alt_luciusRosa,
I should like to know what game you think you are playing. I have just had several minutes' conversation with your daughter - she is, I believe, still your daughter - in which she imparted to me certain particulars concerning your attitude regarding her inheritance.
I cannot countenance why you should choose this time of year to grow obstinate. And why you should create such a commotion on the day we are expecting several hundred guests is quite beyond me. It is not to be borne.
One surmises that this childish behaviour and disregard for your own future is not what Campbell envisioned when he extended his offer. Nonetheless, you were acquainted with the consequences of remarriage when you first set your cap for him; if you have come to regret your course, then you have within your hands the means to remedy the situation. However, if you are, as I suspect, committed to your relationship, then you must also accept the transfer of the Parkinson estate as set forth by your late husband's will for the protection and welfare of his only heir.
This peevishness is most unseemly - not to mention damaging to Pansy's well-being and continued health. Having only just learned the extent of your extortionist tactics, I am surprised her condition has not flared in response. As it is, she has been reduced to sobs of frustration in my office - not at all the sort of turn one would imagine for a holiday party.
I have not the time nor the inclination to converse further on the subject at present. I shall expect you to-morrow morning at half-nine to explain yourself and to make provision for Pansy to allow her to complete her shopping.
I hope I need not remind you of the repercussions should you fail to comply.
L.S. Malfoy
