Meanwhile, in another part of town, Mel was scrolling through her social media feed when a picture of Xavier and Davina on a romantic date caught her eye. They were sharing a candlelit dinner at a charming restaurant, smiles lighting up their faces. The caption read, "Date night with my love ❤️."

Seeing Xavier with Davina, seemingly in love, ignited a fiery ambition in Mel.

He’s barely better traveled than I am.” A bit of bitterness seeps into Candace’s voice there. “No, if he has any partners, they’re in Snowcrest.”
