Dumbledore had never faced such a problem.

"You mean you want to divorce Tom?" He rubbed his crystal glasses in embarrassment and said, "Rosie, my child, maybe it's just a misunderstanding, maybe you can think about it again." The old wizard said incoherently, he really didn't know what to do.

Ross sat straight on the couch in front of him, and she looked exceptionally calm and sensible. She had even only come to inform Dumbledore of her decision, but that didn't hide the cold anger radiating from her.

"Dumbledore, I've decided. I'll be going to the Ministry of Magic this afternoon to inquire about the formalities. She put down her teacup and took her leave.

"But," Dumbledore had to stop her, "there is no such thing as a Muggle divorce in the wizarding world...... I mean, marriage is sacred, and when two people who love each other have sworn to love each other forever, only death can separate them. ”

Baosi's head was somewhat calmed down by the anger burned, and she understood very well.

"And what do they do?" She asked, not really wondering what the wizard could do at this time, but for her, from the moment she gave up her marriage to Tom, the question was only how to make it happen. The focus is on the problem-solving approach, not on whether others allow it.

"Usually, they don't live together anymore, like the mythical ......" Dumbledore began to ramble, and the mythical quarrel between the gods and wives usually leads to a big war, or the human war in which they support different camps, mostly one in the south and one in the sea and the north are far apart, and they don't live together in this life.

"Separated?" "What if I'm going to remarry?" ”

Dumbledore was sluggish for the first time in his long life.

"Remarry?" He didn't know how to express his surprise, "Boss, how can you ......?" You're already ......," he said, gesturing, clearly not knowing what to say.

But Pauss understood: "Not yet." She said, and the old principal breathed a sigh of relief. But she continued, "But I will definitely remarry." ”

- Why not?

"So, I'm going to divorce Tom." She stood up and said bitterly, and before she said goodbye, she suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, there should be a Tom's room in the castle, right?" Since he works here. ”

"Yes, yes, of course." Dumbledore stood up to see her off, not explaining, "But aren't you going to move?" ”

Pauss said calmly, "Of course he can't go with me. We're okay with that. ”

It wasn't until she was gone that Dumbledore understood what she meant, and the whole of Hogwarts knew about it, because Paules had sent Tom back to the castle.

This couple is a very famous couple in Hogwarts history - after all, they are the only ones who have been on the Daily Prophet, and once again caused an uproar.

She consulted with the Ministry of Magic, to her disappointment that the wizard did not have a divorce clause.

The member of the department who received her was the first two receptions for Sem, who had just been transferred to the department two months earlier. The poor member was pulling out his handkerchief to wipe his cold sweat.

"Madam, there's nothing I can do about this." He had almost all of them hidden under the table.

"Well, as you know, I'm a Muggle. So if I'm single again on the Muggle side, will this marriage still work for me? Pauss suggested another possibility. After she left Dumbledore, she had been trying to find a solution, and finally, she found it.

In the Muggle world, she had already held a funeral for her husband, Tom Marvolo Riddle. Although Tom came back, it was only the Ministry of Magic, that is, the wizarding world that restored his identity, and he was still a dead man in the Muggle world.

In other words, Paucus is now single.

This member of the Ministry of Magic had obviously never encountered such a situation, and he couldn't say a word for a long time with his mouth wide open.

"Then I see." Pauss thinks she has the answer, and that is that wizarding laws really can't control her.

Oh, great, I'm glad she's not a wizard!

She stood up to leave, but the member chased after her: "Wait, ma'am! Please let me ask my supervisor! Perhaps, maybe we have another way? ”

O Merlin! He could already see what would happen in the Daily Prophet! And no matter what the report says, they will later accuse the Ministry of Magic of not foreseeing this! They make laws with loopholes and flaws! It's all their mistakes!

The news of Baosi's plan to divorce still spread. This loving Muggle wife and her confused wizard husband have long been unheard of, and as an after-dinner conversation, everyone still wants to know what happened between them. Even the wizard radio began to make fun of it.

Tom had obediently moved out of their house from that day on, and he returned to the castle looking as usual. Everyone wanted to find out what was going on, but only Sgollahhorn guessed it had something to do with the bottle of contraceptive perfume he had given to Rose.

As a caring former student and a Slytherin enthusiast, Sgollahhorn warmly invites Tom to have dinner with him.

He had hoped to get some clues from Tom, but Tom's impeccable response made him unable to see anything.

Dumbledore also expected him to find some secret that would reconcile the young couple, so he invited him to his office the day after dinner to taste sweets.

"I don't know, Albus." "I can't guess what's the secret of the contraceptive perfume, unless Tom wants to have another child, and Pauc doesn't want to, so he secretly buys the perfume without him." ”

"Contraceptive perfume?" Dumbledore was an old-school wizard who liked children, so he wasn't very proficient in this kind of thing, and although he could understand the meaning, he still seemed a little ignorant.

"Oh, that's right." Sgollahhorn explained briefly. Wizarding nobles are no different from Muggle nobles, and even senior Hogwarts students have these little things in private. This perfume is very necessary when they just want to enjoy love and do not want to face a child who stands out.

A secret tryst is just an affair, and an illegitimate child is a scandal.

After sending Sgollahhorn away, Dumbledore found out the reason for Tom and Prith's quarrel. But that didn't help much, for even he didn't know how to explain the perfume to Tom.

At this age, Paose would not have wanted to have another child on the whim, and as a Muggle, he knew her very well, and she would not be interested in such a wizarding product.

Well, the problem is not present, but they are past. In fact, he was surprised when Tom invited him to Red's birthday party, because he had the impression that Tom would not have children.

"Tom, you're in big trouble now." The old wizard sighed.

Tom was now in the same room in the castle where the family of three had lived, and the elves had cleaned the room and put his clothes back in their place. Even his dinner, the elves had already brought it.

They were very considerate and thought he wouldn't be out for dinner at this time.

He simply drank a glass of pumpkin juice and ate half a pie before he was full. Since a long time ago, he has had little interest in luxury.

It's strange that he used to analyze some of his own behaviors curiously. As far as he knows, most people like him who climb up from the bottom of society will become more enjoyable than ordinary people after gaining power. There's a word that's very appropriate, 'nouveau riche'.

Many businessmen who get rich overnight like to spend a lot of money, because the wealth is too much, but it is not easy to keep.

There are also those who add arrogance and squander recklessly, and then invite destruction.

Therefore, many big nobles and families look down on these people, and the real nobles are very low-key.

Tom thinks that's exactly what he does. He was only mistreated for a while, and one day, he will get back what was once his.

He was almost stricter with himself, stricter than everybody, because he believed that it was all worthwhile, and that he had an important mission than to indulge in wine and gold.

— but now the mission is becoming more and more like a joke.

There were also many people who laughed at him before. It wasn't just Dumbledore, he didn't have to show his professor what he was planning at that time, unless he had something wrong with his head. The joke was that he was with the Slytherins around him, who just wanted to benefit from his so-called mission, and had no interest in whether it could really be achieved. Even they think he does.

At that time, he was convinced that there were many stupid people in this world, and it was not a pleasure to live among a group of stupid people. He had to say the same thing to them, just to make them believe him. Although he is comfortable manipulating people's hearts, laughing at those people does not make it much easier for him.

Sometimes he even suspects that he is the only one in this world who is so persistent.

This martyr-like feeling made him feel sacred, and it made him resolute.

- This was four years ago.

Now, it is he who thinks that the so-called, the mission for which he has fought all his life, is like a joke. It's like his whole body has gone from a high fever state, and then his mind has never been clearer.

It's not a pleasure. Even worse than before he had to deal with those stupid people. He suddenly didn't know what he was supposed to do, and there was a blank in front of him.

In the past, when he was in Gdrrick Valley, he saw that Paoth would go to church once a week and pray to God in the morning and evening. He thought it was very stupid, because no one had ever seen God, so how could he believe the Bible?

Pauss replied, 'I have not seen God, not even a miracle. But one has to be afraid to know where to stop. ’

At the time he didn't understand what it meant, but now he does. Like those who believed that he was betrayed by a Death Eater, like he had been shot three times by her, and now he found himself fooled by his past self and wasted most of his life.

He stubbornly pursued a fruitless goal, and when he found that there was nothing in front of him, he lost his bearings.

Then he found that there was no one to guide him, he couldn't in the past, and he didn't know where he could go next.

At this time, he both envied and hated Rose.

- She always knew what she had to do. Why?

He knocked on Professor Trelawney's door with a small present, and after a few words, two wine glasses and wine that never ran out were placed on the table in front of them.

He watched as Professor Trelawney drained his glass again and again, expecting to hear her prophecy again.

- Last time the prophecy should have been only half, and he wanted to know what the other half was. He had a hunch, and he prophesied about the future.

By the time Dumbledore found Tom, Professor Trelawney was drunk and unconscious.

"Tom, it's so you're here, I've been looking for you." He could guess why he was getting drunk, the last prediction was after everyone had drunk, so he probably thought that getting drunk Trelawney would prophesy again, but judging by his face, he might have failed.

"Mr. Headmaster." Tom stood up, gave a brief salute, and said, "Is there anything you want me to do?" ”

Dumbledore thought for a moment and said, "Rose St. Mungo, she was sent this afternoon. ”

"I'll go over at once." Tom turned to leave, and Dumbledore hesitated behind him, but it was better to wait for him to get to St. Mungo, and let the healer tell him.

In the St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic, in a room with four other mothers-to-be, standing in front of her bed, Rhett and two therapists were pouring her chicken soup, and when Tom came in, Rhett greeted him first, "Daddy, Mommy here." ”

Pauche bowed her head and ate Habitt to prepare a nutritious dinner for her, and from the moment she learned the news, the elf was extremely excited.

Although Tom was mentally prepared for the scene in front of him, when the therapist congratulated him, he was still half a beat slower.

"Congratulations, Mr. Riddle, Mrs. Riddle is pregnant. It's just twelve weeks. You'll have a baby next year. "The gentle therapist looked at the couple who looked very young.

“…… Thank you. Tom was very polite to see off the therapist and then returned to Rose's bed.

The first thing she said to him was, "This is my child!" He has nothing to do with you! She guarded her stomach and glared at him as if he were going to take away her child.

Next to the two of them, Red whistled happily.
