Chapter 178

Luke was filled with regret. He should have listened to Luke; he wouldn't have fallen for Chloe's trick. If he'd exposed Chloe, Alice wouldn't be so angry, and Luke's father's project wouldn't have been disqualified.

Chloe took a few steps back."Sixth Brother, I did it for Dad's investment, for Second Brother's project. I didn't expect Alice to trick me!"

"Trick you?"

"Yes! Alice clearly set a trap!"

Luke's face hardened. “You jumped into the trap, dragging me along! You plagiarized! You tricked. Alice first, causing this!

It's all your fault!"

Luke, hearing Chloe's twisted account, might have believed her in the past. But this time, he'd witnessed everything. Alice was innocent; Chloe had tried to frame her but failed.

Chloe was surprised Luke wasn't falling for it. Resentment flared within her.

She looked at Luke. “Sixth Brother, don't forget you tacitly approved my actions, meaning you agreed with me, right?"

"Shut up! Don't compare me to you!"

Luke was angry and guilty.

"Sixth Brother, need I remind you? Lately, haven't you been trying to make Alice return to the Windhams and rejoin your team?"

Chloe's eyes were mocking."You're

shifting

the blame. That's unfair."

“Chloe, I never expected you to be this kind of person!"

Luke grabbed Chloe's shoulders."Tell Dad the truth. I wasn't involved."

"Will he believe me?"

Luke was stunned."[Chloe, this is your true face, isn't it?]"

Chloe looked innocent. Sixth Brother, I've always been this way. You're the one who can't face. your actions." "Enough."

Luke pushed Chloe away; she fell, hitting her head on the steps, bleeding profusely.

Luke was surprised by the blood. Luke approached, helping Chloe up."[Sixth Brother, what did you do?]"

Luke was stunned."[I didn't mean to.]"

Chloe, seeing Luke helping her, looked surprised.“[Second Brother, it's not Sixth Brother's fault. I stumbled. He didn't mean to.]"

Luke was disgusted by Chloe's manipulative words; he let go of her.

He looked at Luke.“[Sixth Brother, what did you and Chloe do yesterday? I received a lawyer's letter. Maple Leaf, represented by Alice, is suing both of you,]"

Luke's face fell.

"I'm sorry. Second Brother. I messed up." He should

He should have stopped Chloe. Luke was anxious. “What happened? Why weren't you at the meeting yesterday?]” Chloe said. “[Dad said you needed rest and not to bother you.]"

Luke's father had feared Luke seeing Alice and acting irrationally, so he'd kept it from him! Alice had escaped again!

"Enough, Chloe. Do you think I'll believe this lie?"

Luke didn't believe her. Luke's father was probably afraid he'd side with Alice.

Chloe was startled; the blood on her forehead was clotting."[Second Brother, I really wanted to help you!]"

Luke said nothing, coldly scanning Chloe.

Luke, like a zombie, recounted yesterday's events.

Luke, enraged, grabbed Luke's collar.“[Are you crazy? Why did you help Chloe? Did

what I said?]"

"[Second Brother, I regret it. What do I do?]"

Luke's face was contorted; he couldn't even cry!

you forget

Luke hadn't expected things to turn out this way. He released Luke.“[I'll replace Dad!]" Luke left to confront his father. Why had he done this?!

Chloe stood alone, ignored. The contrast made her uncomfortable. In the past, her brothers: wouldn't have minded her injuries.

Why was it different now? She'd wanted to use this injury

use this injury to win Luke back. She looked at Luke cautiously, showing her injured forehead."[Sixth Brother, I was angry... Luke walked away

without looking.

Chloe's pitiful expression turned sour. Damn it, the pity card

the pity card didn't work.

She called Garrett Yates, her voice choked with false emotion."[Ayuan, I'm dying......”

She needed someone to take responsibility; she shouldn't have been hurt for nothing! Luke and Luke had changed; she needed a plan. Garrett Yates was her best option. He was naive, rich, and easily manipulated. Once she married into the Yates family, crushing Alice would be easy!

Alice and Chloe went to the team base to select new members; they were going to the finals.

Chloe looked at Alice, hesitant.

Alice asked, "What is it?"

“[You're amazing. Some family ties are weak.]”

Alice smiled. Was she trying to comfort her?

Alice replied calmly, “[I don't care about the Windhams anymore.]"

Chapter 171

She had her life, career, and friends. She didn't crave their so-called brotherly love. Her senior arrived."[Captain, tickets for the finals are hard to get. Scalpers are charging a lot.]” “[Buy them. Every member who qualifies can go. I'll pay!]"

Alice was in a good mood. If the Al project succeeded, this was nothing. She was a successful

woman.

Her senior sighed."[Let's have everyone try to buy tickets themselves. Scalpers are too expensive. You're not thrifty. The team needs sponsors; we need money!]"

Alice, after reviewing the budget, became more reasonable. She needed to replace sponsors. Daniel's after-party invitation might help!

Leaving the base, Alice rubbed her arms and decided to rest in the dorm. She should listen to Jack and rest.

Just as she lay down, her phone rang. Luke's father's cold voice:“[Alice, you actually sued your family? You ungrateful wretch!]"

So soon? Looks like he got the lawyer's letter.

Alice said calmly, "[I signed the disinheritance agreement.]"

"[What does that mean? You're a Lu in life, a Lu in death. If Mom and Dad knew you the family name, how

heartbroken they'd be!]"

Alice sat up, her eyes icy.
