Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 102

Alice looked up at Jack. Her earlier words had been impulsive. Jack’s usually calm demeanor flickered; a ripple in the still waters. His throat tightened slightly. “Kid, don’t go around telling men you’re ‘responsible‘ for them. That’s something “men” say.”

Alice realized her words had been a bit too forward, hinting at something more. She blushed, lowering her eyes. “Don’t misunderstand. I didn’t mean anything by that. You’re my friend, and I can’t let you get dragged into this because of me.”

“Yeah, I understand,” Jack replied, his gaze drifting towards the hospital.“So, what’s your plan?” “I want to talk to Garrett personally.”

“Let’s go.”

Alice stared, surprised, then jogged to catch up.“No, you shouldn’t go. I’ll go alone.‘ If Jack went, he’d be grilled. She wouldn’t let that happen.

“Alice, wait for me!”

Luke Wind caught up, having been surprised she’d taken a cab and chased her all the way. Spotting Jack, his face hardened.“You actually came? You’ve got some guts.” He’d thought the nurse would chicken out.

Alice frowned.“Brother, I told you this has nothing to do with him. Why are you doing this?” “Alice, I’m doing this for your own good…”

“Enough! What do you

mean, for my own good? Did you even ask me? I don’t think it’s good at all,” she said, thoroughly fed up with their assumptions.

She entered the elevator, her face set. Jack followed, a touch of sympathy in his eyes. “It’s not that difficult, don’t get so worked up.”

“Dr. Jack, that’s easy for you to say. All the pressure’s on Alice. With your status, can you really take on the Garrett?” Luke Wind scoffed, dismissive of Jack’s apparently confident attitude. In his eyes, Jack was nothing compared to the Garrett.

They left the room. Alice’s tension eased. Garrett was nothing like the rumors suggested;
