Huh? There's a magic school here.

Catherine has been having a wonderful time lately. Her precocious younger sister has been sent to Hogwarts. And she, having just graduated, has landed a job with a six-figure annual salary thanks to her sister. Her original plan was simply to find a job that wouldn't involve harassment and could support herself and her sister. Now, she's the CEO of a new company, managing a large supermarket.

Although this isn't my preferred job, the boss behind the scenes said he could put me in charge when the company sets up a financial investment firm in the future. I've spent a month streamlining this large supermarket; should I consider starting a new company now?

Catherine was lying back in her chair with her feet on the desk in her office, pondering how to subtly or in a tactful way remind her boss about this matter.

She decided to find an excuse to report to the boss first, then visit her sister and see what Hogwarts was like. Without further ado, she took out paper and pen and began writing a letter.

"Dear Boss: After more than a month of hard work, things are back on track at the company. If we don't count the supplies for Hogwarts, the company is still making a profit, albeit not a huge one, clearly disproportionate to the investment. However, we've analyzed the reasons, and it's largely due to the small population of Historic County. Plus, the retail industry is becoming increasingly competitive, so I think the company should consider finding new sources of profit. I wonder if you have time this weekend? I'll be going to the Isle of Skye with our supply truck to see you. By the way, how's Beretta doing lately? Is she being quite mischievous?"

After finishing the letter, she called over the postman who was sleeping on the shelf. The postman, disturbed from his rest, barked twice in protest. However, seeing the letter in Catherine's hand, he obediently flew to the table and took it. She was so happy to be back at Hogwarts and see her friends again!

After receiving the letter, Andres considered it briefly before agreeing, as he had become quite hands-off in many matters since Catherine came into his life. Although Catherine wouldn't dare betray him, he still needed to check on her from time to time to prevent her from having any other ideas.

Moreover, the school's expenses were quite high this month, and he needed to find a way to earn more money to support the school. So he replied and agreed to Catherine's request to meet. As for the location, Hogwarts would be fine, because it was clear that Catherine missed her sister; otherwise, those few words about Beretta wouldn't have suddenly appeared at the end.

After Catherine saw that her request had been granted, she began preparations. Although she wanted to visit her sister and Hogwarts, she still had important business to attend to. Over the next few days, Catherine spent time discussing and learning about information in the financial investment industry with her former classmates. After all, most of her classmates were in the financial circle and had a lot of inside information.

In addition, the new CFO also delivered this month's financial statements, but she didn't look too happy. She had discovered that the company was sending out large quantities of supplies every week without any cash inflow, resulting in a persistent loss on the books.

However, every time the matter was brought up, Catherine brushed it off with the excuse that it was the boss's arrangement, indicating that she hadn't gained his trust. The new CFO could only pray that the company wouldn't go bankrupt; after all, more money meant less work!

By the evening of September 30th, Catherine had already prepared all the necessary documents. She was just waiting to meet Andres the next day, and lying in bed, she was having trouble sleeping.

Although I've already graduated from university, I used to dream of receiving a letter from Hogwarts one day and becoming a wizard, soaring freely through the skies on a flying broomstick. But as I grew older, I gradually realized that those were just fantasies. I never imagined that after all these years, I would actually have the chance to step into Hogwarts. Even if I can't be a student, just seeing it with my own eyes would fulfill a wish, wouldn't it?

Although her sister wrote to her saying how wonderful Hogwarts was, she had never seen it with her own eyes! So Catherine tossed and turned in bed for most of the night before finally falling asleep.

On the morning of October 1st, Catherine woke up very early. The delivery truck bound for Hogwarts was already waiting for her at her doorstep. Usually, these supermarket delivery trucks start working at three or four in the morning to deliver goods before the supermarket opens.

The goods that need to be shipped from the supermarket are usually prepared well in advance, so Catherine only had time to wash up before she hurried off. As for her makeup, she could only touch it up in the car.

And so Stan witnessed firsthand the magical art of makeup from the Muggle world! Watching this naturally beautiful woman transform herself into a stunning nine-tenths of her former self through makeup, Stan exclaimed in disbelief. Three hours later, they arrived safely at Hogwarts.

On the way, Stan and Catherine complained that the container truck was too slow and invited her to try out the Knight Bus later. Remembering the car that picked Beretta up at the start of the school year, Catherine's eyes lit up and she quickly nodded in agreement.

When Catherine got out of the car, she saw Dobby and several other house-elves waiting there for a long time. Besides Dobby, the other house-elves were there to help move and pack supplies. Dobby, on Andres's orders, was waiting for Catherine.

Catherine gazed at the castle before her, marveling repeatedly. It was far more breathtaking than anything seen in the movies, which only glimpsed it briefly. Only by standing truly before Hogwarts Castle could one truly appreciate its grandeur. Dobby led Catherine inside the castle, where even more magic took hold.

First, the murals she passed by greeted her warmly, mostly with phrases like "Hello, beautiful lady." Even though it was just a simple greeting, she found it fascinating. And when she arrived at the auditorium, the armored guards stood at attention and bowed their heads in respect for their guest.

Catherine had expected Dobby to take her directly to Andres, but instead, Dobby led her to the auditorium for breakfast. Catherine wanted to decline, but Dobby told her it was Andres's instruction. The gist was that Dobby wanted Catherine to see the results of her work and also to let the students' parents see what their children's living conditions were like at school.

Hearing this, Catherine didn't refuse anymore. However, she had arrived a bit late, and breakfast was already over. Dobby, having received orders, had specially reserved breakfast for her. With a snap of Dobby's fingers, more than ten kinds of food appeared on the table. Catherine was once again amazed by the magic; hmm, the food here was quite good, very delicious. Catherine originally wanted to eat more, but considering she was there to see her boss, she couldn't keep him waiting too long, so she quickly finished eating and left the hall with Dobby.
