The Marvelous Elijah's Return

Read The Marvelous Elijah’s Return by Rever Chapter 150 Elijah Maxwell 

The hospital was so quiet at midnight as Cora walked down the hallway, and the closer she got to Elijah‘s room, she could hear her heart pounding loudly in her ears, seeing all the men standing in line, guarding the room. 

‘Mother didn‘t tell me that this place was going to be swamped with his bodyguards... I feel like I am about to assassinate a president or something.‘ Cora mumbled in her head, adjusting the mask on her face to make sure no one recognized her. When she got to the door, she hesitated, wondering if any of them were going to stop her. But when no one said a word, she pushed the door open, walking calmly into the room, suppressing the nervous feeling in the pit of her stomach. 

After she shut the door behind her, she turned to see Elijah lying on his back, his face away from her, directed at the right wall, and the pillows that his head wasn‘t resting on, blocking his face from her view. 

Knowing time was not on her side, she walked over to the bedside, focusing only on his hand with the intent to get it done quickly so she could be out before the side effect of the drugs kicked into his body once she injected him. ‘What‘s a waste of money, hiring all these fools just to die in such a simple way.‘ Cora laughed in her head, resting a kit down, and taking an injection out of it. ‘Damn... Why is it so quiet?‘ Quickly, she rubbed cotton on his hand, picking a random vein on the back of his hand, and slowly, she inserted the needle into his skin. But before she could sink it deep, her heart jumped in her chest when he suddenly woke up, grabbing her hand. Immediately, she went into the state of “flight or fight,” and she fought, trying to push it into his vein hastily, but he was faster in yanking it out of his skin. 

Desperate to finish what she had started, Cora rushed for another injection from the kit, blocking out his voice and not paying attention to his face but his torso. 

Not wanting to give up, she jumped him, rushed into the bed, and she and he got into a struggle over the new syringe, wrestling on the sheets until he managed to grab her wrist and flip her over his legs, straddling her waist, and before she could stab his neck with the needle, using her free hand, he held her other wrist, twisting it toward her and puncturing the syringe into her neck, breathing heavily as she stared down wide–eyed at him. 

“You are not Elijah,” Cora whispered, finally meeting his eyes as he let go of her hand. “Who are you? What have you done?” Even though Elijah and the guys over her had a lot of similarities, when he got off her and Cora took a hard look at him, she could see that he was definitely not Elijah. 

Slowly, she yanked the syringe out of her neck, seeing that it was empty, and she immediately scrambled off the bed, moving back slowly, “No, no, no... What did you do?” 

The guy took out a walkie–talkie and spoke into it, saying, “Chief, we have one suspect. A female... I haven‘t seen her face yet because she‘s wearing a mask. But she tried to stab me with a syringe.”
