Chapter 3
In her previous life, she had been deceived by this innocent, harmless appearance, only to see the ceat face of this woman right before she died.
Seeing this, Brian hurried to explain, “Quilla, don’t cry, Who said you’re an outsider? From today on you’re my real sister.”
Quilla lowered her eyelids, hiding the fleeting smirk of satisfaction that appeared for a moment
Nathan then took out a small box. “Quilla, this is a gift for you.”
Quilla looked both surprised and touched. “Second Brother, isn’t this a gift for Sister Leal? How could 1 accept it?”
Leah wasn’t at all surprised when she saw the limited edition figurine inside the box.
Because in her previous life, Second Brother had also “kindly” taken her long awaited figurine and gave
to Quilla as an apology.
Nathan replied, “Take it, it’s for you. It’s what she owes you.”
Brian, not pleased, interjected,
“Leah, even though Quilla isn’t holding a grudge about you pushing her into the water earlier, and Second Brother already gave her a gift, where’s your sincerity?”
Leah nodded. “I know. That’s why I brought an apology gift.”
She removed all the jewelry she was wearing and placed it carefully on a plate.
“This is the antique phoenix crown Eldest Brother gave me.”
“This is the emerald pendant Second Brother gave me.”
“This is the hundred–year–old ginseng Third Brother gave me.”
“This is the rare pink diamond ring Fourth Brother gave me.”
“This is the jade bracelet Fifth Brother gave me.”
Six Brothers, Zero Regrets
This is the gold trophy Sixth Brother gave me.”
Leah placed everything one by one on the plate. “These are all things that are very important to me. As an
apology gift, I believe they should be enough.”
She had anticipated that Fourth Brother would question her sincerity, so she prepared these items in advance.
Since Quilla came to the Lucas family, her brothers hadn’t given her any meaningful gifts–these were the only valuable things left.
In the end, these would be taken back from her and given to Quilla for various reasons anyway.
When Brian saw the items on the plate, his expression froze.
These were all Leah’s most treasured possessions! How could she dare to give them away?
Nathan pressed his lips together. “Leah, what do you mean by this?”
“Second Brother,” Leah replied, “I said these are my sincere apologies. Fourth Brother, do you think these
are enough?”
Her expression was indifferent, showing no emotion whatsoever.

Quilla, seeing what was inside the box, was momentarily taken aback. She couldn’t figure out what Leah was up to–was this a strategy, retreating to advance?
She quickly spoke, trying to hide her unease. “Leah, these are all gifts from the brothers to you. They’re so
valuable, I can’t accept them.”
Brian, angry, said, “That’s right! These are gifts we gave you. How could you give them away?”
Quilla’s smile stiffened for a moment, and she bit her lip. “Yes, Leah, I’m just an outsider, how could I possibly deserve these gifts?”
Brian, realizing his mistake, quickly corrected himself. “Quilla, that’s not what I meant. I’ll choose a new gift for you. You can’t accept used gifts from someone else.”
Quilla immediately broke into a smile again. “Thank you, Fourth Brother.”
Brian’s heart softened instantly. Now this is the obedient little sister I’ve always wanted.
Nathan sighed. “Leah, what are you doing this for?”

“Second Brother, do I look like I’m messing around? Leah pressed, shooting the plate into Quilla’s hands. “Now these are all yours.”
She didn’t want the six brothers of the Lucas family anymore.
Quilla’s expression became awkward. She could feel that Nathan and Erian were upset, but she didars expect Leah to use such a dramatic gesture to express her dissatisfaction
Taking the box in her hands, Quilla felt her palms growing warm. She hadn’t expected Leah to use these items as an apology gift, and it caught her completely off guard.
If things weren’t handled well, it would definitely provoke the brothers resentment.
Leah had become unexpectedly hard to deal with!
Without waiting for Quilla to say anything, Leah turned and walked away.
Leah, stop right there!”
Brian was extremely angry, Leah using his own gift to apologize? What kind of apology was that?
But Leah didn’t even look back as she walked out.
Nathan frowned. “Leah is becoming more and more outrageous,”
He was very uncomfortable. The jade pendant he had given her was something he had bought with the money from his first big earnings. It had a special meaning to him.
Brian, feeling as if his punch had landed on cotton, was both frustrated and angry. “I agree. She’s doing this on purpose, trying to irritate us.”
Quilla listened to their conversation, gritting her teeth.
As expected, Leah had used this tactic of retreating to advance, and it had worked. She couldn’t let her succeed.
