Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 292

Alice felt a surge of satisfaction seeing Ethan’s expression. Her guess had been right. He hadn’t answered the phone to avoid responsibility for the amputation. Even though Lawrence had exposed him, Ethan wouldn’t admit it.

If she was supposed to back down and let Chloe go, Ethan should pay a price.

Ethan swallowed his anger.“Alice, that was years ago. Do we need to keep bringing it up? I can compensate you.”

“I don’t need compensation,” Alice said softly.“Mr. Land, you said family comes first, and sacrificing for family is okay. This time, it’s your turn to sacrifice.”

She’d been the one sacrificing before; now she wanted to see if he’d live up to his words.

Ethan gripped the seat.“Haven’t I sacrificed enough for the Land family?” “That was your duty. Besides, Chloe’s father helped the Land family. What’s a little sacrifice? You said we should show gratitude.”

Ethan almost spat blood. He’d said those words, but he hadn’t intended to be bound by them.

Alice smirked.“That’s my condition. Give me an answer before the police investigation.”

She left. Ethan raged but could only watch her go.

He fumed, “I don’t understand. Is Alice really my sister? Why does she constantly make things difficult for me?”

His secretary, Davis, said, “Boss, Ms. Alice didn’t cause the trouble, but she’s the one who has to compromise. Anyone would be upset.” Davis was assigned by Nathan to keep an eye on Ethan.

Ethan was silent.

Davis continued, “Boss, since Ms. Alice is your real sister, your treatment of Chloe seems…odd.”

“You don’t understand,” Ethan said, his head aching as he thought about Chloe’s identity. So much time had passed. Now Lewis liked Chloe, making things even harder.

Alice went to the gym. She went to the boxing room and punched the heavy bag. If it weren’t for exposing the person behind Chloe, she’d have cut ties with the Lands.
