Arms dealer from Hogwarts
Chapter 68 Charlotte
Chapter 68 Charlotte
I take you as a partner, but you want to be my son?
Red looked at Jemini in astonishment, that was the thought in his head now.
"Of course, don't get me wrong, it's just a formality." Jemini snapped his fingers, watching Red narrow his eyes slightly: "I suggest you don't think about some messy things."
"Uh... no, of course not." Red laughed dryly, "Did something happen in your family?"
"I don't have a home." Jamie spread his hands, "You don't need to fulfill your parenting obligations, it's just a formality. At present, you are the most suitable candidate I can think of."
It is also the best to control.
Of course, Jemini didn't say that.
Red fell silent.
"I didn't say you can't refuse. If you feel embarrassed, I have other options. Don't get me wrong. I don't mean to force you." Jemini waved his hand and said gently.
"It's okay, I agree." Reid thought for a while and nodded.
"Don't you need to think about it again? I'm not in a hurry." Jemini tilted his head.
"This is not a troublesome thing for me." Reid shook his head: "Besides, if I adopt you, the transaction between us will be more convenient, right?"
"Right." Jamie nodded.
"Then there is nothing to say." Reid chuckled and said, "I will pick you up on time tomorrow. What's the address?"
"Holy Cross Welfare Home."
The next day, Holy Cross Welfare Home.
"no!"
In the dean's office, the priest and dean rolled his eyes, rejecting Red's adoption application without even thinking about it.
"Why?" Reid stared, his face full of disbelief: "My assets are..."
"It has nothing to do with your assets at all." The head priest held the wine bottle in one hand and propped his chin in the other, sitting carelessly behind the desk: "You just simply don't qualify for adoption."
"I don't have it?" Reid laughed angrily. "I own a casino, a racetrack, and a monthly turnover of 800 million pounds. I have a healthy and warm family. Why don't I qualify for adoption?"
"You should tell the social worker about this." The head priest waved his hand indifferently: "I dare say that you don't need to investigate, open a casino, racetrack? Do you have gang experience?"
"I--"
"Do you have a case?"
"I--"
"Look, these two points will completely eliminate the possibility of you adopting a child." The head priest glanced at Reid, and snorted: "Who knows what you want to adopt a child..."
"What can I do?" Reid said angrily, "If I want to sell children, I have to go to you?"
"Look! The fox's tail is leaking!" The head priest slapped the table and roared, "I'm telling you! Social worker investigation! Court permission! Relative consultation! No matter which one is missing, I will not agree! Don't even think about it!"
"Holy shit!"
Reid kicked over the stool angrily, and left angrily.
On the other side, Jemini was writing summer homework in the room when there was a knock on the door.
Opening the door, Sister Linda was standing outside the room looking at him with a smile.
"Good news, Jemini, someone wants to adopt you." Sister Linda said, reaching out and rubbing Jemini's little face: "To be honest, I'm still a little bit reluctant."
Jemini smiled gently: "I will come back to see you often, sister Linda."
"So you agree? Don't you need to see what kind of person the other party is?" Linda was shocked for a moment.
With Jemini's looks and academic performance, there were many families who wanted to adopt Jemini before, but they were all rejected by Jemini. I thought he would refuse this time, but I didn't expect it to be so easy. I agree.
"No need." Jemini shook his head: "It's someone I know."
At this time, he ran over to adopt him, who else could he be besides Reid?
Linda glanced into the room, and found that Jemini's luggage had been packed, and the snow-white owl was staying in the cage obediently at this time.
"I know someone... It seems that you are really going to leave this time." Linda sighed a little disappointed: "I am quite reluctant, but congratulations, Jamie."
"I will come back to see you often, Sister Linda." Jemini smiled gently.
"Okay, let's not talk about those sad things, since you have already decided, come with me, people are already waiting." Sister Linda said, helping Jemini to pull up the suitcase, and took him All the way to the gate.
"Don't you need to say hello to the dean?" Jemini asked with some surprise: "The procedure or something—"
"No need at all." Sister Linda smiled and said: "He is sad, just remember to visit him when you have time, I saw you tossing gold coins in the room before, don't tell me you can't take them out Exit expenses."
"No way." Jemini smiled gently.
"Go, don't make people wait." Sister Linda rubbed Jemini's hair, and raised her chin towards the gate.
Jemini looked at the entrance of the orphanage. There was a car parked there. A woman was sitting in the back seat of the car. On her head was a white straw hat with a wide brim. Above the brim were several blue flowers. There are pink roses, and the wide brim of the hat blocks her eyes, making it impossible to see her face clearly.
Is it Red's wife?The guy didn't come in person?
Dragging the suitcase all the way to the front of the car, the trunk of the car opened with a click. Jemini glanced at the woman in the back seat and put the suitcase in the trunk of the car.
It seems Red's wife doesn't like me very much?
But Jemini didn't care about this kind of thing, and he didn't intend to deal with Red's family.
And in the final analysis, it was because I let others adopt me because I talked to myself. I am afraid that no one would be happy if I changed it. If you don't believe it, just look at Harry Potter.
Jemini closed the trunk, and the door of the back seat of the car opened. In the back seat, the woman beckoned to Jemini, signaling him to sit beside her.
Jemini hesitated for a moment, then sat beside her, and closed the car door casually: "It's my first meeting, it's an honor to meet you, Ms. Black."
"It's an honor to meet you too, Mr. Fox." The woman took off her white straw hat, revealing a delicate face.
The light tea-blond long hair is tied into a low ponytail, hanging from the shoulders to the chest, the ice blue eyes are clear and beautiful, the bridge of the nose is straight but delicate, there is a little luster on the lips with lipstick, and the fair face is beautiful It's like a work of art.
Judging from her face, this woman should not be more than 25 years old.
"But you seem to have made a mistake. I'm not Black." The woman covered her mouth and smiled lightly. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Charlotte Gray, and I'm the eldest daughter of the Gray family."
"Grey... family?" Jemini blinked and said blankly, "Shirley's family? If I remember correctly, I was adopted by Thored..."
"Are you talking about that red-haired Muggle?" Charlotte looked at Jemini with a smile, "I happened to see him leave cursingly when I came, it seems that he didn't meet the adoption regulations."
"No, no." Jemini quickly waved his hand: "If Reid doesn't meet the adoption regulations, then you should too..."
Charlotte laughed when she heard the words, she smiled beautifully, her eyes seemed to bend into a crescent: "Just a simple confusion spell."
Jamie froze on his seat: "Is this against the law?"
Charlotte looked at Jemini with a gentle smile and remained silent.
"Should it be against the law?" Jemini blinked and asked again.
Charlotte's smile was still beautiful and warm. After two seconds of silence, she finally spoke slowly.
"Karoo, drive!"
"Yes, my dear Miss Charlotte!"
In the driver's seat, a house elf wearing a black pillowcase stepped on the gas pedal frantically.
