: I don't understand, what do you mean I signed a marriage contract. I came here for a job not to be married to someone I haven't even met. Miss Trisha, the secretary said calmly just see this as a once in a lifetime opportunity. You are officially married to Mr Alexander O'Brien and according to the contract you signed if you refuse to acknowledge it or try to bridge the contract you would have to pay for damages and compensation. I knew this job was too good to be true, I thought to myself what have I gotten myself into? Dylan, you did what? How can you find me a wife under such deceit and what type of woman would want to marry someone she hasn't met before? I knew you were up to no good when you volunteered to personally handle the interview for my personal assistant but this is too much. Alex I did all of it because you were finding it difficult to get yourself a girlfriend and I want to see you happy, you look so lonely. Just meet her and if you don't like her was can destroy the contract. She is so simple, she looks so innocent but I know behind that innocent face is a gold digger and I know she came here with a motive and I'm going to find that out!

Entangled( you can run from the past but can you escape it?) Chapter 1 The Beginning

TRISH'S POV

Trish I heard Elle called out but I couldn't respond, my whole feelings felt like I've been pressed down by a force I can't fathom, I guess this is what sleep paralysis feels like. I'm suffocating and I can't move.

ME

Trish, I heard her shout but I can't even answer. Is this how I'm going to die? After everything I've been through, I can't die like this. Don't I deserve to be happy, don't I deserve to be loved?

I can feel my hands moving as the force holding me back subsides. Elle, I'm right here I whispered not sure it was loud enough for her to hear. Thank God she heard me, I heard the doorknob move, and I can move my body. Trish why are you sweating like this, she asked in a voice filled with concern, I am so lucky to have her in my life, she is the best thing that has happened to me since I moved here from LA.

Elle, I thought I was never going to see you again, I was so scared and afraid of dying, leaving you here all by yourself. You're exaggerating Trish, tell me what happened. I've been calling you for over 5 minutes and you didn't answer, I guess you were in a deep slumber. Elle, I just experienced what sleep paralysis felt like, I heard you but I was unable to answer it was like I was being suffocated by the shadows. Don't laugh babe, it isn't funny, I really thought I was going to die. Stop exaggerating, you watch too many scary movies and you sleep hungry so you are bound to have a nightmare. So, let's forget about your sweet nightmare, I come bearing good news. I really hope it is not about another blind date you set me up with unless I'm going to murder you in your sleep. Not that Tee, but you received mail from care.com and I'm sorry I couldn't help myself. I peeked into it.

Elle, it is a bad habit to go through someone else's stuff but I just pray it is good news because this day couldn't get any worse. I'm so sure you would like the news,just open it first and check before jumping into conclusion Tee. I got an interview scheduled for Monday babe, can you imagine? Of course you can, you have seen it before me. I'm so happy at least this day isn't all that bad, and the interview is for the post of the secretary of the chairman, and the salary range is huge. Tee, I'm so happy for you, you should always believe me and always be optimistic, don't doubt too much. Okay, don't nag me too much.I would start being optimistic. I just hope I get the job, the salary would improve our lives greatly.

I've heard that the chairman is very young and handsome, Elle, I need the job and I don't care if he is old and sickly, my only wish is that he isn't a pervert. Miss goody two- shoes, you need to live a little, have fun, explore, make happy memories now that you are in your youth, because once it's passed you would regret it. I know and as much as I am tempted, we have bills that won't pay for themselves and we also need to relocate and also need to take care of ourselves and it won't happen by itself. So let's just pray I get this job, our lives would change drastically. I know that you would get it and I can't wait for you to spoil me when you get your first pay.

I don't even know what I'm going to wear for the Interview, I don't have anything presentable. Tee, don't worry about it, we will go thrift shopping later today so we can find something for you. For now let's have breakfast and rest. So I made toast and coffee. I pray you get the job because I am tired of it already, I can't wait for Monday and I really hope you get it, babe. So we have gotten to the mall and everything we are seeing is over $70 and it is more than our living allowance for a month. Elle, I think we should just leave, I would manage my black skirt and white shirt, we can't afford anything in this store, because even if I get the job, I won't get paid until after a month and we can't feed on grass until then.

Trish, you think too much, I have some savings and don't forget I'm also working and I will get paid this week. We can manage my salary until you get paid. What if I don't get the job? What if we just get these clothes for no reason at all? I'm scared, Elle, I won't lie. You are too pessimistic, I know you would get the job, you have passed the first stage and I know you would also pass this stage. Just have faith, babe, don't doubt yourself too much. You are very much qualified like the other applicants from ivy colleges. Okay, Elle, I've heard what you have said but I have a condition, I would only get new clothes when I pass the interview, until then I'm not. Okay deal, it is so hard to argue with you.

I'm so famished, I wonder how those girls who window shop do it? Because I am so tired, like I want to sleep but I'm also hungry. What should we have for dinner? Let's order pizza babe, it's been so long and before you argue with me about saving money don't worry I have a coupon. Elle, you know me so well, okay I'm calling the pizza place right now.

Hello, we want to get a pizza, a family size, make a cheese pepperoni pizza with lots of cheese, yeah thanks, in how many minutes can we get it, okay thank you.

The pizza will be arriving very soon, I can't wait, I'm so hungry. Let me get to the door, it might be the delivery guy. Okay thank you and enjoy your food. I'm really excited babe, I can't wait for tomorrow where you will be the new secretary to the chairman of care.com. Elle you are too dramatic babe, but I also hope it happens as we wish, I believe it would Tee.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."
