I think she’s unconsciously giving more favour or attention to ashley because she’s absorbed in the idea that ashley is cinderella. she’s trying hard to not be the evil stepmom. tbh it’s not necessarily a bad thing that iris is becoming jealous of ashley, it’s normal with siblings sometimes
i agree with what ppl say in the comments tbh. it’s weird and the only way this can be okay is if the brother knows that she isn’t his biological sibling and doesn’t see her as one. because we know the mc doesn’t think of him as her brother anyway, it’s merely for survival
them fucking right next to a corpse, wild.
