“Fine. Since you’re all so interested in Ms. Tanner’s gift, I shall open it and have a look.”

William wasn’t interested in Sophie’s gift, but he didn’t want to disappoint his guests.

Tristan narrowed his eyes as he observed everyone’s reactions.

They’re all waiting to laugh at Sophie!

The butler had no choice but to do as told and unwrap the gift.

Everyone burst out laughing when they saw what it was.

What the… Does Sophie not have any common sense? It’s fine if she chooses to gift Old Mr. Lombard something cheap, but why would she get him a counterfeit?

“We know that Tanner Group isn’t exactly a huge company, but you should at least gift Old Mr. Lombard something authentic! Do you really think we’re all so stupid that we can’t tell it’s a fake?” Minerva taunted her.

“I think you need to go out and see the world so you wouldn’t be so ignorant! You have no idea what you’re talking about!” Sophie snapped back at her with a frown.

I have no reason to be nice to these people! If they’re going to be rude to me, then I shall respond in kind!

“Do you even realize what that is? That’s a national treasure, Sophie! There’s no way you could possibly afford something like that!”

Sophie’s gift was a long-lost national treasure that everyone wanted, but nobody was able to find it.

There were rumors about it being in the possession of an Anglandurn collector, so it didn’t make sense for the item to be here.

As ignorant as they may be, they knew Sophie couldn’t possibly get her hands on such a gem.

“Oh, but it is the real deal. After all, it would only make sense to gift someone with something they like!” Sophie replied disdainfully. It’s funny how she’s mocking me when she’s the ignorant one here!

Minerva burst out laughing when she heard that.
