Anything For Her

Chapter 1017

Willow stood in awe as she had never seen such extravagance before. It allowed her to understand what it truly meant to be in the elite social circle. The stark contrast to her previous illusions about the Tanner family’s status left her feeling insignificant and humbled.

Meanwhile, William and his family had also arrived at the venue. As soon as he noticed Caleb and his family, he went over to greet them.

Despite everything, they were still Sophie’s family. It was important to be respectful.

“Please, come in and take a seat! Sophie and the others will join us shortly. Let us take our seats.” William graciously guided them to the main table. It was a gesture that emphasized their importance.

Morgan hesitated to sit when he saw the reserved spot was at the main table. As a mere servant, he felt it inappropriate for him to occupy such a position of prominence.

“Mr. Tanner, I’ll sit over there instead. I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to sit here,” he whispered.

Charmaine chose to remain silent, but deep down, she shared the same sentiment as Morgan, She didn’t think it was appropriate for the butler to occupy such an important seat.

However, Caleb shook his head.

“Morgan, Sophie must want you to sit here. You represent Grandpa,” he insisted, fully aware of his sister’s deep respect for Josiah.

The butler didn’t argue further and accepted the decision.

*Please make yourself comfortable here. I need to attend to the other guests,” said William.

As one of the top aristocratic families in the city, the Lombards had drawn the attention of all the influential individuals in Jipsdale, who had come together to celebrate this momentous occasion.

As the patriarch of the Lombard family, William had many things to attend to.

When Lincoln saw his father reappearing again, he urged, “Dad, age is catching up on you. I’ll take care of everything here. Please take a rest.”

William waved his hand dismissively and said, “I’m fine, Lincoln. I’m so happy today! Tristan is finally getting married!”

Lincoln supported his father to a nearby resting area.

“All right, Dad. I know you are overjoyed, but you should be mindful of your health. Otherwise, how are you going to see your grandchildren in the future?” Now that Tristan and Sophie were married, it wouldn’t be long before they had a child.

William’s smile widened as he assured, “All right. Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing”

“Good that you know

Just then, Sarah arrived and informed. “Dad, the president has arrived. You should personally greet him”

Given the rarity of the president attending social occasions, it was only fining for William to personally receive the esteemed guest. The others could focus on greeting the remaining attendees

“The president? Why is he here?” William asked, his curiosity piqued. Although he had handed over a national treasure to the government, it seemed unlikely that the president would attend his son’s wedding just because of that.

“It’s because of Sophie.” Lincoln had insider knowledge because of his involvement in politics.

The Lombard family was indeed lucky to have her.

“Ah, I see. That makes sense.” No matter how accomplished Tristan was, being a businessman alone doesn’t warrant the personal attendance of the president.

However, it would be an entirely different matter if the president attended the wedding because of Sophie. She was a member of the Chanacan Medical Association and played a crucial role in the virus incident.

It made sense for the president to show up.

“All right, Sarah, stay here and take care of the guests. Lincoln and I will greet the president,” William instructed.

As a politician, Lincoln should leverage this opportunity to leave a positive impression on the president.

“Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll handle things out here. Go on!”

Sarah was no stranger to grand occasions, and despite the presence of influential figures from Jipsdale, she felt confident in managing the situation.

Lincoln and William made their way to the room where the president was at. There were secret service agents stationed outside the room.

However, they did not make things difficult for the duo. Instead, they allowed them to enter the room.

“Congratulations, Old Mr. Lombard!” the president greeted them with a warm smile.

He attended the wedding to cultivate a favorable relationship with Tristan and Sophie, so he had to set aside his esteemed status and act humbly.

“I didn’t expect you to show up, Mr. President. But you have a special status. You might cause a commotion if you were to leave the room.”

The Lombard family would find themselves in a precarious situation should any unfortunate incident befall the president during the wedding.

“Don’t worry, Old Mr. Lombard. I didn’t want to miss the opportunity to congratulate them. Both Tristan and Sophie have made remarkable contributions to our country. I’m here to extend my best wishes.”

Aware of the potential disruptions his public appearance might cause, the president had chosen to attend the wedding discreetly.

“I extend my sincere gratitude to you, Mr. President, on behalf of Tristan and Sophie,” William said humbly.

“Well, you go ahead and get busy. I will join the wedding festivities later.” His presence alone held iminense significance, a testament to the honor bestowed upon the Lombard family.

“Okay, I’ll make the arrangements. They would need to set up a separate table for the president since it wouldn’t be appropriate to exclude him from the wedding

“Please, go ahead! I am here to partake in the joyous celebration just like everyone else. There’s no need to give me any special attention,” the president said.

“No need to worry, Mr. President. We will ensure everything is taken care of.”

The president is unlike other guests attending the wedding.

After William and Lincoln departed, the president’s secretary couldn’t contain his curiosity any longer. “May I ask, Mr. President, why did you personally attend this event? Your presence is sure to give rise

to countless speculations and rumors.”

Even though he was the secretary, he did not understand why the president had chosen to attend the wedding.

“Sophie is a medical genius, while Tristan controls Chanaea’s economy. It’s only right for me to attend their wedding.

He recognized the potential benefits of establishing close ties with them, as it would undoubtedly facilitate the advancement of his own work.

The secretary pondered for a moment before asking, “What should we do about the rumors?” After all, the president could not keep hiding in the room.

“That’s where your task is. Everyone gathered here is wealthy and influential. It’s imperative that you address any potential rumors and shut their mouths.”

What rumors might emerge from my attendance? The secretary must strategize how to manage public perception and control the narrative. It isn’t that challenging, right?

Tristan’s father had personally handed a national treasure to the government. The president’s attendance at his son’s wedding should not be seen as anything out of the ordinary or suspicious.

“I understand. I shall make the necessary arrangements,” the secretary replied, immediately understanding what the president meant.

Right then, Tristan and Sophie’s wedding car had arrived at the hotel.

When Tristan lifted Sophie in his arms, she said, “I can walk on my own.” She did not want to tire Tristan

“You’re the bride. How can I let you walk?” Tristan insisted while carrying her to the presidential suite. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

The wedding was about to commence, and the makeup artists and hairstylists had arrived to touch up Sophie’s makeup. Ysabelle and the rest were also getting their makeup done. Every girl wants to look beautiful on such a special day.
