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 no words came out because she was in disbelief, and it was surprising, a big shock for almost 

everyone in the room except Elijah, Ryan, and Matt. 

With trembling hands, one of the five officers took out the cuff key, reached for Elijah’s wrists, and uncuffed him without hesitation. 

“Mr. Bamford,” Elmer mumbled, finally getting over his shock and staring at the chief in disbelief, “what brings you here?” 

A scowl crossed the chief’s face, but when he turned to meet Elmer’s eyes, a look of raw shock instantly clouded his expression to see Elmer’s face with bloodshot red eyes and a swollen jaw. A small cut in his hairline was visible on his left eyebrow. 

‘Wow!’ Mr. Bamford thought to himself, feeling more intrigued to find out what exactly happened to get Elmer messed up like that. 

Looking back at Elijah, the chief drew a deep breath and asked, “What happened here exactly? 

Before Elijah could move his lips to speak, Elmer penetrated the conversation and blurted out, “That savage being attacked me and ruined my face… Also, the thug behind him beat up my security! You should arrest them both for this.” 

“Mr. Hayes, can you please quiet down and wait for your turn?” Mr. Bamford said, glaring at Elmer, crossing his arms over his chest. 

The shock that those words brought to Elmer’s brain caused his mouth to fall open as he glanced at Elijah with wide eyes before darting his eyes around in embarrassment, not knowing why a Hayes like himself has become lesser in the sight of the law than a lowlife thug.
