Life After Divorce: The Rise Of Elijah Crawford Chapter 227
“I did some digging when I returned to Quantum. The very first time I saw Elijah at the Luxes business party, my curiosity, or shall I say interest was piqued,” he smiled.Nathan Luxe leaned in, trying to absorb every word. His palm tingled with the excitement of holding on to something that'd enable him to finally end Elijah.His son, Kingston, had his head all up in the clouds. He was one leg in, one leg out. Sure he wanted to hear the almighty secret Elijah was keeping, but he also wanted to leave the meeting as soon as possible.Tiana sipped her wine, and crossed her legs. Anticipation was rising by the second. She had an idea where this could possibly be headed to. That exact thought scared her a little. Too many consequences that could arise. Way too many.For William Carter, he just wants to get this tell all over with, so he could plan his next steps. His hand gripped his cane tightly, feeling a crippling anxiety in his chest.He couldn't afford a heart attack at this stage. T
Life After Divorce: The Rise Of Elijah Crawford Chapter 228
Winnie who had paid her grandfather a surprise visit had decided to go in through the backdoor.She had driven through the back, and had entered the house without sending anything off.Maybe it was because they didn't expect anyone to come into the back. She had only met one security official who gladly welcomed her in.She was tiptoeing to her grandfather's room when her ears caught Tiana Anderson's voice.She thought surely she was going crazy, until she diverted her legs towards the living room. Peeping, she found a very interesting circle in her father's living room. Now, with tears running down her face as she struggles to pull out her keys from her purse, her discovery tormented her.They had killed his entire family. Set his father's sweat on fire. The woman she had seen being rolled into his eyes had to be his mother in a vegetative state.Her body vibrated, as her purse kept slipping out of her hand and falling to the ground. With her body crouched, she wailed. The thought

“Winnie?” Elijah's brow knitted, as his hands covered her body.“I'm so sorry,” she repeated over and over again as she clung to him.He didn't have the slightest clue what she was going on about, but she needed him. Up until that moment, he hadn't realized just how much he also needed her.She remained in his arms for some solid minutes, before she finally pulled away.“You must have been so hurt,” her palm found its way to his cheeks. “All I did was stupidly push you, instead of trying to understand your side of the story. I'm sorry, Elijah.”He looked beyond her, and it was pitch black outside. There was no camera in sight, so he was quite certain no one was pulling a prank on him.“Do you want to come inside?” He asked, hoping to get an explanation for her strange behavior when they were alone.Alone because even before he turned, he knew he'd see Tobias, Snow, and the nurse.“Can I? Really? I don't know anymore.” She shook her head.“Common,” he stretched out his hand.Slowly, sh

“I can't believe we're still talking about murder, after everything we've put that family through,” William Carter hissed.“That family, or rather, the last remaining of that family will take us down if we don't put a permanent end to them. I agree with Dr Hill on this. We really should kill the bastard.”“No!” Tiana said.“What do you mean by, no?” Kingston was fast to ask.The meeting was boring him before, but things were actually picking up now. That was a real opportunity to kill Elijah.To get rid of the thorn in his flesh for life. They would be stupid not to go with the plan.“Do you think he hasn't told at least someone else who can help him enact revenge if he knows about us? With Elijah, we can see him. We can watch his moves, and even keep him under control. Imagine someone else we don't know. I'd rather keep my enemy close than get rid of him.”“I agree with Tiana,” Colin Trust said. “There's no point killing him when we still need a lot from him. Most importantly, the ri

John was pacing about, waiting for a doctor when his thoughts snapped.It suddenly occurred to him there was a doctor available.He stormed out of the room and went straight to the living room to fetch Dr Hill.As he burst into the living room, everyone present turned to look at him with curiosity in their eyes.“I need you,” he said to Dr Hill.“Me? Why?” He frowned, regarding John with curious eyes.“Sir Carter. He's— just come with me!’He turned about, and Dr Hill sprang to his feet.“I'd be right back,” he said to the crew, as he ran behind John.They entered Williams ' room to find him twisting in pain.“I think it's his heart!” John called.Dr Hill went straight beside him. He observed with his eyes carefully, before slowly lifting his hands up.“What are you doing?”He ignored the hysterical John and focused on the old man.Years and years of knowing him flashed before his eyes.As a boy, he had heard about William Carter from his father.The man who was going to revolutionize

“I want to stay, but I should leave. It's the right thing to do,” Winnie said as they separated.“Bullshit! I won't allow you to go out at this time of the night. You should sleep here tonight.”She was suddenly shy. Twisting her hands, she turned her head to the side. “Are you sure that's okay? I don't want to inconvenience you.”“You need to stop acting weird, Winnie. Nothing is going to change between us. You're making me feel horrible.”“Please don't—” she reached out to touch him, but paused in realization. “I'm doing too much.” She bit her lips, the self-awareness hitting her hard.“You can sleep on the bed. I'll sleep on the couch in the living room.”“Why?” She asked before he could take a step.As he brought his eyes back to her, he found her looking around.“What do you mean why?”“We've shared a bed before, Elijah. If truly you're okay with me, there's no reason we can't again.”“Uhmm you forgot the circumstances of that night.”“Oh, I remember,” her eyes remained on a dot

As John slammed the door shut, he was met with a barrage of questions from the exclusives.“What the fuck is going on?” Kingston hissed. “Why are the press here? Fuck! Our cars are in the parking lot. Do you think we'd be in the news too?” Nathan worried aloud.John was irritated. They were the most selfish and self-centered group he had ever seen.Worrying about being found by the press, when his boss was in a critical condition.“John, can I speak to you?” Colin asked more level-headed than the rest.He nodded, and they moved to a corner.“Is Sir Carter fine? What's going on?” He asked.Before he responded, he waited to hear a note of sincerity in his voice or see a hint in his eyes.“He has a slight health issue. Dr Hill took care of it already. He's now sleeping in his room.”“Oh. Will he be fine? Is there anything we can do?”“He will be fine. As for what you can do, please wait for the press to be cleared out, then you can leave. I'm sure the boss would love to be alone when he

She knew she wasn't supposed to kiss him back. Everything between them was too heavy to be playing house, but she couldn't help herself.How many nights had she dreamed of this? After that night in his arms, she had longed to be with him again.Now the opportunity had presented itself. She couldn't possibly let it pass, could she?“Can I?” She thought, suddenly remembering Laura Anderson's words.She stilled, and Elijah felt it and pulled away.“What is it?” He asked with concern in his voice as he stroked her cheeks.“We should stop,” she said.“Why?” “You kissed Rhonda. There's still something that should be explored between you two. I don't want to come in between anything.”He wanted to argue. To counter her claims. To tell her why that kiss had happened in the first place. But that would require telling her the entire truth.The night had seen enough truth to last for a while. Maybe some other times he'd be bold enough to confess.“You're right. I kissed Rhonda. It's wrong to ki
