Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 22

Alice had been trying to reassure herself not to care about all this. Chloe could only resort to these tactics, even bringing Sixth Brother to school, and the likely outcome was that her grades would be canceled. But when she heard Jack ask about her results, she couldn’t help but feel upset.

As she was about to answer, someone called out to her,“Alice, the homeroom teacher wants you to come to her office.”

She bit her lip and said, “I need to go to the office. I’ll talk to you later.” After hanging up, Alice went straight to the homeroom teacher’s office.

Upon entering, she found Luke there; and the atmosphere was tense.

Luke spoke coldly, “Alice, I never thought you’d resort to cheating just to win. Do you understand what this means?”

Alice wasn’t surprised by his disbelief. Her gaze was steady.“I didn’t cheat.” She wouldn’t admit to something she hadn’t done.

“Alice, the facts are right in front of you, and you’re still lying? Based on your usual grades and your behavior at home, there’s no way your scores could improve this much, and you had plenty of motive to cheat! Admit your mistake, and we’ll ask the school to lessen your punishment.”

Alice scoffed, “Do you think that’s evidence of me cheating?”

Luke stood up in anger.“Alice, look at yourself!”

The teacher, seeing Luke about to lose his temper, quickly intervened, “Speak to her calmly.”

Luke, exasperated, said to the teacher, “Sorry, but Alice’s cheating is just her rebelling against the family. Just like I said, make her write a letter of reflection and apologize publicly, and don’t give her a punishment.”

The teacher sighed.“That’s fine, I hope Alice can turn over a new leaf.” After all, they were about to graduate from high school, and carrying a punishment wasn’t exactly a badge of honor.

Alice looked down at the floor, her already cold heart sinking further. They had decided her fate in just a few words, and no one believed her.

“Alice, you’ve brought shame to the Welch family! How could you be such a morally bankrupt sister? I’m embarrassed just to say it!”

“Do I even want to be your sister?”

Alice’s features were delicate, her eyes dark and cold. She didn’t care anymore.
