Chapter 30
Unknown POV
After the big revelation of Eva being Louisa and Emily, the supposed dead girl being alive, things changed.
The Montero’s had peace for a while since Skyler was still on her trip, Emily was starting to enjoy living with her new family, everybody pretended to be happy but they all knew that war was coming but they didn’t know when.
Eva also had the time to plan everything but planning isn’t always plotting.
“You are back.” Eva forced a smile to welcome her favourite villian.
“Yeah, I am, you missed me?.” A sly smile was visible on her face.
“You wish.” She rolled her eyes playfully.
“So, how was your trip?.”
“Quite boring without you but I tried to enjoy myself, I had to come back because I have a lot of things to finish.”
“Like what?.” Eva questioned innocently as she sipped her coffee.
“You don’t need to bother about it.”
“Okay.”
“Have you been checking up on Emily?”
“Ummm… not really.”
“She’s not at her apartment.”
“Maybe she got tired of being an introvert.”
“That doesn’t even relate, so she hasn’t contacted you?.”
“No, you are closer to her than I am, why would I be the first person she would call?.” Eva said with a shrug hoping it would convince Skyler and it did cause now Skyler poured herself a cup of coffee and changed the subject.
“Speaking of people that haven’t contacted me, I haven’t heard from Alex for a while,” Skyler said thoughtfully.
“Called him yet?”
“No, he might be busy and he would have dropped by while I was away. Seen him by any chance?” Skyler was asking suspicious questions watching Eva’s reaction throughout the process.
“No he didn’t drop by, haven’t seen him” Eva answered with a shake of head.
“That’s strange, maybe he’s with his abomination Petra” Eva fists clenched when she heard her sister being called an abomination.
“That’s a vague suspicion Skyler, it’s far from possible after what he said about her on television….. You should call him to know the truth”.
“I think I’ll do just that,” Skyler said, bringing her phone out of her bag, dialling Alex’s number and putting it on loudspeaker.
“Hey honey, I was afraid you won’t pick up”.
“Hi babe, are you back from your trip?” Alex said from the other end of the line.
“Yes yes, I have missed you and Eva so much but it seems like you’re the only one who didn’t miss me you never left a call”.
“I dropped by last week but I didn’t see you home. I saw only Eva, didn’t she pass the message?” Skyler looked straight into Eva’s soul from across the kitchen table, Eva’s eyes were filled with shock and fear.
“She did, she did. How could I forget about that? You dropped by last Thursday right?”
“Yes babe, I’m glad she told you”
“I’ll be seeing you soon Alex, real soon” The coldness in her tone sent chills through Eva’s body and Alex felt it too from the other side of the call.
“Babe what do you mean-” Skyler hung up, cutting him short. She looked at Eva for a while before approaching her slowly, drawing a line with her nail on the kitchen table as she prowled towards Eva.
“So who’s lying between the two of you?” The coldness had intensified.
“I…. I…. Skyler it’s not what you think”.
“Maybe the two of you are just confused liars who were oblivious of my camera I used in watching all your moves and cunning acts….. I’m disappointed in you Eva I took you as a sister” The pain I’m Skyler’s voice was evident because she was near tears now.
“I had to do it Sky, it’s time you stop please just end all of this….. I never took you for a villain you never were……. So why now? Why Petra of all people?” Eva asked, crying.
“You only say those words because she’s your sister, imagine a nobody coming from nowhere to steal everything you’ve suffered to build from scratch and tell me if you wouldn’t take the same steps I did” Skyler was still walking towards her making Eva back up.
“There’s another way to do this, revenge is not the only way”.
“If there is then tell me my friend, that’s why you’re my friend right? To help me in my dire time of need, tell me how can I solve Alex’s mistake and what would I do about Petra’s pregnancy?” Skyler asked, reaching her hand to Eva with tears in her eyes. Eva hesitated for a minute but when she saw how serious Skyler was about repentance she walked into Skyler’s arms hugging her with the hope of comforting her.
“Hey it’s going to be okay, stop crying Skyler we’ll figure-” Eva gasped as she felt a sharp pain from her left abdomen, she looked at Skyler’s face and saw she was smiling devilishly as she withdrew the bloody pen knife from Eva’s stomach.
“Do you think you and your bitch sister will be forgiven just like that?” Skyler asked, laughing evilly. Eva fell to the floor bleeding profusely from her wound, she felt herself growing weaker by the second and soon she’ll black out.
“Why….. Sky…. Why? I thought…… We…. were sisters” Eva managed to say mid gasps.
“Awwwnnnn, we were until you betrayed me with YOUR REAL SISTER!!” Skyler kicked her bleeding stomach making Eva wince in pain, Skyler kicked her repeatedly until she saw Eva was no longer moving.
“You would have been my favourite…. You WERE my favourite person in the world until you showed me you didn’t deserve any of my love or kindness!!” She spat on Eva’s dead body.
“One down three to go… that slut Petra is next” Skyler exited the kitchen, went upstairs to pack her remaining things, loaded it in her car and drove off to her hideout to plan her next moves because the police would be searching for Eva’s murderer.
