Goddaughter?
The Payne Family was amused to hear this, especially since Wyatt Hale had offered to recognize Martin Yates as his godfather on New Year's Eve, but was declined. The reason given was that he preferred children like Cressida Jones.
If both parties have no objections, naturally, it would be a good thing.
Julia Yates looked at her daughter who was lost in thought and smiled, "Zoe, what do you think?"
Zoe Payne pursed her lips, her mind racing in just a few short seconds.
She felt that her brother treated Miss Jones somewhat differently.
But since he said he didn't like her, force-feeding a bull water to drink would prove ineffective, let alone forcing marriage. Perhaps...
Brother's feelings for her weren't of fondness?
So she smiled and said, "I think it's quite nice."
"Then I will ask your uncle's opinion later. Spend more time with Miss Jones to observe and casually gauge her thoughts," Julia was cautious, "If she's unwilling, we can't force her."
