Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 369

As soon as I heard them talking with such fervor, I whipped out my phone and checked the trending

topics, and there it was—a post featuring a video clip from that night Jaylan and his family went out to

pay their respects at the graveyard.

The title of the post was a warning—"Be careful when lighting candles—fire safety first, don't get

burned!"

Perhaps it was the sheer shock value of the video, the unexpected nature of the event, or the hint of

paranormal activity that caught the attention of netizens. The post quickly gained traction and drew a Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

flood of online traffic.

Some users zoomed in on the video and took screenshots, trying to captivate the audience even more.

Before long, some eagle-eyed netizens started to notice something amiss.

First, someone pointed out that the face in the photo propped up in the video belonged to Evan.

Next, it was revealed that the very spot where the tribute was held was where the police had found

Evan's body!

The online community exploded with curiosity and speculation. The intensity of the internet sleuthing

was unimaginable.

Before long, the focus turned to Jaylan, and it was confirmed that the person who suffered burns was

Jaylan's mother, Hazel! At this, the public outcry began anew. Questions arose about Evan's identity,

and why the Dawson family hadn't come forward during the search to claim the child as one of their

own.

Conjectures and theories abounded, each more inventive than the last.

I knew the internet was powerful, but I had never anticipated this magnitude of response. In just a short

while, the online world was hit by a tsunami of reactions.

People began to question the Dawsons' motives. Was the midnight tribute an act of guilt, or grief? Was

it to console their own spirits, or to appease the dead? Was it an acknowledgment or an attempt to shift

blame?

The accusations varied, but the sentiment was the same. And within an hour, people were already at

the hospital where Hazel was being treated, looking for the truth to confirm the stories circulating

online.

Soon after, photos of Hazel's burns were leaked.

The public didn't know, but I was well aware that Logan and his friends were behind it.

The situation seemed out of control, yet it was unfolding with precision.

Quickly, I put my phone away.

The guys had finished the meal I had arranged, and it looked like the next phase of their plan was

about to begin.

If I hadn't known that the instigators of this online earthquake were sitting right in front of me, I would

never have believed that such a few people, chatting and laughing, could be behind it all.

AzureEnchantress was a case in point, even if I knew she wasn't the actual mastermind behind it all.

As for us, it was clear we were just a tool they used during their operations.

Ronan stood up to see Hannah and me off. At the door, he looked at me and said, "Jaylan will probably

have to leave Silverdale City soon!"

I asked him worriedly, "Do you think he'll take the bait? I'm not sure about his attitude today!"
