HP: Embrace the Darkness

Anna's eyes stayed on Artes' shirt with two buttons missing, and she was completely uninterested in listening to his apology.

"Aces, what happened to your clothes?"

Aces pulled off the collar and felt the different spaciousness at his neck. Only then did he remember that he had only treated the wound and not repaired the shirt.

"I...I'm fine. I just had a fight with an annoying guy and his button was ripped off."

He struggled for a few seconds between telling the truth and telling a white lie, and finally chose to tell the truth.

As soon as Ana heard about the fight, her expression changed. She quickly sat upright on the bed and stretched out her hand to Asseth, "Come here and let me see if you are injured."

Aces sat on the edge of the bed and let Anna check him back and forth.

After confirming that Artes was really uninjured, Anna felt relieved and hugged Artes fearfully.

"Be careful when fighting. If you can't beat us, find someone else. There are so many of us. There's no way we can't beat each other. Don't be brave, okay?"

Anna also treated Artes as a child, holding his hand and instructing him carefully on the precautions for fighting. Artes listened patiently and responded with a few words from time to time.

As soon as Suzanne heard the word fight, she sat on the edge of the bed and listened.

So the next scene is when Anna says something, she slaps her thigh once, showing an expression of realization, and then claps in unison.

If the atmosphere is not enough, she will also add a few words, "Oh, that's it, and then, you're right, why are you so awesome?"

All in all, in terms of admiration, his own son Artes had to accept Susanna's disadvantage.

The three of them chatted enthusiastically, completely ignoring William who silently opened the window for ventilation.

William pinched his eyebrows again, resigned to his fate and remained silent, not to disturb the interest of their conversation.

The three of them chatted until the sun went down.

Asseth noticed the fatigue hidden in Anna's smile and took the initiative to change the topic.

"Cousin, what did you want to eat yesterday? Grandpa Joel doesn't seem to know. He ordered the house elf to prepare dinner as usual."

Susanna slapped her thigh and whined.

"My roasted whole lamb and kiln chicken! No, I have to go notify you and teach the house elf on the way. Asseth, you stay with Anna, I will go first."

She rushed downstairs in ten-centimeter high heels. Her posture was more like murder and arson than giving notice.

Aces: "..."

Anna tugged on Asseth's sleeve, and Asseth turned back, "What's the matter?"

"Mom's sweet baby, you are still so considerate. Come on, let mom take a look at you."

Anna grabbed Ass's hand and looked at him carefully. Tears filled her eyes unknowingly. She blinked and her eyelashes were covered with tears.

Aces: "..."

It felt right, Susanna cried the same way.

Can we only say that they are worthy of being two sisters?

He sighed softly, raised his hand and gently wiped away Anna's tears, "Mom, do you know? My cousin just held me and finished crying a few days ago."

Anna pursed her lips and shed more tears, "You hug her when she cries. You just wipe your tears when I cry. You don't love me anymore. Mommy's baby doesn't love mommy anymore."

Hearing Anna's mouthful of treasure, Artes blushed in embarrassment.

"Mom, I don't mean that. And can you change your name? I'm already twenty-two."

"Why do you need to change your title? I used to call you baby, but you really don't love me anymore. You won't even let me call you baby."

Ana snorted, thinking uncontrollably and tears streaming down one by one.

"Are you blaming your mother for not accompanying you? That's right. How can there be an incompetent mother like me in this world who is always not around her son?"

Asseth took out a handkerchief and quickly caught the broken tears with quick eyes and hands, feeling helpless and distressed.

"How could it be? You are the best mother in the world, and I love you so much."

"Mom knows, mom loves you too, loves you very much. My baby is mom's favorite child, but mom is also a mother for the first time, and she didn't do well at all. When she was young, she was playful and ran around outside. Now I’m just too playful and never go home.”

Anna couldn't control it anymore, she opened her arms and hugged Asseth, and cried bitterly on Ass's shoulder.

Aces didn't expect Anna to cry so hard, so he subconsciously hugged her and comforted her softly.

"That's not the case. I think my life is very good, and my mother loves me very much. The love she gives me gives me enough confidence to face the future, so I won't be sad even if she is not with me. Because I know her heart will always care about me.”

Anna's crying gradually weakened, and she changed her position, exposing her ears, as if listening to what Ass had to say.

Aces patted her back and continued:

"I am also a child for the first time, and I also don't know how to be a good child. I don't know if my growth will disappoint you."

"Fortunately, I have a mother who loves me very much. She gives me so much love, support and trust that I no longer worry about not doing well."

Assel paused, gently pulled Anna away, and looked into her eyes.

"Because I know she will love me unconditionally, just like I love her unconditionally."

Anna looked at Asseth blankly.

After a long while, she suppressed her words - "Your cousin is right."

Artes didn't understand her confusion and was about to ask, but Anna came to his senses and grabbed Artes' arm, trying to find out about the current status of his relationship.

"Why didn't I see Severus when I came back this time? How is he doing lately?"

Aces frowned imperceptibly, then relaxed quickly, with a lingering smile in his eyes.

"Sifta...he has been very busy recently and can't spare time to meet with me. I can only stay at home and wait for a while."

Anna sniffed and slapped Ass in the face.

"You're worthless. If he doesn't have time, can't you take the time to find him? When you're in a relationship, you have to take the initiative, so can't you take the initiative?"

Aces touched his nose.

He has taken the initiative enough. If he still takes the initiative, Sif will be able to hug the crucible and run away tomorrow.

Tsk, maybe there is no need for tomorrow, the potions master is very efficient, so he will probably run away tonight.
