Chapter 372

Everyone watched as Morris led Cherise, following behind Lucas and Mary.

As they were about to walk past Yulia and Rita, Cherise turned her head and glanced at Yulia. Then she calmly followed

Morris

In that brief moment, Yulia seemed unsteady, as if she couldn't keep her balance.

Luckily, Rita quickly held her. "Yulia, are you okay?"

Tm fine, just these heels are a bit high, Yulia whispered softly.

This scene was caught by Lisa, standing not far away, a mocking mile on her lips.

Cherise and Morris's arrival definitely drew a lot of attention.

Morris was, unsurprisingly, the center of attention wherever he went, and no one dared to talk behind his back. After all, his appearance, wealth, status, and position spoke for themselves

Cherise was different, especially in a setting dominated by women Hidden tensions quietly surfaced.

Some were jealous of her beauty and talent, while others envied her for marrying the charming and wealthy Morris. And then, there were those who looked down on her background, and there were many,

When a person had many positive traits, others often focused on something they thought was negative and exaggerated it Those who looked down on Cherise's background were like that They just didn't want to admit someone else's excellence.

Of course, many people still thought Cherise was perfect. Standing with Morris, they looked like a perfect match.

"Everyone, enjoy the drinks and food! It's not often our family hosts a party, so please feel at home!" Jean said as she watched her grandparents lead the guests inside.

Children raised by the Jarrett family were pure-hearted and unlikely to turn out badly.

Inside the house, Lucas took his place at the head of the table and invited everyone else to sit. "Come on, quickly, take a sep don't just stand there

Mary also sat down. Usually, she was quite a talkative old lady, but seeing Cherise today left her unusually quiet.

Morris waited for Cherise to sit before he took his seat right beside her.

"Mary, why haven't you given your granddaughter-in-law her gif yet? What's happening today? You're usually on top of things, Lucas suddenly said. "Huh? Oh, right, right," Mary quickly responded as she fumbled in her pocket, pulling out two gifts, handing one to Morris

and another to Cherise.

When she handed it to Morris, she was natural, but when she got to Cherise, she almost couldn't lift her head to meet her eyes.

Cherise glanced at the somewhat shy Mary, her lips curving up slightly. She thought, 'She is a rather amusing old lady

Rita was outside, and from the moment she entered and saw Mary, it was clear that someone had been saying something to Mary. Or perhaps there was some other subtle clue. Seeing that Mary had given them both gifts, Lucas cheerfully spoke up. "Cherise, right? Cherise, now that you've married. our Morris, you're officially part of the Jarrett family. 09:00 Wed, Dec 18 @G.

To outsiders, our Jarrett family may seem very strict with lots of rules. But really, that's not how it is. We just do whatever feels right and comfortable.

"You know Morris's mom.... We just hope you'll stay by his side so we won't have any concerns."

Every time Lucas talked about his late daughter, he couldn't help but get emotional, his eyes becoming misty. Mary was no different, sitting there with teary eyes, not caring who Cherise resembled.

This was why Morris didn't like coming here. Every time his grandparents saw him, it reminded them of their lost daughter. It was not that he disliked them, it was just that this atmosphere made him feel guilty towards them. Cherise pressed her lips together as she observed the scene in front of her. She glanced at Morris, then at Lucas and the others, and said, "Please don't worry, now that I'm Morris's wife, Il stand by him through thick and thin. "In this life, unless he betrays me, I'll stand by him until the end

Morris, who was beside her, gazed deeply into Cherise's eyes, not caring about Lucas and Mary's presence, and said, "I'm different. Even if you betray me, I'll still stay with you until the end." Lucas laughed, "Ah, not many young people think like you do these days. I'll remember what you've said."

Mary was surprised by how determined Cherise looked. It was her first time here and she didn't act like other girls who would be amazed and look around.

Calm and composed, she was indeed a good match for Morris, regardless of her background.

Besides, she herself didn't care about backgrounds, and Cherise was a professor, CEO, and designer, definitely someon a high status. Thinking like this, her impression of Cherise improved a lot. After chatting for a bit, Lucas was quite pleased with Cherise. He looked at Mary and said, "Mary, why don't you take our granddaughter-in-law out to get something to eat while I talk with Morris? "Granddaughter-in-law, let your grandpa chat with Morris for a little while, just a little."

Cherise nodded, got up, smiled at Mary, and walked out of the room with her.
