His Heart Is Now Elsewhere novel Chapter 16

Chapter 8 

Lilyana had just followed, and the next second, the assistant performed a magic trick and produced a beautifully wrapped gift box. When opened, it revealed a dazzling diamond necklace. 

“Ms. Fitzgerald, this is a gift of apology from Mr. Graham. Mr. Graham worked tirelessly for a week without rest to complete all the tasks in order to rush back for the wedding. However, he fell ill as soon as he boarded the plane. We were really worried about his health and finally managed to persuade him to take a few days off to rest, so that he could appear at the wedding in the best possible condition. We hope you won’t blame him.” 

Lilyana naturally did not blame, shaking her head repeatedly. 

This marriage affair started because she suddenly changed her mind. He was willing to agree, and she was already overwhelmed with joy. 

Not to mention that I heard he nearly fell ill from overworking just to rush back for the wedding. 

Rather than whether he can come back, what she is more concerned about now is his health. 

Lilyana breathed a sigh of relief after learning that he was unharmed and only needed a few days of 

rest. 

Since Graham was not here, there was no need for Lilyana to attend the reception. 

After saying goodbye to her assistant, she turned around to leave, but was suddenly stopped by the Marquez brothers. 

“What were you just talking about with Uncle’s assistant?” Branden’s sharp eyes narrowed slightly as he scrutinized her. 

Seeing the gift box in her hands, Braxton instantly understood something. “You really never change, can’t please Uncle, even managed to please Uncle’s assistant.” 

“You haven’t apologized to Violet yet! Come back with us!” 

As Deven spoke, he tried to hold Lilyana’s hand, but she dodged him directly. 

She didn’t want to waste any more words with them, so she turned around and ka different path, quickly walking away. 

In the middle of the night, she was sleeping soundly when a sudden urgent ringing sound rang out. 

Hang up one call and another one comes, Lilyana impatiently answers, only to discover that the callers are actually the brothers from Branden, Braxton, and Deven’s circle.

As soon as the call connected, the person on the other end rudely said, “Lilyana, you were still sleeping, don’t you know that Branden, Braxton, and Deven got into a car accident and are in the hospital! Instead of going to visit them, you can still sleep?” 

This afternoon, she did hear rumors circulating in the circle that the three brothers participated in a life–or–death race to win the desired necklace for Violet, but the race car lost control and they got 

injured. 

But what does this have to do with her? 

“I didn’t go.” 

She coldly hung up the phone and blocked the numbers of their group of friends, without giving the other person any chance for a response. 

For several consecutive days, she stayed at home peacefully preparing for her wedding. 

Trying on wedding dresses, trying on engagement rings, and attending wedding ceremonies. 

As soon as the news reached the three brothers who had just been discharged from the hospital, the next second, Branden’s message came through. 

“Lilyana, I see that you didn’t take our previous conversation to heart. I said that a marriage alliance is possible, and I can give you the status, but no matter who you choose, none of us will attend the wedding. You are making such a fuss. I really don’t fear becoming the laughingstock of 

the whole city.”

gave you one last chance. Go to the north of the city and queue up to buy some red bean pastries from Donna’s Bakery, which Violet loves. Deliver them within twenty minutes. On the wedding day, we will consider it.” 

Seeing this self–righteous message, Lilyana almost burst out laughing. 

That red bean pastry shop alone required several hours of waiting in line. 

She had no intention of going to buy. 

However, she did have something to meet these three brothers. 

She went back to the room once, and when she came out again, she had three more boxes in her 

hands. 

As soon as I entered the compartment, Deven’s mocking voice came over. 

“Sure enough, you were still the shameless bootlicker, eagerly rushing over as soon as there was a

hint of sweetness,” 

Many people present were amused by his description and burst into laughter. 

Violet was being protected by the three brothers in the center. She slightly curled her lips and playfully tugged on Branden’s suit, saying, “Mr. Branden, I suddenly don’t want to eat red bean pastries anymore. I want to eat the cake from that bakery in the west of the city,” 

“Did you hear that? Violet wanted to eat cake. Hurry up and go buy it.” 

Lilyana coldly tugged at her lips and calmly said, holding the box, “I didn’t buy red bean pastries, 

let alone that cake.” 

The three brothers furrowed their brows simultaneously, and said in unison. 

“Didn’t buy? Then why did you come over here?” 

“Come and throw the garbage.” 

After speaking, she placed three boxes on the ground. 

Then, I picked up the topmost box and walked over to Branden, throwing the box directly at him. 

“Branden, you have been very interested in artificial intelligence in recent years. In order to 

understand you better and have more common topics with you, I have collected a lot of relevant information and also bought many latest developed products. From now on, I will no longer pay attention to anything related to you!” 

Then, she picked up the middle box and walked up to Braxton, following the same routine. 

“Braxton, you had trouble sleeping, often suffered from insomnia. In order t
