[HP] If youth has an ageless face

The pale light of St. Mungo's hit her face, making her already beautiful features even more dazzling.She had a calm expression, and Ethan suddenly hated her plain expression, which made his disturbed mind even more innocent and childish.

"I'm sorry," she stared at him intently, but mercilessly spit out the words she had already considered, "I let you down."

"Disappointed? Not to mention. You are not who you were then, and I am no longer who I used to be."

Edwina raised his head slightly and looked at him: "Yes, I reminded you, but unfortunately you didn't listen. The authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear. To a certain extent, you made the same mistake as Sylvia."

Ethan couldn't bear it anymore, he stepped forward and grabbed her, holding her waist tightly while lifting her chin with the other hand: "This is why you slandered me? Edwin La , you don’t need to love me, but why do you forcefully push me to another person whom I don’t love?”

"Because," her eyes were still not flustered, "that will allow you to see your heart clearly."

"You are such a virtuous wife." He smiled wryly.

Edwin fell silent.

Ethan shook his head slowly: "But I didn't touch her."

Surprise finally came into her eyes.

"I won't force myself to choose what I want, even if I don't get what I want." Ethan stroked her hair, "I'll give you what you want, I'll accept what you hate, but Are you never going to give me a place?"

"You know the answer."

He looked at her fixedly.

"Sorry." She has indeed changed a lot, and she can still smile calmly in the face of such a situation, "I can't give you what you want."

Ethan suddenly leaned over and kissed her lips.Edwin was taken aback and flinched slightly, but did not resist.After the initial surprise, she quickly regained her senses, and even raised her hand to slowly stroke his hair and cheek, such an intimate contact could not be easier for her.She had had so many husbands and kissed so many people, it was just a normal kiss, nothing different - and she responded mechanically, without passion.She is an excellent actress who is good at hiding her true heart.This is both precaution and self-protection.

"I understand." The kiss came to an abrupt end, and Ethan let go of her bewilderedly, and took a step back under her slightly bewildered gaze, "I know that time cannot be turned back. But Edwin, if you come again Once, I hope I don't meet you."

She looked at him blankly.

"I will leave for Egypt in a few days, and my business will be developed there." He suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and slowly said his decision, "Even if I return to England for a short time, I will not return to Zazak Beanie Manor." Ethan looked back at her, at this time, more than ten years had passed since their first meeting, he had grown from a half-grown child to a young man who could take care of himself, but time seemed to be frozen in her eyes In between, without hurting her at all, "If one day you fall in love with someone else and want to leave me completely, just send me a divorce agreement. In any case, Blaise will be my heir, as you wish .”

Before she could respond, Ethan turned and left.He knew she wouldn't come after him and ask him to stay - she would never do that, Sean was wrong in judging, she was never a clinging dodder - so what was he expecting, more disappointment ?

The next day Edwina went to St. Mungo's to pick up Sylvia as she had promised. She didn't talk about what Ethan said yesterday, and Sylvia rarely noticed her silence.

"Where are you going?" Edwin asked, "If you don't plan to go home, you can stay with me temporarily..."

"Of course I want to go back." Sylvia rejected her offer, "I'm still the righteous Mrs. Greengrass, and my daughter is still in his hands—I shouldn't be the one who ran away."

Last night should have been a long, sleepless night for her as well.No matter what kind of reversals her mood had experienced, Sylvia had clearly made up her mind today.She's back on her feet and fighting spirit, which is a good thing anyway.Before the horn blows, the cowardly side will inevitably be defeated first.

"Very good." Edwin pulled a smile, "I'll take you back."

Unexpectedly, they ran into an embarrassing scene outside Greengrass' house—Sean was pulling with the girl, and he seemed to want to get away, but she begged and entangled endlessly.

This girl should have been detained by the Ministry of Magic, but it doesn't seem surprising that she is here. After all, this is just a jealousy between women. Strictly speaking, it is still Greengrass's family business. The Ministry of Magic probably turned a blind eye. Just let her out.

It's just that they let her go, or someone went to save her.

"What are you doing?" Edwin asked after watching the show with great interest.Seeing them suddenly appear, the girl was startled, and couldn't help but take a step back.But Sean came forward, and stopped awkwardly when he saw Sylvia's face:

"You're back."

"A rare visitor." Sylvia's eyes fell on the girl's young and beautiful face, with a lukewarm smile on the corner of her mouth.

She seemed to hide behind Sean in extreme panic, as if she was terrified to death.

"If you've had enough acting, just stop as soon as it's good, so as not to cause trouble and let others see the joke." Sylvia smiled and turned to Sean, "It's the same with you. Do things cleanly, otherwise you will embarrass yourself .”

After saying these two words, Sylvia's gaze fell on the girl leisurely again, with a half-smile, neither angry nor sad, then she suddenly withdrew her gaze, walked around them and walked into the house on her own.Edwin took a step back, and she turned to look at the girl, only to see that she was biting her lower lip, with an expression of resignation still on her face.

On the day of departure, Ethan deliberately woke up early to avoid the embarrassment of being relatively silent.The luggage he was taking away had been packed the night before, so he only had to go through it again.For some reason, he didn't tell Blaise that he was leaving, and he tried to stop himself from thinking about how Edwin Rah would explain his leaving without saying goodbye-maybe that was the best way, their parting As calm and restrained as their encounter.

After packing up and stepping out of the house to leave, Ethan still couldn't help but look back at their bedroom.To his surprise, Edwina was standing on the balcony at some point, looking towards him.

The golden sun cast a layer of tender light on her face. She seemed not used to such a dazzling morning glow, she squinted her eyes slightly, and leaned on the railing with her arms folded, with a peaceful expression.

Ethan stared at her.He didn't know if she was looking at him, and he didn't know how gentle and indifferent was in her expression despite Chaoyang's embellishment.

He looked back with difficulty, gave a few simple instructions to the servants, and then walked towards the courtyard gate.He knew that with every step he took, he was getting farther and farther away from her, and maybe he would never have the chance to meet again in this life.He always seems to be unconsciously evaluating the distance between himself and her, but unfortunately this distance cannot be measured.Sometimes he mistakenly thinks that she is close at hand, but in fact she is still standing in an unreachable place, like a flower in the mirror or the moon in the water, which cannot be touched but can only be seen from a distance.

If I appeared in front of you with another identity, would you possibly fall in love with me?

He thought he knew the answer to that question too.

The author has something to say:

1. Ethan will not die for the time being, but will not appear in the short term.

2. Blaise is going to Hogwarts soon!This means that Darren has been cold for almost 12 years o(╯□╰)o
