Harry Potter: The Muggle Crown Prince at Hogwarts
Chapter 455 The truth before death
Lance sneered inwardly.
...Do you still know that you are selfish?
He was sarcastic in his heart, but showed sympathy on his face, comforting him, "How can you think so? You are also doing it for the future of the family."
"Yes!"
The head of the Greengrass family seemed to have found a confidant and said sincerely, "You understand my painstaking efforts. I just ask you to tell me whether His Highness is still willing to accept the Greengrass family!"
He immediately sent someone to get the contracts for several stores in Diagon Alley and said, "As long as His Highness is willing to accept us, these stores will be treated as a meeting gift to His Highness!"
Lance glanced at it.
Unexpectedly, those stores were in good locations. Blair had complained to him that he couldn't buy these stores, which was hindering his plan to build a business empire.
He accepted the contracts and reciprocated the favor.
"Don't worry, I will make it clear to His Highness. Your Highness is the smartest and will definitely be able to make the most appropriate decision!"
He glanced at Astoria, who was sitting beside her. When she saw him looking at her, she smiled politely and nodded.
Lance suddenly said, "Miss Astoria, is your sister in good health? His Highness heard that she was unwell and asked me to send a letter of condolences."
Astoria was stunned and said quickly, "Since you are here, Greengrass certainly knows your concerns, so there is no need to bother His Highness."
She saw the other party nodded lightly, and just when she felt relieved, she heard the other party say, "It should be so. But since His Highness has entrusted this matter to me, how dare I just deal with it casually."
Lance said truthfully,
"I wonder if it's convenient for you to take me to visit Daphne?"
The head of the Greengrass family was stunned.
How is this going?Didn't you hear that the Muggle Crown Prince or the Knight Commander favored Daphne?Are these two the sultry types who only talk about romance behind the scenes?
If this is the case, it would be hard to ask this person to see Daphne...
Let’s have a good conversation now, don’t get into trouble!
Now he just hopes that Daphne will die obediently, just like she did for the past ten years, entering the coffin without any sense of existence until he needs the funeral for socializing.
However, Astoria graciously complied.
The smart and transparent sister never wanted to take away everything from her sister. Even if they later turned against each other, she still hoped to do something for her sister.
For example, as a former subordinate of His Highness, maybe my sister wants to meet the knight commander.
……
Daphne never thought that she would meet her end at the hands of her parents.
She thought that His Highness would abandon her, that the heir to a pure-blood family would stab her in the back, that Astoria would be unable to bear it and fight back against her...
But she never thought that her parents abandoned her.
She was locked in her bedroom, staring at the ceiling quietly, her face was pale, her eyes were black and blue from pain, and she looked like a skeleton.
There was another knock on the door.
"Sister, are you awake? Can I come in?"
Daphne said nothing.
Firstly, she really didn't want to face Astoria; secondly, she really didn't have the strength anymore.
Astoria did not give up, knocked on the door twice more, and said, "The Knight Commander was entrusted by His Highness to come here to visit you...sister? Am I coming in?"
Daphne still ignored the other person.
She knew that from the beginning, the Muggle crown prince was using her, and she was also using the crown prince.It's a pity that she is in a humble position and is weak, so she is just a mermaid.
More than ten days ago, she was deceived into going home and locked up.
It's not like she didn't use her contact badge to ask for help, but no one responded to her at all.
At this time, what good news can this knight bring?
Astoria waited and hesitated for a long time before making up her mind and pushing the door open.
She gently bent her knees to Lance, smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll wake up my sister."
Daphne closed her eyes when she heard the noise.
She had been tortured until she was cold and haggard. With her eyes closed silently, she looked like a cold corpse.
Astoria was so frightened that she almost lost her ladylike manner. She ran to her side in panic, put her finger in front of her nose, felt a slight breath, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at her sister with a sigh, saw her eyelashes trembling slightly, paused, and called out softly,
"Sister, the Knight Commander is here to visit you."
Daphne didn't open her eyes or speak.
Astoria sat quietly for a moment, then stood up and turned her back to her, and said, "Sister, I know you are awake. The Knight Commander came here specifically to visit you. If you don't want to see him, I will ask him to go back."
Daphne opened her eyes, her voice was weak but full of ridicule.
"meet him?"
"Do I think I didn't die quickly enough?"
Astoria was silent, realizing that it was impossible for her to communicate peacefully with her sister, so she said directly, "It doesn't look like he is here to add insult to injury. Besides, sister, you also want to know the attitude of His Highness!"
This time it was Daphne's turn to be silent.
Astoria said neatly, "I'll invite him in. You can talk to him without worry, no one will eavesdrop."
She invited Lance into the door, turned around and backed out.
Lance looked at the haggard Daphne, remained silent, and found a seat to sit down, almost three meters away from the bed.
He heard the other party say feebly, "Knight Commander, are you here to see my joke?"
Lance just smiled gently and said politely, "Miss Greengrass, Your Highness is deeply sympathetic to your situation and specifically asked me to come and visit - are you feeling better?"
Daphne closed her eyes and sneered weakly.
"As expected of a master and servant, he even pretends to be the same."
Lance was still gentle and said, "Thanks for the compliment."
The girl opposite stubbornly stood up and looked at him and asked,
"Lance Loren, I was abandoned today, but do you think you will never be abandoned? That crown prince is not a warm-hearted and good person!"
Lance raised his eyebrows in surprise, and raised the corners of his mouth in both sympathy and ridicule.
He sighed, "Miss Daphne, this is why I always thought you were not smart."
He stood up, his face was gentle, but his eyes were cold, and he said softly and heartily,
"Have you never thought about His Highness's position?"
Lance couldn't help but laugh, feeling full of confidence.
"——His Highness will always stand on the side of the Muggles. We are Muggles and have the dirty bloodline that you most despise! But in the eyes of His Highness, we are his responsibility.
"He will protect us."
"As for you..."
He shook his head slightly, "Pure-blood nobles? The power and wealth you control are destined to become His Highness's enemies!"
Those light purple eyes were cold.
"Miss Daphne, Your Highness has never been a cold person, but you have never stood on the same path as us!"
Daphne seemed to understand.
She fell back on the bed in shock and calmness, hatred and relief, and asked the last question, "...were you planning all of this?"
Whether it's her fight with Astoria or her parents' aroused bias...
It was all deliberately guided by these people...
Lance smiled softly and comforted, "Congratulations, Miss Daphne - you finally found the truth in front of death."
Daphne stared at him with her eyes open, watching helplessly as the other party took out a small box with complicated patterns and cast an unknown magic on her.
She felt that the magic power in her body was drained inch by inch, and she could no longer make a sound from her throat.
She seemed to see a white light, and in front of her were her parents and sister walking hand in hand.
They left talking and laughing.
Just forget about her completely.
