Over the next few days, Gabriel and Anthony stayed by her side—perhaps out of guilt or fear. Gabriel did not pick up any of Hannah’s calls. The prolonged neglect made Hannah panic, and she began to target Andrea.
Photo after photo was sent to Andrea’s phone, and a video was eventually included. Even though Andrea had long known that Gabriel, Anthony, and Hannah had formed their own family, the photos of them together still stung her eyes.
The first photo showed Gabriel lovingly holding Hannah in his arms by a floor-to-ceiling window as fireworks exploded outside, Hannah’s neck was covered with hickies.
The second photo was of Anthony sleeping soundly in Hannah’s embrace. He gripped the hem of her clothes tightly as if afraid she would leave.
The third photo was a photo of Gabriel, Anthony, and Hannah together at a restaurant. The three of them sat together and were intimate like a family.
The fourth photo showed the three having a snowball fight and building a snowman. All their faces radiated happiness.
…
In the last video. Gabriel and Anthony kissed Hannah on the cheek at a birthday party.
Gabriel said, “Happy birthday, Darling.”
Anthony said, “Happy birthday, Mom.”
