It's Love That Blinds Him
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 109

“What? Are you going to walk me home alone?” Lucia asked in confusion, seeing Lowell climb into the driver’s seat.

She knew that the curiosity of these journalists was not yet satisfied. They watched her closely. It was only because of the words she said to them that day that they did not dare to harass her. Plus, Tandy’s presence must have confused them a little. But Lucia knew that they were still very attentive to her. Sure enough, when she glanced around, she saw people here and there taking photos with cameras. The moment they noticed her looking at them, they quickly turned their cameras around and pretended like they were just taking photos of the busy street.

“I care about you. Should I care about other people’s opinions?” Lowell asked casually, glancing at Lucia.

“Lowell…I really don’t deserve your attention,” Lucia said helplessly.

“Lucia, let’s stop talking about this. You need to rest well,” Lowell said, giving her a meaningful look.

It was obvious to him that Lucia’s mind was torn in two and her heart had long since become unstable. He knew well that she he would talk about their relationship, she would dodge and back away. Glancing sideways at the woman in the passenger seat, he wondered, “Do you still love her?” But soon he turned his attention back to the road at follow.

The car soon stopped in front of the house where Lucia lived. Instead of getting out of the car, Lucia turned to Lowell with a hesitant look. Seeing this, Lowell frowned in confusion. “

What do not go? Do you have something to tell me?” Lowell asked.

“Would you like to come home?” Lucie asked.

“It would be my honor. Lowell’s tone was unusually serious.

Lucia’s eyes lingered on him a little more before opening the door and getting out of the car. Lowell also got out and followed her. After stopping for a moment, he gently slipped his arm around her waist. The sudden contact made Lucia shiver, but she forced herself to calm down. Steadying her hand, she typed in the password and swiped the card to open the door. The two of them entered the room together. Once inside,

Lucia gently stepped aside of Lowell and went to pour them each a glass of water. Lowell sat casually on the couch. Handing him a glass of water, Lucia said apologetically, “I don’t have any good tea here, so I can only offer you some water.

“Do you like him?” An unreadable emotion flashed through Lowell’s eyes.

“What? No…I’m just curious.” Lucia frowned, wondering why he had returned the question to her.

“He has women, but he doesn’t have a girlfriend,” Lowell finally replied, studying Lucia’s face carefully.

“Oh…” Lucia was stunned to hear this.

“Did I guess wrong?” Or is Tandy bisexual? Or does he only have special feelings for Lowell? The way he looks at Lowell makes it clear that he has feelings for him. But what about Lowell? Lucia’s eyes moved curiously to Lowell’s face, but she quickly looked away.

A hint of cunning flashed in Lowell’s eyes. He lowered his head and took a sip of water before placing the glass on the table. The two chatted for a while. After glancing at his watch, Lowell got up and said goodbye to Lucia. Lucia followed him to the door.

“Drive carefully,” she said.

Lowell was silent for a moment, but his gaze lingered on her face. As she was caught off guard, he leaned down and kissed her lips. But when he had an inkling that she was trying to get away, he let go of her. There was a slight trace of embarrassment on Lucia’s face.

“Lucia, give me an answer. For the first time, Lowell, who had never forced Lucia to give him an answer, said it out of the blue.

“I…” Lucia started, but she didn’t know how to continue.

Lowell was always kind to her and never forced her to say anything she didn’t want to. Lucia loved being treated with such care. The selfishness and greed of human nature were particularly evident in this situation. Lucia wanted to obtain tenderness from the one she loved, but she could not receive it from him. Therefore, she enjoyed the warmth and honesty she desired in the arms of another man. But when he asked her to reciprocate, she discovered she didn’t have as much love to spare.

“Lucia, I won’t force you. But no matter what happens, remember that I truly love you and care about you,” Lowell said simply, quickly hiding the trace of sadness on his face.

“Lowell…” Lucia was moved by his words, but she couldn’t make such a promise easily.

“Take a good rest. I’ll go back first.” Without insisting that Lucia give him an answer, Lowell turned and left the house.

The light in Lucia’s eyes faded as she watched Lowell walk away. She only returned to the house when the car disappeared out of sight. Then she lay down on the bed and sighed silently. “Why is it so difficult to make a choice? Ugh!’

she wondered irritably.

In the surveillance room of S City, the same group of people were sitting in the room. The atmosphere was tense. Seeing the photos taken by the people following Lucia, everyone was unusually silent. Enoch’s mouth twitched as he looked at the man in the photos. He glanced at Malcolm and quickly looked away.

“It turns out our guess was right. He really was that guy. And the worst part is that Lucia dares to deceive Malcolm so openly, he thought, swallowing hard.

Studying the photos carefully, he asked, “What do you think his motive is?”

He created some small conflicts in the Middle East, but did nothing here in S City. He just…” He bit back the rest of his words when he realized what he was saying and looked at Malcolm nervously.

The clear, high quality photos were presented in front of Malcolm. The man held out his hand to Lucia; the two entered a restaurant together and then went shopping. Lucia even took the initiative to take a photo with him. There was not a trace of discomfort or reluctance on his face, but a smile from the bottom of his heart. As Malcolm looked at the photos one by one, his eyes grew colder and darker. The pain of being betrayed little by little penetrated his skin. It was as if his dust-laden memories were constantly being dug up, displaying his ugly scars for all to see.

“Wildcat, how dare you provoke me again and again and announce your betrayal so explicitly? »

Thinking of this, Malcolm slowly crumpled the photo in his hand. For a moment, the only noise in the room was the sound of photos clashing. Kaleb stood nearby in silence, and even Enoch didn’t dare say a word. The rest of the people immersed themselves in their own affairs without even raising their heads.

It was as if a blanket of pressure had been thrown over the room, making them all feel suffocated.

“You put a lot of effort into attacking my business in Europe and America, which made me think someone was trying to destroy our market in the Middle East. After successfully luring me to the Middle East, you created conflicts there that were enough to divert my attention. But at the same time, you arrived in S City, making people believe that you hadn’t moved anything at all.

You deliberately delayed my trip to the Middle East for a long time. None of us could guess your goal until now. Who would have thought you would appear in Lucia’s world? It turns out your only goal was to make history repeat itself again. Are you going to officially declare war on me?

Malcolm’s eyes landed on the man in the photo, who seemed to be smirking back at him. “Is the ridicule hidden in your smile a message you’re sending me? Are you making fun of me for not achieving your goal until now? You even used a mercenary to create a distraction.

As a former mercenary yourself, I’m sure you would have realized you were being harassed. But you just pretended not to know and let yourself be photographed. Are you telling me you already know?’

“Malcolm, who the hell is he?” Enoch finally asked, breaking the thick silence.

“Don’t remove the people following her. Keep watching,” Malcolm ordered, ignoring his brother’s question.

“But… is there a point? This man obviously knows they are being followed. The smile on his face is too provocative,” Enoch said irritably.

“It’s obvious he’s smiling like that on purpose to make fun of us for being too weak. It’s either that or he’s trying to say something. Suddenly, a thought popped into Enoch’s mind. He looked up at Malcolm, wanting to see the affirmation in his eyes, but Malcolm had no expression on his face. “Malcolm

, will Lucia be in danger? Enoch asked nervously.

“It depends how far she can betray me.” Malcolm’s voice was as cold as the underworld.

Enoch didn’t quite understand what was going on in the mind of Malcolm. In the past, Malcolm would kill anyone who betrayed him as soon as possible. But he hadn’t done anything to Lucia, which meant that she must have a special place in his heart. “Does he like it?” Enoch wondered, stunned.

Malcolm, for his part, continued to look at the photos on the table in silence without saying a word.

“Malcolm…” Enoch shouted, hesitating to put the question on the tip of his tongue.

“Lucia is the only woman I’ve liked in so many years,” Malcolm said lightly, answering Enoch’s unasked question.

Enoch was silent. Leaving aside their family’s secret, it was the first time he saw his brother take such good care of a woman. Even after such a betrayal, he hadn’t hurt her. Most of the time,

When Malcolm said these words just now, Enoch noticed a trace of cruelty in his expression. Enoch could not understand what Malcolm intended to do.

The war between this man and Malcolm was one that had gone on for far too long. Sometimes their fight was just a simple provocation, while other times they could be quite cruel. However, the two seemed to enjoy this game very much. Even if an important fortress was destroyed, there would be no trace of anger or resentment in Malcolm’s eyes.

He would act as if the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars was an insignificant thing.

The more Enoch thought about it, the more curious he became about who this man was. He had often asked Malcolm when their feud had started, but Malcolm had never given him a direct answer.

Curiosity sometimes made people anxious.
