Chapter 677 Engagement

"So... you're engaged?"

Isobel lay quietly on the bed, slowly raised his left hand, spread five fingers in front of his eyes, and stared at the silver ring on his ring finger, still feeling unreal.

A simple engagement ceremony.

Family and friends of both parties were not present.

The Nicols were the only witnesses of their engagement, and they held a very small party in the hall of LeMay's house.

It feels incredible to think about it now.

"What are you thinking?" Albert pushed open the door, looked at the girl lying on the bed staring at the ring in a daze, and asked with a smile.

"It's nothing, I just think it's incredible. Mom would be furious if she knew that I was secretly engaged to you." Isobel withdrew his arm, sighed softly, still worrying about how to solve this matter.

"Don't worry, Mrs. McDougal won't be angry." Albert comforted softly.

"How do you know?" Isobel couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Albert. She is a natural master of memory, and she has a better grasp of people's hearts than others. How could she not know what her mother is thinking, even though I don't object to the matter between the two of you, but if you know that your daughter is engaged to someone else in private, and you haven't notified her, you will be very angry!

"Actually, Mrs. McDougal already knew about it."

Under Isobel's astonished gaze, Albert told Isobel about Daisy and Herb's operations.

Shortly after Albert went to France, the Andersons asked Shera to send a letter to Mrs. McDougall, inviting her to come to their home to discuss their engagement and marriage.

"You didn't tell me!"

Isobel flung Albert down on the bed, "Do you know, I've been worrying about how to explain our engagement to my mother."

"Isn't this a surprise for you?" Albert blinked innocently, "They think it's appropriate for the LeMays to host this engagement ceremony."

"Your family seems to be in a hurry!" Isobel asked a little confused.

"They knew my prophecy and wanted us to leave the UK after getting married and go abroad to escape the coming storm." Albert explained.

"Did you tell them?"

Isobel was very surprised by what the Andersons did.

You must know that their son is still a child, and he is still several years away from becoming an adult. How afraid are they that their son will not be able to marry a wife?

"Yes."

Albert looked sideways at Isobel's small face, and said with a smile: "They probably think that after I get married, I will have concerns, will put family first, and will not take risks easily, so they urge me like this Hurry up and marry you, and after I graduate from school, the whole family will leave England, a place of right and wrong."

"You didn't tell them that you don't plan to leave the UK." Isobel asked slightly raising his eyebrows.

"Yes. But, they also have their own ideas, don't they?"

Albert was very aware of the small thoughts of his family, and he didn't care too much. He is not an impulsive person, and he wants to kill himself more than anyone else.

After all, a good life has just begun, who would not want to risk their own life to find excitement?

"Well, since we're engaged, we're not allowed to mess around anymore." Isobel suddenly remembered something, poked Albert's chest with his fingers and reminded: "Your two or three girlfriends I'm afraid that my wish will come to nothing."

"It's as if I'm always messing around." Albert protested dissatisfied. He is a very dedicated man. Whenever he messes around, it is purely a slander to him.

Otherwise, how could you get engaged to Isobel so early?

"Miss Catherine from the United States seems to be interested in you. Miss Catherine is a great beauty!" Isobel began to count for Albert with his fingers, "I also saw you a while ago. Miss Louise, don't think I can't see that that girl of Veela blood has been fascinated by your handsomeness, talent and reputation."

"We are just ordinary pen pals." Albert reminded silently.

"That's just your wishful thinking." Isobel snorted disdainfully, and continued, "And my poor stupid sister Katrina, she has always had a crush on you, I dare say that as long as you use some sweet words, I'm sure we'll be able to get her soon."

"If you dare to have any unreasonable thoughts about Katrina!" Isobel talked about his sister, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Ahem, you are thinking too much. Katrina is your sister, and she is not as beautiful as you." Albert was very helpless. He and Louise were just ordinary pen pals. The number of times they met could be counted by fingers I can count them. The relationship with Catherine is just a cooperative relationship, and he has never thought of going to the United States again.

As for Katrina, Albert didn't have much idea after he got to Isobel. Although sisters... ahem, it's impossible to know, and he is not a person who likes to die.

"Hmph! There has never been a so-called pure boyfriend-boyfriend relationship in this world. As long as you get to know each other well and get along with each other for a long time, things will always change." Isobel saw this kind of thing quite clearly, "And your Gran Findo's female friend, it seems to be called Hermione Granger, I dare say when she is older..."

Albert stared at his fiancée dumbfounded. Although he didn't want to admit it, Isobel's last sentence was really reasonable.

"According to what you're saying, shouldn't we get engaged later?" Albert said jokingly, "In this way, there might be a chance to get two or three girlfriends before we get married!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Albert's face was held by two hands, and then he kept rubbing it.

"That's a pity, we're already engaged." The girl reminded with a smile, "I'm afraid your wish will be shattered."

Isobel also thinks it is good to get engaged in advance. After all, Albert had two more years at Hogwarts, and God knew what would happen during that time.

As Albert began to show his talents and achieve achievements, coupled with his gentle and peaceful temperament, and his pockets full of Galleons, he looked like a sweet cake, which attracted countless girls. I want to pounce on it and take a bite.

However, Isobel obviously didn't intend to share this sweet cake with anyone.

After the lips of the two parted, Albert suddenly said: "By the way, the letter from the school has arrived. I am now a prefect, and I don't need to secretly use the prefect's bathroom anymore."

"When are we going back to England?" Isobel changed the subject.

"In two days, we have to tell Mr. Nico about this in advance, and then go to Diagon Alley to make up the things we need for this semester." Albert didn't plan to stay at Nico's house until At the end of the summer vacation, I always need to find time to go back and spend time with my family.

After all, after he graduates from school, such time will become less, and Isobel is obviously not worried about her family.
