85 Chapter 85
A child!
Tom didn't know what to do. Now he has more than a little more 'common sense' than he did many years ago. For example, he knew that even if a Muggle mother gave birth to a Muggle, it was not necessarily a Muggle, and that the child was half a chance to be a wizard, for example, he no longer thought that the child was a continuation of his bloodline, would inherit his will and ideals, and would listen to him as a matter of course.
Importantly, he's not so determined to pursue wizard purebloods.
When these reasons came together, he had a pure expectation for the life in Baosi's belly. He began to imagine what color the child would have, what his eyes would look like, and what he would learn to speak the first time he spoke.
These things were ridiculously crowded in his head.
In addition to this conundrum, another thing is that he found that his control over the child was gradually weakening. After consulting with the relevant departments of the Ministry of Magic, Baosi proposed to the Ministry of Magic that he should not be close to the child and participate in all matters during the child's growth period. Since wizards cannot be divorced, this is due to the fact that the number of children in wizard families is decreasing, so the protection of children is strong.
Rose offers a bottle of replica potion. Although the real thing was gone, and the first copy had already been taken by him, she copied the second bottle in front of the Ministry of Magic, and when she held the vial of the dark green potion again, it was not happiness and joy, but anger and hatred.
"I am willing to do everything to prove that my husband has bad intentions towards my children and that he is dangerous." She said that no matter what the truth is, as long as she can prove it, she will cooperate with everything.
Marriage to Tom was not a pleasant memory, in fact, when she recalled that time again, it only strengthened her determination to divorce.
She has been hurt a lot, and she has been hovering between life and death several times. If there was no other way at that time, and there was even a long time when she didn't understand what he had done to her, then it was completely different now.
She didn't have to fear what he would do to her, everything was turned upside down.
"Mom." Red was still an assistant professor at Hogwarts, but he had spent a lot of time outside. Professor Sgollahhorn would have left after Christmas this year, and by this time next year he would already be Head of Slytherin. But suddenly, when Rose's pregnancy and divorce broke out, he began to come into frequent contact with the Ministry of Magic.
Paose understands that Red is helping him, and when she needs the Ministry of Magic to side with her, she must expect the Ministry of Magic to give her a satisfactory answer, but Red prefers to use another means to achieve her goal.
He wanted to be able to influence the Ministry of Magic instead of leaving his fate to someone else.
"Let's eat some fruit." Red travels back and forth between the castle and St. Mungo's every day, and he doesn't leave the care of her to anyone else, and by the time she looks back, her son has grown up to be an adult to rely on.
"Rhett." Rose looked back, she had just realized how cruel she had done to Red. "I'm going to disappoint you." She touched his face and said.
Her stubbornness determines the attitude of the mother and son towards Tom, whether it is hostility before or acceptance later, she does not give Red a chance to choose. If she did the right thing when Tom was dangerous, then when she decided that the whole family was going to accept him back, she didn't think about whether Red wanted to or not.
That's why Red has always been hostile to Tom.
Tom once thought that she, as a wife, would love him forever, but why didn't she make the same mistake? She thinks that Red will love his father for granted, that is the nature of father and son.
But she forgot what Tom's father was like in Rhett's eyes.
"No, Mom." Red held her hand like an adult and comforted her, "I can understand that you love your father, so you want me to love him too." "Don't get me wrong, I mean of course you can love him, and I'll take care of the rest." ”
That's why he was always vigilant, and even used a basilisk to attack Tom, because he took two lives. When she, the mother, threw herself into an obvious danger, his son could only be doubly vigilant.
“…… I'm sorry. "Rose couldn't say anything.
Late at night, as she lay on her hospital bed and looked at the ceiling, she slowly remembered what had happened decades after she met Tom. Later, she felt that everything could not be measured by love or hate.
Tom was very important to her, he was involved in almost half of her life, and a lot of things happened because of him, and he also gave her two children.
However, this does not mean that they will live as sweet as strawberry cake in the future, she can care about him, she can love him, and maybe they can still live together in the future.
It's just that she shouldn't dream like she did some time ago.
Like the bottle of contraceptive potion she had never suspected, there were many things Tom didn't know, and maybe it would be better not to know.
The door clicked.
Not surprised, Pao saw Tom push open the door and walk in, and everyone else in the room was asleep. He would put them to sleep soundly.
She kept watching him approach her.
"Tom." She said hello, and only she knew what she had thought when she called him. A lot of things, in a flash.
"Rose." He held her blanket down and said, "It only takes a minute." ”
Calling Red may not be able to help, so Ross let go of her hand.
"What do you want to say? Tom, I know you so well. She said without the slightest hint of sarcasm.
"Yes." He looked at her complicatedly, "Although I don't want to admit it." His gaze swept over her, still not the slightest heaving of her belly, where there was his second child.
- Maybe it's not too late.
He missed a lot, and some of it was impossible to do it again, like his life. But at least the child is, he hasn't been born yet, and there's something else he can do.
He had thought a lot before he came, maybe he could convince Pauss to believe him, maybe he could do something to win her trust. But now he is out of luck.
In front of someone who knows you so well, any language is pale.
Tom actually felt nostalgic, like he was back in his childhood. It was the same when he was with Rose, she didn't care about every lie he told and wouldn't listen to any of his orders. Her meaning is simple: what you want, you have to exchange for something else.
He used to trade food for her 'loyalty', the kind of loyalty that was like a game, but she was willing to play a loyal person for a while. It was because of her that he understood that loyalty could be exchanged for benefits.
Is there anything she wants now?
"I'm just here to say goodnight to you." Tom looked into Rose's eyes and slowly leaned down □ kissed her lightly on the forehead.
The two kept wrestling with each other, and when Ace closed her eyes slightly, Tom suddenly felt relieved.
He didn't say anything more, and quickly turned away.
The kiss after that was not so much a temptation as a handout.
She 'allowed' him to kiss her.
This means that there is still a turning point.
Thinking of this, Tom couldn't help but step up, walking through the dark streets, heading to the opposite side.
