[HP] Once Upon a Time in England

Chapter 35 Kissing the Devil

Edmund's perfect mask cracked for a moment after hearing that she had thrown herself into the trap and returned to Rozier's side.

"She's always had a good idea."

"Don't act as if you know her well."

"At least better than you, Blake. I've seen her change."

Under the watchful eyes of Edgar and the others, Sirius held his breath and gave up attacking Edmund.

"Rozier is a lunatic. Her thoughts cannot be measured by ordinary people's thinking, otherwise she will find it difficult to understand." Edmund ignored him and continued, "Did Hyacinth tell you, Rosie?" Kiel kept her by his side to find the old feeling of being surrounded by friends?"

"Isn't that true?"

"I have some doubts."

-1983-

Cornelia came and went freely at Parkinson's Manor, and she did not notify in advance of her visit today.

"Why are you here today?"

"Blake suffered a disaster." She threw out the big news happily, "he was hit by a sharp blow and disappeared, and his life and death are unknown now."

"Snape?"

"That's right. Enemies are jealous when they meet." Rozier even hummed, "Is this good news for you?" Before Edmund could answer, "I'll tell her the news .”

Black could escape from the Death Eaters once, twice, but not forever.Bloodshed is an inevitable sacrifice in fighting the Dark Lord, death is but a slightly higher price to pay.

Edmund did feel a little relieved by the news, but he was more concerned about Rozier's overly complacent expression.What good was Blake dead to her?

He approached her studio step by step, and through the half-open door, he saw her standing in front of the easel holding a palette, with her back to Rozier, and the pen in her hand was applying paint at a leisurely pace.

"Besides," Rozier was still talking, "Marlene McKinnon signed St. Mungo's notice to save his life at all costs—in what capacity do you think she acquired the right to sign Woolen cloth?"

It was misty and rainy outside the window, but her frozen heart didn't melt half of the bad news Rozier brought, she was even happy for him, and of course, there was also a little sadness for herself.Now is the time to let him go, he has found someone better and more suitable for him.After wandering on the line of life and death this time, he should not refuse another person to enter his life.After all, in the eyes of their people, she has been dead for four years.All corpses should be turned into bones and returned to dust.Memory is just memory, no matter how beautiful it is, it will not go back in time.Besides, he is so young, there is no need to wait for someone who is destined not to return.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Rozier was curious about her indifference.

"Bless them." She saw in the vision the brilliant life he would continue, and now she wanted something else, "You don't have to tell me about him anymore."

"You don't want to hear? Are you afraid that you will be distressed and sad?"

"I don't care." She only cared about whether she could let Ada grow up smoothly and escape the threat of Rozier forever.If possible, she also hoped that Wesen would not let Rozier control him... If not, she would stay here and stay with him until the last moment.

This war will always end.Either the Dark Lord defeated Dumbledore, or the Order of the Phoenix wiped out all Death Eaters.Everyone will usher in their own ending, whether it is good or bad, and she is no exception.

"Really? You figured it out."

"If I say yes, what are you going to do with me?"

"What should I do? Don't talk stupidly, of course you will continue your current life... there is only a small change."

"You promised me." She paused her drawing and turned to look at Rozier.

"Everything I promised will be fulfilled, so you don't have to worry about that." Rozier stared at her intently. There was a rift between them, and the trust was long gone.But Cornelia never cared about such minutiae.

"it is good."

"He didn't protect you well, and he didn't find you." The other party put her shoulders affectionately, as if they were still friends, "His love for you is fake, it's just lip service. It's human nature, Also fated: Eternal? That doesn't exist."

Her overly focused eyes made her smell a little ominous: "What do you mean by this?"

Rozier smiled lightly, and slowly pinned the two strands of hair scattered on her cheeks behind her ears, and approached her suddenly when she was not prepared.

"Stay away from me!" She suddenly pushed Rozier away in shock, the fragrance of the perfume used by the other party lingering around her nose.

"Why so surprised?" Rozier wiped his lips with his fingers and smiled sweetly, "Why can't I, huh?"

This scene fell into the eyes of Edmund, who was peeping outside the door, and he was struck by lightning.
