Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 2055

"M-Mandy? Why..." Joseph's chest tightened. His expression changed in an instant.

Despite their past animosity and Mandy slapping his face, seeing her still stirred something in him. His heated gaze lingered on her captivating face.

"With everything that's happened, you must be overwhelmed and haven't had time for Dad."

Mandy set down the bowl and picked up a napkin to wipe Edgar's mouth. Without glancing at Joseph, she continued, "Even though I've married Winston, and you may not readily accept him, I am still a Lovelace. It would be heartless of me not to return at this time."

Joseph frowned, feeling suspicious.

"Mandy... Thank you for coming to see me..."

Edgar's eyes glistened with tears as he tightly squeezed Mandy's hand. "I've been too harsh on you before and caused us to misunderstand each other for so many years. We were at odds for so long. I don't know if I'll ever have a chance to make up for my mistakes..."

"Dad, it doesn't matter anymore. Everything's in the past," Mandy reassured him gently. "Besides, blood is thicker than water. You'll always be my dad, and we'll always be family."

"Blood is thicker than water." Those words sounded unbearably harsh to Joseph.

In this family, ultimately, only Mandy was Edgar's biological child. Their sudden reconciliation during this critical moment made him feel even more like an outsider.

"Mandy, you've had a long day. You should go home now. I need to talk to Jo," Edgar said softly.

Obediently, Mandy got up. She shot Joseph a cold glare as she passed by. Her gaze was piercing and unsettling.

Once the door closed, the fleeting peace in the room vanished.
