Just as Harry Potter was holding his wand in his hand and couldn't let it go, the doorbell of Ollivander's Wand Shop rang again. Everyone looked back and saw a middle-aged man in a noble suit but with a pale face walking in.
Seeing the person coming, Draco Malfoy quickly shouted: "Father, I'm here!"
The man who came was Draco Malfoy's father, Lucius Malfoy.
Lucius Malfoy glanced at his son, then turned his gaze to Wentworth. He recognized at a glance that the boy in front of him was the Hogwarts student who was taken by Dumbledore to watch the Quidditch World Cup last year.
"Hello Wentworth, it's been a year since we last met. You've grown up a lot!"
Lucius Malfoy smiled and said to Wentworth.
Although he was dissatisfied with many of Dumbledore's actions, Lucius Malfoy was still afraid of Dumbledore's strength. Therefore, towards the young man in front of him who was obviously Dumbledore's favorite student, the cunning Lucius Malfoy still expressed his friendliness.
At this time, Draco Malfoy took Harry Potter's hand, walked to his father, and said excitedly:
"Father, let me introduce you to my new friend, Harry Potter! That Harry Potter!"
Hearing his son's introduction, Lucius Malfoy showed a hint of surprise on his face, and said to Draco Malfoy: "Well done, Draco, you two can definitely become good friends! Harry, about you..."
Just when Lucius Malfoy wanted to say something else to Harry Potter, Hagrid's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Harry, come and see what I bought for you?"
Harry Potter's attention was immediately attracted by the cage in Hagrid's hand. In the cage, there was a snow-white owl standing proudly.
It turned out that Hagrid did have a talent for choosing animals that others did not have. Even the knowledgeable Draco Malfoy was attracted to this snow-white owl.
Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy ran towards Hagrid and looked at the owl in the cage with great interest.
Just as Wentworth and Lucius Malfoy nodded and turned to leave, Lucius Malfoy suddenly called him.
"Wentworth, please!"
Wentworth turned around with some confusion and looked at Lucius behind him.
Lucius walked over slowly, looked at Wentworth, and said, "I remember, Wentworth, you once said that you also came from a pure-blood family. However, in the past year, I have asked all the pure-blood families in Europe, and it seems that there is no one of your age named Wentworth. So, I am very curious, which country are you from?"
Hearing what Lucius Draco said, Wentworth felt annoyed, but he said without changing his expression: "Mr. Malfoy, you seem to be very interested in me?!"
Then, without waiting for Lucius Malfoy to speak, Wentworth continued:
"But are you sure you have asked about all the pure-blood families in Europe? For example, the Grindelwald family!"
When Lucius heard Wentworth mention the Grindelwald family, his whole body immediately stiffened, and his already pale face lost even a trace of blood.
Seeing this, Wentworth raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if playing a prank, and said to Lucius Malfoy word by word:
"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Wentworth Grindelwald!"
As he spoke, Wentworth extended his right hand to Lucius Malfoy.
Seeing this, Lucius Malfoy hurriedly threw away his cane, and with some fear and trepidation, he grasped Wentworth's right hand with both hands, saying:
"Since you are here, last year the British Ministry of Magic..."
Before Lucius Malfoy could finish his words, Wentworth withdrew his right hand and continued:
"Yes, it was done by our Witch Party. If someone makes a mistake, he must be punished. Does Mr. Malfoy have a different opinion?"
Lucius Malfoy shook his head repeatedly and said, "Of course not! I think you did the right thing! I have long believed that some people in the British Ministry of Magic are not worthy of staying in their current positions!"
At this moment, Draco Malfoy walked in. Seeing Wentworth and Lucius Malfoy talking happily, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Father, what are you and Wentworth talking about?"
Hearing what Draco Malfoy said, Lucius Malfoy immediately said with a straight face: "Draco! How could you..."
But before Lucius Malfoy could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wentworth, who said:
"Your father asked me to take good care of you at Hogwarts. You must listen to me, Draco!"
Hearing Wentworth's words, Lucius Malfoy paused, then a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Yes, that's it!"
Seeing this, Draco Malfoy pouted and said with some dissatisfaction: "But, I..."
Before Draco could finish his words, Lucius immediately frowned and said to Draco:
"What? Do you have a problem with what I said?"
Seeing this, Draco immediately replied, "No, Wentworth is already my friend, and now he's my senior, I'm happy to do it!"
Hearing this, Lucius nodded with satisfaction.
At this moment, Harry Potter shouted from outside:
"I'm going to buy textbooks, do you want to come with me?"
Hearing Harry Potter's voice, Draco seemed to remember something and quickly said to Lucius:
"Father, today is Harry Potter's birthday. Hagrid said that Wentworth has prepared a birthday cake for Harry at home. I want to go too. What do you think?"
Hearing Draco's question, Lucius looked at Wentworth first, only to see that Wentworth had already walked out the door.
Lucius thought for a moment, nodded heavily, and said, "Of course, remember to buy him a birthday present. This is etiquette. Don't lose face for our Malfoy family!"
"Also, you will go to the station tomorrow with Wentworth and Harry. Your mother and I will meet you there with the things you will need for school."
As he spoke, Lucius took out a stack of gold Galleons from his pocket and handed it to Draco, then watched Wentworth and the others leave Ollivander's Wand Shop.
