Read The Marvelous Elijah’s Return By Rever Chapter 90 – 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 har minda 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 the hell, Natalie!!”

His swollen jaw hurting like hell, Elmer groaned in agony, and Elijah stopped in his steps, and looked back at him, saying, “Don’t worry, I will help you call them.”

A frown crossed Elmer’s face as he looked

back at Natalie and cried, “It’s 999… Why are you su-ch a beauty wi-th no bra-in!”

Calmly, Elijah scrolled through his phone, stopping at Bamford’s number, and then he rang it.

After the second ring, the chief constable finally accepted the call and said, “Good afternoon, Elijah. How can I assist you?”

“I need you to help me get rid of a madman off my wife’s property.” Elijah casually replied without hesitating as he looked down at Elmer, who snorted to hear Elijah call him, “A madman.”

“What happened? Is she okay?”

“She is.”

“Okay, where are you guys? My men and I are coming to you guys.”

Meeting Elmer’s mad eyes, Elijah’s lips twitched in a small smile, and Elmer immediately saw the mockery in his eyes, and he ignored his pain and shouted, “I will fuck you up, Elijah! You think you know what I am capable of!! I will hurt all of you! You are all gonna wish you had never been born, you sons of bitches!”

With a half-smirk, Elijah focused back on the call, saying, “He’s getting more crazy. Can you please hurry up and come to Investistic Co?”

“That’s… That’s Elmer Hayes’ company …” Mr. Bamford stuttered in astonishment.

“Yes, well, it’s not his anymore and he’s refusing to leave and got violent with my wife.”

“Her uncle?”

Scowling at Elijah’s remark, Elmer shouted, exposing the opening of his bloody mouth, two broken teeth, and bruised tongue, “Who’s the piece of shit on the other side of that call, Elijah, Huh?! … Violent with your wife?! Haha, she’s my damn step-niece. I can put my hands on her if she’s being a little bitch!”

When Peach saw Elijah clutching his fist again, she knew he was really going to beat Elmer into humbleness, and since she knew her family’s pride spirit, she rushed for Elijah, hugging his waist without saying a word, slid her palm down his arm until he opened his fist, allowing her fingers to lace with his.

“We are on our way and will be there in the next ten minutes,” Bamford said before Elijah ended the call.

“The police are on their way here, boss!”

Natalie shouted, almost trumpeting the fact that she finally got it done.

“Your ass is sleeping in prison for assaulting me!” Elmer yelled out as he spits another bloody saliva on the black marble tile.

Squeezing her husband’s hand, Peach felt a dull ache in her heart as she whispered, “Let me see your nose.”

With a sigh, Elijah tore his attention off Elmer and turned around to gaze into her eyes, a frown settled on her face at the dry bloodstain on his skin.

In concern, she reached out her fingers to touch his face, but paused at the thought of hurting him, and yet, as she was about to lower her hand, Elijah grabbed her wrist, brought it to his lips, and kissed her palm before leaning his head into her touch touch.

“Does it hurt?” Peach asked softly, pouting at the sight of his bruised nostril.

For a second, Elijah frowned deeply, trying to hold her oaze and then he trying to hold her gaze, and then he smiled at her sweetly as her face grew red from her silent sob, sniffing softly at a fast pace as she tried to think about how to get him out of the cuffs.

“Drop all the charges against my husband … and Matt too, and I will give you fifty percent share in the company!” Peach desperately shouted at her step-uncle, her tears still falling uncontrollably and helplessly.

The sight of her misery made Elmer cocky, and a scoff escaped his throat as he stared directly at her and laughed, saying, “Half of it?! Are you shitty me, Niece? I want it all! You will have to turn the will back in my name and stay the hell away from this place!”

Sniffing back her snot Peach looked at Elijah, searching his unreadable eyes, and when he said nothing, she looked back at Elmer and shouted, “Fine! I am fine with that! Now, tell them to take off the cuffs… Please!!”

‘You love me that much?’ Elijah thought, looking at his wife choking on her tears, her pleading eyes, and his heart broke, and he couldn’t deny it either.

The ego of Elmer only seemed to grow with every tear that fell from Peach’s eyes, and he kept smiling smugly at her.

“You want the company… I want my husband back, so stop smiling, and let’s do this already.” Peach said through clenched teeth, glaring hatefully at Elmer.

“I was born years before your mother even pushed you into this world…. Elijah will stay in cuffs and jail until everything about this transaction is legalized, and

that’s final.” Elmer said with his head held high.

“No… no, you don’t understand. I don’t want him in that place… Don’t-”

(That’s not my concern, Peachy.”

Staring at their boss, Matt and Ryan glared at his calm eyes, not knowing how to interfere because he wasn’t saying anything or giving them any reaction, and the only thought on both their minds was, ‘What are you doing boss.’

“Take him away,” Elmer commanded the officers with a smug grin.

As they were about to do as he said, the loud sound of police cars roared into the lobby and confusion settled on Elmer, the other officers, and the employee’s faces, including Peach, Matt, and Ryan.

Elijah simply looked over at Elmer, let his eyes with a death stare, and lently mouthed out, “My turn.”
