He stared intently at the spot where the yacht docked on the island. After seeing who had arrived, he averted his gaze and wheeled himself forward. "Happy New Year, little Cherise! he said joyfully, wheeling himself along.

Cherise smiled back, "Happy New Year to you too, Ms. Garcia, and may you have good health."

Morris carried two bags and, upon seeing the elderly man in the wheelchair, remembered the scene from that day on the way back to Saphira.

The person before him, Cherise's mentor, was the old man who had greeted him from the front seat of the car that day.

He thought, 'No wonder he could be Cherise's mentor. And this little island is a place even billionaires can't purchase. This old man must be at a master's level.

He also stepped forward and politely nodded to Carson, who was sitting in a wheelchair. "Happy New Year, Ms. Garcia! I'm. Morris Chivers, nice to meet you!"

As he said this, he reached out to shake Carson's hand

Carson was extremely delighted. "Haha, this is a joyful New Year. Morris, you're quite something. The richest man in Clusia, who doesn't know you!

"Come on in and have a seat. From now on, this place can be considered like Cherise's family home. Today. Im personally cooking for you all. Let's have a meal here before heading out for the day! "Sure!" Cherise and Morris exchanged a look and smiled as they agreed.

Even the little animals from Larkston were brought over, making the island quite lively.

They chatted casually, starting with politics and major news, then moving on to social economics and human ethics.

At the Jarrett residence in the city center, the first day of the New Year was definitely bustling with excitement.

Besides, Lucas had announced that the first day of the year should be lively in the mansion, bringing vibrancy and joy to the whole Jarrett family and even the whole of Clusia.

Mary was always like this. Even when she was young, she loved a lively atmosphere. With a rare chance to celebrate from the beginning to the end of the year, she couldn't wait to invite all her friends and family.

The Jarrett residence was colorful with decorations and full of people, The guards at the entrance checked each guest- carefully, making sure security was tight.

Every guest eagerly cooperated. If it were anywhere else, these High-status people might have already lost their patience and even started yelling.

But not here. The Jarrett residence was a prestigious place, like a royal residence in ancient times.

Being invited was a coveted status symbol, so they didn't mind the few minutes of inspection at all. Even the guests nodded and bowed to the guards. The scene was both lively and funny.

"Grandpa, Grandma, are you ready? Mr. Jarrett isn't coming today, is he? I really hope he doesn't show up on such a happy day. It would make things serious for us."

Chapter 370

The speaker was Jean, the only blood-related junior in the Jarrels family besides Morris. The 'Mr. Jarrett' she mentioned was Arthur, the leader of Clusia.

Mary dressed festively today and playfully poked Jean's forehead. "You little rascal! What's wrong with Arthur coming over? I haven't even seen him face-to-face at all this year. I am his biological mother. I'd be thrilled if he came. The elderly man sitting on the sofa gave a couple of soft coughs Ahem, ahem, that's why I say, you all should try reading more books in your free time, then you won't feel so bored.

"You're all too soft-hearted. Arthur is constantly busy every day. Now that it's the New Year, he should be out there keeping the people and the country in his thoughts.

"Unlike you all, who just gossip and watch TV shows when you have nothing else to do. You see, if it weren't for his continuous hard work keeping everything in order, we wouldn't be sitting here so relaxed.

"The guests must be arriving by now, especially Morris, who is bringing his wife to meet us today. We better prepare a generous gift, or else Morris's wife's family might think we're stingy.

"Let's go out and have a look first. Don't hide here, or others will laugh at us."

This old man was Morris's grandfather, Lucas Jarrett. He was tall and strong and a cheerful old fellow.

He got up and walked in front, with Jean holding Mary's hand, following behind.

Jean patted Mary's hand, saying, "Grandma, have you seen a picture of Morris's wife? There are plenty online. I've seen them, and she's quite beautiful. But I don't know about her character or other aspects.

"I've heard some not-so-good things, but you know, hearing is unreliable. It's better to meet her in person to know for sure "Don't you think so, Grandma? Grandma, what's wrong? Why are you spaced out, looking tired? Are you okay?" When Mary heard the words "Morris's wife," she thought of the photo again, feeling a bit uneasy, though she knew they weren't the same person.

She sneered, "I don't know. You're just a kid. What do you understand? Let's see how it goes first."
