It's Love That Blinds Him -
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 144
On the way back to the villa, Lucia remained silent, while Lowell seemed relaxed after telling Lucia everything, as if he had released his depression. He looked at Lucia with clear eyes. Because Lucia had fully participated in his world, he didn’t need to feel guilty around Lucia. He didn’t want to hide anything from the one he loved.
At the same time, he also hoped that if Lucia could fall in love with him one day, she would accept everything from him. So that she can love him with all her heart.
It was a bit quiet on Enoch’s way back to the Evans family mansion. The car wasn’t going fast. He was mulling over the information he had just heard in his head. He was still lost in thought when the car arrived at the gate of the mansion. Hearing the sound of the iron door opening, he finally came to his senses. He parked the car in the parking space along the main road, got out of the car and entered the house.
Malcolm looked at Enoch for a long time, who had contradictory expressions on his face. After entering the office, Enoch looked at Malcolm. His mouth moved a little, but he closed it. He didn’t know where to start.
“What’s wrong? What do you want to ask me?” Malcolm said.
“Malcolm, his relationship with you,” Enoch asked, although he already knew the answer, after thinking for a moment.
“Twins. He was born ten minutes later than me,” Malcolm said indifferently.
Judging by the look on Enoch’s face, he guessed that Enoch must have known something. And after Enoch asked the question, Malcolm was sure of his guess, so he didn’t hide it anymore. He told Enoch about the relationship between him and Lowell.
“Why didn’t you tell me before?” asked Enoch.
“Wasn’t that written on the stone tablet?” Malcolm explained coldly.
Now Enoch understood what the words on the stone tablet meant. The twins’ secret could only be revealed to the next holder of power when the previous one died. However, their grandmother was getting older and their father had died, so Malcolm knew the secret in advance. Because Wilma was afraid of having an accident one day and couldn’t tell Malcolm this secret in person before he died.
The regret and guilt that Wilma had mentioned should be caused by the fact that she had personally ordered the servant to kill her other grandson back then. After all, she was a woman. Such helplessness and regret had haunted her all her life, like a nightmare.
“So you and him? Enoch asked cautiously.
“One or the other will lose, if the white family’s prophecy comes true. It’s only a matter of time,” Malcolm said coldly.
“But, Malcolm, you are already thirty-four years old. And your legitimate son?” Enoch asked the most urgent question at the moment.
“If I have to endure such a disaster, I cannot avoid it, no matter how hard I try. Why should I bother with this?” Malcolm’s tone seemed calm. “
Malcolm…” Enoch didn’t know what to say.
When he looked back, he found that Malcolm had returned to his usual habit before the Wilma’s death. Malcolm stared at the red dot on the computer screen alone. ‘Lucie…’ Thinking about what had happened earlier, Enoch looked at Malcolm, hesitating whether he should say what he had seen or not.
“I just saw them there together.” After thinking for a long time, he told the truth.
Suddenly, Malcolm turned his head and his eyes were full of sharpness. But there was also a trace of shock and doubt in his eyes. How could Lowell tell Lucia everything so easily? Looking into Malcolm’s eyes, Enoch nodded slightly. Today, when he Hearing Lowell say this to Lucia, he suddenly understood why Lucia would choose Lowell so easily.
Malcolm’s love was introverted and deep. He would only love someone his way. He loved the person he loved to be under his wings, rather than letting them fly high. He wasn’t good at explaining his own behaviors, and he didn’t easily talk with the one he loved about anything that had nothing to do with their relationship, even if it was related to himself.
Unfortunately, Lucia was not a canary in the cage. She was a wildcat, just like Malcolm called her. She was wild and intelligent. She had her own world, her own life and her own social circle. She would never give up everything because of a man. If she were forced to give up these things, the result would only be that Lucia would drift further and further away, and one day she would be off her original track.
On the other hand, Lowell was like someone silently supporting Lucia behind her. He would truly let her do what she wanted and give her unconditional support. He wouldn’t hide anything from Lucia, and he wouldn’t let Lucia guess his thoughts. He would always expose his heart to Lucia. He seemed very sincere.
While Malcolm was compared to Lowell, anyone would be touched by the latter, especially a woman like Lucia. However, Enoch had repeatedly seen in Lucia’s eyes that she was obsessed with Malcolm. When she looked into Lowell’s eyes, she seemed to be searching for a replacement.
Who owed who in this world?
“Did she know?” » Malcolm asked calmly.
“Yes.” Enoch nodded.
“If there is nothing else, you can come out now.” Malcolm asked him to leave.
After taking a thorough look at Malcolm, Enoch turned and left the office. Over the past few days, too much had happened, making it difficult for everyone to relax. Everyone needed to calm down and think about how to resolve the difficult situation they were facing, whether it was him and Malcolm, or Lowell and Lucia.
After Enoch left, Malcolm looked at the red dot on the screen and touched it unconsciously, as if it were Lucia. “What choice would you make in such a situation? » he asked in his heart. Maybe he was wondering, or maybe he was asking Lucia on screen.
However, no one would answer him in the end.
In the villa, Lucia sat quietly on the terrace outside the room. The cold wind blew, and she took a sip of hot milk tea from time to time. His eyes floated aimlessly into the distance.
Every word Lowell said resonated in his heart, constantly hammering into Lucia’s heart. Lowell’s frankness meant that Lucia had nowhere to hide. He dug into her heart little by little in his own way. She wanted to escape, but there was nowhere to escape. And Malcolm occupied the deepest part of Lucia’s heart. He always appeared when his heart was biased, affecting his decision.
It was a feeling of being held. She was unable to free herself. Every part of Lucia’s body was tightly entangled with Malcolm. Even in her dreams, she always dreamed of his slightly smiling face. When she woke up from her dream, Lucia could still break out in a cold sweat.
She couldn’t describe this feeling. After thinking for a long time, she came up with a word, “betrayal”, to describe her feelings at the moment. Yes, she felt she had betrayed Malcolm. She did such a thing in an unfinished marriage. This contradictory feeling made her uncomfortable. But she couldn’t reciprocate Lowell’s love for her.
Should she let go of Malcolm now? Should she let their relationship end? Just like Lowell had said, if she didn’t want to be Lucia, she could have a new identity and start all over again. But what about Catherine? What about Kathryn’s affection for Lowell? Kathryn was also a pain in Lucia’s heart that she didn’t want to touch.
The relationship involved three people. If two people were happy together, others would definitely feel sad. Lucia sighed silently.
Someone knocked at the door. Lucia knew it was Catherine. There was a tacit understanding between the two of them. If Lucia didn’t close the door, Catherine would come in after knocking three times. When Catherine came in, she saw Lucia on the balcony in the cold wind. She moved forward quickly.
“Lucie, why are you here? This is the coldest time in Strinas. You’re going to catch a cold,” Catherine said worriedly.
“Catherine…if you have to make a choice, will you choose the one who loves you or the one you love?” Lucia asked an irrelevant question.
“Um …Loving people is too tired. It will be easier to be loved.” Kathryn’s response seemed more mature and stereotypical than her age.
Was she heartbroken because of Lowell? Or did she want to give up? Lucia looked at Catherine with suspicion. question in her eyes. Kathryn looked into Lucia’s eyes with slight confusion. Tonight, Lucia looked a little different.
“Lucie, follow your heart. You are too tired. Give yourself a break. Maybe the answer will come automatically,” Kathryn said suddenly.
“Thank you, Catherine,” Lucia said softly.
Why couldn’t she, who was almost thirty years old, understand something that even an eighteen year old girl could understand? It seemed that the previous unbridled Lucia had really disappeared. She had gradually become lost in the mortal world.
Lucie has made her decision. She should follow her heart. She wouldn’t do the right thing if her heart was tired. If she continued to force herself to make a choice, she would only become more and more confused.
“Lucie… What are you thinking? You seem to be in a conflict of emotions tonight,” Kathryn finally asked.
“Nothing. I understand.
” Lucia smiled weakly. “Okay. Go to bed early. I’ll get the cup out.” Catherine stopped asking.
She picked up the cup that Lucia had placed on the small table next to her and quickly left Lucia’s room. Lucia took a deep breath and returned to her room. She adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner and fell asleep in the soft quilt. Lucia, who understood this, no longer had a heavy burden on her mind. Unexpectedly, she had the most stable sleep during this period.
In her sleep, she seemed to feel someone gently touching her hair and then kissing her on her forehead. It was very light, but full of affection. She couldn’t see the man’s face, but she heard his question clearly.
“Come with me, okay?” »
