Margot Rivers

Margot is the daughter of a loving yet strict family, who are very rich. Her parents and her moved to England a year prior. At Bannerman, Margot initially befriended Amber, a popular girl in her class who was actually only testing to see if Margot was cool. When Amber realised Margot was not, she had her best friend Olivia find something to humiliate Margot. Olivia did so, not wanting to lose her friendship with Amber, who had bought all of her nicest belongings to mask Olivia’s lack of enormous wealth. She gave Amber her diary, and Amber read Margot’s diary in front of everyone at the cafeteria, Margot burst into tears, giving her the nickname ‘Cry me a rivers’ as her surname was Rivers and she was sensitive and often cried. Margot was traumatised by this and didn’t return to eat her lunch in the cafeteria for almost a year. A boy named Logan, who was clearly infatuated with Margot, encouraged her to join the Drama club, which he was also a integral part of. She unwittingly wrote down notes for the director, Christopher, while at her first meeting, earning her praise. Jealous Amber humiliated Margot again after seeing this. Logan eventually asked her out again after being rejected by Margot prior to the Drama Club meeting (out of fear that it was just another plot to embarrass her), however said yes the next time after seeing his sweet, quirky personality. She eventually stood up to Amber, and returned to the cafeteria to find everyone had forgotten about the diary incident but regardless called her ‘Cry me a rivers.’ She sat at the popular table with Logan and Christopher, and Amber said she hadn’t earned her place there. Margot shouted back at Amber saying she hadn’t earned her place there either, and was idiotic to think she had. Margot then became more popular. Later, it was revealed that Logan was the murderer who killed Ronny and Mika. Margot ran out of Logan’s sight and he chased after her. Margot dropped her boot in the reservoir and pushed a rock in there to make a splash. Margot then screamed and hid underneath the bridge with Olivia and Kitty. Logan assumed she had drowned and left. Margot was upset as Logan had not even tried to save her. At the play Logan was starring in, a video Kitty and Olivia recorded of Margot and Logan’s conversation was played, and Logan ran and escaped. He arranged to meet up with Margot to lie to say it wasn’t what she thought but the police followed Margot. (Margot knew the police were following her). Logan was arrested and sent to jail.
