NovelEnglishMy Billionaire Family 117 Chapter 117 Near the hotel where Cherise and her group were staying, there was a large traditional courtyard house.
It seemed more like an ancient palace than just a simple courtyard house.
The architectural features were both classic and luxurious.
Through the front yard and the main hall, there was a large open courtyard.
At the north of the courtyard stood a giant stone screen facing south.
On the stone screen, there was a delicately carved ancient royal pattern. In contrast to the dark night, the pattern looked mysterious and solemn. This estate was the residence of the Muller family, the leading family in Hamolica.

They walked through a beautifully carved, ancient-style corridor and arrived at the back courtyard.
In stark contrast to the mysterious and solemn atmosphere of the front yard, the back courtyard was brightly illuminated, featuring a luxurious and modern classic style of decoration.
An elderly man, clad in a suit, sat in the center of the living room on a wooden sofa, brewing coffee.
Steam gently rose from the small, delicate coffee set, filling the room with the rich aroma of coffee. The servant led Jason inside and announced, "Mr. Rayburn Muller, Mr. Muller has returned." "Good evening, Grandpa," Jason greeted Rayburn with respect.
Rayburn looked up at Jason and said, "Jason, you're back. Have a seat and give this new coffee a try." Rayburn was Jason's grandfather, the head of the Muller family.
Despite being 79 years old, Rayburn's hair remained thick and dark, giving him a much younger appearance. Jason nodded and sat down.
He picked up a cup of coffee, blew gently over the surface, and enjoyed it.
"How is it?" Rayburn asked eagerly.
"Well, it's excellent! Rich, smooth, and with a lasting aroma-this is truly fine coffee," Jason responded earnestly. Rayburn was overjoyed, laughed wholeheartedly, and remarked "Jason, you're a coffee connoisseur.

Everyone has their own fate. I can't foresee mine, but I know my lifespan all too well!" Hearing this, Jason looked down in silence.
