Ivan sat back in his leather chair, his fingers resting on the edge of the Jarl Project file he’d been about to open when Samuel, the Suegra security chief, entered the office with a look of urgency. Henry and his men exchanged uneasy glances, sensing the weight of whatever news Samuel was bringing.

Samuel’s face was tense as he addressed Ivan, his words deliberate. "Mr. Anderson, your cousin Gabriel Rodriguez has asked for your help."

Ivan's eyes narrowed with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. “What’s the matter? Is everything alright?”

Samuel shook his head gravely. “No, sir. It’s your nephew, Bjorn. He’s done… substantial damage, wreaking havoc across Suegra State. Especially in the nearby village.”

A shadow crossed Ivan’s face, and he rubbed his fingers along his lips, thinking. Of course. No one could control Bjorn, the family’s wild card, their “young prince” with a storm raging inside him. Ivan had warned Gabriel many times that bringing Bjorn into Suegra State would be a d

    Bjorn shook his head, frustration twisting his face. “No one believes me, Uncle,” he said, his voice breaking with anger. “Maximilian was my best friend—I knew his secrets. He told me himself that he wasn’t focusing on his studies because he never planned on joining his father’s business, or taking over the Holland empire. He told me he had no interest in any of it. He was going to join the military instead.”Ivan exchanged a glance with Henry, who raised an eyebrow, skeptical. “Bjorn, are you sure?” Henry asked carefully, his voice calm. “Did you actually see him join? See any evidence?”Bjorn shook his head, gritting his teeth. It was clear he had no hard proof, only the word of a former friend, and he knew that wasn’t enough for most people. It was no wonder they doubted him—he could see it in their eyes. But his instincts told him he was right.Ivan leaned forward, his voice low and steady, pressing Bjorn to think carefully. “Then how can you be so certain, Bjorn? What if Maximili

  • When Betray Brings Mr. Right   The Holland hospital, Boston

    Henry handed the iPad to Ivan, his expression tense. Ivan’s eyes scanned the screen, and his breath caught, his chest tightening as the information sank in. Holland Hospital in Boston. It wasn’t just a hospital; it was a fortress, a sprawling empire in its own right. Half private, half government-funded, with access to resources he could scarcely believe. This wasn’t just a facility—it was an entire operation.“When the hell did this happen?” Ivan muttered, his voice low and laced with shock.The details on the screen were staggering. Holland Hospital wasn’t just any hospital; it was a massive, self-sufficient complex, housing a state-of-the-art medicine lab, a top-tier medical school, and a high-security research center. The place was so vast it was practically its own village—a carefully constructed empire, guarded by layers of influence and power. And Neil was right at the center, with government connections backing his every move. The resources he had there went far beyond the Hol

    Erica gasped audibly, her body jolting with the revelation. She clutched her chest, stepping back instinctively, her eyes darting from Alysha to Neil, who stood beside the bed. Her gaze was full of disbelief, the weight of the words hitting her like a physical blow."No..." she breathed, shaking her head in disbelief. Her eyes widened even more as they locked onto Neil, who could only offer a helpless nod in response.

    Neil Holland rushed into the hospital room, his eyes widening in shock as he took in the scene before him. The door slammed against the wall as he pushed it open, the sound echoing through the room. The sight of Alysha lying crumpled on the floor, blood pooling around her head, sent a chill down his spine. For a moment, he was unable to comprehend the horrifying sight."Alysha!" he yelled, his voice filled with both fear and desperation.He dropped to his knees beside her, his hands trembling as he reached out, carefully lifting her head from the cold, bloodstained floor.

    Seraphina Holland walked briskly down the hallway, her mind still buzzing with the chaos she had created. She had to make sure no one had seen her—she had to make sure Alysha was dealt with for good. But as she turned the corner, she suddenly stopped, her eyes widening slightly as she took in the sight in front of her.Standing there, in the middle of the hospital corridor, was none other than Bjorn Rodriguez. Seraphina's breath caught for a moment, her face betraying her surprise. What was Bjorn doing here? But her expression quickly turned into a knowing smile. Perhaps it wasn’t a coincidence after all. If anyone could help her get closer to Armin and eliminate any threats, it was Bjorn.Bjorn saw her too, and his lips curved into a wide grin. His eyes locked onto hers, and an idea seemed to form in his mind. He needed Seraphina's help—she was the key to finding Andrine, and he knew it. His demeanor shifted slightly, his gaze sharpening as he took a step towards her.But before he c

"She has orange hair, and she looks like a Barbie doll."Everyone turned to see Bjorn standing there, holding the hand of Alora. Ivan’s eyes widened in surprise. "Bjorn!" he exclaimed. "Why did you bring Alora here? And what happened to her?"Alora, her face pale and her body trembling, broke free from Bjorn’s grip and ran toward Ivan. She clung to him tightly, burying her face against his chest. Her small body shook with fear, and her breath came in ragged gasps as she tried to speak, but the words wouldn’t come. She was too scared, too overwhelmed by everything she had seen. She couldn’t find the words to tell them what had happened in the hospital, to explain what she saw Seraphina do to Alysha. But she knew it was Alysha Jarl—she remembered her from the day she was married to Armin on paper. She had gone with Lili

Beside him, Seraphina Holland clung to his arm like a vice, her manicured nails digging into his sleeve. Her daring gaze was fixed on Alysha, her lips curved into a mocking smirk as if silently declaring her victory.Armin belongs to me, her look seemed to scream.On the opposite side, Ivan Anderson Suegra stood tall and unyielding.

Sometimes… letting go is the only way forward.”He stilled, his face shadowed with a heartbreak he hadn’t prepared for, his jaw tightening as he absorbed the truth in her words.

Take some time to rest.”Alysha turned to look at Heinz, her eyes wary, catching the subtle insistence in his tone. She could sense the layers beneath his words—the way he spoke as though her resistance were nothing more than fatigue, a temporary lapse that rest could fix. He was giving her no choice, and the authority in his voice reminded her just how deep the control in this family ran.Ivan, too, glanced at her, his gaze unreadable, though there was a flicker of something softer in his eyes, an unspoken plea.

    The convoy of sleek black cars pulled up to the sprawling gates of **Anderson State**, a place that had been shrouded in silence and mystery for decades. The estate was massive, its grand architecture looming against the gray Boston sky, surrounded by acres of well-manicured land that bore the scars of neglect. As the gates creaked open, Alysha peered out of the car window, her heart pounding. The sight of the mansion took her breath away—its towering columns and elegant stone façade exuded a timeless grandeur, but the faded paint and overgrown gardens hinted at years of abandonment. Sisi sat on Alysha’s lap, her tiny hands gripping her mother’s jacket tightly. She looked up at Alysha and whispered, “Mommy… big house.” Alysha managed a small smile, brushing her fingers through Sisi’s curls. “Yes, my angel,” she murmured, though unease prickled at the edges of her mind. Ivan, seated beside her, stared out the window, his jaw tight. His piercing blue eyes scanned the estate, hi

She didn’t understand the tension in the air or the argument unfolding between the adults, but she knew one thing for certain—she needed her mother, no matter what. “Mommy!” Sisi called, her voice trembling as she reached Alysha and grabbed the hem of her dress with her tiny hands. Alysha looked down, her amber eyes softening as Sisi clung to her, her little face scrunched with worry.
