All Chapters of The Marvelous Elijah's Return: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

The door to the lobby finally opened, and Mr. Bamford walked in with twelve police officers following closely behind him.Silence completely took over the lobby of the building and only the sound of their boots could be heard hitting the tiles as they walked over to where Elijah was.The tears in Peach’s eyes immediately stopped, and a sense of confusion flooded every part of her mind as her eyes followed the officers until they stood in front of her husband and the other five officers.“Chief! What are you doing here?” One of the five officers asked with worry evident in his voice.The other four looked just as confused as him, and fear started creeping its way on their faces after the chief didn’t reply immediately.Meeting Elijah’s eyes and his bloodstained nose, Mr. Bamford frowned, dragging his gaze down to Elijah's hands locked behind his back, and said, “Uncuff him now!”The firmness in his tone caused Peach’s eyes to widen with a shocked expression, she opened her mouth, but n

A sense of rage awakened from Madam Jewel's bruised ego at the thought that a lowlife would dare challenge the Hayeses with such a direct insult to their faces, and a feeling of disbelief overcame her as she mumbled, “Elijah, Elijah? Melina's ex-husband... Peach's current husband did that... to your face?” The way his mother pressed on those words made Elmer even more irritated, and with a sharp inhale he finally snapped, “Yes... Now, can we just drop it? I already have a plan to deal with that bastard, so can we just focus on the company and the fact that I'm Peach now owns Investistic Co?” A shock coursed through the entire group, except Madam Jewel, who sighed out her frustration, feeling the tension in the room build-up, as she turned around, walked back towards her seat, saying in a hushed voice, “I can't... This is just...” “Peach owns what?!” Cora cried out, looking completely confused, and while she glanced around at the others, they seemed just as lost as she was. Meeting

The sound of loud thunderstorms rippled through the air before Peach spoke up with uncertainty. Her voice sounded soft and fragile when she answered, “I thought he was talking about us... my mom, dad, and me.” After a brief pause, Elijah tried not to show the confusion he felt on his face and kept quiet for a few moments as his hands started tightening around hers, and then he asked, “Really? Did he mention that in particular?” Slowly, Peach shook her head, her eyes falling closed momentarily, and then she looked at Elijah who seemed to be waiting for her to answer. She bit her lip nervously, but finally, she sighed, and she mumbled, “Well... no. But Jewel always used to say to me, He was going to kick us out one day, and that we were a nuisance to my grandfather, and he would soon get sick of us... So when I heard that, I thought that was the day.” “Peach, he could have been talking about anyone...” Elijah stated gently. “He could have meant any number of people.” Even though th

The lobby of Investistic Co. was a bit noisy, and yet it had a calm atmosphere, but all that immediately changed as tension and silence took over the moment the front doors opened and Elijah stepped inside with Dice, Ryan, and Rookie by his side.Every employee in the lobby instantly snapped to attention when they saw him, and their faces twisted into various looks of fear, anger, confusion, and annoyance.The quiet only lasted for a couple of seconds, and then the whispering began as the stares continued.“Is he just a reckless man, or a stupid one because after what he did to Elmer... if I was him, I would have been out of the country by now and in hiding.” One of the female employees muttered under her breath.“Honestly, I feel embarrassed for him. With all the rumors about his first marriage and how the public saw him then, you think he would have learned his lesson, but he has become even more -” The guy by her whispered, pausing in fear when Elijah's eyes and his unintentionally

The elevator slowly opened, and Daniel Ferguson along with a couple of old dudes walked out, looking confused like children separated from their parents at the grocery store.When Daniel's eyes locked with Elijah, he scowled slightly, and then walked over to them, saying, “It’s you.” “Who are these guys?” Elijah questioned, raising an eyebrow at the other.Looking back, Daniel stared at his colleagues’ faces, and then faced Elijah saying, “Mr. Boone, Elrod, Madden, Laurier, Viotto, Fox, Caddel, Francis, and Mr. Amana... The members of the board.”“You are...” Mr. Elrod stated bluntly, gazing at Elijah. “Madam Jewel's new grandson-in-law... Where is your wife.”“Home,” Elijah said with a casual expression.An awkward silence settled in the atmosphere as the board of directors ignored him and then stared around.And almost in unison, they focused back on Elijah and asked, “Where is everyone?”“Gone,” Elijah said in the same indifferent manner.“Gone?” Mr. Fox repeated with a disbelievi
