It's Love That Blinds Him
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 131

After returning from Italy, Lucia looked very lazy. Every day it seemed like she never got enough sleep. The familiar biological clock could always wake Lucia early, but soon after she would unusually fall asleep again. She was sleeping on her favorite lounge chair in the study by the French window. The sun shone on her body, making her feel warm. Sometimes Lucia felt like if no one woke her up, she could sleep peacefully for a whole day.

Every time she picked up a book, she discovered that she had only read a few pages after all. For so many days, she hadn’t even finished reading a single book. She looked at the book and found that she seemed to have stayed on the current page for a long time. Come to think of it, Lucia couldn’t even remember what she had already read.

His life was really too idle. She tried to struggle with her eyelids which were about to close. Eyes wide open, Lucia struggled to get up from the tempting deck chair. She shook her dizzy head, trying to calm herself.

“Lucia, have dessert…” Catherine’s clear voice came.

Seeing Lucia, who had gotten up, Catherine seemed a little surprised. But soon, his face was covered in a big smile. It was the first time that Lucia took the initiative to leave the lounge chair since she moved into the villa. She wanted to take a walk. Was this a good start?

“Catherine…If I lay here lazily every day and eat so much food, I will become a pig.” Perhaps it was because Catherine’s smile affected Lucia that she was suddenly in the mood to tease.

“What are you talking about? You are so skinny that you are going to be blown away by the wind. Do you want to eat here?” Kathryn looked at Lucia with a smile in her eyes and asked happily.

“No, I can’t eat here, or I’ll sleep again. Let’s go to the living room downstairs,” Lucia said lightly. “

Okay, I’ll get ready. See you later in the living room.” After saying that, Kathryn happily ran away.

Lucia looked at the energetic Catherine. Even though Kathryn couldn’t get any response from Lowell and Lucia was sandwiched between them, this which was embarrassing, Kathryn showed no displeasure. There was only a hint of loneliness in her. Lucia felt sorry for such a girl. How could a girl her age behave like this? Lucia felt sorry for herself. remembered what happened when she was seventeen. If she were Catherine, she might not be as fearless as Catherine.

She slowly walked out of the office, followed the spiral staircase, and headed toward the living room. The servants in the villa were also surprised to see Lucia suddenly come down, but soon they calmed down and quietly did their own work. Lucia was sitting casually on the sofa in the living room, and many books were scattered on the tea table.

Lucia picked up a book and read it. Then she smiled weakly. Kathryn always loved reading books about divination and ghosts so much. When she first saw Kathryn’s books, Lucia felt a little strange, but now she has become calm. Even the Evans family was linked to curses or legends, which Lucia thought was a joke. So Catherine’s books weren’t strange at all.

The Evans family. Lucia’s eyes, which had regained a smile, darkened again at the thought of the Evans family. Malcolm’s cruel and heartless face flashed through his mind. She closed her eyes and pushed the image from her memory. Inexplicably, Lowell’s gentle face covered the painful memory and gradually became clear.

With a silent sigh, Lucia stood up silently, just in time to greet Catherine’s small figure walking over with a plate. Glancing at Lucia, Kathryn frowned. Lucia was fine just now, but why had she suddenly become dull and gloomy again?

“Lucie, what’s wrong?” » Kathryn put the plate down and asked worriedly.

“Nothing.” Lucia smiled slightly and sat back down with Catherine.

Under Catherine’s gaze, Lucia took the dessert out of the plate and ate it slowly. She leafed through a book that Catherine had placed on the tea table with her free hand. She chose an illustrated book to kill time.

This box again? Lucia put down the dessert and frowned. She brought the illustrated book closer to her and looked closely at a photo. Lucia had met Sophia once before going to Nepal. At that point, she gave Sophia her wooden box, along with the bracelet inside. Before giving it to Sophia, she looked at it carefully. Apart from the exquisite carvings, she didn’t think there was anything special.

Compared to the previous one, which looked a little yellow, the photos in the current illustrated book were very sharp. Even the texture of the box was clearly visible. Maybe the designs weren’t quite the same, but Lucia was sure her box was similar to the one in the picture book.

” Lucy ? » Kathryn looked at Lucia and asked in confusion.

Hadn’t she read the picture book before? It was just a new one. Catherine suddenly opened her eyes wide. She remembered Lucia telling her she had a similar box and hadn’t had a chance to show it to her yet.

“Didn’t you say last time that you had a similar box?” Where is the box now?” Kathryn suddenly asked Lucia quickly, with a trace of expectation in her eyes.

“It’s not with me. It was taken away by a friend,” Lucia explained.

Kathryn looked down in disappointment. Lucia touched Catherine’s hair. The girl always expressed her thoughts so clearly without hiding anything.

“What did you say about the box last time?” Lucia tried to remember what Catherine had said, but she didn’t remember it at all. She had a really bad memory lately. “No… There was

only two boxes. I’ve never seen a real one,” Kathryn scratched her head and quickly explained.

“Can I borrow this book for a while?” » Lucia raised the illustrated book in her hands and asked Catherine’s opinion.

“No problem,” Catherine agreed eagerly.

Lucia put away the illustrated book and carefully ate the dessert. Kathryn chatted with Lucia casually. Lucia kept the picture book in mind and seemed a little distracted. While eating the dessert, Lucia felt a little nauseous. She ate too much sugary food, which made her uncomfortable.

A servant looked at the empty plate and quickly put it away. Lucia waved the picture book in her hand, indicating that she was going up the stairs. Catherine nodded and smiled. Lucia took the illustrated book, turned around and returned to the office.

Looking at the box of the illustrated book for a long time, Lucia took out her phone and called Sophia. After a long time, the phone was connected, and Sophia’s familiar voice came from the other end.

“Lucia, how have you been recently?” My brother told me…” It seemed that Sophia was silent for a long time before speaking.

“I’m fine. I want to ask you something.” Lucia didn’t want to talk about her current situation, so she changed the subject.

“Go ahead…” Even though Sophia felt a little confused, she still listened to Lucia.

“Take some medication. photos of the box details I gave you and send them to me. Maybe I’ll find out something.” Lucia briefly told Sophia what had happened.

On the other end of the line, Sophia was silent for a long moment before saying okay and asking Lucia to wait a moment. Lucie hung up the phone. Shortly after, Lucia received a reminder of a new email. She turned on her laptop and received the email.

After downloading the photos one by one, Lucia silently looked at the details of the box in the photos, then compared them with the illustrated book she had borrowed from Catherine, lost in thought. The photos Sophia sent were similar to Kathryn’s picture book. Lucia could tell that both boxes were made by the same person, but they were definitely not the same thing.

Suddenly, Lucia fixed her eyes on the bottom of the box in a close-up photo. It was the first time she looked closely at the bottom of the box. The two totems at the bottom of the two boxes were completely identical. What did the totem mean? Did Kathryn have anything to do with her? Suddenly a dialog box about MSN appeared. It was Sophie.

“Did you find anything?” »

“The totems at the bottom are the same. The picture book was borrowed from a girl here. But she has never seen this box before. She didn’t tell me what the totem meant.”

“I have no idea about the box. You can also send me the copies of the picture book. Maybe I can find out something. Ask the girl the meaning of the totem.”

“Got it.”

Sophia’s profile picture soon darkens. Lucia glanced at the grayed out profile picture and shut down the laptop. She picked up the picture book and went downstairs to ask Kathryn about the totem, but she unexpectedly couldn’t find it. However, Lowell, who never showed up at that time, had returned and was sitting on the couch making tea.

He raised his head and looked at Lucia, with slight joy in his eyes. Lucia was willing to take the initiative to leave the study, which was a good start for him. He wanted to say something, but Lucia spoke first.

“Isn’t that right Catherine?” » Lucia asked after looking around again.

“Miss Garcia, Miss Catherine just left. It seemed like she had something urgent to attend to,” the butler quickly answered Lucia’s question.

Lucia nodded without saying anything. She placed the illustrated book on the tea table in the living room. Looking at the picture book that Lucia had put down, Lowell frowned and looked at Lucia in confusion.

“Are you curious about this?” Lowell asked Lucia indifferently.

“There’s a coincidence!”

Lowell stopped asking. The two people who suddenly fell silent seemed a little uncomfortable. Lucia wanted to say something, but she didn’t. She could only keep her position strangely. Lowell sighed helplessly. He got up from the couch and slowly walked towards Lucia. Lucia stood still and watched him walk towards her step by step.

“Lucie, that’s good. Don’t lock yourself in the office. Give yourself more choices. I like the bright smile on your face,” Lowell said softly, caressing Lucia’s face.

Lucia didn’t answer, but a slight smile appeared on her face. The apparent fake smile came from his heart. Lowell hugged Lucia affectionately and let her lean gently against his chest. It was the first time since her birthday that Lucia hadn’t struggled. She just leaned against him, feeling his heartbeat.

When a man could drop everything to hold her in his arms, she was visibly moved.
