The Poor Miss of Slytherin

【Real and fake heiresses】【Gryffindor isn't vilified】 【Poverty-stricken Slytherin × kind, earnest Gryffindor】 (Coupled with Neville Longbottom. A school-life and romance story about young people.) 【Please note: This story does not whitewash Draco, Snape, or other Slytherins. Draco bullies and abuses girls, and Snape is sarcastic and caustic. The heroine is not an unconditional saintly do-gooder either; she has her own joys and sorrows.】 Ella Black is a Slytherin student with less in her pockets than on her face. If she knew about Harry Potter's miserable past, perhaps she would clasp the Boy Who Lived's hands with tears in her eyes and say, “So I'm not the only one with such a tragic life.” Unfortunately, she's a Slytherin, and most Gryffindors want nothing to do with Slytherins. Except Neville Longbottom. At first, they were just potion-making partners in Potions class. Then they became friends who could talk to each other, and after that... No, there was no after that. Ella knows perfectly well that she can only make it to the end of fifth year before she has to drop out and get a job. She will remain a nameless minor character, while Neville has a bright future entirely unlike hers. “Merlin, I wish I could finish school and dance with him at the graduation ball.” Perhaps Merlin heard her prayer and decided to grant her this little wish. Or perhaps it was simply fate. In any case, when she meets her real family in the headmaster's office, the train of her destiny has already quietly switched onto a brighter track.
