The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

Chapter 172

Chapter 172

Where is she?

The dining table was quiet as Mr. Williams sat with his daughter–in –law, his son, and Dan, and after a while, Vance asked his father,” So, he‘s coming here today?”

“Yes,” Dr. Williams said, staring intensely at his food.

After a long silence, Julie gazed at him and then said, “Do you think he‘s about to make his final move?”

“If he is, then I will have to come clean… He has done so much for us and weakened Jewel so much that I think it‘s safe now…” Mr. William mumbled, lifting his head to stare at his son.

“What are you not telling us, father?” Vance asked, crossing his arms over his chest.

Silence settled in the room and then Mr. Williams whispered, “I did it to protect your cousin.”

“Uncle Elijah!!” Dan‘s sudden shout made the three of them turn their heads to stare at the dining room doorway to see Elijah walking into the room.

“Elijah… I mean, Mr. Maxwell…” Vance said, looking slightly nervous, knowing that a lot of things had come to light in the media about Elijah since the first time they met.

Jumping from his chair, Dan rushed for Elijah, hugging his leg, and then lifted his hands, beaming cutely.

“Hey, little guy…” Elijah said as he picked up Dan from the ground, holding him in his arms.

“Welcome, Mr. Maxwell,” Julie said politely.

Nodding at him, Elijah sat at the table and then smiled when she asked, “Should I make a plate for?”

“Thanks. But my wife and I had already had breakfast before I got here. So, I am full.” Elijah said, and then he swayed his gaze to Dr. William.

Immediately, Elijah locked eyes with him, and then he said, “I‘m full… Let‘s talk in the living room.”

Taking his sight off Dr. William, Elijah looked down at Dan and said, “Hey, little guy… Uncle Elijah will be right back, okay?”

When Dan nodded with a big smile, Elijah set him back in his chair and then walked out of the living room with Dr. Williams.

A moment later, the two were seated in the living room and Elijah studied the doctor for a while and then said, “Meeks is alive, and is healing greatly in the ICU.”

“Lawyer Meeks?!” Dr. William exclaimed, raising his eyebrows in surprise.

“He called me a while back. Apparently, his accident was also caused by Jewel. But I flew him out of Syldavia and he‘s now healing perfectly from his spine injury at the hospital. And he has agreed to testify against Jewel on my behalf.”
