Dawn relentlessly posted pictures online of her newly formed family, and the overwhelming response from the public was as if they've all been waiting for this moment to arrive.
She shared images of Ezra with her son, of the two of them together, and of all of them as a group, generating excitement and cheers from followers as if they were witnessing a long-awaited event.
On the other hand, Evie observed these posts with simmering jealousy. It wasn't just envy; it felt like a string was being pulled at her heart.
Ruby had advised her to stay off her phone until the situation cooled down, but with no sign of that happening, Evie found herself sneaking online, only to be bombarded with Dawn's posts.
One photo, in particular, caught her eye—Ezra was smiling at Dawn, his eyes alight with genuine joy. It felt like a barrage of arrows piercing her heart.
