The Marvelous Elijah's Return

The Marvelous Elijah's Return by Rever Chapter 126

Crucify them When Elijah's eyes opened to the morning light, Peach was still snuggled against him like

acontented kitten, her legs tangled against his.

"Hey," Elijah said quietly, gently nudging her awake.

"I have to leave early." Immediately, he felt her frown against his chest and then she woke up and raised her

head, "What time is it?" "Tenforty." Elijah answered, smiling at the way that Peach's eyes suddenly widened.

"It's almost noon!" "You look so comfortable, and I didn't want to wake you."

A slight chuckle escaped his lips whenshe rushed off him, left the bed, and asked, "Are we leaving for the

company?" "Dice will drop you there.

I have to go somewhere first, and then I will meet you there."

There was a brief silence between them as she studied his eyes,and then she smiled and mumbled, "Okay...

I should get ready then." As she was about to head for the bathroom, Elijah reached off the bed, grabbed her

hand, and pulled her back towardshim, "I got something for you." Even though she had a guess, she doubted

slightly that it was it, and she tilted her head to one side, curiously, watching as he opened the nightstand

drawer and then took out her wedding ring.

Slowly, a frown grew on her face as she looked up to him, mumbling, "You did go after Jacob."

"I never said that I wasn't going to," Elijah said ashe slid the ring on her finger before meeting her eyes.

"I know you hated what I did, but I detested the thought of him having something that is rightfully yours and

means a lot tome." Stroking her fingers over the ring, Peach smiled up at him and whispered," Thank you,

hon." For a long time, she studied her husband's face, wondering how the heck he went against Jacob and

came back without a scratch, and since he was the one unharmed, she blurted out her thoughts, "What

happened to Jacob?" "Jacob is at the hospital.

He sustained two broken ribs and a concussion that has him in an induced coma." Madam Jewel announced

at thedinner table with rage laced in her every word.

Her sons and grandsons glared at her like she was the devil that they didn't want to see or speak to.

"Melina and the others are not home yet and you are worried about your ex lover?!" Dean lashed out, his

handson the table clenched tightly.

"Dean," Mathew warned him softly, "Be calm and keep your voice down." "Oh, I am calm, alright! No

one gives a fuckabout if Jacob is dying or whatever shit is happening to him...

You promised that that bastard Elijah was going to release our daughters and wives yesterday! Todayis

a new day, so where the hell are they?!" "Dean, come on! That's our mother-" "I want my daughter and

my wife safe and sound.

I don't care if Jacob..." Frowning at her son, Madam Jewel cut him off, saying, "Elijah and his thugs

found Jacob lastnight at a club, and Elijah beat him into his current situation..." Suddenly, Tyson stood

up, grabbed the glass of water, and threw it on the wall, smashing the glass into pieces, and

immediately, silence reigned over the dining room.

"Tyson!" Madam Jewel called out to her grandson.

"First, he came for my dad, locking him behind bars, and now all this shit ?! What does he hope to gain

from all ofthis?!" Tyson yelled angrily, "Maybe it's time I meet this dickhead face to face." Watching her

grandson storm off, Madam Jewel stood up and shouted, "Tyson, did you hear a word that I said? He

literally beat the shit out of Jacob last night...

Bring your butt back here!!" But her words did nothing to stop Tyson's determined footsteps and soon

she hearda faint slam of the door and sighed in defeat.

The moment Rick brought the car to a stop, Elijah stared out the window and saw Scorpio walking over

to the vehicle.

Then he pushed the car door open and stepped out, asking, "Where are they?" "This way, boss."

Scorpio saidcalmly before leading him over to the building.

When they entered, Elijah calmly stared at Patricia's eyes, remembering how big of a mouth she had

that day at the hospital and how arrogant she acted, and now thefear dancing in her eyes was just plain

satisfying.

Not saying a word to any of them, he walked over to Amelia, reached for her hair, took out a scissor,

and cut a fewstrings, causing her to struggle against the rope binding her to a chair.

Then he walked over to Cora, and she slightly pulled her head behind, but that didn't stop him from

putting the scissors into herhair and cutting more string before putting it in a separate transparent bag

like he did with Amelia's.

• Suddenly his phone started buzzing, and he fished it out of his pocket, frowning at the number onhis

screen.

"I am becoming restless now, Elijah.

It's almost noon, and I made sure your wife returned to you unharmed, so why are you not keeping

yourend of the bargain?" Madam Jewel sounded like she was trying to control herself, but she couldn't

hide her impatience.

"Firstly, Peach wasn't unharmed because of you since you were the reason she got kidnapped!

Secondly,my wife spent a day with that ass, and I am just balancing the scales." Elijah stated, watching

the shock on Cora's face at his words.

There was a long pause before Madam Jewel replied, her tone a lot softer, "Alright...

When are they going to get released?" "Today...

I have no use for them since my wife is fine and in good health...

But the next time you come for my wife like that again, I will not hold back.

I hope you understand that, Jewel." Elijah said calmly before ending the call in her ear.

Then he looked over at Scorpio as he shoved his phone into his pocket, commanding, "Wait three

hours from now, and then releasethem." At full speed, Tyson drove his car into Investico Co.'s parking

lot and then hit the brake, causing the car to screech before stopping finally.

After he stepped out of the vehicle, he was about to head into the building when he saw five SUVs

driving toward the company, and he froze inhis place, wondering, "What kind of influential person is

visiting these two scums?" When the vehicle came to a stop, a bunch of men in black suits exited their

cars, looked around, and then, splitting themselves up into two, rolled at the back door of the third SUV.

Now, Tyson was even more curious as he watched the door open, a man stepped out, and then he

turned and reached his handinto the car.

"What the fuc- Peach!" Tyson muttered quietly as his cousin got down from the car, wearing a blush

two-piece suit, her hair curledup and her makeup on point.

"Wait, what?!" Dumbfounded for a moment, he watched her walk towards the building, and then

he finallysnapped out of his trance, shouting, "Peach! Hey! Peach!" Hearing her name, she stopped

suddenly in her tracks and looked back, seeing that it was Tyson hurrying up to her.

When he reached her, a mirthless laugh escaped his lips as he said, "Damn, Peach.

Being the wife of a hooligan really turned out great for you...

But I will need you to tell your sick husband to free Melina, Martha, and every other woman in our

family andlet them come home." "What are you talking about, Tyson?" Peach asked, looking at him

confusedly.

"Oh, it seems like you don't know...

Your so-called husband kidnapped them.

He a lunatic and I need you to talk some fucking sense into him!" Tyson snapped at her before turning his

eyesaway from her, feeling anger surge through his body.

"When was this?"

"Yesterday...

So are you pleased with the shithead you married?!" It took Peach a second to put two and two together,

finally understanding why Jacob suddenlystarted speaking with fear when he mentioned Elijah and why

Madam Jewel was at the suite when she got there, and why she was unharmed all through her kidnapping,

even though she was among men that glared at her with lustful eyes like they want to devour her.

"I married the best man ever," Peach suddenly blurted out in excitement, her smile widening from ear to ear as

ahappy glimmer appeared in her eyes.

Her cousin looked stupefied as he gaped at her in disbelief, and then rage spiked in Tyson's eyes as hetook a

step for her, but his way immediately got blocked by five guys dressed in black who moved in front of Peach.

"Step back three feet!" Larry ordered him.

His ego swelling and eyes blazing at the sight of those men, Tyson tried to dare Larry onlyto get a shoved in

his chest, making him stumble.

"Back three feet!" Larry commanded again.

"Now!" "What the fuck," Tyson whispered, his face pale as he took three steps backward, knowing not to push

his luck.

Unable to see Peach's face because of the men blocking her, Tyson shouted out," You are back home now

and safe, so can you tell him to keephis end of the deal and.» "So, you knew what Jewel did to me...

You all are some damn hypocrite...

You spit on others and Crucify them when it's your family that's hurt, but when you do the same shit to others,

that's fine because their livesare irrelevant...

Right?"

Peach interrupted her cousin.

Having no come back, Tyson said nothing, and when Peach started walking, all the men surroundingher

moved along with her, and Tyson quickly stepped aside, out of the way with a shocked expression.
