Chapter 57

~6 min read 1,135 words

"Don't tell your mother about this!"

Lucius said suddenly.

He now felt some regret; he shouldn't have thought that Draco had grown up a little and then demonstrated how to use the Blood Curse for him.

But he couldn't figure out how Darren Potter could be his child...

"Wait, Father, Darren Potter wouldn't have known from the beginning that he was your child, would he?"

Draco's face changed a little.

He felt he had lost all face!

"No..."

Lucius shook his head, opened his mouth, and said, "Lily Potter and I both don't know about this, so he certainly wouldn't know either. He hid and didn't go to the infirmary probably because his wounds heal quickly, and this potential appeared in his blood. According to my findings, his wound healing speed is about 500% that of a normal person. When necessary... you can provide him with some cover."

Lucius said hesitantly.

This child had come suddenly.

He didn't even know how to face this child.

Logically speaking, the Malfoy family had few members, and if another child came, he would certainly be happy to hold a banquet.

But Darren was different, because he was Harry Potter's brother, and also because he truly loved Narcissa.

Since he wasn't born to Narcissa, how could he bring him home?

Let alone celebrate.

"Wait, Draco, find a way to get another drop of Harry Potter's blood. He wouldn't also be my..."

Lucius only just remembered that Darren and Harry were twins.

It couldn't be!

If Harry Potter was also his seed, he suddenly felt that something was not right in his heart!

"No, I don't want that!"

Draco said resistantly.

He could barely accept Darren Potter as his brother, but if Harry Potter were his brother, he would go crazy.

"It's just a possibility... I remember the most likely time I had contact with Lily Potter. It was that one time they took Lily Potter away to torture her, and we all drank a lot of wine... maybe it was then? Besides that time, I can't think of any other time. That time, Lily Potter was already pregnant, and later gave birth to twins. So at most... at most only one is mine, the other is definitely not mine... should be, right?"

Lucius had seen many examples of twins having two different fathers.

Although Darren's case was a bit more bizarre.

But it was possible...

After all, in the wizarding world, these things could happen.

Especially Harry Potter's face, which didn't look like his at all, so this child shouldn't be his, right?

Lucius rubbed his hands nervously.

He had heard from Snape that the Dark Lord was coming back.

He believed this deeply; they all knew that person would definitely return.

Because the Dark Mark on his arm already represented that the person hadn't completely died.

If—he meant if—if Harry Potter was his seed, would the Dark Lord torture him a hundred times with the Cruciatus Curse?

"Father, I don't want Harry Potter to be my brother!"

Draco felt like he was going to cry.

He firmly refused to have that guy Harry Potter as his brother.

Having a reckless lion as his brother, he couldn't afford to lose that much face.

He once thought Harry Potter was a celebrity and it would be better to be friends.

Now that he thought about it, he felt Darren was better.

At the very least, Darren was sorted into Slytherin, and he had saved him today!

Although it also let him learn such terrifying news.

"Alright, Father, if you insist..."

Draco said conflictedly.

If Harry Potter were his brother, then he decided he would never bother that guy again.

He would seal himself in the Slytherin common room and never go out to see those annoying Gryffindors again.

"By the way, Father, should we tell Darren Potter the truth?"

Draco asked again.

He suddenly felt a bit soft-hearted.

That guy actually lived a very miserable life.

Excluded by Slytherins, discussed as a bad guy by people from other houses.

Last time, he was even hit with the Cruciatus Curse by Miss Greengrass.

Although he admired that guy's resilience.

But after learning that the guy was his brother, he didn't feel that way at all.

He only felt that Miss Greengrass was too much, daring to bully someone from his Malfoy family!

Even if Darren carried the Potter surname.

He was still his Malfoy's person.

Think about it, Darren Malfoy.

It sounded quite nice.

"No, no, no, Draco, not every child needs to be acknowledged. If the Malfoy family acknowledges this, we would become the disgrace of the pure-blood circle. Don't forget, Lily Potter was a Muggle-born witch. You can take care of him appropriately, but there is no need to tell him about such things, and don't tell anyone else, including your mother!"

Lucius said urgently.

Darren's identity must absolutely not be told to anyone; it involved too much.

And Narcissa, if she knew about this, she would divorce him!

"Draco, you are already a man, you should understand the meaning of keeping a promise, right?"

Lucius said with a smile.

In fact, he planned to find a way to go to the school and then make an Unbreakable Vow with Draco.

He knew exactly what kind of character this child had.

When normal, he would remember to keep secrets, but if he got excited, he would be reckless.

Shit! What kind of mess is this!

How could Darren Potter be his seed?

And that unknown Harry Potter.

He hoped Draco could bring good news.

He hoped that one was James Potter's seed.

One Darren Potter was already enough for him to handle.

Lucius ended the call with Draco and fell back into confusion and conflict.

How could this happen?

Why did he make a mistake back then?

How could he explain this to Severus?

If he told Severus that Darren had his bloodline in his body, he worried his friend would Avada him.

So, this matter... must be kept secret, absolutely not a single word must leak out.

Damn it, he shouldn't have listened to Draco talk about these things today.

A little brat not going to the infirmary, what did that have to do with him?

Even if he heard it, he should have checked the reason himself, instead of letting Draco see it. Now it's impossible to do anything!

However.

What does that little brat look like?

Does he look like him?

He suddenly felt a bit of heartache. Severus said that little brat grew up in a Muggle orphanage.

This is truly...

If he had known about this back then, he would have certainly hidden that child.

A child of his Malfoy family, even if born under such circumstances, shouldn't be put in an orphanage!
