Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 2295

That day, after Cyrus and Alyssa reached an agreement, Cyrus returned home to update Winston and Mandy.

Winston had already assumed that Mandy had misidentified Remy, thinking it was just a result of her longing for Damien. He hadn't held out much hope from the start. Mandy, however, was devastated. Her disappointment ran deep, and her emotions were heavily affected.

Initially, she was doubtful, but she eventually had to accept the truth. She spent three or four days in bed, overwhelmed with despair.

Tears brimmed in her eyes as she spoke.

Thanks to her meticulous self-care, Mandy always appeared refined and younger than her years, but she looked noticeably aged after just a few days of sadness.

"Mandy, I understand exactly how you feel," Alyssa said, her voice thick with emotion. She held Mandy's cold hands tightly. "I wish more than anything that Damien was alive too... but that man wasn't him. He just looks a lot like Damien."

Mandy closed her eyes, shaking her head in bitter disappointment.
