 You are correct. The one thing that Gideon cannot control is Eva.  She is very independent.  What Gideon doesn't yet realize is that the thing that Eva needs the most is his honesty.  If Gideon gives her that (which would entail Gideon opening himself up and making himself vulnerable) Eva will give him her all; heart and soul.  What do you think?

Yes, once Gideon does that, I think that his healing really can start.

The fact that Sylvia said that Gideon had a love/hate relationship with Eva was bothering me.Then I started to think, Gideon does truly love Eva, what he hates is the fact that sometimes (the limo in Bared) Eva takes control. Gideon needs control in his life. Gideon wants to be able to take care of Eva in everything and he needs to be in control. So the "hate" part comes in when Eva does not let himhave that control. She is a strong individual, who does things on her own, not always needing Gideon to take care of everything. I think this is part of the reason that Gideon needed to be married- he had the control.

We know that Cary was aware that Gideon was back in Eva's life.  However Cary has never been one to keep his mouth shut and to not notice things.  I just find it hard to believe that Cary would notice these things and NOT say anything.  He doesn't seem to be one to hold his tongue when it comes to Eva.  Especially since he knew that it was supposed to be kept quiet, I would think that he would have said something to let Eva know that she doesn't have to hide this secret from him.

I am actually wondering if Gideon and Cary have actually talked at this point. Gideon telling Cary he is back & that he is taking care of Eva!

A burner phone can be the same a your regular phone, for instance I have an iPhone 5 with sprint, I could kill my contract with them and go to Walmart and pay 699$ for the same phone only I'd have to,buy a chip to go in it, I could have the Same phone with a different number and no one question it by just looking at the phone..!

As far as the watch I think Cary knew like he said "I knew it was cross because no one can bang all night long like him" maybe not in those words..!! But I'm sure he put 2+2 together especially after Mommyca told him what Eva said about moving in with Gideon.! 

I think that Cary did know that she was back with Gideon. So the phone & the watch didn't set off alarms for him. Also I think that is why he didn't seem to be worried about where Eva was spending her time. He was teasing her at dinner that night with Trey & Megumi.

Hi Xfire,

I think that in order for Elizabeth Vidal to believe her son, she would need to admit that she made huge mistakes as a mother when Gideon was a boy.  I don't know how Eva could bring Elizabeth and Gideon together.  Every conversation that Eva has had with Elizabeth thus far has become increasingly hostile.  I know that Gideon listens to Eva's counsel, but I am not sure that Eva would in an emotionally fragile Gideon do deal with his mother.

 

Do you or any of the ladies have any ideas or theories about how Eva might help reconcile Gideon with his mother?  What does everyone think? 

I agree that Elizabeth needs to admit her mistakes, she needs to believe in Gideon and ask for forgiveness. I think that Eva will help because she will be there for Gideon, he listens to her. Plus I think there may be a situation where Elizabeth confronts Eva and Gideon comes in on it , this will have him laying down an ultimatum to his mom. Maybe this will open Elizabeth's eyes to the fact that she needs to listen and talk to Gideon if she wants to be part of his life. 

Also, I do not think that Gideon's "obsession" with brunettes has to do with Corinne, I think that this has to do with his mother.

I made this comment about his actions regarding taking over Vidal records because of his mother. I think the little boy in Gideon loves his mum, even though she abandoned him. His love is still strong enough to make sure that she doesn't suffer another financial crisis. He hasn't forgiven her, but a child's love is unconditional. I think he has a deep unconscious yearning, wanting to reconcile with his mother. This will help him love himself.

Yes, I agree. I think that Eva will help bring them together, making Gideon and his mom talk and fight through this. I believe also that Gideon still loves his mom. Eva says that Elizabeth looks at Gideon with love. The getting his mom to believe him will be one of the biggest things that needs to happen for Gideon to heal.

So we have an aproximation and not an exact timeline.  Do we know how many days after Monica saw Nathan outside of the Crossfire Building, he was killed? 

Monica saw Nathan on a Monday. Right after Eva returned from Las Vegas. It was not that Thursday, but the following Thursday that Nathan was killed. So a week and a half.

I'm surprised that everyone has forgiven Brett so easily when he embarrassed Eva with the Golden video.  At the very least, if he is really such a good guy, he would have given her a heads up so she wouldn't be blindsided in front of the press and everyone else.  Also I don't see someone who loves an ex and then says I'll win you back once I'm inside you.  I would expect him to say let me wine and dine you and win my way back into your heart.  The sex will follow, however, at this point, Eva is just a "###### with legs" to him.  Sylvia is full of surprises so she may surprise me about Brett but right now I'm not a fan.

I haven't forgiven Brett, the "Golden" video was wrong. Does he really know about this new video though. Brett's rough mannerisms are just the way he is, all Eva & him ever had was s**. From his point of view that is what she likes.But I think that Brett really doesn't know Eva, at least how Eva is now.

This is my prediction about the whole wedding and when everyone will know; and other events.

In the last chapter of EWU, while Gideon is helping Eva is getting ready  for the charity event: he makes a comment about showing off his wife, Eva says, no one knows I am your wife. Gideon's response; "I know it." He came up behind me and secured my zipper. "And soon -really soon- the whole world will know it."

 I do think that the news will hit, via Deanna about their wedding on the island. I am having second thoughts on whether or not the photos will be released. But I think by Saturday this will be the top society news. This needs to be made public to help the couple move forward in dealing with the video, Brett, Corinne & the families. I think on Friday Eva will take her mother to lunch & break the news to her; promising that she can still plan the second New York wedding. Eva will tell Cary on Friday. When Eva gets to San Diego she can tell her dad and also ask him to walk her down the aisle. Gideon will tell Ireland.

I think that Gideon lets Eva go to San Diego with Cary, he has to trust her, but there will be security. But , Gideon will fly out on Saturday to deal with the s*x tape. Eva will confront Brett by herself about her & Gideon being married, so no chance for Brett. She might have to use a little Krav Maga.

Gideon & Elizabeth will have to have a showdown. Gideon will not let Elizabeth bad mouth Eva or try to blame Eva for his problems. I think that he will pay a visit to mommy dearest & lay it on the line. Gideon will tell her she needs to accept certain truths or forget having him in her life at all.

Gideon will have to face the abuse and his feelings of guilt over Corinne in order to heal. Thankfully, he will have Eva by his side to face all of these things. It will make him stronger, since they can face the problems together.

Not quite sure about Megumi, worried that she has been sick. Did her boyfriend assault her, could her boyfriend be Christopher Jr.

The other thing is I am not to sure about Will, the new guy at the office.

The 10th floor is going to be for Eva. This will be for her foundation. Will she also take over running Gideon's foundation -Crossroads. Mark will come work there also.

Monica has to come clean with Eva about her past. I do not think that she was an escort or call girl. I think she is definitely ashamed of what she had to do to  make a living when Eva was young, before her first marriage. Has she lost the money that she got in that divorce? Did she have to bail out husband 2, or does she have a connection to the mob because of him? Is the marriage between her & Stanton loveless? Is this more of a business transaction: he needs a trophy wife, Monica needs the security of money & social position. Stanton will give Monica everything she needs & take care of Eva, if Monica is there on his arm & fulfilling all the social needs. 

When Monica was pregnant with Eva , I wonder if she still had contact with Victor. I think she must have; she agreed to name Eva after Victor's mom. With this being said, I think that Victor must have contact with Monica & Eva; I don't think he would have let her job be as an escort or the like.  But then I wonder if maybe she was a show girl in Vegas. I figure Monica is only 42 years old.

 

Ok so I feel that I have rambled enough! Sorry! We just need books 4 & 5!!

^^^ THIS

 

And not once -- once -- has Brett fought dirty.

 

Unlike Crazy Corrine and Devious Deanna.

 

Mad Magdalene did come out swinging at first, but when she figured out Gideon loved Eva and vice versa, she bowed out gracefully and has been on Team Gideon Deserves To Be Happy ever since.

 

Bummed Brett, I think, will turn into the same class act that Maggie did -- he'll know when to throw in the towel.

I agree! If given all the facts and a chance Brett may just surprise us . I think he could  help with the tape. Once he realizes that Eva & Gideon are married and do love each other, he will get the message. 

Sorry to interrupt the discussion of Anne and Llizzy.  Last night I reread the section where Eva was at Parker's and met up with Graves again and they sparred.  The line that is bothering me is about the bracelet on the Russian.  Why do you think, if indeed the case is supposedly cold, Graves tells Eva to be concerned about that bracelet?  It just is nagging at me.  What am I missing?

 

And congrats to Henry.  MAN OF STEEL  breaking records to great for him.  God, he is so hot.

I think it is Graves way of reminding Eva that someone knows what happened to Nathan. Because, I think Graves believes Gideon killed Nathan, but just can bot prove it, and that the bracelet was a plant by somebody to take the focus away from Gideon. If this is the case, then there is somebody who knows what happened.

I just wanted to make a comment about releasing the wedding photos.  Even if Deanne get a copy that isn't going to take anything away from the beauty of the event for Eva and Gideon.  They are just pictures, the love is the personal part.  I'm sure Eva will understand that Gideon needed to get as much information from Deanna as possible to protect his wife.

Yes.

I have started a new topic which includes a timeline for each of the books. Hope you enjoy!

I think Gideon is going to have to cough up a couple of those beach wedding photos, which would be exceptionally financially valuable to Deanna if she got them as an exclusive.

 

The society wedding pictures wouldn't be of much monetary value if everyone knew it was a "second" wedding for the families, not the real wedding.

 

He's got to keep a financial leash on Deanna. His giving her the photos is the exact equivalent to him having paid off Ian to keep his mouth shut. I'll bet he makes Deanna sign a non-disclosure agreement about her knowledge of the Brett-Eva sex tape.

 

And he'll need to give Deanna the photos almost immediately now, because of the sex tape's existence. Or else Deanna could turn around and do a freelance story on the tape, making some serious money off of that instead.

 

I think what he was talking to Deanna about when Deanna slithered into Eva's seat at that social event in the last chapter of Entwined was telling Deanna he and Eva had secretly married over the weekend and that he would give Deanna a couple of pictures of the wedding. The existence of the sex tape changed considerably the fact Gideon would want the world to know Eva is his wife now, not wait the months and months Monica would spend planning a society wedding.

I agree!

I do think though that they will still have the second wedding. This will make Monica happy. I think part of the intrigue and romance of the wedding on the beach is it helped to solidify them, their relationship and dependence on each other. They, especially Gideon need to be married to each other in order to face what ever is coming forward. This is also making Eva stronger. Since they have married, they seem to trust each other more, especially with outsiders.

 

I think that Deanna is still getting a good payday and maybe this is the way that Gideon will be able to control what she is doing, so that she will not be a pain in their sides. It is the payoff she needs.

 

I know I am rambling. But I do agree that unfortunately these photos will have to come out now. This will help the couple deal with: Brett, Corinne & her husband, even Elizabeth & Christopher Jr.

this is something I have been thinking about, sorry if its been discussed before.

In light of Eva finding out that she has been bugged and tracked by Clancy what happened the night she went to the apartment after her talk with Graves.

Gideon admitted that he moved into the apartment next door so that he could get to her quickly if need be. Therefore he would be spending more time there than at the penthouse. Clancy told her he turned off the receiver after confirmation that Nathan was dead.

So my question is this, how did Gideon know to go to the penthouse that night when he found her sitting on the floor because she didn't have a key? How long do you think she would have waited? Did Clancy call him and tell him she was there?

Gideon had to keep up the pretense of spending time at the penthouse. So I think after working out he went to the penthouse as normal and just happened to find Eva there. I think he would usually leave the penthouse later and go to the apartment next to Eva.

Where did it say that? I knew Nathan was two years older. That's what Eva told Gideon when she was telling him about her abuse. I don't remember the 4 year old bit though. Be good if you could tell me page no. Thank you

I think I misspoke on how old Eva was. I found the information about her mom marrying Barker and Nathan being 2 years older. It said her mom was able to land herself a millionaire, even with a kid in tow. I guess I was just thinking she was younger. I know the abuse started when Eva was 10. Sorry.

GiGi

 

You are probably right.  That is probably what Gideon whispered in Deanna's ear at the dinner...contact so and so in the Caribbean and you will find the marriage license & picture.  You have 48 hours.

I agree! I do think that was why Gideon was talking to Deanna at that event. These photos will also hit the news just as Eva arrives in San Diego. Brett will hopefully get the message. i just hope that Gideon lets Eva know , so that she can let her dad know. I wouldn't want him to have to read this. Eva should be the one to let him know.

Hi Mam2

What I want to know is, how long was Monica married to Barker for. She divorced him when Eva's abuse came out at 14. They were married for at least four years. What did Monica do before that? How did she cope financially?

She has something bad she is hiding from Eva.

It was said that Monica married Barker when Eva was 4 years old and Nathan was two years older.

Thank you! Yes, it is roughly 8 1/2 weeks, so we are in August. I will do this for the next two books. My friends  laugh at me for doing this, but they are glad I do because when they have questions I usually have the answers.

Sorry the cat was trying to help, didn't mean to double post.

Sorry the cat was trying to help, didn't mean to double post.

As I was reading through the posts just thought that Eva didn't have anyone to take a picture of her wedding.  Even though they are going to have a big blow out, don't you think she would want a picture to remember the private event?

I hope they have a picture. I have a feeling that Gideon might have one on his phone. We might see it in the paper soon!
