All day Monday and for much of Tuesday, she analyzed the short visit. What Nott was on about was still a complete mystery. He was at least honest in his statement that he was there to see for himself that she was actually back. Far from being the only person who used any excuse they could to pass by her Ministry office or walk past her home, she knew there were a number of people very interested in her return. With her defection kept almost completely under wraps from the rest of the society at large, it was no wonder that her presence was surprising. Perhaps many assumed that she was murdered by her husband in a fit of rage and Antonin was desperate to keep his dirty deeds a secret. Simple minds enjoyed spinning the most elaborate and ridiculous stories in their heads.
