Harry Potter: This savior is a bit bad

Chapter 451 Curious Draco

Every Saturday after rehearsal, we would meet up at the Hog's Head Pub and have a Butterbeer.

"Aurora, even in Gryffindor right now, there are many people who are standing up for you..." Hermione held the wine glass, her face full of indignation.

"I watched the game, and your performance was impeccable. It's obvious that the French made up a story out of nothing. She was the first to accuse you, and then she turned the tables on you! She was just jealous that you were younger and received more attention than her..."

"Don't worry about what she thinks..."

I waved my hands with a nonchalant expression.

"But, in the next competition, Madame Maxime will still be a judge. If she continues to target us..." Qiu Zhang chimed in.

Since becoming Cedric's dance partner, she has become much less hostile to me.

"I heard that a new rule has been introduced. The next time we compete, we will judge based on the average score. The highest and lowest scores will not be included in the results."

Draco smiled.

This is what my father told us.

Even though Lucius withdrew from the tournament organizing committee, he still secretly provided me with support and protection.

Umbridge was a recognized lackey of Fudge in her desperate efforts to climb the social ladder, and the people around her had long been manipulated by the head of the Malfoy family.

It was no different than if Lucius were there in person.

He is the invisible hand.

Lucius manipulated the organizing committee to change the rules for me.

Dumbledore seemed fair and still hoped that the champion would come from Hogwarts.

The two warriors, no matter what, increased Hogwarts' chances of victory.

At this time, Dumbledore and Lucius both put aside their political positions.

Qiu Zhang was stunned for a moment, then he hid the worry in his eyes.

I knew she was thinking about Cedric.

In their opinion, the first battle was full of doubts and I did not show my true strength.

With the strength of a fourth grader, there is a clear gap when compared with a seventh grader.

Being able to pass the level so easily is inseparable from the support of the Malfoy family.

Without Madame Maxime to help me score points, Cedric's road to becoming the champion wouldn't have been so smooth.

It's just because everyone is in a different position.

I don't blame her.

As the Christmas dance got closer, our rapport became stronger with more rehearsals.

"Aurora, Mom told me that the dress rehearsal will be completely different from the usual practice..."

Tofan Clothing Store has delivered a dress tailored to my size.

Its skirt is flowing, as if it contains all the stars in the universe.

The slim fit design highlights the perfect waist-to-hip ratio and outlines the slender body lines.

I wanted to look stunning at the ball, so I never wore it to show Draco.

Even when trying on makeup, she went to Tufan Clothing Store alone to ask the designer for help.

Looking at myself in the mirror, I imagined the astonished eyes of Draco and Harry.

I couldn't help but blushing.

I can't stand my own narcissism...

In the safe, there are priceless jewels that Narcissa helped me match...

Astonishingly precious.

I have only seen it in the catalogue of Sotheby's auction house.

It was actually treasured by the Malfoy family early on.

"But I want to reveal my costume at the Christmas ball..."

"Why, you're afraid that someone will copy your idea after you unveil it in advance?"

"It's not like we don't have any. It would be so embarrassing to wear the same clothes as you!"

"For this dress, we have already bought the exclusive design from Tufan Clothing Store. Moreover, no other store can imitate such workmanship..." Draco did not give up and continued to persuade me, "I am so curious, can you satisfy my desire, Aurora?"
