Haunted By The Past

"Can someone please explain what is happening on the show?"
"I am so confused. Did she call the boss on mask Bryan, cause I heard his real name is Oliver?"
"Have they seen each other?"
"That's not the problem now, the problem is Charlotte is in danger, and the show went off after the announcement".
"Did the boss hurt someone and trying to use her to avenge?"
"I am dumb here; let this be over soon cause they both have an explanation to doing ."
"Please, Lord, protect them all; this has never happened before".
"Charlotte, be safe".
Charlotte
I opened my eyes; I tried standing up when I noticed I couldn't as I felt pains all over them. I remembered seeing the boss masked removed, and it was Bryan; he lied to me again; I ran to one of the sitting room when someone covered my nose, "Does it mean that?"
"Oh, have been kidnapped".
I screamed for help, but no one came in; I am in trouble, " Please, I am sorry if I offend you; let me go, please," I started calculating if I offended anyone, but I don't think so.
Bryan, please save me; I forgive you, please.
After screaming out my life, I felt weak, tired, and hungry when a guy walked in with a mask, " Shouting on your voice won't bring help to you because the walls are soundproof."
"Please, who are you? Why am I kidnapped in a show? Please make me understand."
" Well, you just happened to be the right tool to get back at someone."
"Tool !!"
"What's wrong with him, calling me tool," I tried to hit him when he gripped me and other hefty guys came in and seized me, then I received a slap from him, and I fell and blood gushing out from my lips, he hits me so bad that I started crying, " Tie her up."
I was tied up, and he told me, " You think you are tough, wake up girl, the show is over, I don't wish to kill you, but I just have to kill you right in his presence, and he won't be able to do anything and call for help, I will make sure he goes through pains all his life and wishing for death to take him, your Oliver or Bryan will go through hell in my hands."
"Please don't hurt him; whatever might have happened, just let it go. Please, I don't know what Bryan did, but I don't want my love to be hurt in any way." I pleaded
He grabbed me and pointed his knife on my neck, and I don't know how he did it, connecting us live for Bryan to see us, and I saw how worried Bryan was.
" Loverboy, you can't save your love now."
" Please don't hurt her; let her go; you want me and not her," Bryan said.
" You don't tell me what to do. Do you remember Jessica, the only girl I truly love with my heart and everything, left me for you cause you are handsome? What did you do to her? You sex her and pay her off, and then what? You never wanted her in your life that night I was there when you killed her, her blood filled your hands, and you ran off; the question is, Why her?"
"I don't understand anything these two are saying, don't tell me I am dating a killer!" I got scared.
"Can someone wake me up if this is a bad dream, please," tears gathered in my eyes again as he brought the knife closer?
Oliver
I can't even find any guard or security; what the hell is happening? I came back to the sitting room; the housemates have been taken too.
Where can I find her, this place is so big, have searched the different room but I can't find Charlotte.
I don't know who that bastard is, but he should not lay a finger on my love.
It seems they have been planning this attack cause no one can exit here and no one can come in; the password has been hacked.
A live broadcast appeared on the TV in the house; oh no, Charlotte, I got scared seeing him holding a knife close to her throat.
" Loverboy, you can't save your love now."
"Please don't hurt her, let her go, you want not her and me", I said
I was so helpless; I don't know what to do, " Why is he hurting her? What have I done to him?
Then he replied saying, " You don't tell me what to do. Do you remember Jessica, the only girl I truly love with my heart and everything, left me for you cause you are handsome? What did you do to her? You see her and pay her off and then what, you never wanted her in your life, that night I was there when you killed her, her blood filled your hands, and you ran off, the question is, Why her?"
I remembered Jessica; why is my past haunting me now I have found true love.
"Please, I did not kill her, you got it all wrong, please listen to my own story please, Jessica truly liked me, but I don't believe in love back then; I just sex her and pay her off, I throw her out severally from my house and company cause she kept coming."
I continued telling what happened, "Then on a particular night I got so mad at my dad, that night confirmed he had been a cheat, and it increased my anger and ruined the chances of me loving someone cause he hurt mom, I feel ladies do that cause of money that's why I just sex, no love attached, I left the house that night angrily without using my car, before then I called Jessica severally cause I wanted her that night in a hotel, then I sighted a lady in a pool of her blood, I ran to her only to discover it was Jessica, I held her cause I felt something for her, I wondered what happened, it looked like she was robbed and stabbed, fear gripped me when she was no longer talking, what will I tell the police seeing me alone with a lifeless being, I was so stupid that I ran off without helping her please, have left with that guilt for a long time, I never killed her, I was too scared to help, I never thought twice." I pleaded with him.
" You animal, You monster, you dare lie to my face, you think I will buy the story."
"Please am telling the truth, please, I never killed her; I don't have the guts to kill" I tried defending myself
"Because you just lied, I will hurt your love gradually."
I watched helplessly as he used the knife to mark her close to her neck, and blood rushed out.
"No, please I screamed and knelt with tears in my eyes."
" 24 hours find us, or I cut her piece by piece."
No no
TBC...
Is Oliver telling the truth?
