Eve’s confession revealed a disturbing truth about her obsession with Lily’s well-being. She explained that her growing attachment to the baby had fueled her excessive worries and led her down a dangerous path. In her misguided belief that she was protecting the child, she had violated their privacy and crossed a line that could never be justified.
Julian and Jennifer were both outraged and devastated by Eve’s admission. They couldn’t fathom how someone they had welcomed into their lives had betrayed their trust in such a profound way. The sense of violation was overwhelming, and they grappled with a mix of anger, sadness, and confusion.
