Malfoys do not have emotions. They are above them.
It is a little known fact.
Everyone knows (or thinks they know) that they're incapable of all emotions and feelings that are good. Everyone knows (or thinks they know) that they are capable of all emotions and feelings that are bad.

Except, of course, she wouldn't.
She's a smart person after all.
