"See you some other time!"

After saying goodbye to Isobel, Albert walked alone towards the car in the distance. He opened the door and got in. His eyes immediately fell on the cage on the seat. Tom was scratching the cat cage with his claws, trying to get out.

After Albert closed the car door, he reached out to open the cat cage. He picked up Tom and weighed him. He felt that he was much heavier than before. This guy was now tending to develop into a spherical shape.

Looking at the fat cat sitting on his knees and rubbing against him, Albert could only grab its body with both hands to prevent Tom from licking his cheek.

By the way, when did Tom develop this bad habit

"Mom and Nia are not here?" Albert looked up at Herb who was in the driver's seat.

"Daisy said she would prepare a big meal for you. Nia has a date with a friend today. Before I come to pick you up, I'll go pick up Tom first." Herb turned his head and looked at the figure disappearing outside the window. "The girl who was talking to you just now is your girlfriend, right? Invite her to dinner at home some other day."

"Isobel will go on vacation to Italy with us. I remember telling you about this." Albert reached out and scratched Tom's chin.

"Well, I think I said that I've been too busy these days." Herb started the car and drove towards the nearest road.

"Will you get married after graduation?"

Herb didn't ask Albert what he wanted to do in the future. He knew very well that with Albert's ability, he would not be short of money.

If you win a jackpot, you will get a lot of pounds.

Charlie's restaurant is also a good example.

"Probably... right!" Albert didn't intend to talk more about this matter. He turned his head to look at the street receding outside the window. The car had already left King's Cross Station.

However, the two were unlucky as they encountered a traffic jam halfway.

Traffic jams often occur in London. When they returned to the town, it was completely dark. Snowflakes were floating around, and Tom huddled up next to Albert in the car.

"I remember you were almost an adult," Herb said as they drove.

Albert stifled a yawn and reminded, "In the wizarding world, you are considered an adult at the age of seventeen."

"In the future, don't stay in the wizarding world all the time. Go out and explore the ordinary world more often. Otherwise, I'm worried that your brain will be assimilated by the wizarding world. I feel bad about the world over there." After Herb got home, he backed the car into the garage. When Albert got out of the back seat holding Tom, he continued, "The wizarding world is really too backward. Now our technology is developing rapidly. I doubt whether wizards will be completely eliminated by the times."

"I know the world's changes better than you do."

Albert was not talking nonsense. He really knew what kind of changes would happen to the world in the next ten years or so.

"Just get the idea in your mind." Herb dragged his suitcase, opened the door and walked in.

“We’re back!”

When Albert entered the house, he saw Daisy busy in the kitchen. Nia had also returned and was helping Daisy bring out the food from the kitchen.

"Dinner is ready."

Daisy kissed Herb passionately on the cheek and took the two of them to the dining room for dinner.

Nia didn't say hello to Albert, which made Albert feel a little strange. Maybe the girl was studying outside, growing up alone, and didn't stick to him as much as before.

The dinner was rich, with all the food that Albert and Nia liked, and their stomachs were quickly filled.

After dinner, the Anderson family sat on the sofa watching TV, chatting about their upcoming vacation plans in Italy, and asked Albert how long he would need to stay in France.

Nia didn't say a word to Albert the whole evening. Albert knew that Nia was angry and was using this as a protest against his invitation to Isobel to join him on vacation in Italy.

Still haven’t grown up!

"How are you doing at school?" Albert asked as Nia was about to take Tom back to his room.

"It's still the same."

Nia just replied calmly and carried Tom back to the room.

Albert said to Daisy, who handed him the hot milk, "She seems mad at me."

"Maybe he has reached the age of rebellion!" Daisy said as she watched Nia disappear. Sure enough, this son was the one that made them worry the least. However, sometimes being too worry-free was not a good thing, as he did not feel the feeling of being a parent at all.

"snort!"

Hearing those words, Nia snorted in dissatisfaction and closed the door.

On the other side, Katrina also faced similar problems.

Mrs. McDougal, who had a rare day off, was listening to her daughter talking about dance practice. The two were chatting enthusiastically, but Katrina looked bored and even wanted to yawn.

"Katrina, do you have someone you like?" Mrs. McDougal looked at her little daughter. "What kind of career do you want to pursue in the future?"

"No!" Katrina said dryly, "As for what career to pursue, I haven't decided yet."

"Then think about it carefully. There will be career counseling in the fifth grade," Mrs. McDougal reminded.

"What does Isobel want to do in the future?" Katrina quickly changed the subject.

"Continue my father's research." Isobel thought for a moment and replied, "Then publish a few more books, or study potions."

"That's a dangerous thing. I believe your boyfriend wouldn't want you to take the risk." Mrs. McDougal frowned deeply. She didn't want her daughter to follow in her husband's footsteps. McDougal's death left a big shadow on her.

"You can consider developing in other areas. You are very good in many fields." Mrs. McDougal said, "I think writing a book is actually a good idea."

"Albert will support me and help me. He is better than me in this area." Isobel said with a smile, "Of course, after fulfilling my father's last wish, I will consider developing a career in the field of potions."

Isobel is very interested in youth potions. What woman doesn't want to stay young forever

Seeing that her mother was hesitant to speak, Isobel turned the topic to Katrina, "Katrina, if you see a boy you like, then..."

"I haven't planned on finding a boyfriend yet," Katrina interrupted impatiently.

"I think Cedric Diggory is a good guy. He's one of the better ones your age, and he's also very handsome." Isobel reminded, "Many girls in school like him."

The best has been picked by you.

Katrina complained in her mind and said casually: "I don't want to find a boyfriend yet, and I don't have any feelings for Diggory."

"Cedric Diggory?" asked Mrs. MacDougal. "Amos's son?"

"Do you know him?"

"Yes, Amos is two years older than us. We even attended their wedding." Mrs. McDougal recalled, "I remember I went to see him when Cedric was born."
