William even mentioned Jennifer a lot while delivering his speech.

Anyone who could read between the lines would know that he was very satisfied with Jennifer and wanted her as his daughter-in-law.

Naturally, Jennifer was overjoyed when she heard William declaring his approval of her.

Minerva shook her head when she saw the gleeful smile on Jennifer’s face.

“I know you don’t like to hear me say this, Jennifer, but winning Old Mr. Lombard’s heart over doesn’t mean anything unless Mr. Tristan likes you.”

However, her advice fell on deaf ears as Jennifer couldn’t care less about that.

“I’ll be able to keep making progress with Tristan as long as I have Old Mr. Lombard’s support.”

I’ll be sure to show Tristan that Sophie isn’t worthy of being with him!

Those who heard William’s words understood full well what he meant and were staring at Sophie with mocking looks in their eyes.

When it was time to present the gifts, Jennifer presented William with a very beautiful diamond. It was a one-of-a-kind item that couldn’t be purchased anywhere.

Sure enough, William was very pleased with how much effort she had put into the gift.

“Thank you very much for this wonderful gift, Jennifer. I don’t think anyone else cares this much about me, so I really hope you will be a part of this family.”

Jennifer simply kept quiet and flashed him a gentle smile in response.

“See? Old Mr. Lombard really likes Jennifer! It looks like she has completely won his heart over!”

“Exactly! Given Sophie’s reputation, I doubt she’d even qualify to marry into a wealthy family, let alone the Lombard family! Mr. Tristan is probably just fooling around with her or something. There’s no way he’ll ever marry her!”

“I know, right? Still, she does look quite pretty, though. Maybe I could try to—”
