Hogwarts: The Founder Reborn

Chapter 40 Engagement Warning!



In fact, since Snape warned Helga not to get too close to some Gryffindors, Helga realized that she would probably meet her own father.

Mr. Malfoy politely borrowed the office from Snape, and had a good chat with his daughter about her performance in school.

Snape just glanced at Helga, left his office neatly without saying anything.

With some hesitation, Helga slowly moved in front of Mr. Malfoy, and under his gaze, sat on the single sofa opposite him, and then stared at Mr. Malfoy intently.

Lucius Malfoy carefully looked at his eldest daughter. This was his and Narcissa's first child. At that time, they actually had no plans to have a child. Before Helga was born, it was not a big deal for the Malfoy family. It wasn't such a good time, the two strengths of Voldemort and Dumbledore were almost the most intense period of struggle with each other.

Malfoy had no choice, he was almost forced to fight on the front line like everyone else, and he couldn't tell how uneasy it was for Narcissa at that time, she waited almost night and night for her husband's death Returning, and Lucius often came home with blood all over him, Narcissa alone, even rejecting the house-elf and treating her husband by himself.

At that time, they didn't dare to believe anyone, they couldn't believe anyone, they could only rely on each other and persevere.

It was at that time, when they were most fearful and restless, that Helga came to their world.

Lucius looked at his still slim daughter, and his memory seemed to go back to that day, when Narcissa felt uncomfortable and found out that she was pregnant, she hugged him almost in fear, and asked him ,What should she do?Can she keep the child?

Lu Xiuxi hesitated, but Lucius and Narcissa are actually the kind of couples who get married as soon as they graduate.Harry's parents had Harry in their early twenties, but Narcissa and Lucius were five or six years older than Harry's parents. They had been married for four or five years and had no children. It's not that no one talked about it.

In the end, no one had the courage, or in other words, they were unwilling, unwilling, to kill their own children, and Helga just stayed behind in their wordless silence.

But even so, Narcissa still gave birth prematurely because of her anxiety.

When Lucius hugged his immature and weak daughter, he regretted it for the first time. He couldn't understand why he joined Voldemort's camp irrationally at the beginning, and he didn't understand the reason for the cruel and terrible things he did now. ?

If it was to protect his family, to protect Malfoy, and to give Narcissa a more stable life at the beginning, but he could see clearly that he had already discovered Voldemort's secret madness, and most importantly, it was clearly to protect himself. Family and lover, but he watched Narcissa give birth to their first child prematurely because of fear.

This is such a frail child, she even seems to be breathing weakly.

Those so-called ideals of Lucius, the so-called persistence of pure blood, were shattered at that moment.

But he couldn't get out of the quagmire.

He was deep in it.

Lucius withdrew his thoughts and asked Helga almost emotionlessly.

"Do you still like the Black boy?"

Such ambiguous words made Helga unable to answer, did he say he didn't like it?What are you kidding, if you don't like him and get so close to him, will others believe it?Say you like Rowena?But her last name is Weasley?If he really said that, it is estimated that Lucius would turn around and go to the principal's office to withdraw himself from school. Apart from Hogwarts, it is not that there are no other schools.

Therefore, Helga had no choice but to lower her head and grab the school uniform robe above her legs with both hands, planning to say that silence is golden.

She knew that Lucius had always doubted his relationship with Godric, and he was unwilling to get so close to Godric. Probably in his eyes, Godric's family status was not worthy of his daughter. Bar.

"If you really like him, then you like that boy from the Black family, then get engaged, and when your semester is over, get engaged." Lucius said bitterly.

got engaged? !Helga quickly looked up at the old father in front of her in astonishment, and almost shouted, is he crazy?

Lucius looked at his daughter's surprised look, but his tone was a bit bleak: "Although it's inappropriate, but if you like it, as a parent, I still hope you can be happy."

Lucius reached out and touched Helga's long hair, his eyes were full of love for his daughter.

"It's so big."

In his impression, his daughter still seemed to be that weak, fragile child who seemed to be broken at the touch of a touch, but now it seemed that she was already a child with her own thoughts, an older child.

"That child from the Black family is different from you." Lucius hesitated. "He can lean on anyone." But Malfoy was different.

"If you like him, because you like him to get close to those people, it's probably fine."

Helga blurted out: "What about you? Dad, and Mom, what about you?"

Lucius shook his head: "I can't, I can't turn back."

Helga watched the struggle in Lucius' eyes, the despair hidden in his eyes.

"I..." Lucius said, as if he wanted to say something, but it was difficult to speak. "Who knows when that man will come back, boy."

Helga trembled when she heard this, and she stared at Lucius, seeing the affirmation in his eyes and the exhaustion that could not be concealed.

"That's an irrational leader, and I don't think he's right, Father."

Lucius nodded, and then said: "When I was 16 years old, I lost my father. At that time, I was neither mature nor prepared. I became the head of the Malfoy family in a daze."

Helga frowned slightly, listening to Lucius' narration.

"Everyone is eyeing me and the property of the Malfoy family behind me." Lucius smiled wryly. "At that time, the crisis encountered by the Malfoy family was no stronger than when those people met the Black family."

"I thought the Black family would help me, but they hesitated. Even at that time, Sissy and I were kindred spirits, but how could they believe me, a 16-year-old boy." Lucius recalled that gloomy period At that time, at that time, he didn't know who he could trust, as if everyone around him were monsters, each with hungry red eyes, coveting the fat of the Malfoy family, a wild beast that could rush up and take a bite at any time.

"Until that person saw me." Lucius lowered his head, the light cast a light and a shadow on his face, his voice was low and hoarse, talking about those past events. "He chose to accept my loyalty, and I got his protection. He smiled and told about the close relationship between himself and my father, and then said to everyone that if I have any difficulties, I can ask him for help. He I am willing to take care of the children of old classmates."

"He is a terrible person, I don't deny this, but when the Malfoy family and I were in the most danger, he accepted my surrender and gave me a chance to breathe. At that time, I had no choice. "

Helga asked bitterly, "Are you grateful to him?"

Lucius subconsciously loosened his neckline, and after a while he said: "I don't know, kid, I was really grateful at the beginning, even if I chose to hurt an innocent person in order to become one of his subordinates and join it .”

Lucius said shamefully, almost grimly: "To join him, you must do a terrible and evil thing. As a test, although I hypnotize myself, I have no choice but to protect my family, but in my heart It's clear that I hurt innocent lives."

An ominous premonition arose in Helga's heart. She stared straight at Lucius, but Lucius turned his head away from his daughter's eyes, which made Helga's heart sink completely.

"In the beginning, he was not as crazy as he was later, and I also think his path is the right one. I admired that person, ever." Lucius looked at his hands and said with a wry smile. "Even if he made me do such a terrible thing, at that time, I didn't regret it."

At least at that time, he really devoted his passionate ideals to that person.

"However, I can't tell when, but at that time, I seemed to suddenly feel very tired, very tired, and this tiredness has been accumulated until your birth, Doris." Lucius said at this time , turned his head and looked at Helga. "I suddenly realized that what I was doing didn't make the Malfoy family stronger, didn't give my wife and children a safe and stable life. Obviously before, my biggest wish was to protect my family, my home .”

"The child of the Black family can advance or retreat. The Black he represents actually doesn't have many things that are worth coveting by others. Then, he himself showed his outstanding talents. Even if it is because of his father, Snape is very It's because he doesn't like that child, but when he talks about that child with me, he has to admit his talent."

Malfoy was a little unwilling: "He is a suitable choice for you. No matter what the future holds, he can guarantee his own safety and probably protect you."

Helga frowned, but unfortunately, she couldn't explain the complicated relationship between herself and Godric at this time.

Lucius took a deep breath and continued: "Even if that person comes back in the future, it's a big deal, I can give up on you, even if the Malfoy family gave up on you, you might suffer a little bit of grievance at school, but Doris, believe us , me and your mother will do everything possible to protect you and Draco."

"In the end, whatever the outcome, you and Draco will be fine."

This is the best arrangement Lucius could think of. Even if he comes back and he wins, as his most useful subordinate, he can still deal with protecting his daughter and son-in-law. His daughter will not have anything to do with him. Those people who could accept Andromeda of the Black family could also accept the daughter of the Malfoy family.

"Dad, do you know what that diary is?" Helga asked suddenly.

"I don't know!" Almost without any hesitation, Lucius blurted out this sentence, any he added emphatically. "I don't know anything, I don't know what that is." He looked at Helga with a hint of warning.

So, in fact, he knew.Helga looked at Lucius and probably understood what he was thinking.

No matter which diary is, Lucius can give an explanation, an explanation that he thinks can fool the mysterious person, and whether Lucius found anything, so he threw the diary out anxiously, No one could be sure of his intentions, because it was absolutely impossible for Lucius to admit what he had discovered.

When he agreed to the engagement of Helga and Godric, Helga understood Lucius' meaning very keenly. He had no hope for his future, and he was taking his daughter away from him. , This is the retreat he arranged for Doris Malfoy.

Helga clenched her fists, not wanting to accept the offer.

Lucius eased his nervous tone, and continued: "Since you and Boy Black are going to be together in the future, it is normal for you to try to get in touch with his social circle. I don't think anyone will blame a little girl in love for fawning over him." The behavior of my boyfriend."

Helga frowned, very unwilling to accept this relationship with Godric, even if Lucius said that this would allow her to socialize with students from other colleges, he still found it difficult to accept.

Lucius comforted Helga: "Don't worry, I have arrangements with your mother, I will pretend to be dissatisfied with your feelings in the future, but I will agree with you and Blake's child because of your mother's request Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not choose to disassociate you from the Malfoy family, perhaps, you can still marry that kid with my company."

Thinking that one day Helga would go to that Blake with his arm in his arms, and then he would grit his teeth and hand over his daughter to him, Lucius felt like crying.

But even if he doesn't like Godric, he must admit that he is a very good child, among the top ones at his age, it is acceptable to entrust his daughter to him, and he will protect it. His own daughter's, just like when he was a little doll, when everyone was staring at the Black family, and when his grandmother was seriously ill, he could still keep the empty shelf of the Black family. He had always doubted that the child would be so Decisively giving up part of the interests is to survive by docking the tail.

Moreover, he bet that that cunning boy still kept part of the family business. Researching potions was not an easy task, and it cost money.

If Phineas of the Black family is really poor, he might not even be able to pay for the medicine that Mrs. Black takes, but the old Mrs. Black’s body can last until now, and the money spent is nothing Small amount.

"Daddy," Helga said with a toothache. "I don't want to get engaged just yet! No! I definitely don't want to get engaged right now!"

Lucius looked over in surprise, and didn't seem to understand: "Don't you like that child from the Black family very much?"

I really want to tell him directly!

Helga held her breath, blushed, and found a very careless excuse: "Your daughter is still young! Still very young! Anyway, I just don't agree to the engagement!"

Lucius sighed, why is this child Doris so untimely and shy? Forget it, the child must be a little confused because she knows too much information.

"Then listen to you, don't worry for the time being, after all, you two are not very old."

Helga felt better all over, and finally made him give up the damned idea.
