Earl Russ's words left Harry Potter somewhat stunned.
Was the Potter family he belonged to that famous?
And this powerful Earl Russ seemed to know his father very well.
That suddenly stirred an urge in Harry Potter to learn more about his family and his father.
"Earl Russ, may I ask you a few questions?" Harry Potter took a deep breath and asked, looking at Earl Russ.
Earl Russ smiled. "Come with me. I'm rather interested in a little fellow like you. Let me tell you about your Potter family."
Harry Potter did not follow him immediately. Instead, he looked at Katelyle.
Katelyle stroked Harry Potter's head and smiled. "Go ahead. He actually knew your father fairly well."
Then Katelyle added with a mischievous grin, "To be more precise, when your father was little, Earl Russ played quite a few pranks on him, and your grandfather ended up having to take him home."
Harry Potter froze at those words.
But soon, Harry Potter was filled with curiosity and anticipation about what Earl Russ could tell him about his father and family.
As Harry Potter left with Earl Russ, Katelyle walked off to one side, wineglass in hand.
He did so because someone had already been waiting there for a while.
"Lily Telles!"
"It's been years. I hear you've built quite an impressive company in this world."
Katelyle smiled at the woman before him, a tall, sexy blonde with a devilishly alluring figure, an angelic face, and a red dress.
Watching Katelyle approach, Lily Telles stepped forward, reached out, and embraced him. She greeted him cheek to cheek, then planted a kiss on his lips.
Her blue eyes gazed at Katelyle with deep affection.
Only a moment later, a playful glint crept into that affectionate gaze.
"Still that familiar taste, Kate."
