Moody smirked. "The life of a Silver Shadow is about hundred years, Mr. Granger. I think that you will lie much more comfortable in the Silver Shadow then in bed. It's also less expensive," he grumbled.

"Ten thousand Galleons," Hiphook said.

"Five thousand Galleons and an account at Gringotts," Matt counter offered.

Hiphook looked thoughtfully at Matt Granger, then at his wife.

"Deal!" he exclaimed. "Now you need to do damage control," he said with a smirk. "This advice is for free, Mr. Granger. Good luck and you might need it very much."

Matt looked at his two very angry looking women and he swallowed.

"Bind your bloody horse in front of your stupid Rolls Royce, and let it pull you to the office, Matt. You will not be welcome in my home anymore," said his wife angrily.

Matt gulped and looked at Harry. "Lord-Baron, do you have a spare room for your poor father in law for a few days?"

Harry smiled and nodded.

"Paul Gryffindor was not as strong as you, Lord-Baron, he had only one wife."

Harry smiled with a painful expression in his face.

Pansy and Ginny looked at each other and smirked.

"But the rewards, Naif, the rewards will let him forget all the pains in the world," Ginny said mischievously.

"Too many rewards will only hurt my head," Harry grumbled, and the girls laughed.

"Lord-Baron!" Hiphook's voice came from one of the corridors.
