The Marvelous Elijah's Return He was watching us
Like wildfire, the news about Elijah purchasing Reinvest Co. spread all through the country within just one week of him buying it from Mr. Astor, and as he and Peach sat in the car, he could hear the noise from the reporters outside, their screams and the flashes from the light.Because his ribs were not completely healed yet at that time, Matt, Ryan, and the others had been the ones running things discreetly at the company.But it had been two weeks since the incident, and Elijah was barely in pain anymore, and he could walk just fine and only experience slightly discomfort because his ribs still were not fully recovered.Looking away from the window, Peach rested her gaze on her husband, afraid because he had not gotten “clear” from the doctor yet, and secondly, this was the first time they were going to get seen together with him being a Maxwell.“The reporters can be very pushy. Are you sure your body is about to take such a big strain?” Peach whispered, looking into his eyes fo
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Dead or maybe not...
The feeling of a soft kiss on her bare back made Peach’s lips pull into a smile, and she rolled over to face Elijah, her eyes beaming."Hey, sleepyhead." She grinned as she raffled her fingers through his messy hair, giggling when he groaned and nuzzled closer to her side. Her other hand traced shapes across his chest, and she could feel him shiver at her touch.“Our flights leave in the next three hours… Don’t make us book another ticket.” Elijah whispered huskily, and she laughed again, turning so she was laying on top of him. Her hands moved down to rest on his hips, and she leaned forward, placing small kisses along his collarbones. Then she stopped to take his lower lip between her teeth, smiling against it.“Peach,” Miss Grace's voice drifted through the open door, and Peach froze, looking at the doorway.“Elijah,” Immediately Peach tried to jump off Elijah when she heard his father's voice, but he grabbed her waist, pressing her down against his bare chest.“What are you doing
The Marvelous Elijah's Return The real enemies
Frowning slightly, Elijah knew that the voice belonged to Lawyer Meeks, and yet he was skeptical of the fact that he was alive. A part of him still could not believe it, but the rest of his logical mind seemed to think differently. “How did you survive the fall?” Elijah asked.After dealing with the Hayeses for so long, Elijah knew how tricky and treacherous the family can get to achieve their goals.“I black out during the fall and the next thing I knew, I opened my eyes in a tiny room with this old lady and her daughter, and they had been helping me since then... I can not walk, Elijah. The impact of my body hitting the water with such force injured my spine. I need to get out of the country to seek treatment... If I keep hiding with no proper medical care care, I will die, for real.” Mr. Meeks spoke slowly and he sounded very weak. “What happened that day… the evening the accident took place?” “I want to see your face first… I want to explain things to you in person because I d
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
The Marvelous Elijah's Return I am you mother!!!!
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
