Martin walked onto the stage with the microphone in hand and a benevolent look on his face.

“Thank you all for coming today. My daughter-in-law was just cracking a joke with you guys just now and it was purely for your amusement. Please don’t take her seriously. In fact, my granddaughter and grandson-in-law met each other four years ago and they share a four-year-old daughter.

“However, we were against their relationship at that time and after four years of trials and tribulations, we’ve finally realized that Jordan is a very loyal and driven person. That’s why we agreed to let them get married.”

As soon as he said that, there was endless discussion among the crowd.

“So it turns out they already have a child together. This punk is really something! Even after fathering her child, he has to be put under probation for four years. It really isn’t easy being the Howards’ son-in-law!”

Martin continued, “We won’t be accepting gifts for today’s wedding. Many friends and families have been presenting me with monetary gifts just now but I hereby declare that we will not be accepting a single gift today. Thank you all for your goodwill.”

The guests began discussing again.

“Someone of high status like Mr. Howard Sr. indeed shouldn’t be accepting any gifts. Otherwise, given his power in the world of business and politics, I’m afraid someone would give him a gift that’s worth over a million dollars!”

“Hah, over a million? You must be underestimating the Howards. I’m sure some people would dare to give gifts that are worth 15 million dollars!”

“Yeah, as long as the Howards accept the gifts, they’ll have to work for others. They can easily earn that money back.”

Martin looked at the crowd and said, “But I saw that many of you have come bearing gifts. Since ancient times, giving gifts to newlywed couples has always been customary. And so, we will graciously accept non-monetary gifts.”

As soon as Martin said that, the guests at the scene immediately got excited.

A middle-aged woman quickly got up and said, “Mr. Howard Sr., I’m the CEO of Feather women’s watches and I’ve brought a red, limited-
