Lestrange patriarch Borg tightly clenched his left hand into a fist, forced a smile and apologized to the French nobleman who had had a good chat before, then turned and left in a hurry.Soon he saw his son Rodolphus who also had a bad face.

"Father." A trace of panic flashed in Rodolphus' eyes when he saw his father, and then he quickly bowed his head and saluted his father.

Worried about why Voldemort would suddenly summon them with the Dark Mark at this time, Borg Lestrange missed his son's unnatural expression at that moment, lowered his voice and asked, "Rodolphus, do you know what happened? ?"

"I don't know." Rodolphs replied without confidence.

At this time, the pain from the Dark Mark became more intense, and they felt the anger from Voldemort at the same time.

"Rodolphs, let's go there quickly." As soon as Borg Lestrange finished speaking, the two people who had already walked to no one's place teleported to their master's side in obedience to the call of the Dark Mark.

Just after the trance brought by the teleportation, the father and son saw two Blacks, Orion and Signus, standing in front of Voldemort with pale faces.

Could it be that the Black family did something to anger the Lord?Borg Lestrange couldn't help but chuckle.If this is the case, the Lestrange family is very likely to take over, replacing the current second place of the Black family, and becoming Lord's most valued confidants.

"Rodolphs, do you know where Bella is?" Voldemort glanced around at the summoned people, and then spoke slowly, with a faint question that could not hear any emotion, but Rodolphs was startled. His whole body trembled, and even his voice changed.

"Lord, I, I don't know..."

"Really?" Voldemort was noncommittal, looked at Rodolphs, and remained silent for a while.

It was only at this time that Borg Lestrange realized that something was wrong. It wasn't the Black family who made a mistake as he expected. Voldemort's anger seemed to be directed at Rodolphus!Bella?Something to do with that damn Black woman?

And the regret in Rodolphs' heart surged up with a bitter taste, and dense cold sweat covered his forehead.He vaguely knew what Bella was thinking, and he also guessed at this time that Bella should have done something, which is why Voldemort was so angry at this time.Why didn't he firmly stop Bella's misconduct!Rodolphs looked around the room in fear, but he didn't see anyone else, and he didn't know if Bella really hurt Severus Springs, or if there were any serious consequences.

"Since you all say you don't know, then," Voldemort stood up and walked towards the opposite room, "come with me, you may have a lot to say to me."

Several people looked at each other, suppressed the uneasiness in their hearts, and followed Voldemort with their heads down.The moment the door on the opposite side opened, the room filled with early summer sunshine made them feel the chill that pierced their bones—Bellatrix Lestrange was lying lifelessly On the ground not far from the door, an aura of black magic emanated faintly from the body in the black dress.

Rodolphs, who was walking at the back, gave a weak leg and almost fell to the ground.

"Lord..."

Cygnus Black looked at his daughter who seemed to be dead, and his face became even uglier, "Lord, I don't know what Bella did? She is..."

Voldemort glanced softly at Severus, who was resting on the sofa, and turned around with only a biting coldness in his eyes: "Rodolphs, what do you want to say now?"

The magic wand of Phoenix Tail Feather was held tightly in Voldemort's hand. He restrained himself from losing control. What he wanted to do most at this moment was to torture Rodolphus with the Cruciatus Curse, regardless of whether he knew about Bellatrix or not. He just vented his anger on Si's matter!He wanted to pour all his anger on anyone related to Bellatrix!But he didn't want to show his brutal side in front of Severus, in front of their children.

"Lord, I..." Rodolphs knelt on the ground with a plop, crawled a few steps towards Voldemort, "I really don't know exactly what Bella did, really, please believe me... "

"If you don't know the details, tell me what you know." Voldemort looked at Rodolphus and snorted coldly.

"Yes, yes. All I know is that Bella has always been jealous of Mr. Prince. After knowing that Prince was pregnant with your child, she stayed in the family library for a long time, looking for something."

Signus couldn't help but froze when he heard this.Bella also went back to Black's old house and spent a whole day in the library...

Rodolphs continued crying: "More than half a month ago, she suddenly stopped going to the library and often stayed alone in the room. I asked her if she had thought of some way, but she refused to tell I, just say..."

"say what?"

"She said she would... let that, Mr. Prince lose everything he didn't deserve."

"Cruciatus!" Voldemort finally couldn't hold back, a red light flew towards Rodolphus.Rodolphs curled up on the ground and twitched slightly, the pain that penetrated his soul made him drenched in cold sweat.

Gellert, who was standing by the window as if looking at the scenery, raised his eyebrows and didn't look back.They all checked just now, and the woman Bellatrix used some kind of forbidden black magic and suffered a backlash.There should have been some signs of abnormality in her behavior in the past few days, and he didn't believe that Rodolphs, as her husband, really didn't notice it.

Severus frowned, he hadn't expected Bellatrix to have such a strong resentment towards him.

"Since you know that Bella is going to harm Sev, why don't you report it?" Voldemort looked coldly at Rodolphus who was lying on the ground and groaning in pain.

Borg Lestrange's heart had already sunk to the bottom at this time, he had never imagined that things would turn out like this.Bellatrix is ​​so mad that she dares to do such a thing!Even his son was so tired...

"Lord, please, please calm down..." Borg Lestrange looked at Orion, who bowed his head silently, and Signus, who was full of panic, from the corner of his eye, stood up and prayed through gritted teeth .

"Calm down?" Voldemort sneered, ignored Borg's plea, and used Instinct on Rodolphus.

Rodolphus' recent experiences flashed before Voldemort's eyes, but there was nothing related to the black magic used by Bellatrix. This cautious and timid man actually knew that his wife used taboo After the black magic, in order to protect himself, he didn't even ask a question.

"Trash!" Annoyed, Voldemort threw a Cruciatus Curse at Rodolphus again, shouting as he watched him writhe on the ground with a livid face.

Severus looked up at Severus who was standing aside, and found that his face had also become very ugly. At this moment, his right hand was tightly grasping his left arm, and a circle of marks had been bitten on his lower lip.

Had he ever been tortured by the Cruciatus Curse?Severus thought to himself.

Gently tugging at Severus' clothes, Severus tried to divert his attention, but to no avail.In fact, he himself hated Bella and Rodolphs deeply, because the so-called jealousy hurt him, let alone, but he couldn't forgive the hurt of the child because of it.

"Lord, this is all because of Bella, please punish." Signus finally came to his senses amidst Rodolphs' painful cry, he understood the seriousness of this matter, even though Bella was married When he arrived at the Lestrange family, the Black family would never be able to get rid of their ties. Only if he stood up and took on everything would it be possible to keep the Black family without harming the foundation.

Voldemort looked at Signus without saying a word, the cold gaze that seemed to make Signus, who was lying on the ground, cold all over his body, and he didn't dare to utter a breath.

And Rodolphs gradually stopped making a sound, and just lay on the ground trembling.The room suddenly fell silent.Waiting for the verdict, the Black brothers and the Lestrange father and son almost had the illusion of suffocation.

"Severus." At this time, the door of the room was knocked again, and Lucius' voice came in.

Severus stood up, walked over to Voldemort, and gave him a worried look.This matter involves the Black family, and Narcissa is Bellatrix's own sister. He doesn't want Lucius to wade into this muddy water. On Hughes...

Voldemort also saw what Severus was thinking, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and gave Severus a reassuring look, "Come in."

Lucius, who heard Voldemort's voice, pushed open the door suspiciously, and then became the third group of people who were frightened by the scene in the room.

But the platinum youth quickly adjusted his mood, lowered his head slightly and said to Voldemort: "Lord, it's almost time. I came to tell Severus to get ready, but I didn't expect you to be here."

Lucius' reaction made Voldemort show a look of admiration, and he nodded slightly: "Yes. Everyone is here?"

"Yes, Dumbledore is here too."

After Voldemort heard Dumbledore's name, he glanced at Gellert by the window indiscriminately, "Alright, Lucius, you can go get ready."

Lucius nodded to Severus and left the lounge as if he didn't see Rodolphus and the others.He understood that unless Voldemort brought it up, he should pretend he hadn't seen anything.

After Lucius left, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.Severus understood that Voldemort didn't mean to anger Lucius, so he no longer worried about his friend.And Orion and Signus also understood that Voldemort would take care of the Malfoy family and not blame Narcissa, which made them less worried.

"Orion, you and Signus go out too. Borg, you take Rodolphus back, I don't want to see him again. As for Bella," Voldemort's handling made them seem to crawl out of hell Usually, this pause made them hold their breath again, "She is not dead yet, I need to know what forbidden magic she used. Nagini."

The little Nagini girl with a red bow tied to her tail soon came to the lounge. Except for Voldemort, Severus and Gellert, everyone else froze in place, especially after being bitten by Nagini. Dead Severus.

'Hiss~Tom, Sev, you are all here~'

'Hiss~ Help me keep an eye on this woman, don't let her run away. '

Nagini crawled to Bella's side, stretched out the snake letter and licked it, "Hiss~ she doesn't taste good~"

'...Hiss~ It's not for you to eat, I still have something to ask her. '

'Hmm, Tom, you are too stingy. ' Nagini rolled on the ground.

"Hiss~ There are lambs for you in the basement..." Voldemort felt his anger gradually replaced by helplessness, why after all these years, Nagini is still the same as when he was a child.

Severus was also a little helpless. After Nagini came in, Severus' reaction was stronger than that of Cruciatus just now. With Occlumency activated, his whole body was stiff, his face was pale, and his forehead was densely covered with sweat. He patted Severus' shoulder, Severus explained, "Nagini was playing with Tom."

Severus' words reminded Voldemort, the Nagini who was bitten into this world by that world in front of him, frowning, Voldemort slowed down his tone: 'Hiss~ take this woman to the basement . '

Nagini, who was only thinking about the lamb, obediently left the room with Bella in his mouth.

Seeing Nagini leave, Severus pursed his lips, took out a wand and handed it to Severus, "Look, I have a spare wand here, you can use it."

"...Thank you." Severus, who had been caught in painful memories, also came back to his senses.Facing his murderer, the always strong Severus was at a loss for what to do.Fortunately, Severus thoughtfully changed the subject.At this time, he truly felt the difference between the Slytherin king in front of him and the Dark Lord he knew, this one was obviously more humane than the Dark Lord.
