trust us?”

Alice smirked, “What about you deserves my trust?”

Ethan was taken aback for a moment, then he spoke up, “Alice, honestly, it was all my fault earlier, and | realize

you've been treated unfairly.”

“Uh-huh.”

Alice responded indifferently.

He had always seen himself as the cornerstone of the Welch family, but now Alice was ascending in influence

and even dating the heir of the Wilson family.

The Welch family’s current situation meant they could only rely on Alice.

Ethan felt very unbalanced and wanted to suppress Alice.

Alice didn’t want to listen. She put down her fork and left the dining room.

Honestly, she didn’t need the Welch family’s fake apology.

After Alice walked out, Ethan's temper flared.“Just look at Alice’s attitude! | apologized, yet she still refuses to

If they treated Alice more harshly, she wouldn't be so overbearing.
