Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness Novel

Chapter 251 Alice had envisioned countless scenarios , but a sudden exodus of reporters was not one of them .

It was utterly baffling .

She glanced at the TG PR team .

Rima intercepted the last reporter Excuse me , why are your all leaving ? The reporter , looking sheepishs , said , Ms.

Rima , its not personal .

I got a call from above , orders to leave .

Immediately Can you tell me who gave you those orders ? The reporter hesitated .

Honestly , Im as confused as you are .

Ill find out and get back to you .

Then , he was gone .

The last one .

Alice sat , staring at Rima .

Someone orchestrated this .

But the Windhams probably dont know .

Who has that kind of power ? To shut down all the media at once ? The Windhams didnt have that kind of clout in San Francisco , not that she knew of .

Something else was at play .

Rima pondered .

Theres one person with that kind of influence : Veronica Chen , the news .

Did you cross her ? queen of I dont know her .

We have no history .

Even in her past life , there was no connection .

Strange .

But dont worry , Ms.

Windham .

Ill investigate .

Thanks , I appreciate it .

Just as Alice finished speaking , she saw Ethan Windham striding in , flanked by a posse .

Seeing him , she had a sinking feeling .

But when did the Windhams become so powerful ? Something wasnt right .

Ethan approached Alice , sat in the chair shed just vacated , grabbed the microphone , and announced , Good afternoon , everyone .

Alice turned to him , her voice low .

You did this ? Alice , youve deeply disappointed me .

Publicly calling a press conference to expose your brothers misdeeds , huh ? Too bad , you wont get that chance .

He tossed her meticulously prepared speech into a nearby trash can , setting it ablaze with a lighter .

I warned you , family matters should be handled privately .

But you refused to listen .

Alice watched the flames consume her words .

Im shocked .

I didnt realize the Windhams held this much sway in San Francisco .

Ethan dropped the microphone , his tone a threat .

Alice , forget about speaking publicly .

No one will believe you .

Just like this .

press conference no one even showed up .

His girlfriend , Chloe , chimed in with feigned concern .

Alice , why are you fighting with your family ? What good will it do to ruin your brother ? Shut up , Chloe .

This is all your fault ! Alices meticulously planned press conference had been sabotaged .

She was seeing firsthand the raw power of influence .

Chloe , deflated , shut her mouth .

Ethans voice boomed .

Alice , Chloes right .

This is about uncovering the truth behind our parents deaths , the connections we were building .

And you just threw it all away ! Do you still 7065 Chapter 251 think youre right ? Chloes face paled .

What did that mean ? Was he still investigating the car accident ? Was he suspecting foul play ? Or even that their father wasnt dead ? Alice remembered her past life .

Ethan hadnt uncovered anything then .

Otherwise , she would have known .

This was a calculated move , using their parents death to control her .

Alice looked at Chloe .

Mr.

Windham , youre implying foul play in the car accident , arent you ? Which makes Chloes father a prime suspect .

Chloes voice cracked .

Alice , youre insane ! My father is dead .

Fear twisted her features .

Had the Windhams discovered something ? Shed always assumed she was safe ; her father only contacted her .

The Windhams wouldnt know .

But Ethan was secretly investigating the accident .

Terror gripped her .

Had he found out ? Had the person who hacked her phone been Alice or Ethan ? Alices lips curled into a smirk as she watched Chloes face drain of color .

So the innocent flower wilted under pressure .

Years of hiding her secret , and the Windhams were still investigating .

Ethan frowned .

Alice , Chloes father is dead .

He cant be a suspect .

If there was foul play , then dead people might not be so dead .

Alice locked eyes with Chloe .

Wouldnt you agree ? Chloes voice trembled .

My father is dead .

Alice , youre being cruel .

Youre saying this because you lost your parents .

I lost my father , too .

You should understand .

Chloe was trying to play the victim .

She had to insist her father was dead ; the Windhams only had suspicions , no proof .

Tears welled in her eyes .

Brother , Alice is being so mean , bringing up my deceased father .

Shes heartless .

Ethans heart softened at Chloes tears .

He turned on Alice .

Youre going too far .

You wont let the dead rest .

Dead ? Alice found it laughable .

Chloes father wasnt dead .

So , you suspect hes alive ? I wish he were .

More than you do , Chloe said , a probe in her voice .

Alices gaze was icy .

I do suspect it .

Whats the matter ? Im not scared .

Its just … unbelievable .

We both lost our parents .

Youre scared .

Chloe was trying to appear strong and composed , but she was relieved .

If Alice had hacked her phone and seen her conversations with her father , she would have revealed it already .

Alices silence meant she lacked evidence .

At that moment , Rima approached Alice .

I found out .

Mrs.

Chen , the media mogul , gave the order for the reporters to leave .

Mrs.

Chen ? Alice remembered no connection between the Windhams and the Chens in her past life .

Ethans lips curled into a cold smile .

Alice , you see ? Ive been going easy on you .

But if you continue down this path , dont blame me .

A chill ran down Alices spine .

She looked at Ethan .

But youre so desperate to silence me … arent you scared ? 21:45 Alice , how long will you keep this up ? I can crush you with a snap of my fingers ! He stormed off Chloe lingered , a smug look on her face .

Want to know about my brothers relationship with Mrs.

Chen ? Ill find out myself .

Chloe , in a designer dress , showed off her figure .

Just ask , and Ill tell you .

Alice sneered .

In her dreams .

She looked at Chloes ample bosom , then reached into Chloes dress and pulled out a breast enhancer .
