My Billionaire Family 341

Chapter 341

The person who was talking to them was Morris's biological father, Harold,

Rita sized up Harold in front of her. To her, Morris did hear sresemblance to him. However, as Morris's father,

his capabilities were far inferior to Morris's. Even his gaze, the way He looked at people, carried an undertone of

calculation. Rita said politely. "It seems like our families have shistory. Morris's mother and | grew up

together as sisters"

Everyone in the room was sharp, and Harold knew Rita was trying to establish a connection. Although he had

never heard his mother mention this, he still smiled and replied, "Oh, yes, I've heard my mother talk about it. In

that case, we're practically family. "And when it comes to family, there's no need to be so polite, right?"

Rita nodded and exchanged a glance with Garrick before sitting down in the main seat. Garrick, content to take

on the role of tea pourer, sat beside her.

After taking a sip of tea, Rita looked at Harold and spoke, "I'm sure you know why | invited you here today, right,

Mr. Chivers?

Hearing Rita's question, Harold put down his cup with a sigh. "As parents, we always want what's best for our

children. I'm here because of my son, Morris. | heard that Ms. Yulia Muller knows Morris, and | wanted to ask...

"Is there a chance we could becin-laws?"

Rita lowered her head, sipping her tea, her eyes seemingly casual as she glanced at him. She let out a light

laugh. "Well, in Clusia knows that Morris has registered his marriage. Surely, as his biological father, don't you

know about everyone this?"

Harold, appearing indifferent, responded, "Of course | knew. However, as we all know, marriage is traditionally a

matter for the parents to decide. To be honest, I'm not fond of Cherise. As his father, don't I still have a say?"

Beside them, Garrick spoke up, "That's true. As nobility, we've always followed that principle. However, with the

decline of our class and the progress of society, the younger generation isn't likely to listen to us anymore."

Harold snorted coldly. "Men, especially young men, are all full of passion. Right now, they're caught up in the

heat of the moment and wrapped up in sweet words. However, after a while, they'll start seeing the real picture.

"I don't like wasting tso I'll get straight to the point then. You know Morris is exceptional. There's no one like

him in all of Clusia. I'd like him to marry someone like Ms. Yulia Muller-someone with a strong family background.

"It's true that Cherise knows a lot of famous masters. However, the thing is, they're not our family. How much

help can they offer? They're too busy with their own issues to worry about someone like her, a small-town girl.

"Besides, her family, the Leach family, is no longer reputable. They're simply not a match for Morris." Harold's

words carried a trace of anger.

Rita curved her lips into a smile. "I understand your point, Mr. Chivers. It's true for any great family and it's

always been like this, from ancient times until now. People don't care what your current status is or how powerful

you've become. "Your birth will always be a key factor, and people will always talk about it."

She paused for a moment, glancing at Harold, then spoke with a tone that seemed almost regretful. Tve taken

quite a liking to Morris. It's just unfortunate-he and our Cherise, it seems they re fated to be apart!" With that,

she waved her hand dismissively. "What do you mean by that. Mrs. Muller? It's never too late as long as you

want to talk about it. Morris is a straightforward

man, but I'm not sure if Ms. Muller feels the same

ne way

"You know, if this works out, Morris will be remarried. I'm afraid he might not be worthy of someone like Ms.

Muller." Harold spoke anxiously

Rita, about to respond with a smile, was interrupted when the door was suddenly flung open. The three people in

the study turned to look. It was Yulia.

Yulia stood alone in the doorway. Rita quickly rose to her feet. "What are you doing here, Yulia?"

Yulia didn't respond. She walked to Harold, her expression serious as she spoke. Tm willing to marry Morris

Whether he is in his second or third marriage, | still love him. Besides, they haven't even had the wedding yet, so

Mr. Chivers, please help mel

Her words sounded almost humble as if she were pleading.

Harold nodded, looking relieved. "Good. Hearing that from Ms. Muller makesvery glad." He then turned to

Rita. "What do you think. Mrs. Muller?"

Rita rubbed her forehead, pondering. "Yulia is my only granddaughter, and if this is what she wants, | support it.

However, Mr. Chivers, I'll need Morris's natal chart. It's an old family tradition. If the stars don't align, we won't

force it, okay?" Harold didn't believe in these superstitions, but seeing that Rita was willing to compromise, he

eagerly agreed. "Of course. Ill go check on it and bring it to you in a few days!"

Rita appeared to hesitate, saying, "Alright, then. Please have it toby the fifteenth of this month. You can call

Yulia directly."

Harold, knowing there were many rules in a noble house, didn't question her. He simply nodded and agreed.
