The Marvelous Elijah's Return

Read The Marvelous Elijah’s Return by Rever Chapter 157- The real enemies 

Frowning slightly, Elijah knew that the voice belonged to Lawyer Meeks, and yet he was skeptical of the fact that he was alive. A part of him still could not believe it, but the rest of his logical mind seemed to think differently.

“How did you survive the fall?” Elijah asked.

After dealing with the Hayeses for so long, Elijah knew how tricky and treacherous the family can get to achieve their goals.

“I black out during the fall and the next thing I knew, I opened my eyes in a tiny room with this old lady and her daughter, and they had been helping me since then… I can not walk, Elijah. The impact of my body hitting the water with such force injured my spine. I need to get out of the country to seek treatment… If I keep hiding with no proper medical care care, I will die, for real.” Mr. Meeks spoke slowly and he sounded very weak.

“What happened that day… the evening the accident took place?”

“I want to see your face first… I want to explain things to you in person because I don’t trust a phone call.”

Silence settled on the line as Elijah processed what Mr. Meeks said, and then he asked, “What device are you using?”

“A smartphone,” Mr. Meeks said.

“Video call me.”

The call abruptly ended in Elijah’s ear, and he sighed in annoyance. But as he was about to put his phone back into his pocket, it started buzzing, and Elijah looked at the screen to see that he was getting an incoming video call.

Immediately, Elijah answered, and the video call connected to a small camera, and there, staring back at him was a man who should be a ghost.

“Send me your location. I will be back in Syldavia at night, but I am sending my men, Jerome and Matt, to pick you up, and take you somewhere safer.”

“Okay,” Mr. Meeks said.

After ending the call, Elijah drew a breath, knowing he hadn’t told Peach the truth yet, and now that this had surfaced, he was still hesitant to do so.

The dinner room was lively as Mrs. Maxwell told Peach and Mrs. Grace with a smile, saying, “I can’t wait to take you guys to Madam Elle’s book club tomorrow… Side note, she likes. bragging about her son’s marriage and her daughter-in-law to my face, and now that my daughter-in-law is here, I want to rub it in her face too.”
