Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness (Alice) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117 

“You said Alice wrote the code?” Ethan was stunned. ‘I… I didn’t know.” And Alice was so young? 

Luke said, “Brother, I mentioned it before, but you forgot. Alice silently contributed a lot, but we ignored her.” He realized how wrong he’d been. 

Ethan stammered, “I thought you wrote it; she just helped.” He’d assumed Luke was making excuses for Alice. He hadn’t expected it to be true. 

His secretary urged, “Boss, the tech department is helpless. What do we do? If this leaks, the company is in big trouble!” 

“What are the tech guys doing? They can’t even match a girl? Ethan’s pride wouldn’t let him back. down. He glared at Alice.“What are you doing? You’re retaliating because I forgot you wrote the code?” It was just a forgotten detail; was it so important? Alice was family; contributing was expected. 

“Yes,” Alice readily admitted, her gaze cold.“Brother, you have bigger problems now. Fix this before all your secrets leak.” 

“Alice, how dare you? You ate, drank, and lived off Lu Corp.’s money. You’re trying to sabotage the company?! Don’t you have a conscience?!” 

Alice stood at the doorway, cold. “First, our parents left each of us a trust fund. My education expenses came from there.” 

“Fine! But your living expenses for all these years–your food, clothing, and shelter–came from Lu Corp! We gave you expensive gifts on birthdays!” 

“You forgot? After our parents died, I stopped celebrating birthdays. You bought expensive gifts for Chloe, not me.” 

‘Nonsense! I remember buying you an antique phoenix crown.” 

Alice smirked.“Chloe took it.”

“Impossible! It was for you! Why would Chloe take it?” Ethan looked at Luke accusingly. 

Luke stammered, “Brother, it was a misunderstanding. Alice and Chloe argued; Alice gave Chloe in anger.

“Even if she apologized, she shouldn’t give away my gifts! Luke, what were you thinking?!” Ethan felt humiliated and upset. 

Alice produced an envelope of cash. This covers my food expenses over the years: ten thousand. We’re even. I have nothing more to do with the Winds!” 

Luke’s hands trembled as the money landed in his lap. Ethan’s face turned livid. ‘Alice, don’t think you’re safe!” 

Alice lifted her chin, her eyes icy.“Mr. Windham, I advise you to leave. Otherwise, I’ll release the source code. Your competitors will be thrilled.” 

Ethan trembled with rage. “You… you…good! From today, I disown you! I will never forgive you!” “Brother! Don’t say that!” Luke held Ethan back.“She’s our sister! We promised Mom and Dad we’d take care of her.” 

“If not for Alice, Mom and Dad wouldn’t have died in the accident!” Ethan’s eyes were red, his voice filled with rage. “If I’d known Alice would be like this, Chloe’s father should have saved our 

parents first!” 

Alice seemed to remember the accident. She stumbled, leaning against the door, a sharp pain in her chest. She couldn’t remember what happened that day. 

Ethan ripped off his jacket.“You think we favor Chloe, but we took her in for you, to repay a debt! You killed Mom and Dad, and Chloe’s father! If you want to leave, fine!” 

He left. 

“Brother, come back! Luke, anxious and angry, turned to Alice. Brother’s just angry. Don’t 

worry. 

Alice was unsteady. Jack supported her, his 

supported her, his gaze concerned. Are you alright?” She shook her head, her voice hoarse.“I can’t remember the accident. Did I really kill Mom and Pad?” 

“No, it’s not your fault. It was an accident. The other driver ran a red light. They’re the killers!” When Jack heard “killers,” a sharp pain pierced him. 

Alice was unconvinced.“Brother didn’t mean it that way.” 

“He was angry. You know his temper! Luke looked worried. “It wasn’t

Luke hesitated. He had. He said, “That’s in the past. You were young. We weren’t mature. If we hurt you, I apologize.”
