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.
Luck and Mentors
Maya was nervous, she didn't know what Nathaniel would say or do next.
She knew that Nathaniel had invited Sarah over because she was one of his promising employees who was repeatedly being overlooked for proper promotion.
Of all his department heads she was one that wasn't in the pocket of the Syndicate.
"Those bastards," Nathaniel hissed.
"Nate, I know Sarah and I don't have the best history," Maya knew this was insane that she was pleading her former bully's case, but she firmly believed Sarah was different now. "But, those people are disgusting."
"That's what I'm working on, Amor," Nathaniel said as he leaned down and planted a kiss on her forehead.
He then gestured for everyone to join him around the table, leading Maya to sit on his left as he pulled out the chair for her.
Nathaniel had always been the proper gentleman, knowing who he truly was now made everything fall into place.
