Oh, both of you, shush. There's no point bickering. Bella, Lucius has a point: Hydra's bound to hear conflicting information now that she's at school. She's a good girl and I've no doubt she will continue to ignore Black as you have instructed. But surely it shan't be long before she asks why some of her acquaintances pay him even the slightest notice. As my husband says, there are those whose unhappy duty is to scrutinise the fool's every word.
Lucius, I know you meant well, darling, but Bella knows best how to manage Hydra. And there's no need to throw that odious person's continued existence in Bella's face, either. If he is still at large, it is not through her lack of trying, goodness knows!
