Yes, that's what it was and it worked! Her father said she could go with whomever she wanted and she said yes.
I was well nervous about sending it, though, what? I mean to say, I had an inkling that he might be chuffed I thought to ask properly but there was still the possibility he'd take offence because of the arrangement with Marvolo.
Of course, I had to promise to stand aside if Marvolo changes his mind but I offered that anyway, in the first place.
Though it was well strange, in point of fact, because at first, Mr Lestrange didn't seem to realise that so many people here know Hydra's eventually meant to marry Marvolo. I mean to say, if there were a betrothal, even if it's unofficial, wouldn't her own father be privy to it? Mind you, I bally well choked when he asked whatever I meant by her long-term interests, I mean to say! It was the one moment I thought I'd gone and rumbled it for sure.
But it all worked out, what?
And I'm glad you've already got an escort. I thought you might have but well done, you.
