The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

Chapter 88

Help

Help!

Gazing intensely into the bathroom mirror, Elijah reached for his toothbrush but then paused as a memory of Lawyers Meeks‘ words kept replaying in his head, the looks on his face when he said those words, and the way his body reacted a bit nervously to question about the will.

Immediately, he grabbed his phone off the sink and scrolled for Ryan‘s number until he got to it, dialing it.

After ringing his number, the call got answered and Ryan‘s voice popped up through the speaker, “Good morning, Boss...”

“I need us to discuss something important later on today, and I also need Matt and you this morning,” Elijah said as he watched the bathroom door reflection in the mirror slowly pushed open, and Peach popped her head inside.

“Are we coming for the same reasons, or–”

“Something like that, but there‘s more I need to pick your brains about.”

“I am getting Matt, and we are on our way.”

“Good, we will wait on you guys before we leave, so be here by nine.”

Wondering who her husband was talking to so seriously at seven in the morning, Peach reached her hands around his waist and kissed his bare back, resting her head flat against his warm skin.

“Okay, boss, we will be there before that hour,” Ryan‘s voice echoed into Elijah‘s ear before he ended the call a few seconds later.

Slowly, he turned around, and Peach took a step back to meet his eyes, but he suddenly picked her off the tiles by her waist and sat her on the counter, standing between her thighs and caging her in the middle of his hands.

“Morning, darling,” Elijah said, his voice deep and husky from sleepiness.

“Mor–ning...” Peach responded softly, as she slowly raised one hand and brushed some strands of hair from his forehead. “Something wrong?”

“You can say that... I need Ryan‘s import on your grandfather‘s will,”

“Did you find something wrong with it,”

“No, it‘s not the will in general, it‘s something else.”

A look of confusion appeared on Peach‘s face, and she lowered her gaze to meet the floor, thinking extremely hard, even though she had no idea what her husband was implying.
