I really like that option as well. Rereading about Hermione’s demeanor at the breakfast table it does come across to me more as playing it cool then resignation at an impending arrest.
Additionally, to meta-speculate a bit. I think it is more likely that Eliezer would pretend to destroy the relationship between Draco and Hermione that he has been carefully nudging together for many many chapters then to actually destroy the relationship.

Draco definitely won’t be pleased by these accusations. I wonder if he’s going to have to reveal himself as a non-racist before this arch is up.
