When Eva returns to town, she not only brings with her the aura of a winner but also accidentally drags the Battersby family into a new spiral of tension.

She offers to meet Leanne Battersby — the sister who has been through so much drama with her, with the hope of “reconciling and starting anew”.

But just one innocent sentence from Eva: “Why don’t you call Toyah over for a drink, to warm up the house” — has immediately frozen the atmosphere.

Because everyone knows that Leanne and Toyah Battersby are enemies after a series of old incidents.

Eva has no idea (or deliberately ignores) that the wound between them is still there. When Toyah appears, Leanne’s eyes are half loving and half angry, while Toyah’s is eerily calm. “Not everyone wants to see the past again, Eva,” Toyah said softly, then turned away.

But the real shock was when Maria stood outside, recording the scene of the three – Eva, Leanne, Toyah – facing each other in the pub. The video leaked within a few hours. A drink intended to reconcile, now became the talk of the town.
From then on, each person took a different side: Leanne tried to keep the peace, Toyah chose to stay silent, Eva was determined to prove that she “wasn’t the reason for their breakup”. And Maria? She sat watching the drama, sipping her drink and smiling.
