So Ivan was not a playboy at all. It was visibly clear. That means Neil Holland lied about Ivan to Alysha. Neil Holland said so many things to Alysha to push her away from Ivan and Suegra family. Was Neil actually being a true Ally?
Ivan drained the last of his drink, the realization settling over him like a sudden flash of light. That wild, reckless boy had more depth than he’d given him credit for. Bjorn’s erratic behavior, his constant talk of bringing his “woman” to Suegra state—it all made sense now. Bjorn wasn’t just infatuated; he was driven by a primal fear. A fear that someone might take her before he could claim her properly, before he could bring her under the Suegra name and secure her place in his life.Ivan finished his drink and stood up, finally understanding the real reason for Bjorn’s obsession. Bjorn wasn’t just chasing after some random girl. He was driven by something more serious—fear. Bjorn wanted to make sure no one else would go near the 13-year-old girl he’d set his eyes on, worried that if anyone else touches her, the family would never accept her as his future wife.Ivan realized Bjorn’s desperation wasn’t about being impulsive; it was about protecting someone he cared about. Bjorn wa
In Jarl Palace.Ivan flicked his cigarette to the ground, crushing it beneath his shoe with a deliberate motion. His sharp blue eyes bore into Karol as he made the offer that hung heavy in the air. "2 billion dollars," Ivan said, his voice cold and matter-of-fact. "For your two daughters."Karol’s breath hitched, the staggering amount of money leaving him momentarily speechless. His gaze darted to Ingrid, who was equally stunned, her jaw dropping as the reality of the situation crashed down on them both. 2 billion dollars… such an unimaginable sum. It was enough to change their lives, to solve every problem they’d ever had. But at what cost?Karol, still reeling, tried to muster a response. "But we—" he began, his voice trembling.Before he could finish, Bjorn’s voice cut through the room like a whip. "You dare to argue with us?" he roared, his young face twisted with anger. Karol flinched at the outburst, his heart pounding in his chest. Bjorn, not even 18 years old, radiated a dange
Bjorn’s face turned red with fury, his hands shaking violently as he glared at Karol. "How dare you!!!" Bjorn roared, his voice breaking with rage. His eyes flicked around the room, his mind clouded with vengeance. "I will crush your entire palace!"Without warning, Bjorn lunged forward, his hands grabbing whatever he could reach. The sound of glass shattering filled the air as he hurled a vase across the room, its pieces scattering like jagged stars. His rampage was just beginning. He stormed toward a nearby cabinet, his powerful hands gripping the wood before he tore it apart with a loud, splintering crack. Karol and Ingrid stood frozen, watching in helpless horror as their palace descended into chaos. Each item Bjorn destroyed felt like a piece of their world being ripped away. The chandelier above them swayed violently as Bjorn slammed into a table, sending it crashing to the floor. The sound of splintering wood and breaking glass mixed with the heavy, frantic breathing of the en
Meanwhile, In Holland mansion.Neil’s suddenly blasted inside of Alysha and Andrine’s room.His eyes narrowed as he fixed his gaze on Andrine. "You talk way too much, Andrine!" he snapped, his voice sharp and full of authority.Andrine remained silent, her expression unbothered. She didn’t care about Neil’s anger, nor was she afraid. Her defiance only deepened the tension between them.Alysha, sensing the rising conflict, glanced nervously at Neil. She could feel the weight of his presence, and her heart raced in anticipation of what he would say next."You have no idea what your sister has done with her life!" Neil continued, his voice biting and cold. "She can never go to Armin! He will never accept her."Andrine, undeterred, shot back, "How do you know? She must talk to him."Neil’s anger flared, and he roared, "You seriously talk too much! I will not let you stay with Alysha anymore. You are poisoning her brain!" His frustration boiled over as he glared at Andrine, his patience ru
Neil's eyes narrowed, his patience wearing thin as Andrine stood her ground with defiant sharpness. "I will send you to the USA alone, Andrine," he said coldly, his words laced with frustration.Andrine, however, was not fazed. Her eyes met his with equal intensity, refusing to back down. "I’m a kid," she responded, her voice steady. "How can I go alone there? I need a guardian."Neil blinked, momentarily taken aback by her quick thinking. The girl was far too clever for her age, and it was clear she wasn’t going to let him have his way without a fight."I have people there for you," Neil said, his tone sharpening as he tried to regain control of the conversation.Andrine's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "Your servants will raise me? Do you think I’m an orphan?" Her words stung like a whip, and Alysha, watching from beside her, felt her heart skip a beat. The tension in the room thickened, and she could see the storm brewing in Neil’s eyes.Neil clenched his jaw, the muscles in h
Alysha remained where she stood, her entire body numb as she stared at the door, horror widening her eyes. Her legs gave way, and she collapsed onto the bed, her mind spinning, her heart heavy with disbelief. The world she had known was crumbling before her eyes.Andrine quickly moved to her side, cupping Alysha’s face in her small hands. "Someone sent another man into your room, right?" she asked softly, her words filled with certainty.Alysha’s eyes widened as she looked at her sister. "What?" she breathed, taken aback."I heard them talking," Andrine continued, her voice calm but filled with quiet determination. "I think Seraphina did it."Tears began to roll down Alysha’s cheeks as the weight of Andrine’s words settled in. The truth was too painful, too shocking to bear. "What?" Alysha choked, her voice barely audible.Andrine’s eyes remained steady as she held her sister close. "Don’t listen to Neil Holland, Alysha," she said firmly, her words filled with fierce resolve. "Go to y
Bjorn’s hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles white as he floored the gas pedal of his Bugatti. The engine roared, the sleek car tearing down the road like a bullet, its speed pushing the limits of control. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, filled with a mixture of fury and excitement. Every ounce of his being was focused on one destination—Holland Mansion.Beside him, Ivan sat rigid, his normally composed demeanor shaken. His wide eyes flicked between Bjorn’s intense expression and the blur of the world rushing past them. The speed at which they were driving was reckless, even for someone like Bjorn, who lived for chaos."Slow down, Bjorn!" Ivan finally managed to shout over the roaring engine, his voice laced with shock. His fingers dug into the seat, bracing against the wild turns and the sheer velocity of the car. The tension between them was palpable, a shared understanding that whatever awaited them at Holland Mansion was no small matter.But Bjorn ignored
Neil wasted no time. With a swift motion, he grabbed Alysha and Andrine, his hands gripping their arms tightly. "We’re leaving. Now!" he barked, his voice urgent, filled with the panic of the escalating situation.Andrine struggled, her eyes wide with defiance as Neil pulled her along. "Where are you taking us?" she shouted, trying to wriggle free from his grasp. "We don’t want to go with you! Look! They came for us!"Her voice echoed through the narrow corridor as Neil hurried them toward the back exit, his pace quick and determined. The sound of Bjorn’s car ramming the gate reverberated through the mansion, growing louder with each hit. It was clear that the front entrance was no longer safe, and Neil had no intention of letting Bjorn or Ivan reach them."Quiet, Andrine!" Neil growled, pulling her closer. "You don’t know what you’re talking about!"Alysha, too overwhelmed by the chaos, stumbled as Neil dragged her along. Her mind raced with conflicting emotions—part of her wanting t
