"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.

"The important thing is that my darling son likes her. That idiot has taken too long to understand love,

and he’s never really liked anyone before this too. Now that someone has captured his heart, of course

I'd wish that they will both settle down together."

Edith nodded. "That is true. Ever since Miss Everheart left all these years, Master Hunt has been so

miserable. I haven't seen him smile genuinely for so long. Hopefully this time, when they reconcile, they

won’t break up again.”xo.com fast update

"That goes without saying. But my son doesn't seem interested in taking action this time. That's why, I,

as his mother, will have to take matters into my own hands. I just can’t let those two miss each other

again!"

As Francine and Edith were discussing how to get Stefan and Renee together, a servant announced,

"Madam, Miss Desrosiers is here to see you."

"Oh, her. Tell her that I am busy at the moment and cannot meet her." Francine’s expression was one

of annoyance.

"But... Miss Desrosiers said that she has very important news she needs to tell you!
