Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Justin saved Jasper at the cost of destroying his almost perfectly healthy body. If he had done so just to put on a show in front of him, what was his purpose for doing so?

Much to his surprise, Mandy insisted on coming along with him. She wanted to come and dote on her future daughter-in-law.

It was rare for Mandy and Cyrus to visit Crescent Bay. Thus, Newton came out in person to welcome them. It was his way of showing them his respect.

"Jonah, Silas, and Lyse bear even more resemblance to Winston." Mandy smiled warmly.

"My Dad's genes are too strong," Cyrus joked.

"Nice one! I like this chap! He's not reserved at all, just like Winston. "

Newton patted Cyrus on the shoulder. He then looked at Ben. "Ben, let Lauren know that Cyrus is here."
