Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 732

Chapter 732 Wedding Gift

Meanwhile, Sophie, who was in the mansion, had already changed into a white dress.

That was a dress her grandfather had prepared for her while he was still alive. She guessed that her grandfather knew back then he had little time left in the living world.

That was why he had bought the white dress for her, hoping that she would wear it during her engagement.

When Arius saw Sophie after her makeup, he gave her a thumbs-up. “Indeed, our Sophie's the most beautiful person in this world.”

Naturally, she would be looking her best for her engagement.

Sophie grinned, then walked over to the altar.

“Grandpa, Tristan's here. Haven't you always liked him? I've decided to get married to him. I'm sure you'll be happy about this, right?”

Despite everything, Tristan was the young man Josiah approved of.

“All right, Sophie. Mr. Tristan and the rest are here. You're done, right? Let's head out now.” Even Yale sounded thrilled.

He had never thought Sophie would be able to get married to Tristan.

“Okay.”

When they went out and saw the grandeur of the scene, Yale stiffened. It had been a long time since he had seen anything as resplendent as that.

This must be what it's like for princesses of the past to get engaged, right?

Sophie saw how Tristan was wearing the suit she had bought for him. He looked dazzling, and he had a bright smile on his face.

Tristan was standing still, staring at her as if she was the only person he could see. At that very moment, Sophie found out what the definition of bliss was.

Sarah then came over with William, and Tristan introduced the two families to each other.

William had been on television lately, so Yale recognized him. He just never thought that he would become family with someone like William one day.

“Hello, Old Mr. Lombard. I'm Sophie's father.”

Despite the overwhelming excitement he felt, Yale managed to compose himself. Sophie was clearly capable enough to get engaged with Tristan, so he could not embarrass her by acting out of place.

“Hello, I'm Tristan's father. I'm sure we'll be meeting each other more often from now on.” After all, they would become in-laws and would be interacting more frequently in the future.

“Indeed. Please come in, Old Mr. Lombard.”

Yale instantly led everyone in. At the same time, Tristan came over to Sophie and held her hand.

“Why aren't you wearing a coat? It's a cold day today. What if you catch a cold?”

“Aren't you not wearing one either?”

Moreover, I'm only out here for a while. I doubt I'll catch a cold like this.

“All right, let's go in too. There are heaters in the house, so we won't be cold anymore.”

“Okay.”

With that, Tristan wrapped his arm around her shoulder and led her inside.

The living room was spacious, but there were many guests who were there for the engagement, so the crowd made the place look smaller than usual.

William and Yale sat on the couch and watched as the people brought the gift boxes into the house.

Those were not empty boxes for show.

Each and every box was filled with treasures inside.

Yale's heart lurched.

“We'll be a family from now on, so do tell me if you need anything in the future.” Everyone knew how powerful the Lombard family was in Jipsdale.

“Of course,” was the only thing Yale could say.

Looks like the Lombards think of Sophie as someone important. They wouldn't have prepared these many gifts otherwise. But what can we prep for Sophie's gifts?

Sarah, who was sitting beside William, uttered, “Dad, don't be like this.”

She knew that he would frighten others by saying that, and she knew that he was well aware of the power he held.

“Here is Tristan's natal chart. Where's Sophie's? Have you prepared it? I've brought the astrologer here. If you have hers, let's have the astrologer pick the right date for their wedding.”

“I did.”

Yale felt stressed to sit beside William, and that was a kind of stress unprecedented for him.

Perhaps it was because of William's identity.

Yale hastily took out Sophie's natal chart and handed it to the astrologer.

Once the astrologer received both individuals' natal charts, he moved aside to pick a date for their wedding.

“Dad, you've seen Sophie's grandpa, right? How about you go and pay your respect to him?” Tristan said, not wanting Josiah to miss out on Sophie's engagement even if it was in this way.

Regrets washed over William.

The last time he saw Josiah, he had not been polite toward him.

It was only right for him to say a few words to Josiah at his altar.

William walked over.

“Don't worry, Old Mr. Tanner. I'll dote on Sophie on behalf of you after she joins our family. I won't let anyone mistreat her. The two children have decided to be together, so I'll help them out in every way I can.”

There are so many things people can't phrase properly with words when they grow old.

After lowering his head for a while, William nodded at Josiah's photo.

“Old Mr. Lombard, please take a seat on the couch,” Yale said, promptly walking over to lead William back.

Charmaine was there with them as well, and she was equally baffled by the Lombards' imposing arrival.

Are the Lombards serious? There's no way Sophie is a match for the Lombard family. But the Lombards don't care about her identity at all? They're even making everything as monumental as possible for Sophie. That's the greatest form of respect a woman can get!

“Can you really accept Sophie? Can you really accept her regardless of her history?” Charmaine asked abruptly.

Yale frowned.

It's a big day today. What kind of trouble is she trying to stir up? I should have locked her up.

At once, the atmosphere turned awkward.

“Charmaine, what nonsense are you talking about?” Yale then turned to the housekeepers. “Mrs. Tanner's not feeling well. Bring her upstairs to rest.”

“Don't you worry. I won't say anything else,” Charmaine said before standing up. She did not wish to stay there either.

Yale was flustered by that, but he still said to William, “I hope you don't mind her, Old Mr. Lombard. She hasn't been feeling well lately.”

“It's okay. It's fine,” William said, not planning to have someone like Charmaine disrupt a merry day like this.

Even though William was upset by the episode, he said nothing since he was at the Tanner residence.

However, Sarah noticed his gloominess.

“Dad, don't take her words to heart. Sophie's mother has never liked Sophie that much, but it isn't Sophie's fault.”

“Of course. It's definitely Sophie's mother's fault. Someone like her simply can't stand to see others being happy.”

Since Sophie was the one Tristan had picked, she was certainly someone good.

There had to be something wrong with the people who thought badly of Sophie.

The Lombards had always been protective of their own.

Tristan and Sophie were there, too, and they knew what Charmaine meant. Nevertheless, they would not stoop to her level on a day like this.

Tristan held Sophie's hand and said, “Ignore her. You're the only one I love.”

No matter what happened in her past, the only thing he was concerned about was how he had not met her earlier. If he had, she would not have needed to go through the painful times.
