Chapter 7

Constructions had progressed great. They had started a week ago, and things couldn't look better, Woodsey's was already finished and running, getting a lot more costumers. Hadrian's bakery and Remus bookshop were opening today. And the other shops were only a few days from finishing. The teahouse and restaurant would open tomorrow.

All of it looked good, the last week had been a busy one, and the Prewetts had confronted their family, which had let to an argument in the middle of Diagon Alley. The twins had changed their shop from Weasley Wizard wheezes to Prewett Prank Pallor, or PPP now, something that had been noticed rather quickly. Hadrian had been visiting and briefing them on the constructions when the Weasleys had come in, shouting and raving at them.
At the sight of him, they started trying to convince him to change the twins' mind. Which had him laughing and with a sneer informing them he didn't help thieves and liars.

A couple of pale Weasleys had left in the end, probably wondering how to support their lives with their income turning against them and their oldest sons turning their back to them.
It made the twins and Hadrian feel good, start of the revenge plan was set in motion.

Other matters on the Weasleys, Hadrian had put an article in the Daily Prophet, revealing their fraud and cheating ways to the whole world. Resulting in Mr. Weasley being fired, Granger losing her place in the Law school and the youngest Weasley children to have to stop with Auror training. He also put in an article about the construction in the Alley, which has received enthusiastically. He had already received a lot of letters of people searching for a job and applying for one or more shops. This made him more than happy.

He planned on organizing visits to those people and telling them if they were hired or not, most of them were, but others were put on hold because he, the Woodsey's or his godparents really didn't know them and couldn't make the decision.

As it was now, the restaurant was full on staff, as was the tea house and menagerie. They still looked for about 3 people to work in the camping shop and some weekend staff for Remus' shop.
They also had an appointment to visit Malfoy Manor and ask Draco whether or not he wanted to have his own potion shop, with help from his godfather, which was scheduled for that afternoon.

For now, Remus' and Hadrian's shop would open, for half a day, letting the masses get introduced to the way they worked and what they offered, seeing as they were still in construction, so they still had time to move forward in that.

Hadrian had, specially for this event, baked everything he could think of, making his front window and the stands full of delicious looking patisserie and baking's. Sirius had already tasted most of it, yesterday when Hadrian was baking his goodies, claiming them to be heavenly, the praise he was aiming for.

The moment his doors opened, people began streaming in. Looking around or talking with him, Sirius or Seamus, who had been hired as waiter. Lots of people had exclaimed their wonder at the taste of his baking's, also claiming them to be heavenly good and when leaving promising to return soon, with friends, their husband or the kids.
He knew that now it wouldn't be long before he would be pleasantly busy, with all the costumers he would be having. Not that he minded, he looked forward to it.

When he closed the shop for the afternoon, they had only opened in the morning, which would happen every morning until the constructions and hiring was finished, in one week time.

Hadrian had recently moved to the flat above his shop, as had Sirius and Remus above Remus' shop. Leaving Grimmault Place to its gloomy environment and starting fresh. The flat was a 2 story, with a 1 story flat above it, which he rented to Seamus and Dean right now. After a quick shower he redressed and entered Remus' shop, where his godfathers were waiting to leave to Malfoy manor. This was quite the experience, they had no idea what to expect, only that a lot of former death eaters residence there. And according to the rumors so did the former Dark Lord.

That's it for this chapter,
next will be the visit to Malfoy Manor.
Hope you stay tuned!
