3/4 Chapter 7 For some reason, even though she had only received a text message and hadnt heard his voice yet, Lilyanas heart was still beating fast. Afraid that they were waiting anxiously, she quickly replied. I knew it, Uncle, no, Mr. There is one more thing I want to inform you, our marital home… was smashed. After a long silence, he only replied with one message. Was it my three nephews who did it? Lilyana remained silent and then replied with a yes. He replied with only five words, but it instantly calmed her heart. In the future, I will be there. Looking at these three words, Lilyanas eyes turned slightly red. Well, in the future life, he was always there. The next day, the Marquez family hosted a welcome banquet. On the third day, as soon as Lilyana walked in, she saw the Marquez familys three brothers surrounding Violet. Violet, dont be afraid. Although Uncle looks cold, he doesnt eat people, so theres no need to be so nervous. Violets eyes drooped slightly. Her forehead still sweaty with nervousness. But Im scared. This is my first time meeting Uncle with all of you. Will Uncle… will he like me? Of course, anyone who sees you, no matter who it is, would definitely like you because you are so nice. Dont worry, arent we here? You dont have to be afraid when you see your elders. Just hide behind us if theres anything. With the comfort of the three scions, Violet finally took a deep breath and nodded. I will definitely leave a good impression on Uncle! Watching her with the aroma of tea in her cup, Lilyana smiled and found her seat to sit down. Chapter 7 1/4 As soon as he saw her coming, Brandens face instantly turned cold. You used to come diligently, knowing that the wedding was just a few days away, and that you were going to marry into the Marquez family. You were in a hurry to please Uncle, werent you? Braxton sneered and said, Its just a pity that no matter how hard you try to please us, no matter who you marry among us, there wont be any good days after marriage. Havent you heard that a forced melon is not sweet? Lilyana remained calm and said lightly, I have said many times that my marriage partner is not any of you. Deven was extremely impatient and interrupted her directly, saying, How many times have you said this? Are there no other tricks to play today? Wasnt the last lesson enough? She did not argue back, her heart was calm, she just looked towards the door. No matter how she explained, they would not believe it anyway. Since thats the case, let their respected Uncle announce it to them personally. She didnt want to provoke them anymore, but unfortunately Violet approached her with a bowl of 7 soup, Lilyana, I remember you loved this winter melon meatball soup the most. You couldnt reach it, let me help you. The steaming soup was poured into a bowl, but when it was being handed to Lilyana, the person deliberately let go. Immediately after, a large bowl of scalding hot soup was poured all over Lilyana. The skin exposed outside came into contact with the hot soup, instantly turning red. Violet, what were you doing?! Branden immediately held Violet in his arms and said, Why are you making such a loud noise? Violet didnt mean to do it on purpose. Why do you have to overreact? Violet kindly served you the soup, and it spilled, but it wasnt too hot. Why did you scold her? Cant you see that shes already crying? Braxton immediately nervously wiped away Violets tears. Deven raised his voice, Lilyana, you scared Violet. Apologize to her! Did she apologize to Violet? 2/4 Victim, apologize to the perpetrator?! Lilyanas mind was buzzing, just as she was about to retort, the door. It swung open with a bang! The light shone through as a well-dressed man walked in, under the gaze of everyone. But it wasnt Graham. But rather his assistant. Sorry for keeping you all waiting. Graham had some urgent matters to attend to, so his return trip had to be postponed for a few days. Please accept our apologies. As the head of the Marquez family, Grahams itinerary was unquestionable to everyone, and they all expressed their understanding. At the same time, the assistant scanned the crowd and then walked straight towards Lilyana. When facing Lilyana, the assistants distant attitude instantly softened. Fitzgerald, please come with me.
