We are too old for flirty games

A look of pure terror immediately appeared on Madam Jewel‘s face, and her hands were slightly shaking out of pure panic, she glanced around the area as she tried to look calm and not show any signs of weakness, which only caused a small grin to appear on Elijah‘s face.

Staring at her shaky gaze, he knew that his guess was right, that the will Peach got wasn‘t what her grandfather actually gave to her, and that Madam Jewel was hiding his original will, but in that instant, the only thought on his mind was,‘ Why?‘

People don‘t conceal a will and allegedly kill a lawyer over it if what is written on it is not damaging to them and their families. And that is exactly what Madam Jewel did.

Being Ninety–eight percent sure that there was something out there that the Hayes feared so much for Peach to see, Elijah‘s determination became even stronger and made him ask, “Where is the will, Jewel? Hand me it, and your son walks free with all charges dropped.”

Trying to snap herself out of the feeling Elijah‘s words left her with, Madam Jewel lifted her chin high, took in a deep breath, and replied firmly, “I don‘t know what you are talking about. What Peach has is what my husband gave her, and it‘s the same for my other grandchildren and my children.”

“I see,” Elijah stated emotionlessly, and then added, “We both know that that‘s a lie. So come talk to me when Elmer has served five years in prison... Right now your hope is still high...”.

As he turned on his heels to leave, Madam Jewel frowned and said, “Even if he gets life in prison, I will not give you the will, because there‘s no will to give...”

‘You said, ‘will not,‘ instead of ‘can not... That will do exist, and I will get my hands on it one way or another.’ Elijah thought to himself, glancing back at her before he continued walking away. “Hey, wait!” Madam Jewel called out after him, stopping him in his tracks, and he turned back, waiting for her to say something.

With her head held high, Madam Jewel spoke in a confident tone, “Two million dollars... that‘s my last offer.”

A smirk tugged at the corner of Elijah‘s mouth as he looked her in the eye, shook his head slightly, and then he walked away without uttering a single word.

Arrogant bastard!‘ Madam Jewel thought to herself, seething in anger.

A while later, when Elijah entered the office, Peach‘s gaze raised and she woke from her seat, approaching the front of the desk.

Why?” “To forget about the lawsuit against Elmer… But only a fool would settle for a crumb instead of the whole pie.” A look of disbelief passed across Peach‘s features and her mouth opened, but nothing came out since she was speechless that her husband would turn down two million dollars simply like
