The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

Chapter 60

Why is the will?

Seeing how Madam Jewells grip on Peach’s hand was not causing her any pain, Elijah held back his desire to interfere, knowing that the situation wasn’t that threatening.

“There is more to tonight, so I am hoping that you can stay a bit longer,” Madam Jewel said calmly, her hand loosening its grip against Peach’s wrist, allowing Peach to pull her hand away as she lowered her head slightly to avoid anyone noticing how uncomfortable she was. A frown settled on Elijah’s face because he could tell from Madam Jewel’s words that she had something up her sleeve, her tone and expression had him suspicious of what exactly she meant

“But,” Peach whispered, darting her gaze to meet Elijah’s eyes, feeling hesitant to agree

Trust wasn’t something she wanted to give to Madam Jewel and her family, knowing too well the danger of doing so since Madam Jewel had always been crafty and manipulative with whatever she did, and she had never hesitated to use whatever means available to her.

“I would love to_but we both knowalter uncle Tommy’s last visit, my mother’s health has been declining” Peach replied softly, fiddling with her fingers and trying hard not to break character. “I had to leave her home to come to pay my respect to grandpa… but I can’t stay long, after all, we only have each other to rely on.”

Her words woke faint mumbling among some of the guests. It’s not like it was a secret about how Albert Hayes descended from power after his father’s death and the way he and his family were treated terribly by the Hayeses over the years.

A nervous look settled on Madam sewel’s face as she tried not to scoff at Peach and say something insensitive in front of so many people when she gave her a half smile.

Becoming a bit of a nuisance to the Hayes so that they would allow her to leave this suffocating party was Peach’s first motive because she didn’t want to stay for whatever reason Madam Jewel was planning

Suddenly, Madam Jewel gently rested her palms on Peach’s cheeks, causing her to stiffen in fear, and said softly in an almost pleading tone, “You poor thing.- Growing up must have been hard on you, hasn’t it?”

“Mother is going to get what she wants one way or another, and she isn’t going to let Peach leave until she gets whatever she wants,” Tommy replied, raising the champagne glass to his lipa he vnnd
