Chapter 190 Maggie's Dissatisfaction with Draco
"Sirius Black has been spotted here. You can continue your ordinary study abroad life."
Annika read the torn letter over and over again to make sure there was only this sentence on it. Della, who had calmed down a little from her coldness, listened to Annika's report and put Maggie on the table.
Annika understood and walked to Maggie to show her the letter. Maggie's snake tail touched the letter paper in a circle, and finally stopped at the lower right corner of the letter paper. "Hai-xi (some small magical fluctuations, probably invisible ink)."
"Do you know the Apparition spell?" Della looked at Annika.
"Yes! This is a compulsory course for us!" Annika said, and she quickly took out her magic wand and touched the letter paper. "All revealed!" She said this, and some blue words immediately appeared on the paper.
Almost at the same time, Maggie's face, which obviously didn't show much emotion, fell completely. Della thought the letter contained some extremely bad news, such as "Voldemort has been resurrected early". She looked at Annika and asked, "What does it say?"
"Um..." Annika blinked, her expression became very strange, she stammered to describe the letter, "There are, uh, two Ds in a row, and, there is a sentence, uh..."
"A what?" Della subconsciously thought of Dumbledore's D. She looked at Annika seriously, and Maggie also looked at Annika seriously, but one wanted her to speak faster, and the other wished that she could be as perceptive as Trevor.
"It's still written on it, I think about you every day!" Annika said this as if she was ready to die. Maggie turned the snake head aside angrily, and Della was stunned.
DD, it was Draco and Della, and Draco couldn't stop thinking about her.
He also touched Snape's letter? I couldn't imagine it.
Della took a small step back and covered her mouth in surprise. A bitter feeling suddenly rose in her throat. When she came to her senses, the corners of her eyes seemed to be moist, and her longing surged up like a tide.
She had thought about Draco before, but never with such a rush of emotions.
It wasn't easy, Draco. Did you spend the whole September staring at Angel just to write these two sentences?
Draco, you are so timid, yet you dare to touch Snape's letter. I really admire you.
Compared to Draco, I am really...
Della lowered her raised hand to her side and stood up straight again. Her eyes shifted from the letter to Annika's face. She said gently, "Please put the letter away for me, Annie."
Annika's whole face flushed as she heard her pet name come out of the mouth of the admiring Miss Riddle, knowing that this episode had brought her and Della Riddle a step closer.
"Of course, I'll do anything for you!" Annika put her hand on her chest to show her loyalty, and immediately folded the letter carefully and put it into the envelope, and then put the letter into her pocket very carefully.
The list was proof of the trust between the Riddles and the Rochier family, and the letter was proof of the trust between her and Della Riddle!
This damn girl.
Maggie, the only unhappy person present, stared at Annika and unconsciously used the ungentlemanly but very emotional expressions he had heard in Country M. Having stayed in Country M for a month and a half, he had more or less been influenced by the bandit spirit of that group of people. He had not been happy to see Della for long when he encountered such a big surprise.
Am I destined to never get rid of that childish ghost?
Being childish is just a small matter. Maggie cannot tolerate Della's possible irrationality after she becomes emotional.
Thinking of this, Maggie looked at Della, who was already sitting at the coffee table drinking tea, with her eyes that had turned vertical without her knowing. She calculated in her mind how likely it was that she would get Malfoy to join their business this month.
Dag came back at this time, bringing with him a carefully prepared snack tower and some letters. While the house elf was setting up the coffee table, he walked up to Della, bent down slightly, and handed over the important letters with both hands. Then he asked carefully, "We have already reached a profit-sharing agreement with the Holt family, and have also agreed to hold a dinner party on Halloween night. This is the list we have prepared temporarily."
As he said that, he handed over the list with both hands. Della took it and glanced at the list, which was almost entirely made up of wizards from Country F. She knew that Rochelle and the others had adopted a conservative attitude and were just waiting for her approval this time.
"We can add some more people," Della raised her hand and made a virtual grabbing motion, and the feather pen on the desk beside her flew into her hand. "Although I won't show up, it will also count as an appearance."
Della moved her quill quickly and wrote down the name she had already made up. She paused only when she wrote the name of the wizard from Country Y, and after turning the quill unnoticeably, she still wrote down the original name.
Maggie, who had been behind her, watched her write down Nott's name and breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, Della was still rational.
But as soon as Dag left with the new list, Maggie heard Della say to Annika, "Annie, do you know of a gift shop that will engrave the letters and ship them?"
Annika was excited again and Maggie was unhappy again.
With Della's current reputation, anything she said in public would be over-interpreted. Although she only said that she was sending a gift to Draco, any smart Malfoy family would know that it was a reminder.
Let them be smart and give you some advice. If you can satisfy her, why would Della only contact your youngest son?
Maggie knew that Della had been very restrained. Even though no one would object to her decision, she did not make the decision dictatorially according to her preferences. Instead, she maintained the fairness that a leader should have and practiced the principle of giving and getting.
But feelings are weaknesses, and he doesn't like Della to have weaknesses.
He has always been dissatisfied with Draco. He thinks Della is always too tolerant of Draco, but this doesn't make sense at all. Why should she be so tolerant of such an arrogant and awkward childish guy?
This was also his fault for neglecting to cultivate Della's outlook on love when she was a child. After all, he himself did not have such needs and experiences, and his previous guidance of Della had given his girl a hidden self-characteristic, and it was impossible to persuade her.
Maggie knew that Della had a unique dialectical perspective. When looking at a problem, if she saw the inner essence, she could overlook the superficial appearance of the problem. Della saw the interest disputes that had lasted for thousands of years after the theory of bloodline, so she generously forgave Draco for calling her a mudblood.
This was what he taught her. His original intention was to let Della think about problems calmly and grasp the essence of the matter, but Della learned it too well, and even Maggie regretted guiding her in this regard.
But if he had not taught little Della these things, Della would not have been qualified by him, and he would not be worrying about Della now.
Maggie herself did not have a systematic set of ideas and criteria for raising children, but when he came to his senses, Della was almost the same kind of him, the same kind of person he had carved out.
People like them should not be swayed by emotions, and "special" and "unique" should only exist among their own kind.
