[HP] Hogwarts Muggle University

Although the internal strife in the Black family is ups and downs, it is not known to outsiders.In less than a month, Walburga and Olein easily settled the dispute and firmly held the power of the company in their own hands.Signus and Deruela were forced to accept the plan proposed by Walburga before.

After learning the news, Bella felt a little complicated.

"Don't think too much." Narcissa said while packing her luggage, "whatever should come will always come."

Bella knew that what Narcissa said was right: "Again, is it really okay for you to make such a big show?"

"I'm developing my own business." Narcissa didn't take it seriously at all. She didn't think Walburga and Olaine would allow the two sisters to enter the core of the company, so planning ahead became a must.

"Okay." Bella pressed. "How are you and Lucius?"

"Still frozen for now." Narcissa replied.

Narcissa was going to New York to play a guest role on an episode of America's Next Top Model.Although everyone knows that this kind of show is actually just acting according to the script, it will be a good opportunity for Narcissa to enter the fashion industry.

"Oh, that's right." Narcissa thought of one more thing, she seemed a little hesitant, "I heard...uh...he got very close to someone recently."

Bella looked over alertly: "Who?"

"Heptz Barsmith," said Narcissa. "She's on the school board and descended from one of the four founders of the school."

"That divorced single woman in her 30s?" Bella sneered, "Will Tom get close to her?"

Narcissa hesitated for a moment: "I saw them come out of the bar together last week, and then Tom got into her car—" Bella's eyes suddenly became like blades, and Narcissa insisted, "Okay , I don't know what you think, but I think you need to pay attention..."

"He won't do that," Bella replied quickly. "Hogwarts' retention is not that important to him."

Narcissa looked at her back with pity: Everyone knew that Tom's biggest dream was to stay at Hogwarts as a professor.Although no one knew why, he never bothered to hide his ambition.

"He knew you liked her, but he never responded—"

"What do you mean?" Bella asked immediately, and Narcissa shrugged:

"If I were you, I would think carefully about my relationship with him." She bent down to zip up the suitcase, and swallowed the second half of her sentence rationally:

Don't be fooled.

James decided to take a brave first step today.

"Lily!" He stopped her without hesitation after the chemistry class, and made up his mind to ask her to go to the movies at night, or have a cup of coffee together in the afternoon, anyway, there must be a date——

"What's wrong?" She looked at James with some surprise, her green eyes widening.

"Uh..." James felt his face burning at an alarming rate, and at the same time he caught a glimpse of Snape in the corner of the classroom, still dawdling to pack his things, and kept looking at them, "You know Le Why did James leave school?"

As soon as the words came out, he wished he could bite his tongue off.

"Dropped?" Lily repeated in surprise, "I haven't seen him for a long time, but he actually dropped out? I don't even know it yet!"

James wished he could slap himself backhanded, so he had no choice but to answer angrily: "Sirius and I also found out by accident. Anyway, I just want to ask you if you know the reason, after all, Remus never He has been avoiding us since the beginning of this semester."

"I have no idea." Lily shook her head. "I didn't have any classes with him this semester. I thought he was just busy."

James twitched the corner of his mouth dryly, realizing that his dating plan was bound to fail: "You're going to keep this a secret, right? I don't think he wants us to know these things."

"I will." Lily promised, "If you have any news, please let me know, okay?"

"Okay," James said dejectedly.He did two things wrong: first, he failed to make an appointment with Lily; second, he betrayed the fact that Remus had dropped out of school.

This is really bad.

"Speaking of which," Lily rummaged through her schoolbag for a while, and then took out a card, "Next week, the study will hold a photography exhibition, which contains the photos I took. This is the time and place of the exhibition, assuming you have If empty..."

James felt that his heart was injected with a steady stream of happiness, and he was almost floating: "Of course I will go!" The corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably, and Lily smiled happily:

"Excellent, thank you. See you then."

"Will you be there? At the exhibition?" James couldn't believe his ears.

"Of course." Lily gave an affirmative answer, "Goodbye."

"Goodbye." James replied with a smirk.

That night, Bella watched Tom and the Smith woman walk into the bar arm in arm from the car.

She knows this bar.Tom never came here because he hated the loud music and the dazzling lights.

She stared at their backs, took out her mobile phone and sent Tom a message.

Perhaps because of shaking hands, she mistyped a short sentence countless times.

[Bella]: Are you free now?

The wait was so long that she bit her nails anxiously.After at least ten minutes, her phone screen finally lit up——

[Tom]: I'm busy.

Bella opened the car door and walked across the road into the bar in three steps at a time.The security guard at the door saw that she was dressed gorgeously, so he let her in without thinking too much.

At this moment she was grateful that these bars never had private rooms, so she easily caught Tom's figure in the booth in the corner.

They're not alone, but they're a little too close for normal conversation.

She saw the waiter pass by with their orders. Tom never drank cocktails, but this time he gladly took Smith's flamboyant drink.

Then Bella saw her pinch his cheek, and instead of resisting, he smiled.

She immediately looked away and entered a new line of words on the phone.

[Bella]: I have something to tell you about that paper.

She looked up and watched Tom take out the phone and glanced at it. Smith seemed reluctant to ask him to put it away, but this time Tom refused. He frowned and pressed a few times while talking to her. sentence.

When Bella's phone vibrated to indicate an incoming call, he got up and got rid of Smith and walked out of the booth.

Bella fled without hesitation.

Under the astonished eyes of the security guard, she quickly crossed the road and started her car as fast as she could.The screen of the mobile phone that was thrown on the co-pilot was always on. Less than three seconds after the call was disconnected because no one answered it, there was another new call request.

Bella held the steering wheel, she didn't cry.On the contrary, her eyes were unusually dry.
