Is that a pot with drainage? It could have gotten too wet, or too much fertilizer?
How is the temperature in the room, and on the water you used? Have it experienced sudden temperature changes? It kind of looks like it got the freeze.. lots of my plants outdoor looks like this now after the cold have gotten here..

The profile says it’s outdoors but in Pompano Beach it should be fine. It looks like the soil isn’t too wet. If the leaves responded that quickly to a watering and fertilizer I’d say either the fertilizer was too strong or the plant was too young to need fertilizer already or that the leaves were already getting older and would be coming off anyway. Rex begonia leaves can last a long time but when they’re done they wilt fast. Trim the wilted leaves off. You can actually snap them off easily by grasping the leaf stem close to where it’s coming off the main stem and push it to one side. They usually pop right off. Rarely do I cut them off because it’s so easy to snap off and it seems cleaner.
Maybe too much fertilizer and or water. I never water at night because then they just sit in soggy water. Always water during early day/mornings
And i usually do not fertilize from oct-march. Thats when plants usually need their break from active growth. Id let it dry out til the moisture meter says 3-4 before watering again. And then maybe bottom water for 15 mins so that way it'll soak up what it needs instead of drowning in water. Just my opinion.
