Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 291

Alice hadn’t expected her strategy to pay off so quickly. Her decision to return to the Land mansion and force Chloe’s hand had been a stroke of genius.

“Ms. Alice, but the man in the photo isn’t the same as the one before, Mandy said Alice received the photo. The middle–aged man driving the car was not Chloe’s father.

After the call, Alice felt this wasn’t accidental; someone had orchestrated it to divert attention from the expired napkins. Everyone was busy damage–controlling; no one would focus on the Land family’s expired goods.

Ethan’s mind cleared.

“Alice, stop pretending. Those practices are common in foundations. You’re just using this to target Chloe.”
