Life After Divorce: The Rise Of Elijah Crawford Chapter 254
The door opened, and Elijah went in with Cleo.“Elijah? Is everything fine? I heard so many noises,” the nurse ranted as soon as they stepped in.“Everything's fine.” Elijah tried to calm her as Cleo moved closer to his unconscious mother. “Who is—” her words trailed as she fully saw Cleo. “Uhmm, that's the girl that came in the other day, go see your mother with Tobias.”“That's her,” Elijah said.“Oh.”Cleo smiled as she watched the unconscious woman. She wondered if Elijah could feel her fading away. If he did, he acted very calmly about it.That was why she couldn't afford to express sadness. She believed in him. He was going to piece it together before her lifeline on earth was exhausted.She grabbed her hand and kissed it. In the old days, they said the kiss of the beauty goddess prompted good health. She hoped that it could still be applied now.Satisfied with everything she had seen and done, she turned around to face the fidgeting nurse. “Thank you for taking care of her. No

Colin Trust ended the call and returned his attention to his guest. “I just talked to Elijah. I'm sure he was shocked I called him.”“What did he say?” Dr Hill asked.“After you tell me what the deal with you and Elijah is.”The doctor sighed. He didn't believe he would ever ask Colin for help. But it was looking like he had lost his grip on Elijah.His connection to him was based on the fact he knew the last two herbs that were needed. That information he planned on giving out in exchange for something else.Now that it looked like he had lost that leverage, he was desperate.“Fine, I'll tell you,” he leaned forward in his chair, as Colin took one across him. “His mother is still very much alive. Sure she was in the building when it caught fire, but she managed to escape. At least up until just behind the building.”“What do you mean she escaped?” Colin's forehead creased as he regarded the doctor.“I thought so before. But then I realized she was simply not the kind of woman to leav

“Where are you?” Elijah asked as he entered the restaurant. With the phone tucked in his ear, he looked around the tables.“The last corner,” Rhonda said.He looked in that direction and saw a hand wave. “Gotcha.”Ending the call, he walked through the path, until he got to the last table where Rhonda was seated, waiting for him.There was no smile on her face as she nudged her face in acknowledgment of his presence. “You're here.”“I am,” he said, sliding into a seat. “You look beautiful.”“Thanks.”She was still mad, he could see. He wished there was a way he could make her smile again. If only he hadn't arrived with more bad news. But it was time she learned the truth.“How have you been?” He asked.His question brought back the memories of that night. Everything about it had pissed her off. In the end, she hadn't been able to enjoy the party her sister worked so hard to organize.Instead, she had buried herself in work. She was beginning to notice some patterns in the financial re

“Why won't you leave Rhonda alone?” Elijah questioned Asher who was munching on Rhonda's leftovers.“Because I like her?”“Why? Why do you like her? You've never liked anyone other than yourself. Your so called likeness for her would be detrimental to her because of how many people you've wronged. They'd target her to get to you, and you know it.”“Is that why you push Winnie away?” He casually asked.“What does Winnie have to do with our discussion?”“Because it's obvious you like her but you're too much of a coward to apply proper pressure to get what you want.” He shoved a chip into his mouth, and smiled sinisterly.“You're sick in the head, Asher. Leave Rhonda alone.”“I won't. I like her. Have always, and always will.”“No. You know what? I think you're going after her to piss me off. Be warned, Asher, you have nothing in common with her. She'll never accept you!” He rose to his feet, seething.“You pop blood vessels for no damn reason. Calm down, and let's talk about more import

“I think I forgot to bring some salt for purification. Do you think you could please get me some, John?” Elijah asked the man, because he wanted to be alone long enough to actually use his powers to heal William Carter’s heart.“Gotcha,” he said, and turned towards the door.When the door shut behind him, Elijah breathed out in relief, and proceeded with the real procedure. He took the gloves off so he could place his hand directly on the old man’s chest.The moment his bare hand touched his chest, the light in his ring came on. It started to glow more than usual. A scowl etched on his face at the surprising development. It was almost as if the ring was warning him about a danger ahead.“Or it’s just trying to trick you so you can let your guard down, and not go ahead to heal Mr Carter. If you prove everyone wrong and actually heal the man, it proves you’re able to control your powers, instead of it controlling you,” a voice in his head said.He nodded his head, and decided to proceed

Elijah pulled away from her, and took one last look at William Carter. He had returned to the way he was before he started the treatment.“I'm sorry,” he muttered, turning around.“If anything changes, call me,” Lexington said to Winnie.Before he turned to leave, Winnie walked up to him, and pulled him into a hug. “Thank you for bringing me home on time,” she whispered before pulling away.“Anything for You Winnie,” he said, and turned to meet the curious stare of Elijah.Without saying another word, they walked out of the house.As they got to the compound, Lexington turned to Elijah.“Did you drive here? If you do, I'll ask someone to bring your car. You're coming with me,” he said.“Why? I can drive myself,” he argued.“No you can't, and you know it. Do you even have any idea about the gravity of what you've just done? If I were you, I'll take the help I can get and not argue about it.”He walked to his car, and angrily entered into the driver's seat.Elijah sighed. Lexington was

Darius walked into a restaurant which had closed door rooms for private meetings with other individuals.After his encounter with Elijah that morning, he was looking to dominate another conversation.He was testy, and hoped that no one looked at him with a dirty eye. He couldn't stop himself from losing control.As he entered the room reserved for him, he was met with the man he wanted to see.The door closed behind them, as he sat at the chair across from the man.“You finally came,” Colin Trust said to the man who suddenly wanted to meet him in a private area, simply because he wanted his money in his bank.Not the one to turn down money, despite how shady the business seemed, he had decided to humor the stranger.He didn't know if what he was expecting to see was what was sitting before him, but he did know there was absolutely no way this man was poor.“Silver eyes. A rarity,” Darius cleared his throat and began.“It's a gift,” Colin said, a little bit stunned at how thick and vib

“No one is doing anything to Winnie,” Elijah insisted with a raised voice. “Whatever punishment it is, I’ll take it. But note this, absolutely nobody will touch a hair on Winnie’s body for as long as I live,” he said with a hint of finality.“And I agree. Why should Winnie have to suffer the consequences of anyone’s action? Even an action she didn’t choose for herself. It’s not her fault that she was born with a blood that entices the supernatural. It’s also not her fault that Elijah is in this situation. I suggest that she’s left out of this,” Lexington added.“Well isn’t that just the problem? So many of you are in love with the girl. I’m yet to see what’s so special about her. It also can’t be her beauty, when we have the literal goddess of beauty in our face. Well, this conversation might be happening with a different tone when Darius gets a hold of her,” Asher said.“Okay, first of all, don’t bring me into a conversation just to undermine another woman. The only reason you’re no
