Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

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 | 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.”l like him.”

“Alice, you're young. We weren't good to you, so he took advantage, showering you with attention. But | 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? | 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! | 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.“l love this gift.” She looked at Jackson, her eyes lingering on his

lips, remembering their interrupted kiss. He leaned down.”l 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.“Lethold 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 ssuspicious 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. | 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. | 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. “Callif 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?”
