Alena Maslak is a Russian woman who has been an entrepreneur for most of her life. However, when her family came to know about her, they asked her to come and work in their hometown. She was born in Moldava where she received her education in law. In her younger years, she worked as an assistant to a lawyer, prosecutor, doctor and other legal professionals.
When her marriage with Anatoly Petrovich became common, the couple forgot their surname but got along famously and had two children. When Petrovich died, Alena took up his surname thus keeping her identity a secret even until now. Even her name was not disclosed until recently when one of her former partners revealed it during an interview. In response to this, Alena formed a new relationship with Yuriy Shabayanov and became known as Yuriev, while retaining her nationality of Russian.
According to reports, Yuriy introduced Alena to Anatoly, whom she met during a visit to his workplace. They started dating and soon got engaged. However, before getting engaged, Yuriy suggested them to get married and save the money to pay for their wedding. They were not able to do so and were told that it is against the rules for a Russian woman to get married before reaching the age of thirty. So Alena decided to wed Anatoly and continue her studies in Astoria while working part time in her husband’s firm.
