My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 972

Chapter 972

Melody turned her head slightly to look at the photo, and she suddenly felt a little ashamed of herself.

The woman in the photo had an ethereal air about her.

All of a sudden, she found herself at a loss for words as to how to

describe Ruby.

If she really had to describe her, it would be that she seemed

unsullied and angelic.

Felicity returned the photo to Jean. “Who’s the lady making faces in the photo, Madam Windsor? She looks so dumb!”

Jean said awkwardly, “That’s me!”

Felicity was stunned. “No way, she looks completely different from you. You seem so regal and elegant, while the lady seems to be more of the bubbly and cute kind!”

Jean stared at her younger self in the photo and said dolefully,”

People change!”

Felicity guessed that Jean’s personality must have undergone such a massive change because of how hard Ruby’s death had hit her.

Jean took another photo from her wallet and handed it to Nash.” You’re my best friend’s son, and you also rid Sagen of Dominic. Giving you money seems rather debased, so I thought I could gift you this photo instead. I hope you’ll like it!”

Tears brimmed in Nash’s eyes after he took the photo and looked at

It was a photo of Ruby, whose hands were placed gently on her

swollen belly. Her eyes were full of love and adoration as if the child she was carrying were her entire world.

“Thank you… This is the most valuable gift I’ve ever received in my

life!”

Nash’s eyes turned moist.

For as long as he could remember, he had been practicing cultivation on Tili Mountain alongside his master. He had never experienced any

sort of parental love.

The photo he held was filled with maternal love for him.

“Back when I took this photo of Ruby, she held my hand and told me,’

Jeanie, be my baby’s godmother after he’s born. You need to love my baby too!””

Tears appeared in Jean’s eyes when she recalled the time she a

Ruby had climbed Divinity Mountain together. It was the last time s

had ever seen Ruby.

Nash got up and knelt before Jean. “Please take me in as your godson, respected godmother!”

Jean hurriedly pulled Nash to his feet. “Silly child, a man should not grovel or bow down before others. How could you fall to your knees without a second thought?”

Nash smiled. “Men should kneel before the heavens and their

parents. You’re my godmother, which makes you my mother by proxy. Nothing wrong with me kneeling before my mother!”

Jean wiped her tears dry. “There’s nothing much I want. All I hope is

that you can drop by and visit me whenever you have some spare

time in the future!”

Nash nodded. “My grandfather is in Sagen too. I’ll definitely drop by

and visit whenever I have time!”

Jean chuckled and glanced at Melody as she asked, “Is she your

girlfriend?”

Nash laughed ruefully. “She’s just a friend!”

He always went everywhere with Melody, so it was not odd everyone

else always assumed she was his girlfriend.

Jean was stunned. “Is there anyone you’re interested in? Do you need

me to pull any strings?”

“Nash is already married!”

Felicity grinned as she spoke.

Jean said, “Bring your wife along so I can get a good look at her th

next time you’re in Sagen!”

Then, she sat back down on the couch and said dazedly, “Time

passes so quickly. Ruby is going to be a grandmother soon!”

“Godmo, can you go on a walk with me?” Nash had a sudden urge to

learn more about his godmother and father.

“Alright!”

Jean regained control over her emotions and went on a walk in the nearby park with Nash.
