Exactly which part of my wife's instruction that there was no need to answer did you fail to grasp, Weasley?
Kindly do believe Mrs Malfoy when she tells you not to trouble about going in to look for my diary. It would be a fruitless errand; I have not misplaced the book at all.
You are lucky that I am well aware of my first appointment on Monday and that we did not choose that item for alteration (though if truth be told, that is one reason I asked Narcissa to use it for her ruse).
No doubt you'll respond with some waffle about how not replying would have looked amiss. Nonetheless -
Nevermind. Barty's returned with news. We'll continue this on Monday.
