The Marvelous Elijah's Return novel Chapter 123

Read The Marvelous Elijah’s Return By Rever Chapter 123 – Men in Black The sound of the door opening drew Peach’s attention, and she held her breath as she stared at Jacob entering the room, and immediately, she noticed the blood on his knuckles, causing her heart to clench in worry.

“Get up, and don’t say a word, or else I will hurt you, and your husband has my hand tied from doing that, so don’t dare push my buttons,” Jacob growled, and with a sigh. Even though she was hesitant, Peach slowly stood from her seat and sealed her lips, although she wanted to ask for her ring.

“Walk,” Jacob commanded, and he grabbed her wrist tightly, making her gasp slightly as he led her out of the room. All his men had this disappointed look on their faces as he led her down the corridor, and Peach dared not look at any of them a****s he obediently followed him.

When they reached a black ford pickup, he opened the front door, enraged at his cord and hating every moment of the shift in the game and obeying Elijah.

“Get in,” Jacob uttered, finally letting go of her wrist. Pouting, she looked down at her skin and the redness where she had been gripped, before turning to face him once more. “Get in,” Jacob repeated firmly, glaring at her.

With a huff, Peach stepped into the truck, and he slammed the door shut before walking around to the driver’s side and getting in. They drove in silence for a while, and then Jacob eyed Peach, noticing that he had grabbed her way too hard and her skin was slightly bruised.

“What the f****k?!” Jacob roared angrily, looking at her furiously. “How the hell can your body be so delicate?!” A confused look settled on Peach’s face, not knowing why he looked so freak out over a skin bruise since she was glad that he didn’t cause more damage to her body than that.

“If your so‐called husband asked you, you didn’t get that from me…! Do you understand?!” Jacob snarled, staring at her.

“Do you hear me?!” Why he suddenly looked so nervous when he spoke of Elijah had Peach confused, but she still said nothing, because she couldn’t risk saying anything to anger him further.

“Yes… You didn’t bruise my hand,” She whispered, finally speaking after almost a moment of silent driving. After a couple of hours’ drive, as they were getting closer to the hotel, Jacob suddenly pulled over, glared at Peach, and said, “Get out.

You can walk from here. Your husband knows that you are going back to him.” Not even hesitating, Peach pushed the door open, stepped out onto the curb, and immediately froze when she saw Jacob put the car in gear and drove off at full speed. In shock, she watched until Jacob turned a corner, and was gone.

A small sigh left her lips as she started walking towards the hotel, feeling relieved that she got to leave without being harmed.

When she arrived back at the hotel, she stopped in her steps as a group of men in black suits got out of a couple of SUVs and then Larry smiled at her, but Peach knew none of them, and fear slowly took over her senses. ‘Not again,’ Peach thought frantically as they all started coming towards her.’

Please no…? “Good evening, Madam,” Larry said with a bow, causing the other men to do the same.

“Welcome back,” Immediately, Peach froze, confused by his words. Her mind raced, trying to figure out what the heck was going on.

When Larry raised his head, he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, dialing Elijah’s number.

The quietness in the kitchen was deadly as Madam Jewel nervously stared at Elijah’s unreadable expression because even though he was restless inside, he did not want to give her the pleasure of seeing his stress.

“When Peach gets here, how am I going to be sure that you will keep your end of the deal?” Madam Jewel asked, her eyes never leaving Elijah. “After my wife gets here, I will let you know then,” Elijah responded in an annoyed tone, which earned him another glare from Madam Jewel.

She was growing impatient, not knowing what was going on in his head, and yet, all she could do was be quiet and wait. The sudden sound of Elijah’s ringtone made him grab his phone, glancing at the caller id before answering it. “Larry,” Elijah said.
