The Day Our Promise Breaks

Rosa was clearly in a rush, too. Evelyn had asked her to call Charles away from Dahlia, making it easier to get Dahlia out of the picture. Initially, Rosa intended to stand up for Evelyn, but when she saw Evelyn ready to fight her own battles, she was even more eager to

Once they managed to divert Charles away from Dahlia, Rosa realized something was amiss when she didn't find him at the family mansion. She immediately got Tony to look into it, and sure enough, Charles had shown up here. Rosa stepped in front of Evelyn, taking a protective stance.

Charles stopped, turning to face Rosa. His anger hadn't fully dissipated. His eyes were still cold, but his tone had softened a bit. "You can't just let Evelyn get away with hurting Dahlia because you like her..."

"Do you think I'm like you?" Rosa snapped back sharply. "I do care about Eve, but I haven't lost my sense of what's right and wrong!

"I had Tony dig into last night's incident. Sure, the account was Eve's, but it was hacked. The login details and timing prove Eve has an alibi. It wasn't her."
