Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 802 The Taste of Breaking Free

"Miss Miriam, you are free to choose an unoccupied seat and sit down."

Simon Augustine, the owner of the house, always speaks casually, which can somewhat give the impression of lack of concentration.But the family members on both sides of this long table would not look down upon him.

After all, how could it be simple to be able to sit firmly in the position of the lord of the house, so that his ambitious elder brother can never make the last step?

"Oh, thank you."

After a little thanks, Miriam stepped on a unique footstep to a certain empty seat, pulled out the exquisitely carved back chair and sat down.

I don't know if she did it on purpose, in short, it happened to be Mallor who sat next to her.

"You are welcome, Miss Miriam... You are a distinguished guest of our Augustine family!" Simon waved his hand, "And, if I have to say it, I am worried that asking you to come in will disturb your rest!"

"Patriarch is serious," Miriam smiled calmly, "I understand that Patriarch asked me to come in. He must want to ask me about Hogwarts before..."

While speaking, Miriam's gaze flickered lightly, which contained a little unspeakable meaning.

"Ah, it is true," Simon nodded. "Herbert asked me just now about how to deal with this matter. I think this question is not easy to answer...Miss Miriam, you today morning I also went with Mallor. I believe that what you see will be more comprehensive than those of us who are sitting."

At this point, Simon paused for a while.

"So, I want to ask what you think of the changes in it?"

The question Herbert asked Simon just now, to put it bluntly, no one can answer it.That McLean is currently in the limelight. Judging from the existing intelligence, the current Augustine family may not be able to win him.

However, this kind of frustration is not something everyone can say, at least the Patriarch Simon can't take the lead in opening this.

Obviously, when Herbert asked this question, he had ulterior motives.

But if it was Miriam, it wouldn't matter if she raised Maca a little bit.

First, she is not a member of the Augustine family. Second... Don’t forget, she is still one of the leaders of this transaction!

However, Simon soon discovered that he was probably asking the wrong person.

"If I want to say, that Maca McLean may be very good, but he is just a person. Well, even if he drags the whole Hogwarts into the water, I don't think there is anything...like What he said at the time, Hogwarts is just a school!"

Halfway through, Miriam blinked her big eyes and gave everyone present a perfect smile.

"How can an inheritor of ancient wizards like your family be blocked by a young wizard who is less than twenty years old?"

What does not come to Taiwan?That's it.

Miriam's words almost lifted the Augustine family to the sky.But the point is, this woman clearly knows that the Augustine family's situation is not good, oh... maybe she just guessed something, right?

Although Simon always felt that he had been cheated, he even suspected that this woman had some agreement with her brother.But in any case, this family meeting still has to go on.

"That's right. For our Augustine family, McLean is just a slightly larger stumbling block..."

As he was talking, he caught a glimpse of his son Mario from the corner of his eye, and then suddenly he had an idea.

"...Not to mention," Simon's tone suddenly relaxed again, "this marriage contract is not just for our family, is it?"

Yes, there is another Werther family standing in front!

When he said the phrase "Isn't it", Simon's gaze fell on his elder brother Herbert.

Seeing this, Herbert nodded without a smile, but quickly staggered his eyes and turned straight to Simon's son Mario.

"In that case, Mallor, you can go to the Witt family in the afternoon!"

It's not a good idea to go to Witt's house now.Herbert's hand, apparently after the pit of Simon failed, simply changed the target to his son.

But this happened to be the idea that came up with Simon's excuse. As Charlotte's fiancé, it was reasonable for Mallor to go to the Witt family to ask about the situation.

Rather, besides Mario, who else could go to this juncture?

"Hmm..." Simon took another look at his son's side, and finally agreed, "Yes, Mallo, you should go there to see the situation in the afternoon!"

Anyway, it is the future son-in-law of the Witt family and the orthodox heir of the Augustine family.As long as the weakness of the Augustine family is not known to the other party, Mario will not be embarrassed on this trip to the Witt family.

Mario is having a headache here!Hearing his own Lao Tzu's approval, he pulled his mouth and showed a humble smile that a younger generation should have.

"Okay, father, uncle, I will go after lunch at noon."

...

For Mallo, the family meeting before noon was difficult.Especially after deciding on his afternoon schedule, the conversation about Maca McLean basically came to an end.

Or in other words, no one wants to mention that one.

All those present were members of the management of the Augustine family, although apart from a few people, no one knew the whole family well.But when it comes to the poor running of the family today, I'm afraid it can take a long time to pick any one.

Under this premise, if anyone wants to discuss how to deal with maca, which pot is not opened and which pot should be picked.This kind of unpleasant thing is something everyone is willing to do.

So, after that, it completely entered the nonsense time, and each member talked about each other, and there was no truth in the usual family meetings.

To be honest, if the daily atmosphere in the family can be more positive and upward, Mario will not become the bird like it is now.

I thought that I might inherit such a broken family in the future...

"Ugh"

Mario was sitting in his room, eating lunch by himself, but stopped for a while after taking a bite.

"Tuk Tuk."

Suddenly, two light knocks interrupted Mallor's sigh.He was taken aback for a moment, then put down the silver spoon in his hand, got up and walked towards the door.

There are certainly not many people who will come to his room at this time, and the most likely one is probably his more or less cheating father.

Mario opened the door with his hand, and was about to open his mouth to say something. Unexpectedly, it was not his father standing outside.

"Miss Miriam?"

Taking advantage of lunch time, this woman has changed her dress again.The close-fitting tailoring and the intricate and delicate lace outline her figure just right. Compared to the enchanting before, she is obviously more solemn and luxurious at this moment.

"Master Augustine, won't you invite me in and sit down?"

When the other party reminded him, Malleo nodded suddenly, and then invited sideways:

"Please forgive my negligence, after all, when people see beautiful things, they always become a little forgetful."

Girls often like to be praised by the opposite sex, and of course Miriam does the same.But she was not an ordinary woman, and she only slightly hooked the corners of her mouth to praise Mario's habit.

Miriam, who was walking into the room and looking at the surrounding furnishings, turned around and looked at the questioning Mario and said:

"Sorry, it seems to have interrupted your meal..."

"Oh, no, it doesn't matter." Mallor smiled and said, "Actually, I don't have any appetite at all, so please don't care about Miss Miriam."

"Really?" Milian said with a pretentious regret, "Seeing that you haven't moved much with these meals, I think I can just invite you to have lunch outside!"

"Lunch together?"

There was a wave of doubt in Ma Lie's heart, and he didn't know what the woman was thinking.

"Yes," Miriam nodded, "It's not just lunch, we can also pick a place to have afternoon tea and enjoy the quiet time after an afternoon..."

"Uh"

Seeing that the other party wanted to continue talking, Mallor hurriedly interrupted:

"Miss Miriam, although I am looking forward to eating and drinking tea with a beautiful woman like you, it's just...I have to go to the Witt family in the afternoon, I'm afraid I can't..."

But when Milian heard the words, she chuckled immediately.

"Master Augustine, I can see that you actually don't want to go to the Werther family. But also, at this time, who wants to go there and find it unhappy?"

Mario was immediately stunned that he was so obvious?

But before he could say anything, Miriam continued to speak on her own.

"...Actually, my companion is currently in the Witte family as a guest. When he comes back from there in the evening, I can ask him to tell you some of the Witte family's reactions. And you, just have to chat with me while drinking tea. Just wait quietly."

"This……"

Mario didn't know what to say.

"Do not worry!"

Miriam stared into his eyes suddenly, and said in a seductive tone:

"It's impossible for your father and uncle to go to the Witt family and ask if you have been there, and... don't you want to feel the feeling of breaking free?"

If it weren't for Mario to feel awake, he would probably think that this woman was using the Imperius Curse!No, is there Veeva's blood flowing in her body?Or is she just Veeva?

"It will be the honor of my life to have lunch with you."

Mario could no longer imagine his refusal.
