Harry Potter: Reunion with the Enemy

September 5th Cloudy

It is the greatest tragedy for a person to depend on people or things that he cannot control for his happiness and financial power. Every day after I quit my job and married Matthew, I regretted this decision.

I can't believe that three years ago I was one of the best surgeons in the hospital, but now I need anti-anxiety medication to fall asleep every day. Although my main task these days is to find a new tutor for Alex, I can't help but sneak out to drink. It feels so good to drown my consciousness and take away all my worries.

After becoming a housewife, I spend every day in anxiety, anxiety, and anxiety.

I almost messed up again. As of yesterday, I have interviewed nearly a dozen tutors who claim to have graduated from prestigious schools, but I still can't make a decision. If Alex still can't get the proper guidance from the tutor this time and misses the opportunity to go to a private school, Matthew will definitely be furious again.

Fortunately, I found a lifeline with two young boys who came to interview for the tutoring position today.

There was a huge traffic jam when I was sending Alex to school, which ruined my good mood for the whole morning. But I don’t know why, as soon as I saw these two handsome boys - they came to the interview and even thoughtfully brought me drinks and desserts from a nearby coffee shop - my mood seemed to brighten up in an instant.

The boy with light blond hair looked well dressed. Although I didn't recognize the brand of his suit, I was sure that the cut and fabric revealed that it was expensive. Please, please, I must not let the neighbors think that our family just hired a cheap tutor. Even if Alex is the child of Matthew and his ex-wife, he is still my son.

Yes, my ex-wife’s child is my son.

When interviewing several other tutors before, I always asked them questions about private school entrance exams and interviews, and then judged their familiarity with the admission rules of prestigious schools, although the tutor who was driven away by Alex before was also recruited by me in this way.

But - my God, I think that boy with light blond hair is a real educator! I briefly introduced his son's age, date of birth and other small information to him, and then showed him some of Alex's previous short writing works. Mr. Malfoy was able to describe his personality and characteristics relatively accurately, and even echoed some of his childhood experiences.

Mr. Malfoy seemed to be able to predict everything. He hadn't even really met Alex, but he already knew most of Alex's characteristics. Maybe I paid too much attention to the admission process of prestigious schools, but knew little about these teachers who really knew the children's personalities.

Before this, Matthew and I had always wanted to hide Alex's history of depression from others, but now I see hope. This time, the tutor may not only be able to lead Alex into a private school, but may even help heal his mental illness with the help of this teacher.

The boy with emerald green eyes was also very special. Although his flying hair and scar on his forehead made him look not as well-behaved as Mr. Malfoy, he looked like a reliable boy.

Compared to Mr. Malfoy's expertise in subjects such as education and mathematics, Mr. Potter demonstrated his superb level in squash. His reaction speed, skills and strength were truly amazing.

In order to give the child a competitive skill when applying to prestigious schools, if Alex can join the school team through squash and obtain a place in the JCT Youth Championship early, this will undoubtedly be sufficient preparation for his future career.

Although I suspected that Matthew was often having affairs outside, I did not dare to raise any objection. After all, all my pocket money now depended on Matthew transferring money to my card. If he wanted to, he could cut off my financial resources and make me lose face at the upcoming charity party, so that I would not be able to sit at the distinguished main table.

Fortunately, Mr. Potter and Mr. Malfoy offered a very reasonable tutoring fee, even half of what other tutors quoted. That was great. I could probably spend the money I saved in a nearby bar. For a pregnant woman, alcoholism is a very dangerous thing. As a former doctor, I am very aware of this. But for someone who has no say in the family, the momentary pleasure provided by these alcohols is also precious.

In order to report my progress in finding a tutor to Matthew as soon as possible, and to let the new tutor and Alex get along well, I asked Mr. Potter and Mr. Malfoy to stay and meet with them. Thank God, when I went to Matthew's living room to deliver drinks, I saw that they had a good chat with the two new tutors, and it seemed that this time it would be finalized soon.

I was so confident that these two gentlemen of taste could bring some turnaround to our family. Compared to other visitors who always praised the fine wine and jewelry displayed in our home, these two gentlemen actually noticed the most unique collection in the house - a silver sword, and expressed great interest in it.

This exquisite silver sword is impeccable in appearance, with smooth lines and delicate patterns that all hint at the superb craftsmanship behind it. Although I don't know where Matthew bought this silver sword, after hanging this exquisite decoration at home, the hedge fund he managed achieved brilliant results. Matthew also borrowed a joke commonly used by investors to describe this sword, calling it the "Sword of Damocles."

In my opinion, it is a symbol of good luck. Although Alex's depression and my anorexia broke out almost at the same time after it came to our home, the fund's long-term performance and continuous management fees have given our family a more solid foundation.

Matthew seemed reluctant to reveal more when faced with Mr. Malfoy's inquiry about the origin of the silver sword - he was always like this, unwilling to share any resources in his hands, even those insignificant resources about the collection.

I was already six months pregnant and I started to suffer from anorexia, dizziness and vomiting again, but after Matthew told me in an unquestionable tone that he wanted to have another child, I knew I couldn't refuse.

Mr. Potter and Mr. Malfoy promised to provide tutoring services at home as soon as possible when they left. With these two new helpers, I believe that my recent days will be much easier. After crossing out the item "finding a tutor" from my schedule, I can focus on doing other things.
