Young Master Returns for his Abandoned Wife
“You abandoned me in the middle of the night! You left me alone for five years!” Maya hissed as he lifted his hand to touch where her slap had left its mark. “I left to protect you! I left because I love you!” Nathaniel protested in a futile attempt to defend himself. —————————————————— Five years ago, Nathaniel De La Rue found love and a new life in Arlington City, but his past soon caught up with him and forced him to leave behind everything he had built, including his beloved Maya Miller. Now, Nathaniel is done running. He must confront his past to protect those that matter the most to him. After fighting for his right to live and accepting his rightful place in the De La Rue family, he finally returns to Arlington City. However, upon his return, Nathaniel finds that his world is not the same as he left it. Maya, the woman he loves, is engaged to another man. His best friend now works for the man who stole Maya from him. Furthermore, the woman who had cared for Nathaniel like a mother is being abused by her husband. It’s as if he has to start from scratch. But things have changed. This time he has the De La Rue Family by his side.
What Are You Hiding?
"It's fine, Maya, just drop it," Oliver groaned.
It was clear from his tone that he was disappointed that Jay had lied to him.
Jay never liked him and they had never been friends. He was aware that his friends had looked down on and occasionally bullied Jay so this was merely payback for all those years, he was willing to let all of this go on account of that.
"Fine," Maya grumbled as she looked at Nate and glared at him.
After her call with Oliver, she was going to have a word with him.
"I'll visit your grandfather some other time at home," he told Maya. "How are you? Were you hurt?"
"Why would I be hurt?" Maya asked, shocked by his question.
Nothing had happened to her in recent days to indicate that she could have been harmed so Oliver's question came as a shock to her.
"Oliver?" Maya asked when she noticed that Oliver had not said anything.
