Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness (Alice) novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72 

“I don’t want to repeat myself.” 

Noah, usually mild–mannered, was frighteningly serious. He gritted his teeth. Have you forgotten why we’re even here?” 

Luke finally calmed down. He’d come to the gala hoping to reconcile with Alice, but things had spiraled wildly out of control. 

Chloe, sensing the shift in the atmosphere, whispered to Luke, “Sixth Brother, let’s go. My foot 

hurts.” 

Luke, frustrated but defeated, reluctantly left with Chloe, without a single apology. 

Alice watched the whole absurd drama unfold, feeling nothing but weary indifference. Chloe’s same old tricks, Luke’s predictable reaction. it was all tiresome and irritating. 

Noah swallowed his disappointment, carefully addressing Alice.“I apologize for Luke. I… I never expected him to act like that.” The guilt gnawed at him, especially considering Luke’s brazen demand for Alice’s apology. 

Alice’s voice was flat.“I don’t accept his apology.” 

“Alice, I know you’re angry, and I am too. But you really can’t sign with TikTok. It’s a cutthroat business, and I don’t want you to get hurt.” He looked at her with pleading eyes. “I know you’ve always been obedient, and I’ve neglected you. But that changes now. Sign with Green Apple Live, and you’ll have all the resources you need.” 

“I’ve already signed with TikTok. Alice’s tone was casual. 

Noah’s face froze. He hadn’t expected her to move so quickly. He was incredulous.“Such a big decision, and you made it alone? Didn’t you consider talking to the family?” 

“My life, my decisions.” 

Alice turned and walked away, unwilling to engage further. Noah watched her go, a mixture of helplessness and sorrow washing over him. Alice had changed. She no longer relied on him, not longer revolved around him. 

The gala’s minor disruption was quickly forgotten. Alice, the twelve–hit–combo gaming streamer, was a popular attraction. The TikTok manager personally approached her with a contract. “Ms. Alice, let’s do this today.” 

Alice nodded.“Okay.” 

Noah watched silently, silently draining his wine glass, a suffocating weight in his chest. Alice, confident and accomplished on stage, was a revelation. He realized his little sister had grown up, no longer the dependent child he remembered. 

After the gala, Alice made several valuable connections. Leaving with Chloe, Chloe was practically ecstatic. That was so satisfying! Chloe getting what she deserved! I’ll be dreaming 

about it!” 

Alice smiled. After all this time, Chloe’s tactics haven’t changed.” But she wouldn’t be a victim this 

time. 

Daniel, the coach of the ‘Ball‘ e–sports team, approached them.“Ms. Alice, may I offer you a ride home?! 

Alice was about to refuse when Noah intervened.“No need. I’ll take my sister home.” 

Daniel raised

go with you?” raised an eyebrow. “Are you “She’s still my sister. Don’t even think about it, Coach.” Noah didn’t want Alice involved with the Ball team 

Alice stepped back, putting distance between herself and Noah.“I can get myself home. I don’t 

need either of you.” 

“Alice. I need to talk to you. 

Alice’s expression

about.” 

“Alice, I know you’re angry, and Luke’s behavior was unacceptable. I’ll make sure he pays for this. Are you really going to let this drive a wedge between you and the rest of the family?” 

Alice found the question laughable. Hadn’t the family always sided with Chloe? She responded coldly, “It makes no difference to me.” 

Waiting for a taxi, a familiar car pulled up. Alice knew who it was. 

The window rolled down, and Jack’s gaze met hers.“Get in.” 

Alice got into the passenger seat. 

passenger seat. As she closed the door, Noah approached. “Alice, I know you’re tired. Can we talk another time?” 

Alice pursed her lips.“Maybe.” 

Noah floored the gas pedal. 

Noah stood there, defeated, turning to Daniel. “Coach, Alice will never sign with your team. Give it up.” 

“You Windhams are so confident. Why are you so afraid of competition? I’ve never seen such blatant favoritism. It’s unbelievable.” 

Daniel, though, glanced in the direction Alice had gone. If he wasn’t mistaken, that was Noah driving. No wonder Alice was a twelve–hit–combo pro! But why was “he‘ here, personally picking up a girl? Something was definitely up.
