Chapter 971
At the grand luncheon, Felicity put her phone down and gave Jean a curious look. “The
most influential individuals in both the business and political spheres are at my house,
Madam Windsor. Don’t you think it’s a little inappropriate for you to be here?”
The elegant-looking woman seated at the head of the table smiled demurely. “I’ve never
been to Snyder Estate ever since your aunt
passed!”
Felicity glanced at Nash before she then asked, “Madam Windsor, can
I ask you a question?”
“Yes, go ahead!”
“You…”
Felicity thought the question was slightly awkward and did not know
how to begin her sentence.
“Go ahead and ask what’s on your mind. I don’t bite!”
Jean put her cutlery down gently.
Felicity drew in a deep breath and summoned her courage to ask, ”
Rumor has it that you were once a nun. Is that true?”
Jean gave Felicity a startled look. “Who said that?”
“So, does that mean this isn’t true?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“It’s not true!”
“Then, why aren’t you married?”
“Can I refuse to answer this question?”
Jean had a rueful look on her face. However, she did not seem
offended.
Felicity shook her head and said, “No, you must answer it!”
Jean’s eyebrows began knitting themselves together slowly.
Then, Nash spoke up, “Don’t interrogate her, Felicity. We’ve all got
secrets we’d like to keep to ourselves.”
Felicity stuck her tongue out. “Fine, I’ll stop asking questions!”
Jean picked up her wine glass and changed the subject. “Mr. Calcraft, I’d like to thank you
on behalf of the Windsor family for ridding Sagen
of its troubles!”
Nash smiled as he also picked up his wine glasses. “I didn’t have
much to do with that. It’s all thanks to the Northern Territory Warden
You should thank him instead!”
An odd look appeared on Jean’s face when the Northern Territory
Warden was mentioned.
Nash did not ask any questions and downed his wine in one go.
After lunch, Nash asked Felicity for her help in booking several plane
tickets for a return trip to Jonford.
Felicity booked tickets for a flight at three in the afternoon.
Jean asked the housekeeper to prepare some fruits and tea.
Chapter 971
While having dessert, Felicity asked, “Madam Windsor, what sort of person was my aunt
like?”
She was asking that question on behalf of Nash.
She knew Nash was at the Windsor home because he wanted to
know more about his mother.
Jean perched on the couch elegantly, a look of reminisce appearing in her eyes as she
said, “She was a kind, gentle, and sensible lady. I used to describe her as a ray of sunlight
because she would bring warmth to every place she went!”
Felicity sighed. “I can imagine just how popular she must have been back in the day!”
Jean chuckled. “The number of love letters I was asked to pass to her was enough to fill
several large bags. The rich and handsome heirs of the business and political spheres
were interested in her.
“The current governor of Sagen actually spent two years trying to woo her, while the
current patriarch of Capiton’s Zuniga family actually ran
away from home for her!”
Eric could not help clicking his tongue after hearing what Jean said. Do you have any
pictures of her? I’m curious what she looks like!”
After a moment’s silence, Jean retrieved a wallet from her LV handbag and took a colored

picture to Eric.
There were two gorgeous-looking women in the photograph.
One was in a white dress and had a cream-colored round hat perched

on her head. Her hair was braided into two braids that hung down her chest, and she had
a gentle smile on her face.
Her smile was one of the most beautiful things one could ever lay
their eyes on.
The other person was wearing a long green dress, and her hair was also braided into two
braids. She was using her fingers to poke her cheeks and had crossed her eyes to make a
funny face. She seemed
adorable.
Eric handed the photo to Nash and said appreciatively, “Indeed, she’s beautiful. There’s
an air of elegance about her!”
Nash took the photo and could not help grinning when he saw his mother in her youth.
“No wonder she gave birth to a son as good-
looking as I am…..”
“Don’t get all cocky… You’re not even half as good-looking as Jaxon
is!”
Felicity grabbed the photo from Nash’s hands and was stunned by
her beauty. “She’s gorgeous… As expected of the Snyder family’s
wonderful genes!”
