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.
Where Is Maya?
"Katerina," Nathaniel called out as his path crossed with the lawyer.
"Yes, Mr. De La Rue," she asked formally.
"Have you seen Miss Miller? If I am not mistaken you are friends," he said, pretending as if he didn't introduce the pair to one another.
"No sir, last I saw she was safely in your arms, dancing," she said as she raised an eyebrow at him.
Nathaniel shook his head, he didn't want people to worry.
Maya was probably somewhere, mingling with others.
"Find her," Nathaniel told his bodyguard. "Her guards should be with her, she shouldn't be difficult to spot."
Nathaniel wanted to say that she should have been in their sights the entire time, especially with the looming threat, but he didn't want to risk others hearing of it.
"Jay," Nathaniel said as he waved his friend over.
Jay quickly jogged up to him knowing that it would be bad to keep him waiting when he already looked so unsettled.
