Cold Apocalypse: All Who Harm My Sister Must Die

The wall clock struck five o'clock precisely on time.

I opened my eyes, got up from the garage floor mat, and prepared the bathwater and set out the table.

Daisy's family is about to get up, and I have to finish the chores before they wake up, or I'll get beaten and humiliated.

On the surface, I am the master of this house, but in reality, I am the most lowly servant in this family.

Three years ago, in order to treat my sister Jessica's illness, I brought her to this city for medical treatment, and we quickly spent all our savings.

After making inquiries from various sources, I learned that a family was looking for a partner for their pregnant daughter. These wealthy families were worried that their daughters' reputations would be ruined by being pregnant out of wedlock, and they wanted to find a sucker to take over the pregnancy legitimately.

What is this little thing compared to my sister? On that rainy night, I knelt firmly in front of Daisy's house. I was willing to give anything as long as Daisy's family was willing to pay for my sister's treatment.

After learning that Jessica's illness was a long-term chronic disease, Daisy's family treated her sister even worse.

“If it can’t be cured, it’s better to give up sooner rather than later.” Daisy looked down on Jessica, thinking she was a lowly country girl who didn’t deserve to share a room with her.

I couldn't move into the villa, so I had to make a bed for myself in the garage. My sister Jessica's room kept getting smaller and smaller, until in the end she had to sleep with the clutter.

"The money's here! You'll be doing double the work from now on! You have to obey whatever we say unconditionally!" Daisy's parents were arrogant and domineering.

I took the money and found it wasn't the amount we'd agreed on. Just as I was about to question her, I heard my sister cough. She really couldn't afford to delay any longer. I could only grit my teeth and nod in acceptance.

For three years, I helped Daisy's family deal with smuggled goods and countless illegal items, but all I could earn was a meager amount of money to buy medicine.

My sister's illness was getting worse and worse, but I never suspected that Daisy's family had poisoned her food. As long as her illness could not be cured, I would always be at the mercy of Daisy's family, subject to their humiliation, beatings, and manipulation.

In my previous life, my last mission went awry. After a fierce gunfight with the police in an abandoned warehouse, I dragged my wounded body home, only to receive devastating news—Jessica was missing.

I clutched her clothes and wept bitterly, unaware that behind me, Daisy's father had raised his shotgun again...

"I must protect her!" This was my only thought after my rebirth.

At the end of the corridor, a sliver of light shone from Jessica's room, like the only anchor point in the darkness.

I pushed open the door and found her leaning against the pillow reading. The small room, only a few square meters in size, was filled with clothes and other odds and ends, and didn't even have a window.

"Brother, you didn't sleep well again, your eyes are all red." Jessica frowned with concern.

"It's alright." I sat down by the bed, touched her forehead; her temperature was normal. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Did you take your medicine on time?"

"I've eaten, and I'm feeling much better." She clutched the book to her chest. "Look, I sat up and read for quite a while today, and I didn't feel dizzy at all."

I held her hand without saying a word. Her fingers were slender and cold, and I slowly warmed them up.

The sound of slippers clattering echoed down the hallway.

Daisy's father pushed open the door and glanced at us out of the corner of his eye, a look of disdain on his lips.

"Slacking off again? Stop dawdling and go get the goods! They won't magically appear and come to you!"

Daisy's mother followed behind, covering her face in disgust. "Do you still want your money? Let me tell you, this shipment is more important than your two lives. You can't afford to delay it."

I stood up, responded, and hurriedly said goodbye to my sister.

But instead of starting the car immediately like in my previous life, I hid in the garage and eavesdropped on their conversation.

“That girl is a burden. Once Charlie leaves, we’ll get rid of her and throw her into the back hill.”

"The end of winter is just around the corner, and we don't want to keep useless people around."

"What if Charlie comes back and asks?" Daisy's father's voice sounded somewhat doubtful.

"Are you stupid? Once Charlie comes back and we get our hands on the winter supplies, what use will he be? Let's take advantage of him when he's not looking!"

Daisy's mother said with a grin, "Old man, hurry up and get your hunting rifle out!"

"This is outrageous!" I was so angry I almost ground my teeth to powder. I slipped away from the eyes of the other servants and went back into the house.
