The Marvelous Elijah's Return Did you steal that
The sound of her office door opening made Melina raise her head and looked at Josh, the reporter that Elijah punched.his nose had a bandage on it, and it was still swollen, and Melina's brows snapped at the sight of him."What are you doing here?! I told you to call me. Not show up in my face, and not without warning me!" Melina said, resting back in her chair, crossing her arms against her chest and narrowing her eyes as she stared at him."I just got laid off from my job!" Josh said as he sat in the empty seat in front of her desk.A look of confusion filled Melina's face as she cocked her right eyebrow, waiting for him to explain further."The news I covered about Elijah and your cousin was pulled down from the media," Josh said, making her look at him in shock."What?!" Melina exclaimed, her voice cracking as she spoke through clenched teeth. "Who would dare cross me and my family like that?!""My boss said the news offended someone powerful and he couldn't risk us getting involv
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A criminal
In less than a second, security came rushing towards Elijah and this dude because of the commotion this guy was creating, and Matt quickly stood in a defensive position, ready to take care of whoever dared to attack his boss if things went awry."What is going on here?" The security guard asked angrily as he stopped right next to Elijah."This thief stole someone's invitation to the League private club and is using it to get access and benefits of the membership. I suggest that you arrest him!" The guy barked, pointing an accusing finger at Elijah. "Sir, you are-""We all know he's Melina's, cheating, good for nothing, ex-stay-at-home husband. There's no way he can afford to get into such a club... Hell, I have been trying to get into that club for years now.""Just-"And you think this idiot here can get in?! He must have stolen that from someone else or he used a fake one. Either way, I demand the arrest of this criminal!"Frowning, Matt clutched his fist as he glared at the man,
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Whatever that was
The room was quiet for a while, and Elijah studied Bryan's eyes, wondering if he was someone he wanted to risk the act of "mess around and find out" with at such a crucial moment in his life"Understandable, and I respect your decision... But if I am not involved in some deep shit?" Bryan asked, arching a brow challengingly.Peeking at Matt again, Elijah hesitated, but when Matt twitched his brows slightly, he faced Bryan and said, "Then you got yourself a deal." "Well, I can drink to that," Bryan said with a small smile as he picked up Elijah's glass and reached it out to him. But Matt tried to grab the glass and accidentally spilled it all over Elijah's coat, and when he noticed that, he exclaimed, "Oh, fuck! Sorry, sir!""It's fine," Elijah said, reaching over for a napkin, and patting down his shirt and pants."I am sorry. I should have known better than to serve you a glass of wine that has been pulled without your presence." Bryan apologized quickly, feeling glad that it was a

The sound of hums echoed from the kitchen as James bobbed his head to the beat of the music in his mind while frying the eggs."James, I feel healthy enough now to cook for you guys. You shouldn't be in the kitchen." Miss Grace said as she walked toward him with a smile on her face."I know... Being a butler is not my only job, I was a chef..." James blurted out, pausing as he turned to look at her."You are a butler? Who's Butler...? Why are you here if you are supposed to be working as someone's butler?" "Because...! Well... Because I got fired. You see when you love a job and it gets taken away from you... well, you never really recover from it." With a look of pity on her face, Miss Grace smiled weakly and mumbled, "You poor fellow. Now, I understand your love for my kitchen." Laughing nervously, James studied her kind eyes, rubbed his neck, and mumbled, "Well, thank you for understanding."There was a long pause as they stared at each other, and then Miss Grace sniffed the ai
The Marvelous Elijah's Return I never cheated on you
A frown crossed Miss Grace's face when she snapped out of her shocked state and mumbled stiffly, " Melina... What are you doing here?"Of course, she wasn't excited about seeing her since the incident at the hospital, and of course, even though her father is second to Peach's dad, Melina hardly has a sense of respect for her or her daughter."Can I come in?!" Melina asked impatiently, seeing that Miss Grace was blocking her way.Although she wasn't someone who liked confrontation, she knew if Peach knew Melina is here, it would stress her daughter up, and the fact that she was sick, the last thing Miss Grace wanted was to see her daughter upset or her headache worsen."I am sorry... but whatever you have to say, tell it to my face, right out here." Miss Grace uttered firmly, trying to sound as intimidating as possible because she didn't want Melina arguing with her about this.But just like the brat that she was, a faint laugh escaped from Melina's lips, making Miss Grace's eyes narro
The Marvelous Elijah's Return His parents are dead
The Subaru Forester sped through the huge open gate, and drove through the yard, into the garage, and then Melina hit the brake pedal hard.Her little interaction with Elijah had her in all her feelings, and her mood was a mess as she pushed the car door open and stepped out onto the concrete of the front walk. In front of her was a two-stories, enormous fancy mansion with glass panes and a white wraparound porch. Palm trees were lining the driveway and an immaculate flower bed along the side.The frown she had on didn't leave her face even after she got to the front door of the mansion and hit the doorbell.As she was about to ring it for the second time, someone opened the door, and she was met by a tall man in his late sixties with graying hair that wore a light black three-piece suit with a tie that matched his neatly brushed hair perfectly."Miss Melina, how lovely for you to visit... Good morning." The butler spoke quietly, a smile plastered on his face. With a sour expressio
The Marvelous Elijah's Return There's a serious problem
A gentle knock on the door made Mr. Bamford look up from the case file on his desk and stared ahead, calling out, "Come in." When the door opened, his secretary Lucy entered his office with a soft smile, saying, "Sir, there's a visitor for you." "Who?" Mr. Bamford replied without looking up from the case file, still reading through the information about the crime he was currently investigating."Madam Jewel Haye," "Hmm," The pen in his hand dropped on the sheet as he lifted his head slightly to glance at his secretary with an eyebrow raised. Then he rested back in his seat and sighed softly, "Send her in," "Yes, sir," Lucy said with a nod.Silently, Mr. Bamford watched her walk out of his office and waited until she closed his door before turning his attention back to the papers on his desk.A couple of minutes went by, then the door opened again, this time to reveal Mrs. Haye. She had her hands tucked into the front pockets of her black fluffy coat as she stepped inside befor
The Marvelous Elijah's Return What did you just say
The sound of her room door opening made Peach raise her head off the pillow and gazed at her mother, standing in the doorway, smiling at her."Can I come in?" Miss Grace asked cheerfully, closing the door behind her and stepping inside the room.Slowly, Peach sat up from the bed, hugging her knees as she rested her head on her kneecaps, feeling a sense of sadness welling up within her as she watched her mother approach her with a warm smile and sit down beside her on the edge of the mattress."James made chicken soup for dinner with rice and vegetables." Miss Grace told her kindly.Shaking her head slowly, Peach said with a sad smile, "I'm too full already, Mama. You should go ahead and eat without me.""Peach, you have been in here all day and have barely put much in your stomach. That's not healthy!" Miss Grace chided her, gently squeezing Peach's hands.One look at her mother and Peach could see her concern clearly written across her wrinkled brows and pursed lips. The sight mad

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 Marvelous Elijah's Return You safe me
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
