The Marvelous Elijah's Return The box
Unmuting his mother’s call, Elijah hastily asked, “Did you talk to doctor Harry to come over and check her up?”“Yes. He's attending to her right now.” Mrs. Maxwell answered. “I just thought you would like to know-”“Thank you, mom, for telling me. I will be on the next flight back home soon...”“You don't-” “Let me call you back.” “Is everything okay? You sound-”“Love you, mom.”After those words, Elijah ended the call, seeing Rick's incoming call, and he immediately answered, “Rick,”“Why is Dice speeding up, boss?” Rick's voice came through the phone, sounding concerned.Subconsciously, Elijah glanced at Dice's speedometer, seeing that it was dangerously close to the limit and then he said, “The hoodie, cap, and glasses at the airport didn't work in my disguise to enter the country without drawing unwanted attention... But it doesn't make sense that someone would know if I am entering Syldavia or when, if... Shit!”“What?!” Rick exclaimed, clearly worried about Elijah's sudden c
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Pardon
The sound of chitchats and laughter of a bunch of old ladies' voices echoed in Elijah's ears as he watched from a distance his mother hugging Peach's arm with a big smile on her face as she introduced Peach to Madam Elle and the other ladies in her book club.“Your daughter-in-law is very pretty, Lisa.” A classic dressed old lady spoke up with her soft eyes on Peach.“Your son is quite a lucky man.” Madam Elle added. “She’s such a darling.”Seeing all the attention go on Peach and Mrs. Maxwell, Elle pouted at the thought that their afternoon Tea and books event was taking place at the Maxwell mansion because all the women voted so because they wanted to see Peach.“Can we read the next book already?.. Because after this, I have to go visit my grandkids.” Elle whined.And then she looked over at Mrs. Maxwell and asked, “When is your son going to put a bun in the oven? They seemed to have been together for quite a while now, according to you.”Nervously looking over to Elijah, Peach met
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Gunshot
The flashes of lights and cameras immediately went off and on as Elijah stepped out of the car, and then he reached into the vehicle for Peach, taking her hand in his and gently leading her out of the Mercedes. Then he secured her by her waist, glad that she was only two months pregnant and her stomach had not started showing yet, and yet there was still a trace of worry in his voice as he whispered in her ear, “You should have stayed home.”“I am fine, honestly.” Peach leaned in closer to his ear to mumble, smiling when he met her eyes. “Also, it would seem rude if I didn't attend Madam Elle’s husband's birthday with you.”But Elijah's worry wasn't about her being fine, it was the fact that she was attending such a public event with him when he knew that after a month, he still had not figured out what happened back in Syldavia a while ago, and who was behind it.Although the premises were heavily guarded by his men and his father's guys’, it still wasn't enough to keep Elijah's hea
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Bloodshed and Crime
“Elijah Maxwell is back in the country. The thirty-one years old, Third-generation billionaire was cornered by the paparazzi this morning at nine o'clock at Syldavia national airport with his bodyguards...” The news lady said, and Madam Jewel scowled at the television. Then she threw a glare at Eli, who was sitting a couple of distance from her in the next chair as they listened, “The heir of the Maxwell family refused to answer questions about his wife, the young granddaughter of Mr. Hayes, but he did say that his reasons for returning to the country are to attend to business-related matters...” “Your father is useless!” Madam Jewel hissed under her breath, which made Eli eyed her, “How hard is it to kill two people... Just two! Each day I wake up, knowing that Peach and Elijah are still breathing the same air as me after everything they have done to our family… it is infuriating!” When Eli didn't say anything, that only made her even more enraged and she lashed out, “Elijah is ba

Darting his gaze away from the door, DeeDee looked back at Elijah and then said, “I can’t leave the country now. Thornton is a smart man... If he senses that anything is out of place for a transaction, he will back off from it and go into hiding...”The fear in DeeDee’s eyes subsided as he continued, “If you want to catch Thornton in the act and lock him up for good, tonight is the night. He has a container of teen girls leaving in the morning hours by sea to be sold to a Brothel in Memphis, and it's too dangerous to wait for another day... Tonight, his guard will be down because everything is set for the transaction.”“So, are you agreeing to my offer?” Elijah asked.“Yes!! These past months, I can barely look into my grandmama's eyes out of shame, knowing that I work for the devil. When I close my eyes, I am disgusted with the nightmare I have. Thornton said if he aces this transaction, he will reward me with a weapon... I don't want a gun, I want to further my education.” “Okay th

The moment Melina stepped out of her car, a swamp of reporters came for her with their camera crews.There were at least twenty different journalists with microphones and cameras all clamoring to talk to her. She tried to keep them away from her by holding up her hands in a placating gesture, but her efforts went unappreciated as she was surrounded immediately on all sides. “Melina! Have you watched your Ex-husband's interview with Thomas Jefferson from the Point Media about your infidelities within the years of your marriage?” A journalist asked.Then another reporter soon cut in, pushing his mic into Melina’s face, saying “Is it true you manipulated the media and used your influence to shift the blame on him when in fact you were the one who cheated and abandoned him?”“I never cheated and never abandoned my husband… Imean ex-husband!” Melina shouted, struggling to push past the reporters.But they weren’t budging. They just kept coming forward and shouting questions like, “What do
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A couple of blood
Seeing Madam Jewel lying unconscious with her wrist cut, blood pooling on the ground beneath her like a small puddle of red paint made Amelia scream again, “Dean! Tommy, get your asses up here now!” The echo of their sister's scream made the two frown, Tommy mumbled, “What is she freaking out about?” “Let’s just get up and see what's all the fussing is about,” Dean stated. A moment later, when they arrived in Madam Jewel's room, at first, Dean scowled at his sister, the way she was sobbing hysterically, and then she pointed her finger at their mother's body. Then his face went cold, and he shouted, “Tommy, call the ambulance!” A while later, the sound of an ambulance siren was echoing in the premises of the Hayes mansion, and the EMTs rushed into the house, returning outside a moment later with Madam Jewel on a stretcher, and Dean helped them lift the stretcher to the ambulance and he looked over to his mother, and then he saw her lashes fluttered before her eyelids tightened. “
The Marvelous Elijah's Return An arrest
As her eyelids widened, Miss Grace couldn't bear to watch the video anymore, and she dropped her phone on the table, not having an appetite to touch her food, and then said, “Elijah would never… never do something this gross! This has Jewel's handwriting all over it.” Slapping his hand on the table, Mr. Maxwell's face went cold as he screamed, “I can't believe Jewel and her children are still doing shit like this!” “This old lady is mentally ill,” Mrs. Maxwell mumbled, completely in awe of what she was staring at. “My son would never do something this brutal and unkind to a woman so helpless as that.” The dining room went quiet and then a sense of worry suddenly hit Mr. Maxwell, and he said, “Can someone check on Peach? She hasn't come down yet, and I am sure that she has seen the videos.” Immediately, both Miss Grace and Mrs. Maxwell stood from their seats, and they smiled at each other's sudden response before leaving the dining room and heading upstairs, Miss Grace with quick,

The Marvelous Elijah's Return Epilogue Four
“Piki, stop.” Dan cried, afraid that she was going to get punished because of him.The noise coming from the children's section got the grown-up's attention, and then they hear a little girl, “Piki is beating up Kelvin.”Immediately, Peach and Elijah ran to the backyard with the other adults, and when the kids saw Elijah coming towards them, they split up, giving him access to his daughter.“Get off him, Piki,” Elijah said, frowning as his daughter raised her fist to strike Kelvin in the face again. “Now!”When she refused to listen, he grabbed her by her jumpsuit and pulled her off Kelvin, hugging her in his arms.Immediately, she started crying on her father's shoulder, choking on her tears.“Now what are you crying about?” Elijah said, caught between wanting to discipline her and comfort her.“Kelvin kicked my gift and hurt Dan!! I just wanted him to stop being mean to Dan!!” Piki cried, hugging her father's neck.Looking down at Dan, Elijah saw the cut on the back of his hand, and
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Epilogue Three
Six SUVs in rolls came to a stop in front of the Syldavia Supermax prison, and five of their doors immediately opened and a bunch of men in black suits rushed for the third car's back door.When one of them opened it, Bryan Checks stepped out, adjusted his coat, and walked into the building. When the security on duty saw him, they immediately saluted him, and Bryan nodded before walking past them. “He’s such a faithful son. Even though his father is in prison for posting threats to the life of the president and important government officials and trying to kill him, he still shows up here every year to visit him.” A guard said as he watched Bryan walk away.“Yeah, he's a great son.” The other guard mumbled under his breath.A while later, after following all the prison procedures, Bryan was placed in a room with his dad cuffed to the table.“Get out of my face!!!” Mr. Landon screamed as loud as possible. “I don’t wanna see you! Get the hell out!!”A smirk played on Bryan's lips as he

The breathtaking garden in the back of the Maxwells mansion was extremely decorated with white tents with a makeshift ceiling designed with floral chandeliers.The altar was framed with a few oversized floral arrangements. It was simple but extremely elegant, and even the weather seemed to be in a good mood that day.“Da-Da!” Piki shouted in Mrs. Maxwell's arms when she saw Elijah approaching them from the opposite direction. “Dada! Dada!“There’s my Princess,” Elijah said when he reached them, grabbing her from in his mother's arms and kissing her cheeks repeatedly as her wild laughter filled the air. Then he looked at his mother and said, “I can't believe I am doing this for the third time again.”“You know what they say. Third time is the charm,” Mrs. Maxwell replied, smiling. “This time you and Peach are in a better place in your life. Piki is one year old, and you guys have given yourself a long time to heal from the past. Now, you two can seal your future again and start a new

“Three months! She's three freaking months,” Elijah mumbled, looking down at his baby and smiling at her in her crib. “Can she stop growing?”A laugh escaped Peach’s lips as she stared at her husband standing over their daughter's crib and then she walked over to him wrapping her arms around his waist, saying, “She is not going to stop growing. You have to prepare your heart to watch her become a woman.”“I don't want her to...” Elijah said as Piki grabbed his hand, trying to pull it into her mouth. “There’s nothing we can do about that, honey. All we can do is be there for her and record her growth, so we can have something to look back on. That's why today is important.”“I know, babe… Honestly, I can't wait for them to meet her.”A knock on the couple made Peach let go of Elijah and walked over to the door, and when she opened it, Miss Grace was standing there with a smile on her face.“Matt and the others are here.” Miss Grace said, causing Elijah to raise his head and gaze at th
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Face to face
Like a madman, Deacon opened fire on the SUV, bullets flying everywhere as he screamed, “Go to hell!”As the sound of bullets hitting the car from every angle, Matt, Dice, and Rookie kept their head down, and Matt could hear Elijah screaming from the other end of the call, “Matt, say something! Please! Are you guys okay?! Is anyone Hurt? Fucking tell me something, anything!”“We are okay, boss!” Matt shouted back, because of the deafening sound of the fires.Finally, silence ceased the atmosphere, and immediately, Dice raised his head, feeling glad that he was working for Elijah because of how built their vehicles were, and even though the car took a lot of hits, a single bullet didn't penetrate the car.Staring at Deacon, Dice immediately guess that he was out of bullets, and with a fifty-fifty chance that that was true, he jumped out of the car, causing Rookie to scream, “Dice, no!”When Deacon saw him coming toward him, he turned to run for his car, but like a wild cat, Dice lunged
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A face in the crowd
With a smile on his face, Elijah held Piki with one hand, and in his other hand, his phone as he walked around the garden.It took a moment for his call to get answered, and when Bryan's face appeared in the video call, he blurted out, “I can not believe I am saying this, but congratulations, Senator Checks on winning the election.”It grew silent for a second, and then both men burst into laughter, excitement clear in each of their voices. “Thanks, Bro,” Bryan said after they had caught their breath. “For everything. I mean it from the depths of my heart. Today wouldn't have been possible without your help.”“I was just paying my debt to you.” Elijah teased, and then said with a bit of remorse in his voice. “I am just sad that I couldn't be there in person today to watch you speak to the public. But all of my men are going to be there to show my support.”“I appreciate that. Also, you got Piki and Peach to be there for, so I understand.” “Yeah,”The call went silent for a split sec

The sound of Piki screaming made Peach feel for Elijah, her fingers poking his nose and eyes as her palm rubbed against his face, and she whispered, “Babe, the baby is crying.”Sleepily, Elijah opened his eyes and then closed them, moaning out a breath as he mumbled, “I am up.”Yet, he was still laying with his eyes closed, but another scream from Piki made him jump from his sleep, shouting, “I am up, baby! Daddy is up!”Then he jumped from the bed, rushing to her crib, and reached into it, scooping her up and cradling her, singing nonsense words at her that made Peach giggle sleepily.Even though the two weeks of taking care of a newborn were challenging, Elijah refused a nursery for the baby, allowing her to sleep in his room, and denied the offer of a nanny. His heart won't let him trust a soul other than his internal family around his daughter, after everything that he and Peach had gone through.“Shush,” Elijah murmured quietly at her, pressing a kiss to her forehead. “Is your p
The Marvelous Elijah's Return I love you
Early that morning, Madam Maxwell was a bit on the edge as she walked around the kitchen, tasting and giving instructions for every meal the maids were preparing. Her eyes would occasionally flicker from stove to pots and pans, her lips pursed in concentration. Finally, the sound of Miss Grace's voice drew her attention to the kitchen doorway when she heard, “Elijah, Peach, and the baby are home.”A look of raw excitement came over Lisa's face and she smiled widely as she rushed out of the kitchen with Miss Grace following closely behind.When they got into the living room, both their eyes were wet with tears to see little Piki in the car seat that Elijah was hoping for, and suddenly, the two days of waiting felt worth it for both grandmothers.Not wasting a second, Miss Grace ran to Elijah while Mrs. Maxwell rushed for Peach and they pulled the couple into a tight hug.“Thank you, Elijah. Thank you.” Miss Grace cried at her son-in-law.Even though Elijah was trying to keep up the t
