At this Draco looked relieved. He also noted that Narcissa appeared to be more relaxed. Narcissa used this opportunity to speak as well.

"The other day you had mentioned possible help...I think we're ready to accept that help," Narcissa softly commented. At the mention of this Lucius's expression was one of defeat and he looked away. So this was how she was going to get back at him.

Draco silently watched the battle going on between his parents a little amused by it. His father could never win against his mother. She always got her way.
