I had finally gotten over the fact that I was never going to see Gerald again; although I hadn't completely gotten over the guilt, it kept slowly eating at me. Also, River hadn't been in contact with anyone since Gerald's death. Jade advised me to start up something new, to get a new past time while she found out about River, Arianne and Gerald so I did just that, I got a new thing, asides Grey of course.
"Excuse me", I made my presence known to the young male receptionist who was busy typing away furiously on his phone. His head snapped up and a very much required smile was plastered on his face as he said his well-practiced line.

Life of Eve 19
Camden's family dinner was going well so far; if you considered everybody being snobby, proud and looking down on the others as going well. But I knew there was going to be drama soon, it was a natural occurrence in their family which they were all so used to that nobody gets surprised when the drama starts. This time, Natalia was all for the drama; dressed in a red sexy two-piece dress showing off her mid sized baby bump. She cleared her throat and all eyes turned to her which is what she loved, all the attention and spotlight but she was actually a pretty nice lady.Camden: Pardon me for interrupting but this chapter is about me so you'll have to listen and give me a chance. My parents are not the best and they may not even give two dicks about me but my mom was my favorite. At least she treated me like a human being, like I was worth something, she loved me as a person, as her s

20I sat there in my room, trying to put the pieces together. I had everything in the back of my mind, I hadn't forgotten anything. Arianne was supposed to be dead according to River; whom I still hadn't seen because I wasn't ready to face him just yet. According to River, he shot Arianne dead but I saw them loving up at the store and she's also Camden's girlfriend who's dropped out. And now, Gerald who would've explained everything to me was dead, how could I retrieve information? And I just knew River killed Gerald, I had a gut feeling and I could swear I was right; because for one, nobody had seen him since the day of the incident. The police

21I didn't want to involve the police but telling Jade was almost the same as telling the student union because I was ready to go all out and "get justice". I told her not to though. I was thinking about what to do when a call came through. I swiped without checking it and put it on my right ear."Hello?""Hey Eve, I haven't seen or heard from you lately so...", I definitely didn't expect him to call me. "Would you like to go out with me tonight?""Yes!!", That came out way too fast and I cleared my throat. "I meant yeah sure, I'm free tonight"
Life of Eve 22
22I know what you're thinking, I should've told Grey about River but I didn't want to bring of my old problems into a new relationship. It's wrong of me to keep it from him but I just couldn't bring myself to tell him because what should I have said? My crazy ex-boyfriend who is a probable murderer is threatening and blackmailing me to keep having sex with him and running for couple of the year or he would leak my sex video? How does that sound to you? Honestly, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to tell him that so I had to keep it in.Anyways, since I was free, I decided to question Arianne subtly; get some information and basically anything I c
Life of Eve 23
23Now we were sure Ari was the same Arianne River told me about; there was no way in hell we could be mistaking now, I saw her myself with him at the store the other day so there was absolutely no way I was missing this one. Now all I needed to do was get her history with River and find out if he was Gerald's murderer.The police weren't doing anything at all like they claimed, they said they were investigating but they hadn't come up with anything in a while. They knew he was strangled so why not perform the fucking autopsy, collect some DNA and run a DNA test or some of that shit like they do in the movies.They took our statements and it's been three weeks already, how long would it take the whole force to find out who killed a college student whose body was found on a lake? I wasn't surprised though, after all, he was just a good old college boy, he wasn't an influential person or anything and that was why they were
Life of Eve 24
24Turns out the saying is actually true. Not all that glitters is gold. When River was doing those nice things, I thought he was a good person and I could trust him, I even hurriedly agreed to a relationship with him hoping and trusting he wasn’t like other men. Unknown to me, he was worse than other men, I regret ever meeting him.That aside, the damage had already been done, we just had to find a way to undo it. Camden still didn’t know anything about what was going on; Arianne made me promise not to tell anyone, not even Camden. She was worried her "secret" would be out and somebody would try to involve the police which would lead to her family getting hurt.Camden: I really wish I did.
Life of Eve 25
25"Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God", Arianne whispered to herself. "What the fuck have I done? I'm a fucking murderer, just like him", she cried as he knees met the floor painfully, the gun slipping off her hand and hitting the floor with a hard thud."Aria–""No, I'm a murderer, I'm a-a m-murderer. I k-killed him""In self defense", I raised a brow at her and her head snapped up to me immediately. I nodded, conveying my point and she thought about it for a while before her eyes turned to Grey."I don't even know what the fuck is going on", Grey raised his hands.I know, it was a lie but River deserved it, he deserved to die after everything he put everybody through and him killing Gerald. I knew it wasn't right of me to try and cover it up or even suggest it but if you were in my shoes, you would've done the same. I understood why she did what she did and she deserved happiness. S
