"Lucy, I need you to schedule a last minute meeting with everybody on the board for 3:30 in the afternoon. Tell them that if they aren't there, I will consider replacements for them. Also, schedule a private meeting with Malfoy for 3." Blaise said to her personal secretary as she walked on her way to her office.

"Yes sugar. By the way, a Professor Dumbledore is waiting in your office for you." Lucy smiled to you. Lucy was a fifty-six year old southern woman from the states. She was the nicest person that Blaise had ever met.

"Thank-you Lucy." Blaise said as she walked into her office.

"Hello Professor Dumbledore. What brings you all the way out here?"

"Well, I just heard about a recent engagement between Mr. Malfoy and Miss Parkison, and I wanted to offer my condolences to you."

"So why did you really come here?" Blaise asked.

"Because you and Harry left last night's party together and I wanted to make sure that the rumors were true due to the fact that I had to leave the party early, and missed out on the sight of you leaving with 'a bartender'." Dumbledore said.

"Yes, they're true. Care to explain why you had the Order spying on me?"

"When you date a Malfoy, you can hardly expect anything less. I really must hand it to you though; you did an excellent job of disguising yourself. You choose a completely different name than your original one, and managed to build an empire, so to speak, in six years. You even faked the papers right. I have two questions though. The first one is why did you do it?"

"Because I would have never made it in the world if I kept my name. I was unpopular in all of the houses. I am by now a legend at Hogwarts, and my name scares little kids who are told stories by other people. People would never allow me to have a business if they knew who I was. Therefore, I had to change my name and later my appearance. Plus, my family disowned me after they got humiliated by me. But you already knew that Dumbledore."

"I had a theory, and you proved it true. Secondly, why did your fake papers say that you were in Gryffindor?"

"Simple. People will trust you if you're in Gryffindor because the people in Gryffindor are supposed to be the good guys. The one who won't stand for any injustice. Plus, I was actually friends with enough people who were actually in Gryffindor to have them help my disguise. I'm guessing that they told you who I really was?"

"Actually no, I only found out who you were when you sent that invitation to Hermione."

"How is she doing by the way?" Blaise asked.

"She's doing fine. Her and Ron are dating, and he's going to pop the question soon. We have a bet going on it." Dumbledore stated proudly.

"How much to join in?"

"One galleon. The only free spot is next Sunday morning." Dumbledore said as he pulled out a book and a small bag that appeared to be empty.

"I'll take it."

"Okay. The pot right now is 2,456 galleons, and nearly everybody is in on it."

"Good god, how long has this been going on?"Blaise asked shocked.

"For about four years."

"You wanted to see me Rachel?" Draco Malfoy sneered.

"Yes. It was good to see you again Dumbledore. I'll see you later." Blaise said shaking Dumbledore's hand.

"Please sit down Draco." Blaise said as she pointed to the seat in front of her while she sat behind her desk.

"You know, by this time tomorrow, our roles will be reversed. Tell me, how does it feel to know that I'm screwing you over and you can't do anything about it?" Malfoy smirked.

"I don't know, you tell me?" Blaise smirked.

"What are you going on about?"

"Oh, just the fact that you're fired, that's all."

"Ha, if you fire me, then I'll bring a lawsuit against you. And we both know that the news hates you." Malfoy smirked.

"Oh yes, the news does hate me, that is true. However, they don't exactly love you either." Blaise smirked as a loud knocking was heard on the door.

Blaise went around her desk and towards her office door to unlock it.

"Who's that? Your little bartender from last night?" Malfoy laughed.

"This coming from the guy who slept with one of my former friends and got her pregnant."

"What can I say, she actually puts out."

"Malfoy, I'm surprised at you. Letting your mouth run while a camera and microphone are in hearing distance. My, my how you've changed. Whatever happened to the polite young gentleman from last night?" Blaise smiled as she opened her office door to a crowd of reporters who were busy clicking away their cameras and holding out their microphones. "Ladies and gentlemen, I have an announcement to make!" Blaise said loudly at the crowd. All of the people hushed. "I would like to announce the fact that Mister Draco Malfoy is officially fired from this company and will not be working here ever again because he has been stealing money from this company. He will however be paying all of that money back with five percent interest. For those of you who would like a photo copy of my proof, they are lying on the table to your right. No if you will please excuse me, I have another meeting to get to."

"Miss Rachel Brooks, when did you find out this information?"

"Are you really firing him because he reportedly stole money, or is it personal?"
