The Marvelous Elijah's Return

The Marvelous Elijah's Return by Rever Chapter 127

Mother, what have you done?! The door to the hospital opened, and Elijah stepped into the lobby with Rick,

both men headed down to thereceptionist's desk and smiled softly at her.

"How may I help you, sir?" She said after looking up to meet their friendly expression.

"I research that you guys carry out DNA tests here." Elijah said politely.

"Is that true?» The woman nodded and started typing on a keyboard.

It took a few seconds, but the lady was apparently done.

She looked up from it and stood from her desk," Yes...

Why?" "My father wants me to do a DNA test to make sure my two sisters are his,"Elijah explained, still smiling

gently.

Shocked at the family tea he just spilled, the nurse gave a nervous smile and said, "I see.

Please follow me this way, sir." "Thanks," Elijah said as she left from behind the desk.

Quietly, she led him back down a hallway, passing more doors before stopping by the one marked, "Dr.

Dolan." Then she gave a gentle knock on the door before pushing it open.

A middle-aged woman sat at a desk, looking over some papers in front of her.

Her blonde hair was tied up neatly into a bun, and her glasses rested upon the bridge of her nose.

"Doctor Dolan," The receptionist greeted as she gestured for them to come inside, "These gentlemen are here

regarding a DNA test." A faint smile madeit across the doctor's face as she nodded, mumbling, "Please sit."

After Elijah and Rick took seats across from her and the receptionist left, the doctor turned her head to look at

them and asked, "What's the issue?" CA (CT) "I need to know if these two hairs are biologically related to

these hair strings," Elijah explained as he pulled the three bags out of his pocket.

One label, "A," the other, "C," and the last,"J" and Elijah continued, "I want to know if A and Care J's

biological daughters." Aftera brief pause from the doctor, she smiled faintly and said, "Okay.

Give us four business days, and we will have your results."

Every time Peach types a paragraph on her computer, she would eye her phone as her cousin'swords

replayed in her head, and yet, she refused to call Elijah, although her emotions bugged her to do so.

Finally, when she managed to finish typing the report in front of her on the computer, she restedback in

her seat, and then her office door opened.

Calmly, she stared at her secretary as she walked in, and Peach saw the hesitation on her face,

causing her to ask, "Is there something wrong, Dell?" "Umm,one Mr.

Gordon called just now, claiming that your uncle wanted him to invest in this company beforeit got

turned over to you, and now, he wants to meet you to discuss where they both left their conversation."

"I see...

I will discuss it with my husband when he gets back to the company, and then give you my reply."

Peach said calmly with a small smile.

A look of confusion and a bit of hesitation settled on Dell's face as she held back her words for a

second,but then she said, "But, boss...

Your husband is back at the company...

Um, he arrived a couple of minutes ago and is in the west wing office." "Really?" Peach mumbled,

concernedthat Elijah didn't tell her that he was back.

When Dell nodded, Peach immediately grabbed her phone and headed out of her office.

A moment later, when she reached the west wing office door, she stopped, took a moment to breathe,

and then slowly turned the knob, pushing thedoor open.

As she stepped into the room, her expression softened, and she silently giggled, watching Elijah's head

resting on top of the desk, sleeping soundly.

Trying to be as still as possible, she crept toward him, and when she finally got closer to him, she

stopped, staring at his face with a hintof adoration in her gaze.

"Gosh, you are so freaking hot." Peach whispered, staring at his calm resting face.

Her body immediately came to a standstill when Elijah raised his gaze, locking eyes with her, and a

half-smile defined his lips.

Her lashes suddenly began fluttering uncontrollably when he whispered in a husky, "Well, well, look

who has gotten bolder..." Words vanished fromher thoughts, and she was left blankly staring at him like

some lovesick puppy.

After sitting up, Elijah's eyes settled on his phone, and he turned his gaze on Peach when

shewhispered, "Larry told me what happened with your cousin earlier." The room grew still as they

stared at each other without breaking eye contact, and the silence grew louder and louder.

"Umm," Peach whispered beneath her breath, smiling softly.

"When Tyson told me what you did, and I realized what you had to do to get me home safely, I wanted

to kiss you so bad." Letting out a harsh breath, Elijah woke from his seat, walked over to her, and took

her hands in his, not losing sight of her gaze.

"Say that again," Elijah said with the utmost seriousness as he studied her darting eyes.

When Peach didn't answer, he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her towards him, pressing her

against his firm chest.

When Elijah's hands slowly stroked down her waist and his palm rested on her ass, Peach swallowed,

noticing theseductive look in his eyes.

Leaning in towards her ear, Elijah grabbed her cheek, squeezed them, and whispered, "I want to hear

you say it louder.""l wanted to kiss you, Elijah..." Peach whispered, pausing when she felt his lips

against her neck.

Then he raised her, sitting her on the desk and resting his body between her parted legs, placing his

hands on both sides of her hips.

"Say it again like you mean every word." He growled in an even deeper voice than before.

"I want to kiss you so bad!" Peach breathed as she placed her hands on his broad shoulders, and then

wrapped her legs aroundhis waist.

A smile tugged on his lips as she leaned in closer before claiming her mouth in a heated kiss, as Elijah

pressed her further onto the desk.

Drunk with feelings, Peach couldn't help but let out soft moans, as she ran her fingersthrough his hair, and

Elijah pulled away after a few moments, grinning down at her before leaning forward and capturing her lips

again.

The sound of the doorbell aggressively going off made Butler Gray sigh as he strolled down the hallway to get

to the door.

The moment he opened it, Rebecca shoved the old man aside, rushing into the hallway with Emma and the

other ladies following her.

A groan from the pain his back felt hitting the wall left Butler Gray's lips, and none of the ladies seemed to care

asthey raced through the corridor, a Hearing the footsteps coming toward the living room, Madam Jewel

eagerly looked toward the doorway.

A short while later, a sigh of relief left her lips when she saw Cora, and then Amelia, Emma, Martha, Patricia,

Evelyn, Rebecca, and Iris, and then she mumbled,"Where is Melina?" "I am done with your family?!" Iris

suddenly yelled as she glared at the old woman.

"My dear...

I know what you went through yesterday and today was hard and traumatic for you..." Madame Jewel said

slowly.

"But-" "But I am divorcing Josh! I married your grandson thinking this family was powerful.

But you are all useless-

worthless! It's shameful how a mighty family like you guys are sinking slowly to the bottom because of one

man thatyou deem a lowlife, and I don't want to be on that boat when it sinks!" "Iris," "Your family anger the

wrong guy, and my father and I have suffered because of your incompetence to take care of your mess! But

this will be the last time my family gets dragged into your shit! I am going home, and your grandson will receive

the divorce paper from my lawyer!" "Iris, please..." Like Madam Jewel's pleads meant nothing, Iris just scoffed

and shook her head before turning around and leaving the living room.

"Josh is going to partly blame you for this," Patricia mumbled worryingly, eyeing her mother-in-law.

1 "Where is my daughter?" Martha blurted out, darting her gaze around the room to find Melina.

"Can you all just shut up!" Madam Jewel screamed at her two daughters-in-law.

For a moment, Amelia eyed her sister, and then she looked at her mother's stressed expression and asked,

"So, does this mean we shouldn't tellyou that Elijah cut a couple of strings from Cora and my hair?" 2 "He did

what?!!" Madam Jewel shrieked, looking directly into her oldest daughter's face with wide eyes and trembling

lips.

Like her world had come crashing down, she collapsed onto the couch next to the fireplace, her body shaking

violently.

"What the hell did Jacob say to him last night?" She mumbled, clenching her fists tightly until white knuckles

emerged.

' That fool!" "Wait, Elijah knows about Jacob?" Amelia cried, her brows furrowed in confusion.
