Chapter 9 Banquet 2
The banquet prepared for Landric was quite lively.
Everyone was willing to give the Rozier family some face.
The ladies at the banquet huddled together in small groups, chatting about the two main characters of the event. The gentlemen and ladies also gathered, each with their own topics of conversation.
No one expected that the sudden closure of the Rozier Manor a few months ago was because the head of the Rozier family was pregnant. They had never heard of the head of the Rozier family having any partner or lover.
At this moment, Landric and Tana Rozier, the two hosts of the banquet, also made their appearance.
Tana Rozier seems to be born to be in the spotlight; the moment she appears, she steals everyone's attention.
She held Landric in her arms. Although no one could see Landric's face clearly, they could tell from his silver hair and fair skin that the child was quite handsome.
The moment Landric's face was revealed to everyone, they all gasped.
Wow, this boy has pale skin that looks like it would turn red if anyone touched it. His violet eyes, as bright as the Milky Way, are clear and sparkling. Almost no one could resist his smile.
Everyone thought so, but when they observed Landric more closely, they found that the child seemed to have a deathly aura, neither sad nor happy, and did not look like a baby at all.
Perhaps misled by Landric's face, everyone felt that something was wrong, as if the child was sick, but they also felt sorry for him.
At this point, no one was thinking about the issue of the child's father anymore.
Narcissa Malfoy naturally saw Landric as well, and it could be said that Narcissa fell in love with the boy in that instant. Who wouldn't love a good-looking boy?
Logically speaking, a declining Rosier family wouldn't warrant the presence of a Malfoy, but the Malfoys have been under immense pressure lately due to the Dark Lord, so having a chance to relax makes it worthwhile for Narcissa Malfoy to attend.
Narcissa's Draco was also born in early June, specifically on June 5th, which is the same birthday as Landric.
Narcissa Malfoy also considered hosting a banquet for Draco, but the Malfoy family were, after all, the most capable men in the Dark Lord's eyes, and hosting a banquet at this time would undoubtedly attract everyone's attention.
Narcissa feared that someone would use Draco Malfoy's party for their own purposes, so the idea of holding the party was ultimately abandoned.
When Narcissa saw Landric, she seemed to be bewitched and walked forward. Tana Rozier naturally saw her action, but Tana Rozier didn't say anything.
Tana Rozier noticed Narcissa's affection for her baby, so she didn't stop Narcissa when she reached out to hug Landric.
Narcissa gently held the child, which reminded her of Draco in Malfoy Manor.
She genuinely believed that the two children were destined to be together, since they were born on the same day.
Narcissa's fondness for Landric extended to his mother, Tana Rozier, who was also somewhat pleased with him, though she was unaware of the child's father.
Narcissa felt that since she had never met the child's father, he must be an irresponsible bastard.
Knowing that the banquet was about to end, Narcissa suddenly had an idea: she wanted to be the child's godmother.
The idea had been swirling in Narcissa's mind ever since it appeared, and she rushed back to Malfoy Manor after the banquet ended.
She needed to discuss it with Lucius, and she felt that Lucius would agree with her idea.
