Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 41

On the other end of the phone, Noah let out a long sigh.

“It’s not gonna be easy, man. Alice’s really hurt.”

He had tried to comfort Alice during this time, but nothing seemed to work. Even today, Alice left the dining room and hadn’t returned home or replied to any messages. In the past, he would have sent someone to find her, maybe even threatened to call the police. But now, Noah was terrified of pushing Alice further away and just waited for a reply. Mostly, he was wary of that mysterious school nurse. No wonder he couldn’t find Alice before.

Luke didn’t believe it.“Noah, Alice has always had a good relationship with us. Isn’t she closest to us brothers? I believe that as long as I clear up the misunderstandings and comfort her properly, it’ll be fine.”

Noah frowned.“Don’t show up around her before her exam.”

“I know my limits.” Luke said, hanging up. He knew exactly how to handle Alice. He just hadn’t wanted to bother. It was a piece of cake.

Luke pulled out his phone, opened his text thread with Alice, and typed:“Alice, meet me at the coffee shop across from the school after classes tomorrow. I need to talk to you.”

After logging out of her game, Alice showered and prepared for bed. She saw an unread message. She figured it was Noah. Instead, it was Luke. She read his message, then remembered the slap. She deleted Luke’s contact, feeling a sense of sweet revenge and slept soundly. The next day, since Jack wasn’t working, Alice took a cab to school alone. A crowd gathered. outside the school, surrounding a flashy sports car parked at the curb. They weren’t wearing he school’s uniform.

As she got out of the cab, someone shouted, ‘Alice’s here!‘ The group around the car scattered. A guy in a private school uniform, handsome but with a somewhat unsettling gaze, stepped out. Alice recognized him immediately: Garrett, from the rival private school, and the secret crush of affections of Chloe. She never expected him to show up.

Garrett smirked.“You’re Alice? You’re…pretty hot.”

Alice raised an eyebrow, her expression cool and composed.

Garrett grinned, pleased.“I’m Garrett Yates. I’d like to be friends with you.”

A chorus of squeals erupted from the surrounding girls.

“Damn, he is so direct; he’s so handsome!”
