Chapter 180 Alices eyes flickered with suspicion at Daviss words .
Seriously ill ? She remembered Luke had a stomach problem .
She hadnt heard about any serious illness in her past life ! But Luke did look thinner .
Luke straightened , pushing Davis away .
Im fine .
Old problem .
] * [ But sir … ] [ Davis , you talk too much .
Luke stopped Davis , looking at Alice .
Im not here to plead .
They made mistakes ; they should be punished .

She hadnt expected him to give her the company ! After the surveillance incident , Luke had seen through Chloe , regretting his actions and wanting to compensate her ? Alice glanced at it but didnt take it .
[ I dont need it .
] * [ No , this is my choice .
I was a bad brother .
I didnt notice you suffered so much , were tricked by Chloe , misunderstood , punished , and favored over an outsider .
] Luke pressed the document into her hand .
[ Ive signed it .
] Alice threw it away .
[ I dont want it ! ] The papers scattered on the ground .
Lukes face was gaunt .
[ Alice , I wasnt a good brother , but Ill learn .
] [ Who you want to be a good brother to is none of my business ! ] [ How can I make it up to you ? I want to be better to you ! ] * [ Stay away from me .
Alice turned and left .
Luke stood there , watching her disappear .
His hands trembled as he picked up the papers .
He crouched , unable to stand .
Davis watched , heartbroken .
Hed warned Luke about Chloe , but he hadnt listened ! Alice was independent ; she didnt rely on the Windhams .
Reconciliation was difficult .
Alice returned to the dorm , feeling uneasy .
Shed always liked Luke best .
Lukes father was often away , short tempered , and demanding ; shed been afraid of him .

The third brother was always in the lab or hospital .
The others had their careers ; Luke was the youngest and often home .
But it was Luke whod cared for and raised her .
In her past life , Luke had sided with Chloe .
Alice had fragmented memories from that life .
Chapter 170- She pushed those thoughts aside .
She didnt crave their brotherly love or their belated attempts at amends .
Lying in bed , she saw a notification about an expired red envelope .
Jack hadnt accepted the money .
Alice texted him : [? ] Jack , in a meeting , saw the notification .
He opened the chat , a slight smirk on his lips .
He replied : [ How are the patches ? ] * Alice was surprised by the instant reply .
[ Theyre good .
Where did you buy them ?] [ Take more when you run out .
Get some rest .
] * Alice thought he knew what she meant .
He wasnt answering her question ! She sent an ellipsis , but he didnt reply .
She tossed her phone aside .
On the weekend , the finals were at the stadium .

As the match started , fewer people remained outside .
Alice was about to enter when she saw the Windhams arriving .
Chloe was with Lukes father .
Seeing them , she smirked , walking towards the stadium .
Alice , stop ! Alice didnt turn , but bodyguards blocked her .

We accept defeat .
But youre suing Chloe and Sixth Brother ? Do you have the face to tell Mom and Dad when you graves ?] visit their [ You have the face , so why shouldnt I ? ] Her parents were her biggest vulnerability .
She felt immense guilt .
[ Alice , Chloe was brought into our family for you , to repay a debt .
Youre repaying kindness with cruelty .
You have no face to visit your parents graves ! You dont deserve to .
] * Lukes father knew how to hurt her , to make her yield .
Chloe feigned sincerity .
[ Alice , weve had conflicts , but I always considered you family .
Im sorry .
Please forgive me .
] Lukes father was pleased by Chloes obedience .
He snorted at Alice .
[ Chloes apologizing .
You should know what to do .
Youd be disrespecting your parents and Chloes deceased father ! ] Chloes eyelid twitched .
Her father wasnt dead .
Shed keep that secret forever .
It was her only leverage with the Windhams ! 2 Alice looked at the sky , swallowing her anger .
