Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Aidan called out, "Aunt Mandy."
An oppressive silence hung in the living room. Mandy gritted her teeth as she laid
her eyes on Aidan. He wore an amused expression.
He did not courteously address her as "Aunt Mandy" to protect her ego; it was all
to uphold his image and reputation as the eldest grandson of the Lovelace family.
"Grandpa hasn't been eating or drinking for two days after learning about what
Julien had done. He is bedridden because of anger. You can imagine how furious
he is now."
Aidan's eyes were emotionless as he continued, "The last time Grandpa had an
outburst of a similar extent was when you decided to be with Mr. Winston despite
knowing he was a married man. You volunteered to be his mistress, tainting you
and our family's reputations.”
Aidan had used the insulting word "mistress" to describe one of his family
members. Mandy turned white but did not back down. She might no longer be a
Lovelace, but she still carried a dignified air.
Alyssa felt a stabbing pain in her chest. Trembling, she felt anger flooding her
veins.
Jasper furrowed his brows as he grasped her cold hand tightly. At this moment,
he had finally wrapped his head around the situation. The Lovelaces had a
vendetta with the Taylors due to the relationship between Mandy and Winston.
Watching Mandy getting humiliated was Julien's last straw. He bellowed, "Aidan,
enough is enough! I have agreed to go home with you. What more do you want?"
Aidan's forehead wrinkled in anger. He pointed a finger in Julien's face. "Shut up!
This is not your place to speak!"
Alyssa glowered at Aidan. With a stifling family like this, she finally understood
why Julien chose to live abroad and struggle alone rather than come home to the
Lovelaces for an easy career in Lovelace Pharmaceuticals.
"Are you dumb or just plain stupid? Go fly a kite! Stop talking shit here!" Colene
freed herself from Lyla and Tatiana. She barged toward Aidan like an
unrestrained animal.
Thankfully, Sean stopped her halfway in her tracks. Only a six-foot man like Sean
had the strength to hold her back.
Aidan calmly chuckled. He turned to Mandy. "Aunt Mandy, Dad sent me here for
two reasons—to bring Julien home and to send you a message.
"Dad said you should keep your word after breaking ties with the Lovelace family.
Stop coming up with excuses to drag our family through the mud.
"Do you recall the time Ms. Alyssa nearly had her uterus removed after she
suffered a rupture from the miscarriage? You knelt and starved in the garden of
Grandpa's house for three days and nights, pressuring him into sharing the
medication with Ms.
"Alyssa. Grandpa gave in to you only because you were once his favorite
daughter. Remember that?"
Aidan's casual remark dropped a bomb among the Taylor family members.
Alyssa's eyes brimmed with tears as she stiffened up, paralyzed by the
excruciating heartache from the painful memories.
Jasper widened his eyes in shock and bitterness. Hanging his head low, he
closed his eyes from the pain that ripped through his chest.
"It's fine." He heard a gentle, comforting whisper in his ear. Alyssa tightened her
grip on his cold hand. She managed to utter, "It's alright, Jasper. It's all in the
past."
Her nonchalance only deepened the pain. Jasper belatedly learned that his
heartlessness had cost his Alyssa their only child, rendered her infertile, and
nearly ruined her health.
Winston's three wives were among the first ones to learn about the harsh truth.
The other family members were in the dark until Aidan exposed the truth.
"Lyse..." Always the kindest and gentlest soul, Tatiana sobbed silently in Sean's
arms. Sean cried while comforting her.
"Aidan Lovelace, are you done?" Mandy finally lost her temper.
