It's Love That Blinds Him
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 198

In the middle of the discussion, the waltz prelude gradually sounded, drowning out the discussions of the crowd. Lucia and Tandy arrived on the dance floor first and began the opening dance. As they danced, others joined them and started dancing. They danced with the music, as if nothing had happened.

Looking at the confident and calm Lucia, there was appreciation in Tandy’s eyes, but he couldn’t help asking with concern. “Lucia, you’re calmer than I thought. But are you ready for the next storm?”

“I’m Lucia, right?” » Lucie replied with a smile.

Tandy nodded slightly. The two moved gracefully across the dance floor. And this scene fell into Malcolm’s eyes. He didn’t stop smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile. The journalists who were about to ask him questions hid in such a cold atmosphere. On the other hand, Enoch was still watching the two people on the dance floor in silence. Even Bob lost his usual calm when he saw Lucia.

“Malcolm…” Enoch called to the motionless Malcolm after a long silence.

“She can only belong to me.” Although Malcolm spoke lightly, the firmness of his tone was clearly felt by those around him.

When the music stopped, people walked down the dance floor and started talking politely to each other, finding new interests and points of cooperation in such an occasion. More and more people gathered around Lucia, but everyone was smart enough not to mention the past, as if it had been erased. Lucia spoke with the people who came to see her one after the other, although she didn’t want to. When she showed her impatience, Tandy appeared next to her.

“Ms. Lucia has just arrived in China. She hasn’t fully adjusted to the time difference yet. If you have any questions, you can ask her secretary, Johnny.” On cue, Tandy saved Lucia and motioned for Johnny to come forward.

Everyone was smart enough to shift their attention from Lucia to Johnny. At this time, Malcolm walked towards Lucia step by step. Enoch wanted to say something, but swallowed what he wanted to say after some thought. He quietly retreated to the side, observing the interaction between Malcolm and Lucia. It has never been easy for an outsider to interfere in Malcolm and Lucia’s relationship.

When Malcolm stood in front of Lucia, all the discussion around them stopped in an instant. Everyone looked at the two of them. Seeing Malcolm’s appearance, Tandy clenched her fists slightly, hatred burning throughout her body. However, Malcolm didn’t look at Tandy. He only gave her a slight glance at most.

Lucia’s calm heart beat faster all of a sudden. The strange atmosphere in front of her made her stunned for a while. Soon she came to her senses. She gave Tandy a hint with her eyes silently. Tandy nodded and stepped back to the side. At that moment, it was as if only Lucia and Malcolm were left in space.

“Mrs. Lucia, may I have the honor of asking you to dance?” Malcolm’s pleasant, magnetic voice was heard. With a provocative smile at the corners of his mouth, he looked directly into Lucia’s eyes.

There seemed to be dead silence. Everyone was waiting for Lucia’s reaction. Malcolm kept the gentleman’s gesture of invitation. But the provocative smile never disappeared. Lucia bravely looked into his eyes, trying to discover something from his eyes.

“Of course, it’s my honor to dance with Mr. Evans.” After a long time, Lucia opened her mouth and stretched out her hand.

The next second, Lucia was held in Malcolm’s arms. As if everything was arranged in advance, tango music resonated in the room. With his large palm around Lucia’s waist, he held her tightly. With the dynamic melody, they moved with rhythmic dance steps, as if they were a perfect pair of dance partners. However, their eyes never met again in the air.

They only saw provocative smiles deep in each other’s eyes. The others also slipped onto the dance floor to enjoy the pleasure brought by tango. In this space, only Lucia’s beautiful figure, slender legs and delicate face gave the deepest visual stimulation. When the music ended, Malcolm changed his step and took Lucia in his arms.

Before Lucia and the others could react, he leaned down and kissed Lucia on her lips, which were slightly open from surprise. He held Lucia’s waist with one hand and deepened the k**s with the other hand on Lucia’s neck. He felt the familiar scent and the real, warm touch. From now on, romantic and light music had replaced tango music. The other people on the dance floor had disappeared, leaving only Malcolm and Lucia hugging and kissing.

Journalists were sensitive to gossip. They quickly took photos. It seemed Lucia couldn’t resist Malcolm’s flirting. She unconsciously put her hands around his neck and joined in the k**s. When she came to her senses, she quickly pushed him away. Her suppressed anger and displeasure with herself was hidden in her eyes.

At that moment, Malcolm didn’t seem to care at all. He allowed Lucia to let go of him, one hand in his pocket and the other still holding Lucia. He looked at Lucia in front of him, with a slight smile on his face. He quietly waited for Lucia’s next words.

“Sir. Evans, do you always treat your dance partner like that?” Lucia said disdainfully.

She knew he knew her identity when he looked into her eyes. Lucia couldn’t help but guess in her heart that perhaps when they were in Alexandra, Malcolm had already suspected her identity. She felt that her performance was perfect. But in Malcolm’s eyes, she was like a clown, exposing all her secrets to him, so he could analyze her.

“Of course not. I only treat my feral cat like that.” The smile on Malcolm’s face did not fade, but he also made a declaration of possession.

Lucia’s eyes were filled with anger. After staring at him for a moment, she shook off the hand that was holding his and indifferently walked towards a quiet corner of the corridor. Malcolm didn’t pursue her. He put his hands in his pockets and watched Lucia leave. After a long time, he turned around and walked back to his original position.

The passionate embrace and k**s on the dance floor just now was seen by everyone in the room. The whispered discussion was heard again. Now they were almost sure of their speculations. Because of the identities of Lucia and Malcolm, no one dared to say this obvious fact easily.

Yes, it was Lucie. She came back.

“Deputy General Manager, it’s really Ms. Evans…” Bob asked in surprise after coming back to his senses a long time later.

“Obviously not.” Enoch no longer doubted Lucia’s identity.

Across the hall, Lucia quietly took the glass Tandy handed her and took a big sip to calm herself down. Then she placed the empty glass on the table. Tandy looked at Lucia in silence. The two remained silent.

Journalists headed towards Lucia. When Tandy was about to stop them, Lucia motioned for her to move quietly to the side. The journalists surrounded Lucia. Lucia looked at the reporters in front of her. Some of them looked familiar, and some were new journalists. They had the same confusions on their faces. Soon, Lucia smiled, with mockery and calm in her eyes, quietly waiting for their questions.

“Ms. Fredrickson, you look like Lucia, the wife of the CEO of the Evans Group, and even have the same name. Are you related to her?”

Journalists kept silent for a long time. At the risk of being blacklisted, one of them still asked the question to which everyone present wanted to know the answer. When he was ready to face whatever storm might come next, Lucia smiled, which was lovely.

She slowly got up and walked towards the reporter who asked the question step by step. The reporter looked at Lucia in front of him in a daze for a while. Soon she stood in front of the reporter and stared at him for a long time. Although she wore a smile, it was a quizzical and sarcastic smile, which scared the reporter a little.

“What do you think we have to do with each other?” Lucia laughed, looked at the reporter indifferently, and asked.

“Eh…” The reporter was at a loss and looked at Lucia blankly.

Everyone was silent. Tandy also looked at Lucia and didn’t know what she wanted to do. On the other side, Malcolm was still looking at Lucia, quietly waiting for her response.

‘Wildcat, will you announce it to the whole world?’ A slight smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. His eyes met Lucia’s slightly provocative ones. Then, Lucia said slowly word by word, facing the curious looks around her.

“Yes. I’m Lucia,” Lucia said firmly and calmly, admitting her identity to everyone.

The crowd burst into uproar. Everyone was shocked. They unconsciously looked between Malcolm and Lucia. When their original guess was verified at this moment, they felt incredible. Someone who had died in everyone’s memory suddenly came back to life. And she appeared proudly in front of everyone. The news was too shocking.

The enchanting figure in red was extraordinarily charming under the interweaving of light and shadow. Holding a glass of red wine, Lucia shook it. The red wine slid down his throat. Then, Lucia raised a glass to the entire audience.

Yes, it was Lucia. She had come back.
