Not just her personality, Ella's figure was changing too.
It had been months. The oversized hoodies and pants hid it well, but when she wore a fitted night suit, Esther could see it.
Her face glowed differently now. The softness around her cheeks had receded, and her features peeked through.
Even her body looked slimmer, still heavy to an outsider, but Esther, who had been watching closely could see the shift.
But how? Ella had eaten all the junk garbage that Esther got for her all this time, despite denying it in the name of diet. Unless—
She was pretending to eat them.
A cold glint flickered in Esther's eyes.
Ella did not know when she dozed off but during the wee hours, she heard some rustling noise.
Silver glinted in her eyes and the brush of a cold metal against her forehead froze her.
Esther knocked the gun tighter against her forehead.
