It's Love That Blinds Him -
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 129
During her trip to Rome, Lucia spent most of her time wandering aimlessly. Zack showed his best patience while walking with Lucia. The next day at noon they finished the last meal in Rome and returned together to Milan by Eurostar.
During those two days, Lowell did not call Lucia. When Lucia came out of Milan Central Station, she saw Lowell standing at the exit. Zack looked at Lucia, but Lucia said nothing. They walked toward Lowell indifferently.
“Thank you,” Lowell said to Zack.
Zack raised his eyebrows and looked at Lowell. There was a lot of meaning in Lowell’s words. Lucia had been dull and numb, but after the trip to Rome she showed many weak smiles. Under the baptism of sunlight, his pale face became a little red. At least such Lucia would not make him as worried and even afraid as before. He had been afraid that when the wind blew, Lucia would disappear with the wind.
Zack thought that this man was indeed a lot cuter than Malcolm sometimes. He always expressed his thoughts and possessiveness directly to Lucia. He was different from Malcolm, who was dark, wanted to love Lucia but was hesitant. No wonder his wife left him.
“I’m making you whole again. Lucia, I have other things to take care of. If you have time, come to Britain to play with me,” Zack said cautiously to Lucia.
“All right.” Lucy nodded.
Zack looked back at Lucia and Lowell before turning and leaving. Soon he disappeared from around the corner. Lucia didn’t leave with Lowell until Zack was out of sight. Lowell carefully took Lucia’s hand and felt a slight resistance in his heart, but she didn’t shake his hand. After a long time, Lowell felt that Lucia had relaxed. The two left the station together. The driver had already driven the car and was waiting by the side of the road.
In the huge meeting room of the Evans Group subsidiary in Milan, people of different skin colors were holding a video conference. Still sitting in a fixed position, Malcolm played with his phone with one hand and looked around at everyone present indifferently. And the meeting was still hosted by Enoch.
“CEO, Deputy CEO, Douglas sent someone to tell us that he has decided to sell us the mineral vein. However, he asked the CEO to sign the contract in person. The contract would be sighed in his castle in Italy,” Calvin said respectfully.
He quickly placed the confirmation letter he had just received this morning in front of Malcolm. Douglas responded much more quickly than Malcolm had expected. Although Douglas made it clear to the party that day that he had made his choice, everyone felt that this strange old man would only announce the result when everyone’s patience was exhausted. After all, mining was an industry that many people wanted to get involved in, which was full of endless temptation of money.
“Where and when?” Enoch asked with a frown.
“He replied that once the CEO decided the time, we could tell him and he could cooperate at any time. He would invite the CEO and deputy CEO to dinner.” Calvin voiced Douglas’ request.
“What a strange old man… He always asks others to cooperate with him. But this time, why can he cooperate with others?” There was a clear incomprehension in Enoch’s words.
“Tonight,” Malcolm said coldly.
“Yes, I see,” Calvin quickly noted the time and respectfully agreed.
After confirming the time of signing the contract, the rest of the people discussed the following issues regarding mining. The first group of people sent to South Africa also returned reliable news one after another. Mining could be carried out gradually after signing the contract, which meant that the Evans Group would enter a new field and its activities would be expanded indefinitely. At that time, the power of the Evans family would truly seep into every corner.
“Malcolm…Will Lowell do anything now that he has failed to obtain the mineral vein? If it weren’t for the mineral vein, he would not have appeared in Italy.” After everyone left, Enoch voiced his own concerns.
“Take things as they come. Let’s wait and see. Italy is not our territory and Spain is its stronghold. We will not necessarily benefit from a head-on confrontation,” Malcolm analyzed calmly.
“What if he did something?” » The worry in Enoch’s eyes could not be removed.
“No matter how powerful the enemy is, he has his weakness. It’s been so long, but you are still so impatient,” Malcolm glanced at Enoch and said lightly. “Malcolm…You mean
. .. Lucy?” The more Enoch thought about it, the more confused he became.
When they were in Rome, he could easily tell in Malcolm’s eyes that he loved Lucia and didn’t want to leave her. But at that moment, Malcolm Calmly said that Lucia was Lowell’s weakness. What the hell did Malcolm want to do? After saying that, Malcolm got up and left the meeting room.
“Be ready. Let’s meet up with Douglas tonight.”
In a remote castle in Milan, Italy, Douglas’s whims were visible everywhere. The castle’s flowers and plants had never been carefully tended. Douglas always allowed them to grow freely with their characteristic original, and he only occasionally let the gardener trim the branches and leaves. However, the flowers and plants did not look ugly.
Malcolm’s car stopped at the castle gate .The butler greeted him respectfully and gave a standard salute. He immediately signaled the security guards to open the castle gate, and he himself got into a guide car in the front, guiding Malcolm’s car to parked in the parking lot.
Wearing a black shirt and an iron-gray suit, Malcolm got out of the car first. The butler stood respectfully aside, bowed and turned to lead the way. The other people discreetly followed Malcolm and entered the castle.
The butler led them dutifully into the hall. He respectfully signaled other people to wait in place, and only let Malcolm and Calvin, who was responsible for purchasing the mineral vein, go upstairs. With Malcolm’s hint, everyone was waiting in the lobby. He continued to follow the butler to Douglas’ office. After receiving permission, Malcolm entered the study and looked at Douglas closely for the first time.
“I’ve heard a lot about you, Mr. Evans.” Douglas spoke first, which surprised Malcolm.
“Hello Mr. Douglas,” Malcolm said indifferently, holding out his hand.
The two hands clasped in the air and soon let go. The two men sat at opposite ends of the table in the office. Calvin quickly put the contracts in front of Douglas. Unexpectedly, Douglas signed his name and stamped the contracts without even looking at them.
Calvin’s face twitched slightly… This old man was really inconceivable. At least he had to read the contracts carefully. N “Wasn’t he afraid of being trapped? He could sell not only the mineral vein, but also his entire property. After signing the contracts, Douglas pushed the contracts back to Malcolm. He saw Calvin’s trembling face and said bursts out laughing.
“I heard that the Evans Group is frank. At least the content we agreed on would not be easily changed. How can you not trust Mr. Evans? In addition to fate, trust is also necessary in business. How can we cooperate without trust?” Douglas easily expressed the doubts in Calvin’s eyes.
Calvin was a little embarrassed. Douglas really didn’t give him any room. He glanced shy eye at Malcolm. On the other hand, Malcolm signed his name expressionlessly, gestured to Calvin to seal, and pushed one of the contracts back to Douglas. “Now the ownership of the mineral vein is officially transferred to
the Evans group. I will not intervene in any of the following mining affairs and I will not be responsible for any problems that may arise in the mining process. So, I hope you know it very well. I believe in the strength of the group Evans,” Douglas said matter-of-factly.
“Wish us pleasant cooperation,” Malcolm finally said lightly.
“Please…Let’s go to dinner tonight.” After saying this, Douglas got up first and went downstairs.
After glancing at Douglas, Malcolm got up and walked out of the office with him. The downstairs dining room was already ready to welcome guests. Under the leadership of the servants, the people waiting in the hall also entered the dining room. The meal took place in a harmonious atmosphere.
After dinner, Douglas personally escorted Malcolm and his team to the parking lot. After saying goodbye, Douglas saw their car disappear from view, then returned to the house. The light in his eyes and the questioning expression on his face were thought provoking.
Douglas picked up the phone on the table and dialed a familiar number, waiting quietly for the phone to be answered. It wasn’t until a familiar voice came from the other end of the line that Douglas opened his mouth.
“Just once. I won’t do it again. Ownership of the mineral vein had been signed and handed over to him. I won’t get involved in anything about it from now on.”
“THANKS!” the person on the other end said lightly after being silent for a long time.
“You…” Douglas wanted to say something more, but he quickly gave up. There were things that couldn’t be easily changed by a stranger like him.
“I’ll visit you when I have time.”
After saying this, the person on the other end hung up the phone, leaving beeps in Douglas’s ears. With a slight sigh,
A lot of things were out of control and he wasn’t allowed to interfere too much. God had made arrangements for everyone’s fate. Sooner or later they would see the result.
On the way back, Malcolm looked at the signed contract in his hands. After a long silence, he handed it to Enoch. Enoch learned that Douglas had signed the contract without hesitation. But this contract was drawn up by the Evans Group, and there would certainly be no content harmful to the interests of the Evans Group. But why was Malcolm silent?
“Book a flight back to S City tomorrow. Arrange everything clearly in South Africa. Don’t make any mistakes,” Malcolm ordered. After that, he closed his eyes and took a nap.
“Understood,” Enoch said.
The trip to Italy was over. Everyone got what they wanted, but a conspiracy was unfolding little by little. Perhaps the truth would only be revealed at the last moment.
