ENTANGLED HEARTS: UNCOVERING THE SHADOW OF THE PAST

Chapter one INTERTWINED. "How long will it take me to finally fulfill my dream of meeting you." Samantha Williams spoke to the picture of a handsome young looking man in her hands. She always had feelings for Andrew Walker, the richest man In the Billionaire's web. Because of this, she made her talent known by attending several auditions and was finally picked by an organization, but since then she didn't have a single debut. It pissed her off, as she never had the chance to see Andrew Walker physically, either on social media, or far off. She wanted him to know her more as she dreaded the path of becoming a celebrity through her talent of singing. After many months, heaven came to her side when she was among those that were picked by her organization to entertain in the Billionaires meeting. Her voice was catchy, mesmerizing and sweet that Andrew Walker noticed her. Suddenly while others were leaving the stage, she ran towards where Andrew Walker sat and was held back by two hefty men. "Miss, you can't go any further, please go back, " one of them said. "Please I just need to give him this.'' Samantha said eagerly as she showed a card that looked like an invite. "That's okay, Get it from her" Andrew said from behind. "By the way, you sang so well Miss, I'm your fan " Andrew continued as he smiled widely. "Really? Thank you so much for the compliment " Samantha smiled almost tearing up, her crush finally recognised her. "Will I ever recover from this?, " Samantha said to herself as she happily left. "Give the card to me" Andrew requested from his man. "Oh! This is her invitation I guess," "You're my inspiration, thanks for making me achieve my dream. This is my first debut. I'll appreciate it if you feel the same way with me by honoring the invitation" Andrew read loudly and smirked. "So funny" he said as he slipped the invitation card into his pocket as he left. One dreadful night, "Oohh!" Andrew slammed his forehead as he reminisced the sweet moments he had with his late wife and how she had died, that was a few nights after the Billionaires meeting. He became drenched in sadness as he kept sipping his wine, he became so drunk and furious at the same time, he yelled and wailed in his room then he heard a knock, it was his personal assistant Ella who returned late from delivering her final work for that day and had come to give her boss feedback. She found him in that state and she got worried that her secret crush was having a hard time letting go of his past with his wife. "What's wrong sir? This is too much" Ella said as she felt concerned, packing the empty bottles of wine that were with him. "So sorry, I can understand, today is your late wife's anniversary, please sober up...huh?" She pleaded. "Can you drive me to my vacation house on the island?" Andrew asked. "Sure! Let's go" Ella said, picking up his car key as she supported him to the garage where they zoomed off to the vacation house. "Please calm down... huh?" Ella said as she tried to stop Andrew who was in his drunken state from caressing her from behind as soon as they got into the vacation house. Andrew didn't listen, he went ahead kissing Ella without permission as devouring her. He wanted to have his way, he couldn't hold himself and just wanted to lay with a woman. Ella on the other hand wanted him, but at the same time was afraid because she wanted to be sure it wasn't a one night stand, she wanted him all for herself, and she soon gave in. "I hope after this, you won't sideline me.... I mean I want more" Ella' said "What do you want... Tell me, I'll do it for you." Andrew in his drunken and horny state asked, with such a mood, he was ready to even give Ella his life. "I just want you for myself, I want us to be beyond this" Ella said as she winked, unbuttoning his sagged shirt, running her fingers through his wide chest and moaning. Andrew pulled Ella tightly to himself and sucked her lips while moaning aggressively, he didn't have to wait to pull down her skirt, but just managed to make his way through her. He kissed, caressed, sucked her almost simultaneously, while a deep moaning sound escaped through Ella's mouth. After a few minutes of fun, they both slept off, it wasn't up to 15 minutes when Ella's phone rang. She then jerked up, to pick up her phone from her bag, it was her mother in law. She became tensed, and didn't want Andrew to know that she had a fiancée she would soon get married to, she hurriedly went outside the house to receive her call and probably end it for good with her son and the poor family since she caught a bigger fish and had always dreamed to get married to a rich man. "Hello, my dear, how are you doing?" Susan, her mother in-law asked "Mom, I'm fine, it's good you called, I've been wanting to meet you and discuss something with you" Ella returned. "Oh really, Our minds are connected, I'm currently in fiesta island with my friend, she made a very sweet homemade food and I thought of bringing some over to your place tonight" Susan smiled over the phone "What do you mean? This same fiesta island?" Ella shocked, as she asked "Yes…, wait... Are you currently there, what is it you're doing there?" Susan demanded to know "I'm currently by the road side....." The call stopped "Hello Hello .. Mama " Ella said as she noticed a break from the call, she became worried as she tried reaching her to no avail "What kind of coincidence is this? How could she be here on this same island, at the same time…” she whispered, as she went back into the house, only to find out that Andrew was no longer in bed and nowhere around the house. She shrugged, still tensed as she vigorously called out his name numerous times in fear.
