Best Answer

She had no choice. Her father had left all his wealth and possessions to the wicked stepmother, which she lavished on her own children. While a meager existence, as a young child Cinderella probably wouldn't have made it on her own, so she stayed in her stepmother's house and did what they asked, as not to get punished.

Also, Cinderella's mother made her promise on her deathbed to be pious and sweet. Disobeying her stepfamily would be disobeying her true family.

What is Cinderella story?

Cinderella's story... Cinderella lived a very happy life with her father ( no mother in the picture) until her father married a lady ( her step mother) who had 2 daughters around the same age as Cinderella. Cinderella's father died and she lived in her father's house with her evil step mother and 2 ugly step sisters.They treat Cinderella as a slave basically and she did everything for them. One day there was an announcement that there was to be a ball in the palace and for every girl in the kingdom to attend for the prince to find a wife. The step mother and step sisters obviously did not want Cinderella to attend so they made it very difficult for her, by giving her impossible tasks to complete. After being humiliated by her evil stepsisters, Cinderella met her fairy godmother who helped her, made her a beautiful dress with glass slippers, turned the mice into horses, a pumpkin into a carriage and so on. Cinderella attended the ball and danced all night with the Prince. Cinderella's fairy god mother told her to leave before midnight as the spell would wear off so as midnight struck Cinderella ran and lost one of her slippers on the stairs. The Prince took the glass slipper in search for Cinderella, trying it on every girl's foot in the kingdom. Cinderella had been locked in her room by her evil step mother but with the help of her mouse friends she managed to get out of her room and get down to try the slipper on. One of the ugly sisters smashed it so that she could not try it on but Cinderella had the other slipper and was able to prove she was the girl the prince danced with. Cinderella and the Prince married and lived happily ever after!


How do you think Lucius Malfoy would treat his daughter if he had one?

I think he'd treat a daughter well, but that depends on her personality. If she wasn't evil like him, or if she did stuff against his will, etc he probably would treat her indifferently or even badly. Or if she was weak or needy. He treats Narcissa well so its not like he has anything against females as a whole.
