Chapter 60 Malfoy
Merlin looked at the white lace boat socks on his legs, took them off with satisfaction, and put on black fishnet stockings.
"Father!"
Seeing that Lucius was about to leave the corridor, Draco plucked up the courage, pulled Hermione and ran to Lucius.
Lucius was obviously startled by his son, but he looked at the hands held together by the two with disgust in his eyes.
"How long do you want to hold on? Why don't you let go now!"
He couldn't tolerate his son being seduced by a Muggleborn and having him be so determined to do so.
Hearing this, Draco trembled instinctively.
Hermione, who was holding her hand, squeezed him gently, as if to give him courage.
Feeling Hermione's warmth, Draco closed his eyes and took a deep breath, adjusting his mentality.
"Mr. Malfoy, is the purity of your blood more important to you than Draco?"
Hermione plucked up the courage and expressed her feelings: "Yesterday, after Draco was under the curse, he wanted to protect me. At that moment, I knew that I liked Draco."
"Huh? A spell? Who cast the spell on him? You?"
Hearing this, Lucius became even more angry and hit the ground hard with his cane.
"Draco is my important son, he is more important to me than anything else."
"If he likes it, I can accept any pure-blood girl in the wizarding world, but not you."
"I can't tolerate my son being obsessed with a... Phew, Muggleborn like you."
"Not to mention you actually cast a spell on him! Let me think about it, a love potion?"
"You despicable little witch, how dare you..."
Hearing this, Draco couldn't help it. When he opened his eyes, his gaze had become firm.
"Father!"
Draco put his arm around Hermione's shoulders and met Lucius's shocked gaze, feeling fear in his heart.
"I was not cast any random curses, I was just cast a Cruciatus Curse by Lumi."
"The Cruciatus Curse!?"
Hearing that word, Lucius's eyes widened in shock. He, who had always been elegant, was now panicking.
He hurriedly walked to Draco and wanted to reach out and touch Draco's chest.
He didn't even notice that his hands were trembling.
He was afraid Draco's heart would be damaged.
You know, the damage done to the soul also has an impact on the body.
Until he touched Draco's chest, he was sure that Draco's heart was still beating strongly and there seemed to be nothing wrong.
At this moment, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his whole body relaxed.
"How dare he, Lumi?"
Lucius stood up angrily and wanted to go back to the principal's office to question Lumi.
But thinking of Lumi's strength, he couldn't move his feet no matter what.
"Lumi, he means no harm."
Seeing his angry father, Draco suddenly panicked and said hurriedly: "The Cruciatus Curse only took effect on me for half a second, and now I don't feel uncomfortable anymore."
"Father, the Cruciatus Curse hurts so much that I can't help but tremble when I think about it now."
"But Father, I am more afraid of losing Hermione than the pain of the Cruciatus Curse."
"Please, Father, please allow us to be together."
When he said this, his head gradually lowered and his voice became louder and louder.
Hermione patted his back, her beautiful eyes fell on Draco's face, and she showed a faint smile.
With Hermione's encouragement, Draco raised his head, his eyes seeming to glow.
The same goes for Hermione. She feels that Draco is getting more and more beautiful, and her little heart is beating faster and faster.
She opened her eyes wide, looked at Lucius, and said, "Please, Mr. Malfoy, please allow us to be together."
The two little ones no longer held each other's arms, but stood together, looking at Lucius firmly.
Lucius had a strange expression when he saw the interaction between the two.
He is very confused now.
He didn't know what happened yesterday, that the relationship between Draco and this Granger would become so good.
At first he thought it was Granger who took advantage of Draco's aesthetics and made his son enlightened in advance.
After hearing the curse, he thought it was Hermione who gave Draco the love potion.
But when he heard the Cruciatus Curse, he immediately recalled the time when he followed Voldemort more than ten years ago. At that time, he would be hit with the Cruciatus Curse by Voldemort from time to time.
Thinking back on that kind of pain still made him feel a dull pain in his body.
He couldn't imagine what it must have been like for a twelve-year-old Draco to be under the Cruciatus Curse.
The endurance of children is far lower than that of adults, and the Cruciatus Curse will not be merciful just because the target of the curse is a child.
Lucius was sure that the half-second of Cruciatus Curse Draco endured would definitely exceed his own experience.
This led Lucius to realize that when Draco said that he didn't care about the Cruciatus Curse, but only cared about Hermione, Lucius understood that Draco really fell in love with this Hermione Grant. Jay's girl.
And Hermione Granger, it seemed like she really liked Draco.
Lucius never considered himself a mean person when it came to his son's spouse.
As long as his son likes it, he is willing to propose marriage to any pure-blood girl from any family.
Even if the person he likes is the Weasley family, whom Lucius hates, Lucius is willing to bow to Arthur Weasley for the sake of his son.
But if the target was a Muggle, this would make Lucius very uncomfortable.
He, the Malfoy family, one of the twenty-eight holy families.
So far, all pure-blood families have followed the Malfoys' lead.
Isn't the reason just because of the lineage theory?
Once his son gets married to a Muggle, even if it only lasts a few days, the news will spread throughout the pureblood family.
By then, the Malfoys will lose the support of these families and will no longer be able to maintain their current status.
But do you really have to sacrifice Draco's happiness for the sake of your family?
Lucius knew that the friendship between the twelve-year-old wizards in front of him could not be summarized by just one adventure.
Lumi used the Cruciatus Curse on Draco, allowing Draco and Hermione to recognize each other's hearts and determine each other's status in their hearts.
At this point, it was unrealistic for Lucius to forcefully separate them. He could only use emotion and reason.
"Draco, you have to understand that our family... will not allow half-bloods and Muggles to marry in."
Lucius wanted to make it clear to Draco and Hermione: "And you, Miss Granger, your bloodline is not on Malfoy's shortlist."
"Any news about the two of you will put the Malfoy family into dire straits."
"Draco, think about it carefully. Without the support of the Malfoy family, how will you survive in Slytherin?"
"Daddy can take care of you when he's at school, but daddy will always leave school."
"And you, Miss Granger. Gryffindors have a habit of isolating others, as you should be aware of."
"So whether it is for your future life or my family, it is the best choice for you to separate."
Lucius said it very seriously.
If he were an ordinary pure-blood family patriarch, if he was just a small ordinary wizard family.
Then Draco would be with Hermione if he wanted to, and he wouldn't say anything more.
But his last name is Malfoy.
This surname shows it, whether it is Lucius, Draco, or Draco's future child.
They can only choose the person they like in the pure-blood circle, and they never have any other choice.
