My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 971

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?” 

“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 photograph out of it. She handed the 

picture to Eric. 

There were two gorgeous-looking women in the photograph.
