Mandy's emotional cry reverberated down the hallway.

Naturally, Remy heard her voice too.

He was slightly stunned.

His eyes met the teary-eyed, middle-aged woman standing a few feet away from him.

For some reason, his heart felt heavy.

Even breathing stirred up some unfathomable feelings within him.

It felt just like that heavy feeling he had when he watched Alyssa, injured all over, crawling out from her car that had flipped over.

"Damien...

Is that you? Damien!" Even though Mandy was always a noble and composed person, her face was covered in tears at this very moment.

She choked with sobs and had lost her composure.

"Damien...

It's me, your mom! You're still alive...

I can't believe that you're still alive!" Mom? Dumbfounded, Remy stared at the woman who was approaching him.

It was as if someone had put his heart on pause.

His slender fingers quivered slightly as he pinched a cigarette in between his fingers.

In the next second, the splitting pain in his head pulled him back to reality.

He stubbed out the cigarette against the balcony before disappearing before vanishing from Mandy's sight in an instant.

"Damien!" Mandy ran forward as quickly as she could.

Ultimately, she lost focus and fell heavily to the ground, scraping her knees.

The pain and sadness in that moment left her unable to rise.

At the same time, from the balcony on the other side of the wall, Remy listened to Mandy's devastated cries.

He took a deep breath.
