Chapter: 672

�Unless Renee and her gang are up to something behind the scenes!�

Briar�s face lit up with glee. �This is great info, just give me some time to do some research on this. If that woman really is behind this, her life will be over!�

At the Hunt residence, the sun was just right, and the flowers in the garden were in full bloom.

Francine was in quite a good mood, a watering can in her hand as she watered a lily plant

�Edith, don�t you think that the lilies in our garden look especially beautiful this year? They look bigger too!� Francine asked the housekeeper beside her, who was currently waiting on her.

�Huh?� Edith wanted to say that the lilies bloomed the same every year, as was the case now. However, she did not want to ruin Francine�s mood so she agreed, �Yes, there are a lot this year, and they are quite lovely, like last year!�

Francine�s gaze slid over Edith and she protested indignantly, �How are they anything like last year�s flowers? They clearly look better this year! Oh, and� do you want to know the symbolic meaning of lilies in full bloom?�

�Uh, what do they symbolize?�

�Lilies symbolize a lasting happy marriage. Since this year�s flowers are blooming so beautifully, it�s a sign from the heavens that my son and my daughter-in-law are about to get together and stay with each other forever! � Francine exclaimed in joy. She then picked one of the flowers and admired it in her hand, as if she could see Stefan and Renee�s bright new future in the flower.

�Do blooming lilies really symbolize such a thing?� Edith�s head was full of doubt as she muttered under her breath softly. She had never heard of such a thing.

�Who cares, it does as long as I say so. Now snip some of the best blooms and tie them up into a bouquet. I need them for later.� Francine instructed the housekeeper in a mysterious tone.

�Alright!� Edith took out a pair of scissors and did as told. She snipped off some lilies at the stem and put it into the flower basket she had with her.

Still snipping, she cautiously asked Francine, � Madam, I see that Miss Everheart�s return has made you more happy than Master Hunt this time. Do you not mind any of the things Miss Everheart had done to Miss Desrosiers?�

Francine�s jubilant grin faded. She replied tonelessly, �Ugh, you�re such a wet blanket! Why are you even bringing up such unpleasant matters?�

I�m sorry about this, Madam, but I just think that there is a huge difference between your attitude towards Miss Everheart now compared to before. I can�t understand what Miss Everheart has done to make you like her so much.�

This question had plagued Edith for the longest time, but she had always been too afraid to ask it.

�Well, about that, I can�t tell you what it is exactly� I just think that this girl is rather capable and caring. When my son was nearly paralyzed back then, she wouldn�t leave his side and cared for him constantly. That really made me change the way I viewed her.�

�Oh, and her cooking skills are amazing, especially her lemon-glazed chicken feet. I�ve missed it for the last four years, even in my dreams. She looks quite nice too. Charming, sweet, elegant, but not too much, and also� IV

Edith only asked her a simple question, never expecting Francine would start a rant about Miss Everheart, even going as far as to show Edith the recent video of Miss Everheart that went viral online.

�Just look at her agility� She�s amazing! She reminds me of my younger self. How could I not like her?� Francine exclaimed. JrNovels.com
