“I see,” William commented upon Sarah’s explanation.

Many of their acquaintances were typically enrolled in famous universities. However, for people like them, who were in the upper echelons of society, being studious was a far less useful trait than developing new connections.

William continued questioning Sophie about the Tanner family, and the latter answered all his questions calmly and gracefully.

Her elegance was right up William’s alley regarding his preference for a daughter-in-law.

Alas, it’s a shame her family background isn’t ideal. It’s not a match for our Tristan at all.

Sophie was no fool, to begin with. She immediately sensed William’s disapproval of her.

Nonetheless, he was Tristan’s father, and she wisely kept mum about her postulations.

After their meal, Sophie handed the gift she had prepared to William, who did not even spare the item a glance.

Tristan was understandably upset about his father’s behavior.

He did not want to blow up in front of Sophie and swallowed his discontent. Be that as it may, he secretly held her hand to reassure her that he was on her side no matter what.

His gesture also told her that everyone else’s opinions did not and would not sway his feelings for her.

Sophie shot him a grateful smile.

In truth, she was hardly bothered by William’s actions. Nothing much could fluster her, considering what she had experienced to get to where she was today.

William largely maintained a gentlemanly approach to the meeting.

Despite his dissatisfaction with his son’s girlfriend, he never voiced his feelings openly. While it was far from a cheerful meeting, the atmosphere was spared from becoming too awkward.

When William noticed his son was more focused on refilling Sophie’s plate than his own, he could not help but frown. What happened to my revered and formidable son?

After the meal ended, they exchanged pleasantries before Sarah sent William home.

“Dad, are you unhappy with Sophie or something?” His behavior had put something of a downer on everyone’s mood.
