Claiming back his missing wife

He was not your husband

As the private jet soared through the clouds toward Europe, Alysha sat wrapped in confusion and fear, her mind a whirlwind of unanswered questions. The silence between her and Neil Holland felt heavy, each moment stretching into eternity until she could no longer bear it.

"Mr. Holland, can you please tell me what is going on?" Alysha's voice was a mix of desperation and confusion. "Why I had to leave my husband?"

Neil, who had been staring out the window, turned to face her. He took a deep breath, the weight of his next words seeming to press down on him. "Alysha," he began, his voice steady yet filled with a seriousness that immediately made Alysha's heart race. "You have been deceived badly."

Alysha's hand flew to her chest, her breath catching. The room seemed to spin as she braced herself for what was to come. "Tell me what is going on?" she demanded, her voice trembling.

Neil paused, his gaze locking with hers, ensuring she was prepared for the truth. "The man who was with you last night," he continued, his voice low, "is not your husband."

The impact of his words hit Alysha like a tidal wave, leaving her feeling as if she had been struck by thousands of thunderbolts. Her body froze, shock rendering her speechless for a moment before she managed to whisper, "What do you mean? How can someone else come into my room?"

Neil's expression hardened, a mix of anger and determination flickering in his eyes. "I have to investigate this matter on my own. But until I solve this issue, you have to stay hidden at my mansion," he explained, leaving no room for negotiation.

Alysha realized the gravity of the situation. Neil Holland, her protector, was now her only ally in a game of deception she never agreed to play. With her world turned upside down, she understood she had no choice but to follow Neil's commands, her voice and her choice momentarily stripped away by circumstances beyond her control.

Neil, feeling the weight of Alysha's despair, wrapped his arms around her, offering a solace that words alone could not provide. The tears in Alysha's eyes spoke volumes, mirroring the tumultuous storm of emotions Neil felt inside. Sitting beside her, he pulled her closer, a gesture meant to comfort yet acknowledging the gravity of their predicament.

"Princess Alysha," Neil began, his voice heavy with sadness, "your life is going to change a lot from this point." His words, though meant to prepare her, felt like an understatement in the face of such a drastic upheaval.

Alysha, her voice steadied by a deep breath yet still tinged with despair, responded, "I know. I am not a virgin anymore, and I slept with another man. The Suegra family will not accept me." Her acceptance of the situation was heartbreaking, a stark acknowledgment of the consequences that lay ahead.

Neil tightened his hold on her, his heart clanging with a mixture of anger at the situation and sorrow for Alysha's pain. "I am so sorry, Alysha. I should have been there to protect you," he said, his words a low murmur of regret.

Alysha, looking up at Neil, found a sliver of courage in her despair. "But you were there the whole night to protect me, Neil. You couldn't come inside the room with me. How could you control it if someone else came inside my room instead of my new unknown, mysterious husband?" Her words were not accusations but rather a sad acknowledgment of the reality they both faced.

Seeing the helpless state of Princess Alysha Jarl, a woman of both beauty and stature, reduced to a situation so dire, Neil's heart ached.

He realized the road ahead would be challenging, but at that moment, his resolve to protect and support Alysha only grew stronger. Neil knew that whatever the future held, he would stand by Alysha, fighting for her honor and seeking justice, no matter the cost.
