[HP] If youth has an ageless face

"I met Matthew when I went to the team to go through the formalities today."

Edwina pondered for a moment: "You know everything?"

Ulea sat down on her sofa: "He is a person with very good conditions: a popular Quidditch superstar, with both fame and fortune. Indeed, he has been asking me about you indirectly since a long time ago. Now that I think about it , His pursuit of you should not be on a whim."

"So what's the problem?"

"Do you love him?"

"No." Edwinra replied calmly, "I have already decided to agree to him. The only reason for agreeing to him is that I hope my son can grow up in a good environment. Tell the truth, Uriah , I don't think I can be a good mother, I'm not the kind of wife and mother. But Matthew seems to be a man of promise, I don't expect him to treat Darren's children as his own, but he is willing to take care of and educate him, That's enough."

"If you wait a little longer, there may not be better choices." Yulia persuaded after a moment of silence, "Matthew is good. But... if you don't have any feelings for him, it will be a bad thing." A happy marriage."

"A better choice? Not necessarily. Another advantage of Matthew is that he has a good family background, which means that we can have a solid material foundation. After finally getting through the debt crisis, I really don't want my life Had a second experience with tight pockets. Money is a big thing to me."

Uriah was speechless.

"However, I won't marry him until at least three months after the baby is born." Edwina emphasized emphatically, "I don't need the Zabini family to admit his blood or anything, but I don't want him to be married either." My child was suspected from birth as the result of my infidelity in marriage."

Her tone was very calm, but every word made Uriah tremble with fear.

"They won't," he said dryly, then paused. "I hope he loves more than your looks."

"It doesn't matter. The essence of marriage is the exchange of interests."

"Edwin La—"

"I'm telling the truth," she insisted, "and we'll be a couple who share our vision and care about each other. Maybe on rare occasions I'll feel lonely from this long, uneventful life. But I'll always remember There was a moment when I was young. Unlike those who pretended to be happy all their lives, I once waited for someone who loved me."

Uriah watched as her eyes slowly turned red as tears rolled down her beautiful face.Many years ago, the young and energetic Uriah had accused Edwinra of being only seductive/seductive.At that time, he was not sensible enough, and he believed that the matter between his sister and Rookwood made him lose face. After joining the team and slowly taking up his own responsibilities, Uriah realized that not everyone has the courage to compromise. And keep a firm grip on your goals.

"I'm sorry." Ulea said sincerely after many years.

Edwin wiped away his tears: "There is one more thing I want to ask you."

"what?"

"Kayla," she said, "she doesn't like me for understandable reasons—don't rush to contradict me—but she's been very good to you. Career has suggested a lot. She may not be a good sister-in-law to me, but she is really a good wife to you."

Uriah understood what she meant.He and Keira fell into a cold war after that dispute. He knew that her fault was not entirely her fault, but when he thought of the accusations she made against Edwina's relationship with him, Ulea could not let go easily: "I I know it. I'll take care of it."

Edwin frowned.Yulia patted her on the head first: "Pay attention to your body, just take care of yourself, and don't worry about other things. By the way, you can still go home and live at any time after I leave England."

She looked at him in surprise.

"What's the matter? Do you think I'll sell the house? I plan to retire and come back to be a coach!" Ulea comforted, "This time it's not a farewell, my little sister."

Darren and Edwina's baby was born at St. Mungo's Hospital a few months later, and the only ones waiting outside the ward were Uriah and Sylvia.

"Boy." Sylvia looked very disappointed, "I wanted to sign up to be a godmother."

"Boys are good." Yulia hugged his nephew happily and leaned forward, "Hey, have you figured out what his name is? How about Darren, like his father? Darren Zabini II World? Of course, I'd appreciate it if you'd use my name—"

"Brace."

Ulea's words suddenly choked, he and Sylvia looked at each other, both of them were at a loss.

"What's the history of it, my dear?" asked Sylvia.

"That's the name of the mountain where Darren and I honeymooned." Edwin was tired but not at all sleepy. "Show me him."

"Here, he has brown hair and blue eyes. He will be a handsome guy when he grows up." Ulea taught her how to hold the child, "You must hold his neck with your hands, don't use too much force. Um, yes, hold on... "

Blaise's little hand was tightly clenched into a small fist, and she tapped it tenderly, lest she hurt the child.

If Darren was here, he would be very happy.

She shook the child and turned to Uriah, "Please send a letter to Matthew for me."

"So fast?" Sylvia blurted out.

"Set the date in three months. Keep the ceremony simple." She finished calmly, and then told Sylvia, "I must keep my promise, so that I can also ask him to keep his promise."
