Chapter 258 Alice smirked, even Edhan had his breaking point. Caleb and thosh wood beside bar, egerity aligning themselves with her Erhan printed at Caleb and Noah, spitting out his words âYers ingratas? If je wezenât for me your companies wouldnât exist! Now you transfer your shares to Alice Have you Noah chuckled latterly âBrother, youâre the mad one. Alickâs cat sunt, the cut every!â He couldnât understand Edhanâs actions Chloe, beside herself with anger, couldnât believe Caleb and Noah were siding with Alice, transferring their shares to her. If Alice became the majority shareholder, her plan would fail She was furious âSecond Brother, you know how much Big Brother has sacrificed for the family. He gave you shares out of brotherhood. Ganging up on him is cruel âDonât try that moral high ground crap,â Alice cut her off. He took all the family money and assets to start his business. It was everyoneâs investment; the share dividends are only fair.â Chloeâs eyes welled up. âBig Brother, if I had shares, Id never betray you.â Ethan was speechless, dumbfounded by the turn of events. He looked at Noah and Caleb. Are you sure you want to side with Alice against me?
Noah replied, âBrother, Iâm not against you. Giving the company to Chloe is worse than giving it to Alice. At least Aliceâs scripts made the company a lot of moneyâ
âHumph, youâve forgotten Alice sending Sixth Brother and Fourth Brother to prison? Sheâs cold and heartless towards the family.
Have you forgotten? Ethan was truly heartbroken. He hadnât expected his brothers to turn against him. Heâd done all this for the family Caleb answered sharply.âBrother, are you out of your mind? What happened with Alice was my fault. I wanted to break her limbs, to teach her a lesson. I was misled by that bitch, Chloe. I was wrong. It was my mistake and Chloeâs, not Aliceâs.â
âAnd Sixth Brother? Chloe stole Aliceâs documents and brought Sixth Brother down. Sixth Brother wasnât blameless, but the culprit was Chloe. Alice was the victim!â
Ethan gritted his teeth.âAlice set them up.â
âDid Alice force Chloe to steal her documents? No. We were wrong from the start!â Caleb grabbed Ethanâs collar, pointing at Chloe. âThis woman is the culprit. Both incidents were because of her!â
Chloe, seeing this, said pitifully, âFourth Brother, I only did that to help Second Brotherâs company win the bid. And you attacking Alice has nothing to do with me. Youâve always been quick to use violence.â
Caleb exploded.
Ethan pushed Caleb away.âI know Chloe better than you. Sheâs clumsy, but sheâs not malicious.â Hearing ânot malicious,â Alice almost burst out laughing.
She didnât bother explaining. Do whatever you want with Chloe, but you have no say over the company. Chloeâs fired.ââ
Caleb, regaining his composure, said, âBrother, I built this company. Chloe doesnât deserve it.â
âIâve already signed Chloe to an artist contract. Sheâll star in future projects, including at supporting role in the upcoming movie.â
Ethan remained arrogant.âThe contract is binding. Event if you want to break it, youâll have to pay Chloe a hefty sum.â
Alice chuckled. Ethan excelled at being a jerk. Heâd already arranged everything for Chloe, so fast! Caleb sneered.âSo what?
The company has its own plans. Chloeâs acting is atrocious.â As long as Ethan wasnât in charge, Chloe wouldnât get wouldnât get any good resources. Alice smirked at Chloe.âAs the boss, I have to say, improve your acting. Earn money for the company. Oh, wait, your acting is superb. Being ant actress is perfect for you.â Chloeâs face twisted with rage. She wanted to be the boss, to call the shots. But Alice had stolen everything. It was unbearable.
Caleb mocked,âHer acting sucks. Sheâs only good at playing the innocent victim in the Windham family. Sheâs nothing outside of that.â
Chloe, tears welling up, ran out of the room. It was too humiliating.
Ethan looked at Alice. âYouâre quite something, getting them. to side with you!â
âItâs not my skill, but because Iâm right, and they feel guilty.â She wasnât sure how long that guilt would last, but she just needed to push Chloe to a breaking point, forcing her backers to reveal themselves.
âFine, Alice, donât think youâve won.â
Noah said, âBrother, you wanted us to be a family again, right? Alice wonât press charges against Fourth and Sixth Brother. You should keep your promise and let Alice return.â
Ethan tugged at his tie.âI did, but have certain people truly repented?â
Alice said indifferently, âIâm not the one who needs to repent.â
âNo, it wasnât Alice. It was us.â
Luke Luke entered, looking apologetic at Alice.âI was a fool, manipulated by Chloe. Fourth- Brotherâs right; Iâm not blameless. Iâll transfer my shares to you as compensation.â
Caleb followed suit.âAlice, Sixth, Second, and I apologize. We were wrong. You werenât.â
Alice remained silent. Noah approached.âAlice, we know we were wrong. Come home.â
Alice noticed Chloe at the doorway. Chloe dreamt of kicking Alice out and taking her place, including her fatherâs role. She wouldnât let them succeed.
She smirked. Fine, I accept the reconciliation!â
If she pretended to return to the family, Chloe and her backers would be forced to act. After Alice spoke, Chloe emerged, looking pitiful at Ethan.âBig Brother, youâll accept her back, right?â That bitch, Alice. Why did she come back?
