The Unwanted Daughter When Love Comes Too Late novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 A Sister’s Promise

Ivy stared straight at her, waiting for what she would say next.

Tracy spoke slowly, her voice steady. “She asked me to find you and tell you she was sorry. She couldn’t keep her promise to climb Mount Glacier with you.

“She said she opened a bank account under your name and saved all the money she earned over the years. The card is hidden in the kitchen ceiling at home. The password is your birthday.

“She told me she never once regretted pulling you out of the snow that day. What she did regret was leading you down the path of becoming a bodyguard, making you live every day on edge.”

Tracy’s words were firm, each one sinking heavy. “She said, knowing your temper, you’d want revenge. But she begged me to tell you–she doesn’t want that.

“She wanted me to look after you. To see you get married, have kids, build a family of your own, and live a safe and happy life.”

Ivy’s face stayed hard, but tears spilled down her cheeks, breaking through the steel.

Years of buried grief, longing, and fear came crashing out the moment Tracy finished speaking.

Her knees buckled, and she fell to the ground before Yvonne’s grave, sobbing uncontrollably.

The empty cemetery echoed with her cries, raw and heart–shattering.

Tracy’s eyes stung red. She turned her head slightly, fighting back the wetness in her gaze.

Yvonne, I brought Ivy to you, just like you wanted. Now you can rest easy.

The wind swept through the trees, their leaves rustling as if answering her words,

After what felt like forever, Ivy’s sobs finally faded. Her face hardened again, though her red- rimmed eyes gave her away–fragile, broken, but carrying a frightening resolve.

She lifted her head toward Tracy. “Thank you for bringing me her words. And thank you for giving Yvonne a place to rest.”

Then her voice dropped, cold and sharp. “Can you tell me who killed Yvonne?”

She wasn’t stupid. It was just that back then, with Yvonne always standing in front of her, she could live like a carefree little sister, protected and spoiled. She never had to fight for anything; she could afford to lag behind in everything.

But now, with Yvonne gone, there was no one left to shield her. She had to stand on her own.

Tracy stayed silent, deliberately avoiding answering her question. The graves without names, the people who vanished without a trace in that terrible place—it all screamed of something darker.

But she gave Ivy no answer.

After a long silence, she only asked, “You still plan to avenge her, don’t you?”
