Chapter 46 - Living with Tracey (1/2)

Upon finding the rings on them, Tracey and Neal looked at each other in a shock. She almost screamed, ”mom, are you serious? When did it happen? No, How did it happened?”. Dulcie grabbed Edward's hand and replied with a huge smile on her face, ”it just happened”.

Draco burst into laughing all of a sudden. As Narcissa firmly scolded him to shut up, Daphne explained, ”you misunderstood, Mrs. Malfoy. While we're returning, a discussion went on between us about Ms. Dulcie's surprise.

Draco was the one who guessed that Ms. Dulcie and Mr. Edward are going to get married”. Draco smirked, ”I think I have talent in divination”.

Astoria replied, ”as if. You only have a talent in squandering money”. Draco looked at her as if daggers are coming out of his eyes and thought, ”you little... just you wait. I'll teach you some manners, soon”.

Meanwhile, Neal said, ”congratulations, Mrs. Dulcie, Uncle Edward. I'm happy for you. But anyway, does that mean I'll be moving with you guys?”. Dulcie replied, ”of course, you'll be moving with us. We're a family now. No need to feel troubled, at all”.

After saying goodbye to others, they sat in Edward's car. While Neal sat on front with Edward, Tracey who sat with Dulcie in the backseat whispered, ”mom, just when did you two even start dating, anyway?”.

As she whispered a bit loud, Neal and Edward too heard it, he replied, ”it's been nearly two years, Tracey”. Neal and Tracey were surprised and almost screamed, ”Two years?”. Tracey then looked at her mom, ”so, that means when we went to Neal's birthday party last year...”

Dulcie smiled, ”we're already dating each other”. Neal then asked, ”wait a second. Two years? That means you knew each other long ago?”. Edward replied, ”yeah. We met each other in America, a couple of years ago. She was the one who helped me out when I was returning with your wand”.

Dulcie commented in a surprise, ”I really thought you were a grave robber that day. Neal, do you know how many people your uncle offended to get that wand? He kept on digging graves over various places in America and almost got caught”.

Edward replied, ”please, it's nothing big. Dumbledore already took care of it”.

Soon, they reached a house. It's neither small nor a big one. It's a two-story house, more than enough for four people. Tracey was amazed, ”are we living here from now on?”. Dulcie nodded, ”yeah, we bought it a couple of months ago after we got married. Tracey, your room is upstairs on the left and Neal, yours is on the right”.

While both of them were going upstairs, Edward said, ”I knew Neal won't say anything and will digest it easily but I never knew Tracey is also mȧturė enough to understand”. Dulcie replied, ”please. Don't think too much of her. She takes too much amount of time to digest when she gets shocked.

It's been an hour already. By this time, she will realize that she forgot to ask for an explanation. then she will shout...”

Just then, a shriek came from Tracey's room, ”Mom, mom, mom...”
