The Marvelous Elijah's Return Don't hate me
Eyeing her son, Madam Jewel gave him a cold stare and then said, "No, that's all... I hope that you will honor your word and show up because your grandfather at least deserves such reverence from you."The dull pain in Peach's cheek still pissed her off, but she ignored it as the memories of her grandfather flashed before her eyes, and her lips trembled as she tried to cage her emotions and said, "Sure. For my grandfather, I can tolerate coming."The sight of Madam Jewel and Dean, the longer they stood in her face made Peach feel incredibly uncomfortable, and she blinked back her tears, averted her gaze, and stared down at the invitation."If that is all, I would like to attend to my daughter's wound," Miss Grace said in annoyance, her eyes fixed upon Dean as she continued speaking quietly. "You guys can see yourself out."Unexpectedly, Madam Jewel walked over to Peach, taking her hands in her grips, startling her with the sudden contact that caused her to look at her in surprise.Mad

The line was filled with Vlad breathing heavily and the sound of cars whizzing by, and then Dean finally heard "Boss, I got kidnapped and was just released on the side of the road with a bruised face, no shoes, and bloody clothes.." Snapping his brows in confusion, Dean looked at his mother, who had a serious expression on her face and was glaring at him as he let out, "What are you talking about?!" "Someone has people watching the motel... I don't know, boss... I don't know who it is... I don't know who the men were or how many they are because I was blindfolded, but they didn't like that I had been snooping around the motel!" Vlad explained, sounding frustrated. A sense of worry and anger welled in Dean as he tried to control the emotions rising inside of him, clenching his fists, he hissed, "What?!... What did you tell them then... huh? Did you tell them who asked you to spy on the motel?!" "No! Of course not, boss. I would never betray the Hayes family like that." Vlad pro
The Marvelous Elijah's Return What did she say?
With messy morning hair, a yawning mouth, and sleepy eyes, Peach walked into the lobby in a large t-shirt and shorts, and then smiled, not caring that James and Matt were there.A month plus with these guys had made her so comfortable with their presence that she didn't care for her look or to act formally anymore with them."James, what is for breakfast," Peach asked softly, smiling as their eyes locked.A warm expression graced his face as he grinned at her and said, "Pancake, muffins, toast, bacon, eggs..."The Sound of the front door opening caused him to glance back and frown as Ryan let out, walking into the lobby. "Did someone say egg... I hope it's not burnt."A wide smile spread against Peach's face as her eyes widened and she shouted, "Ryan, Rookie!! You guys!!!" "Peach!" Ryan replied, grinning as he turned away from James and looked at her.As she was about to head over to hug them, Peach felt a presence behind her and immediately stopped in her tracks. Turning slightly
The Marvelous Elijah's Return A Key
Sweat dripped down her forehead as Peach tossed aggressively and turned on her bed with her eyes closed, digging her hands into the sheet, as her grip tightened on the blankets. The sound of her father's angry cries haunted her dream as she struggled to wake up, but her eyelids felt heavy like lead in their sockets, tears rolling from the corners of her eyes, and onto her pillow. 'Dad,' The voice of her childhood self was faint, just a whisper, yet it still echoed throughout her mind.'Honey, let father grieve alone. Grandfather has been taking from us... so give him space.' Her mother's words were soft, and her body slowly relaxed on the bed. 'He's hurt... really sad like you and me, so let him be. For now.'"I will miss grandpa." Peach whispered in her sleep the exact words from the voice of her young self that crossed her mind and then her eyelids opened.Her vision was blurred for a moment, but she blinked slowly and saw her room bathed in sunlight. The sound of her breath cau
The Marvelous Elijah's Return As ready as I will ever be
Shoving his hand into the sleeve of his coat, Elijah adjusted his gold embroidered black fit blazer over his broad chest, deep into his thoughts, his fingers traced down the edge of the button and pushed it through the hole. For a silent minute, he stared at his reflection, the three-piece black suit, shirt, and silk tie giving him an elegant aura, and mumbled, "Let's do this." The lobby has tense energy surrounding it as Matt waited for Elijah and Peach along with Rookie, Ryan, and James. "Keep an eye on him... Please." James finally broke the silence, eyeing Matt. Looking back at James with a humble nod, Matt replied, "Will do." Then silence took over as the sound of footsteps approached them, and everyone tensed immediately as Elijah walked into the lobby. For a moment, he stared at Matt's black dress shirt with gold lapel pin, and then the sound of a heel slowly hitting the tiles got his attention. When Elijah turned around, his gaze rested softly on Peach in a long, dark
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Where is the will?
Seeing how Madam Jewel's grip on Peach's hand was not causing her any pain, Elijah held back his desire to interfere, knowing that the situation wasn't that threatening. "There is more to tonight, so I am hoping that you can stay a bit longer," Madam Jewel said calmly, her hand loosening its grip against Peach's wrist, allowing Peach to pull her hand away as she lowered her head slightly to avoid anyone noticing how uncomfortable she was. A frown settled on Elijah's face because he could tell from Madam Jewel's words that she had something up her sleeve, her tone and expression had him suspicious of what exactly she meant. "But," Peach whispered, darting her gaze to meet Elijah's eyes, feeling hesitant to agree. Trust wasn't something she wanted to give to Madam Jewel and her family, knowing too well the danger of doing so since Madam Jewel had always been crafty and manipulative with whatever she did, and she had never hesitated to use whatever means available to her. "I would lo
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Marry a stranger
The hall was in total silence after what Peach had said, and everyone was still staring at her, some with looks of disdain and others with expressions that showed their disbelief.Sighing, Madam Jewel shook her head slowly and said, sounding disappointed, "Mr. Meeks, give her the document.""Yes... I will get it from my car now." Lawyer Meeks hastily replied, looking slightly nervous, and Elijah caught onto it quickly, smirking faintly at the sight of his shaky gaze.Something was off about him, and Elijah could sense it, and his gaze followed Meeks as he walked off, holding back his desire to follow the lawyer and question him."Do you think I will lie on my late husband's name, especially on the day he passed... Am I that of a monster to you, Peach..." Madam Jewel cried, tears streaming down her face, as she placed a hand on her mouth in grief, drawing Elijah's attention back to her, and his expression hardened.With not a single care in her eyes and a numb expression, Peach shrugge
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Two birds, one stone
The hall was quiet until Melina suddenly burst into a chuckle that vibrated throughout the ballroom and caused quite a few people to frown in annoyance at the sound of such amusement coming out of Melina. The other guests glanced at her with confused expressions, not being able to understand what the problem was. The laughter finally died down, as Melina wiped the corners of her eyes from cracking up, and said in a soft tone, "Peach, I'm sorry if my reaction upset you, but why do you look so horrified like Grandmother is not doing you a big favor... Is it that you don't want to settle down because of my ex-husband, huh, my dear cousin?" 'What is this troublesome child doing now...' Madam Jewel thought as she raised a brow in anger. "Your daughter is going to go against Mother's wish for tonight... Why haven't you taught her some sense!" Tommy lashed out at Martha in a low tone. And a look of worry crossed Martha's features as she watched her daughter walk over to where Elijah an
