Chapter 603 Settlement

"I'm going back to sleep."

Katrina was not interested in what her sister was talking about with her mother, and was about to get up and go upstairs to rest. In fact, she didn't want to continue to see Isobel showing off her boyfriend in front of her.

Mrs. McDougall looked at Katrina's back going upstairs, frowned slightly, and looked at Isobel again.

"Perhaps, we shouldn't talk about this topic." Isobel took a sip of the hot cocoa, "She probably... likes Albert a little bit."

Mrs. McDougall suddenly looked up at Isobel, suddenly not knowing what to say.

"I think Katrina should be considered a crush." ​​Isobel put down the cup and slowly stirred it with a silver spoon, "She entered the school in the same class as Albert, so she probably thinks that I... Anyway, don't expect me to let go."

"Who is he and your sister?" Mrs. McDougal asked in a low voice.

"It's probably a friend." Isobel shook his head and said, "Since Albert invited me to go on vacation together, you shouldn't be able to guess our relationship."

"Oh, what are these things!" Mrs. McDougal sighed softly. Ever since she found out that Isobel made her worry-free, she had neglected her daughter's education a bit.

"Have you talked to Katrina?" she asked.

"It's useless. Some things, the more you persuade her, the more resistant she will be. You can only wait for her to figure it out when she grows up, and the problem will be solved." Isobel looked up at his mother and said softly: "Probably I put so much pressure on Katrina that she tried to win me over everything."

"It seems that I, as a mother, have failed too much." Mrs. McDougal murmured, "You have worked hard all these years, and the Christmas holiday is fun. If it is really suitable, you must seize the opportunity. As for Katrina Over there, I will take more time to talk to her recently."

Katrina didn't know about this. She was burying her face in the pillow to let her mind go completely empty. What Isobel said just now couldn't help but sound in her mind: I think Cedric Diggory is pretty good.

Katrina naturally knew about Cedric Diggory, and the guy most talked about by her female companions recently was Cedric. They could always talk about his academics, his Quidditch, his good looks, and he was known to be a Hufflepuff prefect next term.

Katrina knew very well why they stopped talking about Albert, and it was never the fact that Albert had a girlfriend that made them retreat. It was because Isobel put too much pressure on everyone, and her sister was always so invulnerable, so few girls dared to slander her behind her back.

Switching to another girl, I am afraid that I will have to bear terrible pressure.

Perhaps, she should be proud of this, but if such a person is regarded as an opponent, no matter who they are, they will quickly realize that they have made a stupid decision.

yes!

Pretty stupid.

How could Katrina not realize that Albert invited Isobel to go on vacation together.

From the beginning, the other poor girls never got a chance.

She really deserves to be her older sister!

"Let it be!" Katrina said to herself.

…

Albert, who was far away on Tiber Avenue, was facing a similar problem. He could naturally see that Nia still had "hostility" towards Isobel.

I need to have a good talk with Nia, otherwise it will be more troublesome if I break out while on vacation.

A few minutes later, Albert gently knocked on Nia's door.

"Sleep!"

Nia turned her back to the door and said.

"Mom made some eggnog, I thought you'd like it, so I brought you some." The voice came in as the door opened.

"You bastard, what do you want to do!"

Nia sat up from the bed, glaring at the guy who broke into her room.

"Are you still angry with me because of Isobel?"

Albert put the eggnog on the bedside table, and pulled a chair for himself to sit by the bedside.

"Not at all!" Nia said angrily.

"I didn't intend to bribe you with eggnog." Albert suddenly grinned, "Actually, I can read minds!"

"It's just a trick to deceive people." Nia picked up the glass of eggnog and took a big sip. It was very sweet and basically had no alcohol taste, and her body became warm after drinking it.

"You're thinking now, I brought you a glass of wine tonight, isn't it malicious?" Albert put his hand on Nia's head and messed up her hair, "Okay, don't always Thinking about something stupid."

"Damn it, can you really read minds?" Nia reached out to open Albert's hand and muttered, "And I didn't think about anything messy."

"Drink, I'll ask you something."

"What's up?"

"Do you really hope that your brother and I will be alone in the future?" Albert's words made Nia freeze in place, and even secretly moved her head away from meeting his gaze.

"Although it is true that many wizards in the magic world did not get married in the end." Albert sighed softly.

"real?"

Albert reached out to fetch Tom over, rubbed his chubby belly and complained, "You really think so, it's really sad."

"Actually, the number of wizards in the British wizarding world is only a small number. There are only about 30 or 40 students in Hogwarts. There is no doubt that many wizards can't even find a suitable partner in the end. They find ordinary people, Or ending up alone is not uncommon."

"I'm just worried that you will be deceived by them." Nia held the wine glass in both hands, lowered her head and whispered.

"I can easily see if others are lying to me. As long as I want to, it is actually very difficult to be deceived by others." Albert explained softly.

"Anyway, you are right in everything. Since I was a child, I have never defeated you in this regard."

"Actually, wizards can't have too much contact with ordinary people." Albert didn't care about Nia's words, and said to himself, "The magic world in the whole world implements the "International Statute of Secrecy", and wizards need to sever contact with them." The vast majority of ordinary people's contacts, relatives are no exception."

"After graduation, you will leave us completely?" Nia suddenly raised her head and stared into Albert's eyes.

"The situation is not easy to say."

Albert looked at his sister and explained calmly: "Of course, there are actually many ways to circumvent the law. The law in the magic world is actually very loose. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is full of holes. In most cases, as long as you don't It’s not illegal to be discovered by other people.”

Nia opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"I can easily win the big prize through divination." Albert gave an example, "This practice is actually illegal in the magic world."

"Of course, if I pass you, it's not illegal." Albert continued: "After all, you won the lottery, not me. As I said before, I need your help. Would you like it? "

"what do you want to do?"

"Become my vest." Albert said mysteriously, "Help me manage the wealth of the ordinary world?"

"I thought you weren't greedy for money." Nia didn't forget Uncle Charlie who had already made a fortune.

"I'm not greedy, but people can't live without money." Albert said calmly, "With money, you can have more choices, live a more comfortable life, and do a lot of things you want to do."

"How do you plan to make money, buy lottery tickets." Nia asked curiously. Although she is not greedy for money, as Albert said, people cannot do without money.

"It's finance." Albert said softly, "I plan to speculate and make a fortune in the economic crisis. The time has not yet come. I will tell you what to do when the time comes."

"That's why you wanted to study finance?" Niya didn't understand those things at all.

"Yes." Albert seemed to see through his sister's thoughts, and comforted him, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, when the time comes when you win the lottery, you can spend money to find a professional team to help with these things."

"Okay, happy cooperation." Nia shook hands with Albert.

Hmph, you'll never leave me (us), unless you don't even want money.
