Harry Potter The Kiss

Chapter 27: The Truth about the Weasleys



Ragnok informed them that they had questioned Bill, Charlie and Percy Weasley, with their permission using Veritaserum, and none had any idea of acts against Harry or marriage contracts.

"They have asked to be present at the interview and I think we should allow it; they are understandably sceptical that this could be true; it really is a case of 'seeing is believing' with their parents."

This news pleased the couple giving them hope for the rest of the family being unawares.

They had decided to interview the Weasley's separately as Arthur was led into the room, saw the three people at the table but unaware of the minister and three of his son's presence.

He willingly took Veritaserum and the questions began with name, address, occupation before the real questions started:

Q "Did you sign a marriage contract between your daughter and Harry Potter?"

A "yes"

Q "did you know Dumbledore had no legal right to offer that contract?"

A "yes"

Q "why did you sign it"

A "Albus said it was a betrothal, and the kids could make their own mind up when Harry was sixteen, he wanted him with a light family"

Q "did you knowingly take money from the Potter account to pay Hogwarts fees for your children?"

A "yes, Albus said as they were betrothed we could use money for necessities, I wasn't sure this was strictly legal but at one point I had five children at Hogwarts at the same time. How do you choose which of your children you can afford to educate?"

Q "were any of your children aware of the marriage contract or fees being paid by Harry?"

A "no, I had hoped for Harry and Ginny as he's such a fine young man but a blind person could see his heart was already captured"

Q "did you know that Harry's magical core had been bound?"

A "absolutely not! Who would do such a thing?"

The questions finished there and Arthur was led away with Harry and Hermione felling relieved, he'd been duped by Dumbledore and taken money for his children's education.

Yes he broke the law but more importantly not Hermione and Harry's hearts!

Now they waited for Molly.

Molly entered and the difference couldn't have been more marked.

She had to be practically dragged into the chair by the goblin guards and then force-fed Veritaserum as she refused to take it voluntary.

The standard questions were asked then down to business

Q "Did you sign a marriage contract between your daughter and Harry Potter?"

A "yes"

Q "did you know Dumbledore had no legal right to offer that contract?"

A "yes"

Q "why did you sign it"

A "Albus said it would give us access to the Potter Vaults"

Q "did you knowingly take money from the Potter account to pay Hogwarts fees for your children?"

A "yes, of course! I wanted more but Arthur said a new kitchen wasn't a necessity! I tried to convince him for years!"

Q "were any of your children aware of the marriage contract or fees being paid by Harry?"

A "Ron knew we had to get Harry and Ginny together, his job was to keep Harry away from the mudblood bitch!"

Q "did you do anything else to force the match of Harry and your daughter"

A "Ginny was programmed to love Harry since she was little and I had the love potion all ready when that bloody tournament interrupted"

Q "did you know that Harry's magical core had been bound?"

A "yes, Albus said he had to die before Voldemort could be killed. I had to make sure Ginny was pregnant before Harry reached seventeen. I planned some lust potions for the summer holidays"

Q "why was it important Ginny was pregnant?"

A "to get the Potter fortune! If the baby was born before he died the stupid boy would make sure it was the heir"

"Get the bitch out of here while she's still alive!" screamed Hermione.

Fortunately the guards had been present yesterday and seen Hermione when her temper got away from her, grabbing Molly they ran out the door dragging her behind them.

When the lights came on fully Hermione was sobbing on Harry's lap, Bill and Charlie looked green while Percy was throwing-up in the corner.

Ragnok and Amelia were conferring while the two Aurors looked on, sickened by what they had seen today.

Bill and Charlie approached the couple but Harry said; "not now guys, we need to talk but give us a moment. Finding out your so-called best friend is a deceiving bastard and the woman, who was the nearest thing I had to a mother was just looking for a baby maker to get rich quick takes a bit of getting used to."

After everyone had cooled down a bit Harry and Hermione had lunch with Ragnok and the minister who asked what punishments were to be handed out.

The couple explained what they had in mind.

Winky and Dobby were looking over Potter properties with Griphook and working out where Hogwarts students could be temporarily housed when the deepest laughter they had ever heard reverberated through the entire building.
