Six Brothers Plea for Forgiveness (Alice)

Alice's expression remained cold."Let's be clear, you colluded with Hunter Davis to harm me, you're the culprit! You're the one who's going down, not me

This is your fault. Alice! Why didn't you help me in the first place?" Jane walled.

“Why should I help you? Besides, Hunter Davis's been caught, those videos and pictures will all be deleted; they never got out. You're just stupid; whose fault is that?noveldrama

Jane crumbled. She realized she'd made a mistake, shouldn't have tried to shift the blame onto Alice. Otherwise, Alice wouldn't have revealed the truth.

The professor turned to Jane. "How do you explain this?"

Jane trembled, terrified. It wasn't me! I didn't do anything!”

“But last night, many students heard your conversation with Hunter Davis. You planned this with him!”

“Jane, come with us. We need to investigate this thoroughly. Otherwise, you'll be going to the police station!* Jane cried hysterically, refusing to move from her bed. The professors exchanged glances, speechless at Jane's behavior, but they didn't dare to force her.

Alice sneered. “It'll be the same when the police take statements. Jane and Hunter Davis are accomplices. I'll pursue this to the end and make sure they face legal consequences!" Upon hearing this, Jane broke down completely. Tm a victim too! Why punish me?"

A professor tried to calm her.“Jane, if you're a victim, tell us the truth. We can help you with the police. Otherwise, your parents will have to bail.

you out."

"My parents can't know about this! I'll be killed!"

The mention of her parents sent Jane into a panic. Reluctantly, Jane left with the professors.

Soon, only Alice and Chloe remained in the dorm.

Alice looked at Chloe."Some people are beyond saving. Jane was the one who tried to frame me first."

"I know. Jane brought this on herself."

Chloe didn't want to get involved further. Jane's fate was entirely her own doing. Besides, many dorm residents had witnessed Jane talking to Hunter Davis last night. If Jane hadn't said anything, things might have been swept under the rug. As long as Alice didn't

As long as Alice didn't press charges, the school would've tried to minimize the damage.

But Jane was stupid and selfish. No one could help her now.

Having no classes in the morning, Alice opened her laptop and organized the evidence from Hunter Davis's phone. There were details of Hunter Davis taking bribes, embezzling club funds, and even match-fixing.

But there was no evidence of money laundering for the Garcia family. It seemed Hunter Davis had deleted everything after learning about the senior student's

report.

She only found a financial statement related to the Garcia family's investment in the gaming

team, but it wasn't sufficient as evidence. However, telling the Garcia family she had evidence. was enough to give Hunter Davis a hard time. The Garcias would definitely silence Hunter Davis to avoid further trouble!

Alice submitted the evidence, reporting, Hunter Davis for dereliction of duty as team captain. In the afternoon, Alice and Chloe went to class, hearing whispers about the dorm incident everywhere. Alice walked into the classroom, used to the curious stares.

After class, her advisor texted her: [Come to my office after class.]"

Alice guessed it was about her report on Hunter Davis. She'd made the report publicly, without hiding anything

Chloe looked at Alice. "Should I come with you to testify?"

"No, the evidence is sufficient. Can you grab my books?"

Chloe nodded. “I'll head back then.”

Alice went to the office alone. The headmaster and the advisor were both there.

The headmaster's tone was unfriendly. “Alice, you're reporting Hunter Davis. Was it because of a lovers' quarrel that he snuck into your dorm?"

"Even if there was a conflict, Hunter Davis bribed the matron to enter the student dormitory and attempted assault! This isn't the first time he's done this! That's what the school should be investigating, not trying to twist a crime into a lovers' quarrel!”

The headmaster raised his voice.“Alice, speak properly! We're asking you a question!” But Alice stood her ground. With so much evidence, she wouldn't compromise

Then, Luke burst into the office. "The one who should be speaking properly is "you"! Alice didn't do anything wrong. Why are you trying to manipulate her and distort the facts?" Alice frowned when she saw Luke. What was he doing here?

Coldly, she told Luke, "Please leave the office."

The headmaster pointed at Luke.“Outsiders, please leave! This is an office, not a public space."

Luke slammed his hand on the desk. "I'm Alice's brother, her guardian. Why can't I be here?"

A guardian?

The headmaster wilted at the mention of a guardian. “Isn't Alice an orphan?”

The advisor spoke up."Headmaster, I told you, she's not an orphan."

The headmaster hadn't been present during the online rumors incident. But he and the principal had been thoroughly embarrassed.

"Who said Alice is an orphan? Our parents passed away a long time ago, but she has a brother!"

The advisor whispered, "But the person who came last time wasn't you.

"That was my second brother. We have seven siblings!"

The headmaster's attitude immediately softened."Alice's guardian, we're investigating the

matter!"

Luke angrily addressed the advisor. "The school needs to explain what happened in the dorm. If Alice hadn't been quick-witted, last night could have been far worse. Is this how you ensure

student safety?"

The headmaster was thoroughly scolded. He apologized cautiously. “Our work was indeed inadequate. Ms. Alice is a victim. We'll investigate thoroughly. You can leave now, Ms. Alice."

"No, the Windham family will be pursuing this!"

Alice was irritated. “Luke, what's wrong with you? Who told you to claim to be my family? I have nothing to do with your Windham family!"

She turned to the headmaster."I have all the evidence. If the school tries to protect Hunter Davis, I'll sue!"

The headmaster wiped his sweat. "The school never said it would protect Hunter Davis. We just wanted to clarify the situation. You've misunderstood!"

This Alice was difficult to handle!

There was nothing they could do.

Having achieved her goal, Alice left the office. Luke followed her, his tone cautious. "Second Brother heard about this and told me to support you. He says he's ashamed to face you.

"I would've been fine without you! Don't interfere, and don't try to claim any familial relationship with me!" Alice's tone was resolute.

"Alice, do you really think you can handle this alone?"

Alice saw Luke's father and stepmother, Chloe, coming down the stairs. Her sarcastic smile deepened.

Luke's father, stony-faced and reeking of alcohol, said, “Hunter Davis is connected to the Garcia family! Do you know what kind of trouble you've gotten yourself into?"

Ah, here comes the reckoning.
