Gazing intensely into the bathroom mirror, Elijah reached for his toothbrush but then paused as a memory of Lawyers Meeks' words kept replaying in his head, the looks on his face when he said those words, and the way his body reacted a bit nervously to question about the will.Immediately, he grabbed his phone off the sink and scrolled for Ryan’s number until he got to it, dialing it.After ringing his number, the call got answered and Ryan's voice popped up through the speaker, “Good morning, Boss...”“I need us to discuss something important later on today, and I also need Matt and you this morning,” Elijah said as he watched the bathroom door reflection in the mirror slowly pushed open, and Peach popped her head inside.“Are we coming for the same reasons, or-”“Something like that, but there's more I need to pick your brains about.”“I am getting Matt, and we are on our way.”“Good, we will wait on you guys before we leave, so be here by nine.” Wondering who her husband was talki
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Phone the police now
As the security guards approached Elijah and the others, Ryan calmly took out a file from his briefcase and looked back at Elmer and the investors. “Well, I am a lawyer with a couple of degrees, including A Doctor of Juridical Science degree, and this is a valid will that both Mr. Hayes and the law enforcement officials' signatures are on, which proves everything that Peach has told you guys, that this company is now under her management,” Ryan explained calmly, taking out the document and showing it to the investors. “I have worked with Meeks before, and that is definitely his signature on this paper. He's a man of honor, and so am I,” Mr. Walker immediately stated, glaring at Elmer. The security reached the scene but immediately stopped out of confusion, seeing that no one was attacking Elmer and just stood there looking at each other. “It could be a fraud! Who knows...” Elmer answered, shrugging nonchalantly. “But we do know. You just blurted out that you thought the will got
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Fifty Percent
The anger that ate at Elijah slowly faded, and he looked back to see his wife staring calmly at him, and yet, he couldn't stop caring for what she was thinking at that moment about him.Sighing, Elijah looked back at Elmer and scoffed, letting go of his collar, causing his back to hit the tile, and a cry escaped his throat.Elmer lay on the floor, holding his chest, crying and moaning, shaking his head as he tried desperately to hold in his sobbing, the room became so quiet that the sound of a pin drop could've been heard. Everyone was shocked by what was happening in the lobby, and Natalie's hands were trembling as she tried to remember the police number, her mind a mess.“Natalie! Have you called the police yet?!” Mr. Elmer cried in rage as the pain from his face intensified because of the volume of his voice, and he moaned out, “Natalie!!!”“Yessir, I’m sorry sir, um, I need help here...” Natalie stammered with a shaky tone.“What help?”“Umm... What's the police number?”“What th
The Marvelous Elijah's Return There is more
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
The Marvelous Elijah's Return The last laugh
Even though she was hesitant, Natalie pushed the huge wooden door open, and then looked back at Elijah and Peach, mumbling, “This is it.”Calmly Peach walked past her, entering the office, and Elijah let out a soft sigh before following her into the room, then Natalie closed the door, leaving the two alone.There was this long pause between them as they both stood awkwardly in the center of the room while she stared at him.“You knew you weren't going to go to jail, didn't you?” Peach asked, her voice calm but not exactly pleasant.“I had an idea,” Elijah replied, not looking at her. “I just... wasn't quite sure if I could pull it off. But I am glad I did.” A look of hesitation crossed her face for a second before she seemed to settle down and took a deep breath before speaking again, “I’m just glad you and Matt don't get to go to jail.”‘But there are more your lips are refusing to say,’ Elijah thought to himself, watching as Peach fidgeted slightly with her hands.It was no secret
The Marvelous Elijah's Return Loose ends
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 Marvelous Elijah's Return Please, say it.
Calmly, Elijah looked over his shoulder at Peach, meeting her eyes, which immediately looked troubled by his glance, and then he smiled slightly, not wanting her mind to run wild.Then when a small grin appeared on her face, he looked back at Ryan and said, “Honestly, this had been my thoughts from the first time I set my sight on that lawyer. He seemed way too shaken and uncertain about what he was saying or doing that night.”“But why would the Hayeses want to fake a will just to give Peach a part of the properties after years of gatekeeping them for so long and getting away with it?” Ryan inquired, his brows furrowed in confusion.For a second Elijah just stood there in silence, deep in thought, and then he sighed, mumbling, “From what I saw yesterday between them and Peach, I will say control. A wild wolf is better managed in the pack, but if it becomes a rogue, the pack must be wary. And the Hayes family has a history of controlling everything and everyone, except her.”“Makes s
The Marvelous Elijah's Return The lawyer might die
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
