Fireworks continued. After exchanging New Year's greetings and saying goodnight, everyone returned to their

rooms

Morris stood on the balcony of the room, watching the fireworks far away, a gentle smile lifting his lips.

When Cherise cout of the bathroom after her shower, she him standing alone on the balcony.

She pulled her robe tighter around her and stepped out onto the balcony.

Moving closer to Morris, she reached out and hugged his strong waist tightly from behind. Her face gently rested

against his

back.

Morris let out a deep chuckle, looked down, and wrapped his large hands over Cherise's slender ones around his

waist. "Finished with your shower?"

Cherise responded, "How are you feeling today?"

Morris laughed again. "It's everything | ever dreamed of. I'm really satisfied."

His voice traveled through his back to Cherise's ears.

His voice was deep and comforting

Morris let go and turned around, pulling her into his arms, and kissed her fair forehead.

In the distance, someone started setting off fireworks. After watching the fireworks, Morris led her inside, and

from a drawer. he took out a prepared gift and handed it to Cherise. Morris said, "This is for you. It's the first New

Year gift I've ever packed by hand in my life, just for you!"

Cherise looked up at him. "Thank you very much. | can't wait to see what this is."

Morris gently held her face. "First, it's to wish you well, and secondly, in my heart, you're always my little baby.

So, this gift is my love for you. Go on, open it!" Cherise looked down at the gift in her hand. It seemed a bit

childish, but she smiled, opened it, and raised an eyebrow. "It's a

card!"

Morris nodded. "Yes, this card contains all my personal earnings. From today on, it's yours, Mrs. Chivers"

Cherise accepted it without reluctance, calmly placing it in her purse. "Very good, nicely done. It's only natural

for a husband to support his wife."

Morris loved Cherise's candidness. He playfully pinched her cheek. "With you in charge of the finances, | hope

you will take

care oftoo."

Outside the door, Phoebe, along with Enya, Steven, Leo, and Hugh, leaned against the doorframe. They had

been listening in for about half an hour.

Finally, unable to hear the strain on her back any longer, Phoebe called everyone downstairs

She spoke with frustration, "Did you hear that? When will | be able to hold my great-grandchild? Why can't | hear

anything

about it?"

Hugh said seriously, "Mrs. Chivers, who could hear anything? It New Year's and the fireworks are going off one

Leo nodded in agreement, saying, "Mrs. Chivers, don't worry too much. My instincts are usually spot-on. By the

end of the year at the latest, we should all be attending a baby celebration." Phoebe nodded in satisfaction,

saying. "Leo always knows just what to say. Well then, everyone, let's head to bed, hahat"

The next day, early in the morning, many people who wanted to get in good with the Chivers family cto the

Chivers residence to offer New Year greetings.

Steven and his brothers decided to set up a few chairs by the door early, managing the crowd eager to see

Morris.

Morris and Cherise had just woken up. After getting dressed, they were ready to head out.

Morris's grandmother had sent a New Year's party invitation scheduled for the afternoon of New Year's Day.

It was still morning, and the two of them planned to visit somewhere first. They carried plenty of gifts as if

visiting family or meeting someone important.

In the car, Morris asked, "Cherise, do you think we have enough stuff ready?"

Cherise rested her chin in her hand, looking at him. "Of course, he seems to lack nothing. Today is mainly for you

all to meet and get to know each other."

Half an hour later, by the largest freshwater lake in Betrico. A familiar figure stood by the lake waiting and

walked over when he saw Cherise getting out of the car.

Eugene said, "Happy New Year, Cherise!"

Cherise noticed the person who cto greet them and sweetly said, "Happy New Year, Eugene. This is my

husband, Morris Chivers. This is Eugene Garcia, but you can just call him Eugene Morris exchanged New Year

greetings with Eugene, then led the way for them.

Morris felt that the person looked familiar like he had seen him somewhere before.

Eugene pointed to the small island in the middle of the lake, saying, "Ms. Garcia and | live on that island. We

need to take a boat to get there."

Cherise turned her head to meet Morris's eyes, and they both understood each other's thoughts.

Indeed, they both knew that Cherise's mentor wasn't ordinary. Not just anyone could live on that island.

Eugene's speedboat quickly reached the island. The scenery here was absolutely stunning, even more so than

their hin

Larkston.

"Cherise, Morris, cover this way. Ms. Garcia has been waiting for you for a long tEugene continued

leading the

way.

The island was fairly simple, with only a concrete road and a spacious villa. It seemed like they just arrived in

Betrico and hadn't had the opportunity to set up more amenities yet.

Carson knew since last night that Cherise would cto give him New Year's greetings today. He was so

delighted that he waited in his wheelchair at the villa entrance. 09:00 Wed, Dec 18
