There wasn't time to worry about the hurt feelings of either her husband or her son. If she wanted to keep her cover from being blown, she had to continue to act just like she always did when she was working.

It would only be further proof that she wasn't actually back at the Ministry to do her job. She couldn't afford anyone to look too closely at her activities. Not at least until she freed Aberforth.
