[HP] If youth has an ageless face
Chapter 132 131
When he learned that Antonio's ex-wife was French, Edwin was quite afraid of her.The French can always easily cause an uproar, with Lopez in front and Chatillon in the back.And now... She brushed off the grass clippings and iris petals stuck to her dress, and walked towards the gazebo deep in the garden.
Seeing her, Christian talked about the hyacinth in his hand with a little regret: "Isabella likes this flower very much. I used to dislike its strong fragrance, so I never allowed her to plant it in the garden, and only allowed her to grow it in my room. put two pots in it. Isabella once quarreled with me about it, and said that she must marry a husband who would plant hundreds of hyacinths for her. Chatillon seemed to have fulfilled her wish, but The price is too high."
Edwina couldn't comfort him: "The husband and wife attended Chatillon's banquet. I'm afraid Antonio recognized me as early as that time."
"Really?" When she mentioned Chatillon, Christian's eyes sharpened instantly. "He knew him?"
"Has he never mentioned it to you?"
"As I said, there is only one secret between us, that's all." Christian played with the hyacinth in his hand, "That Mrs. Meyer seems to hate you?"
"I'm also curious about why. There are many people who hate me. It would be too naive to divorce her just because of me."
"It's not necessarily impossible. She seems to be a high-spirited person, and as the divorced party, she will be unhappy anyway." Christian noticed her suspicious gaze and smiled, "But I never married. Married, you just think I'm talking nonsense."
"If I ask the Ministry of Magic to intervene in this old case," Edwinra asked, "will you be my witness?"
"Is it possible for me to refuse?" Christian asked with a smile, "Speaking of which, I'm also an accomplice. Would you be willing to intercede for me and give me a lighter punishment?"
She got closer and looked up into his eyes: "If you didn't lie, you would. After all, you also helped me."
Christian's eyelashes trembled slightly, and there seemed to be many emotions in his eyes, but Edwin was unable to identify any of them.Then, caught off guard, he suddenly lowered his head to catch her lips.
Edwina had expected it a long time ago, and avoided it lightly, so the kiss landed on her earlobe awkwardly.
"Do you think now is the time to flirt?" She calmly raised her hand to adjust the earrings, "We should go."
Although they had only been away for a day, Blaise was already waiting anxiously.As soon as he saw Edwina, he rushed forward, but stopped suddenly when he saw the person behind her: "This..."
"Christian." Edwina briefly introduced, "An old friend who helped me a lot this time."
Blaise still looked puzzled, but there were more important things in front of him. He didn't pursue Christian's identity: "I've been to the Ministry of Magic."
Christian has already walked towards the balcony on the side of the living room with interest, pretending to be looking at the garden.
"How about it?"
"Fudge is really as unreliable as you said. As soon as I tested him, he said that I was thinking too much, and then used words like 'don't talk nonsense, kid' to fool me." Blaise said angrily, "I can't into Auror Command, but after waiting in the lobby for a while, I saw Kingsley."
"I remember he was an Auror?"
"Yes, he was the one responsible for arresting Black before. In short, I stopped him. He half-believed my words, but promised to keep an eye on his whereabouts in private."
"Can he be trusted?"
"Kingsley has been chasing Black for years, but has not made any progress. Considering that he is a very prestigious Auror, there must be another mystery behind this matter."
"Did he deliberately not check?"
"That's right." Blaise glanced at her. "My intuition tells me that both of them are from Dumbledore's side. From this, I can infer that Kingsley is credible."
"Very good." Edwina smiled with satisfaction, and did not question his decision at all, which made Blaise heave a sigh of relief, and secretly felt a little joyful about receiving the award.
"Are you sure Antonio will come back?"
"He doesn't need to go home, but he has to go back to the UK and go to his office to destroy or take away some things that are inconvenient for others to handle. Otherwise, even if he fled back to Bulgaria, the people there would not make him feel better."
Blaise nodded frequently.Edwin looked at him, and was a little surprised to find that he was very calm:
"Aren't you angry?"
"I had a premonition that he was not a simple person." Blaise explained, "When he is chasing after you and is sure to marry you, I feel very strange."
"Fortunately, I thought it was love at first sight." She laughed at herself, "I still remember that he predicted to me that the mysterious man would come back to me in front of my hospital bed, and said that he could take us out of England for asylum at that time—"
Her words stopped abruptly, and Blaise had already expressed her doubts: "Why is he so sure that the mysterious man will come back?"
The two looked at each other.
"He said," she tried to dig out Antonio's original statement from the depths of her memory, "something happened at Hogwarts."
"That's right. The thing about Professor Quirrell." Blaise's eyes slowly lit up. "He's really well-informed, isn't he?"
After a moment of silence, Edwin walked quickly towards the fireplace: "It seems that I have to go to the Ministry of Magic to find Kingsley myself."
Seeing her, Christian talked about the hyacinth in his hand with a little regret: "Isabella likes this flower very much. I used to dislike its strong fragrance, so I never allowed her to plant it in the garden, and only allowed her to grow it in my room. put two pots in it.
