The hall was so silent that if a pin dropped it would cause noise as reporters remained seated in this grand hall, staring at Amelia on stage, sitting behind a mic, and they kept staring at her, with the little notepad in their hands.The early morning news about Axel Jones’ death came to her mind, but she quickly wiped away her tears, and then she said, “Good evening everyone. Thank you all for showing up and accepting my invitation.”As she stared at the faces of the journalist, she knew that her mother would be proud while watching this because these were reporters Madam Jewel handpicked for Amelia to use to their advantage.“This is our side of the story... The media has spread lies about us all because of one man... a man with so much power, who entered into our family, just to destroy us. Everything that has happened to each Hayes, is all Elijah’s doing.” Amelia looked down at the microphone to say, “To me, he’s been nothing but a monster, who is trying to destroy my family, and

Holding Elijah's hand a bit tightly, Peach stared solely at him as they sat in the backseat of the Limousine, on their way to the hospital.“It’s just a check-up,” Elijah said, trying not to let his nervousness show through. “You and little Munchkin are fine.”“I know. I'm just happy... a bit nervous, but happy,” Peach admitted, and then she took a moment to take some deep breaths, then looked at her husband with a small smile. A while later, Elijah walked Peach into Doctor Harry's office, the couple smiled at him when he raised his gaze and beamed at them.“Welcome guys… Sit, please.” Dr. Harry asked politely.After leading Peach to a chair, Elijah took a seat by her and then focused on Dr. Harris as he asked, “So, are you two really to hear your baby's heart-”Suddenly Elijah’s ringtone interrupted the doctor, and with an apologetic look on his face, he stared at Peach as he reached into his pocket for it, mumbling, “I am so sorry, babe.”When he got it out of his pocket, Elijah st

The dining table was quiet as Mr. Williams sat with his daughter-in-law, his son, and Dan, and after a while, Vance asked his father, “So, he’s coming here today?” “Yes,” Dr. Williams said, staring intensely at his food. After a long silence, Julie gazed at him and then said, "Do you think he's about to make his final move?" "If he is, then I will have to come clean... He has done so much for us and weakened Jewel so much that I think it's safe now..." Mr. William mumbled, lifting his head to stare at his son. "What are you not telling us, father?" Vance asked, crossing his arms over his chest. Silence settled in the room and then Mr. Williams whispered, "I did it to protect your cousin." "Uncle Elijah!!" Dan's sudden shout made the three of them turn their heads to stare at the dining room doorway to see Elijah walking into the room. "Elijah... I mean, Mr. Maxwell..." Vance said, looking slightly nervous, knowing that a lot of things had come to light in the media about Elijah

The night has been one of the hardest for both Elijah and Peach, sleeping in separate rooms, away from each other's touch and comfort, and unable to sleep properly because they couldn't seem to stop craving each other's warm bodies. And when the morning arrived, Peach was staring at the sunrise through the hospital window and wishing that all of this was just a bad dream. But she knew it was not when she saw her mother sleeping on the couch by her side.When Miss Grace opened her eyes, she weakly smiled and asked, “How do you feel now.”“I can’t believe I am going to be spending four months away from him…” Peach whispered, trying not to start crying again because she felt tired from how much sobbing she did that night.“Elijah will be visiting you.” Miss Grace said, waking from the couch. Then she approached the bed and sat down, taking Peach's hand in her own and caressing her knuckles with her thumb. “You know it's not the same, mama.” Peach whispered with a shaky smile.“I know

“Hey, Mrs. Maxwell...” A cute nurse said in a sweet tone as she walked into Peach's room. “How are you feeling?”Laying on the bed, Peach turned her head to stare at the nurse, saying, “I am good.”“That’s great. We love when our patients are good.” The nurse replied as she took the clipboard that sat next to the bed. “Okay. Dr. Harry will be in soon. Today is the day we do your BPP. It's normal like all the other ultrasounds. Doctor Harry just thinks you need a BPP because of the injury to your back from your fall.”Then she looked around slightly, and blurted out softly out of curiosity, “Is your husband still here?”“No. He flew out of the country yesterday.” Peach stated flatly before looking back down at her hands.Suddenly the room door opened and Doctor Harry walked in with a smile on his face as he said, “Hi, Peach! How are ya doing today?” “Better,” Peach responded with a small smile as her doctor pulled over a chair and sat down beside her bed.“Okay... then. Are you ready?
