Tracy was snapped back to reality. She shook her head, answering truthfully, “No, I’m worried about my uncle’s case.”
“Your uncle? Didn’t he already…”
The word “pass away” got stuck in her throat. After hesitating for a few seconds, she still didn’t say it.
I saw the person who caused my uncle’s death ten years ago. It’s Quincy, the one who went to Vector with Yvonne before. I’ve also managed to gather some evidence and sent it to my uncle’s former superior. But I’m still a little worried that the investigation will be difficult. It’s been ten years. It won’t be easy to uncover things after all this time.
This was her biggest worry. Ten years had passed. Many things might be impossible to find now. But no matter how difficult, and no matter how long it took, she would make Quincy’s family pay the price they deserved.
Sam nodded, agreeing with Tracy’s approach. “Tracy, if there is anything at all you need help with, just ask. You know my cousin is a lawyer. If you run into any trouble, just let me know, and I’ll ask him for help.”
“Mm, thank you,” Tracy said, nodding with a smile. Knowing Sam’s kindness was a comfort. It seemed that everyone except Chandler and the Xander family was treating her well. If she had realized this sooner, she wouldn’t have developed this severe stomach cancer.
At this thought, her heart sank again. Her desire to distance herself from that group grew stronger than ever.
After dinner, Tracy returned to her room, showered, and got into bed checked her phone but saw no reply from Payne, which made her fe

disappointed.
Just as she lay down, a knock came at the door. Tracy looked toward the door, confused. Who could that be?
She quickly dismissed the idea. If he’d forgotten something, he could have just called. So, who was it?
Rising with questions, Tracy shuffled over and opened the door. It was Jared.
Tracy froze for half a second and instinctively tried to close the door, but Jared was quick, blocking it with his foot. Jared squeezed past her, pushing Tracy to the side, and quickly entered the room. “Let’s talk.”
Tracy was speechless. Is this how you talk to people? Like a robber! Forcing a conversation even

After closing the door, Tracy asked irritably, “What do you want to talk about? If I’m not mistaken, we have nothing to discuss, do we?”

She intensely disliked uninvited guests, especially the Xander family. When she wanted to find them, they were nowhere to be found. Now that she didn’t want them, they kept showing up. People really are perverse.
Jared sat directly on the sofa, stretched out his long legs, and crossed them. He looked up, glancing at Tracy. “I heard you owe a lot of money, which is why you became Sam’s mistress.”
“Tracy, would you really sell your body rather than come home and apologize to us?”
He truly hadn’t expected Tracy to have fallen this low. This was an issue that could be solved by just coming home and apologizing, yet she chose the most degrading path. He found it difficult to accept. No matter how bad Tracy was, she was still a Xander family sister. If they knew her situation, they would never stand by and do nothing.
Hearing this, Tracy’s small face immediately went cold. She said coldly, “Mr. Xu, please choose your words carefully. Otherwise, I will sue you for defamation.”
He was here to mock her again. She had had enough, and she couldn’t even escape it. How were these people any different from robbers?
Jared stared at Tracy, his eyes dark. “Tracy, I’m your elder brother. How dare you speak to me like that? Where are your manners?”
He had intended to help Tracy, but seeing her attitude, he suddenly changed his mind. She brought this misery upon herself. He wouldn’t interfere in her affairs anymore.

Tracy let out a sarcastic laugh. “Have you ever seen an elder brother please his stepsister? You and Chase love Yvonne so much that you can long as you don’t bring your drama to me, I can pretend I don’t know about it. But you didn’t even show up for the third anniversary of my mother’s death. Instead, you were catering to the daughter of the woman who destroyed my mother’s marriage. Where do you get the nerve to think I would let bygones be bygones?”
Her mind was perfectly calm now. No matter what they said, she would never forgive them. Reconciliation between them would never happen in this lifetime.
“Tracy!” Jared stood up abruptly, raising his voice. “I’m trying to help you! Why are you so ungrateful?”
