It's Love That Blinds Him
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 200

The next day, in London, Great Britain, Zack was clearly shocked. The arrival of the Dresse group in China was also reported by London newspapers. A large photo of the CEO of Dresse Group was attached. He rubbed his eyes and grabbed the newspaper closer. The familiar features and expression…

“Oh my god…” Zack’s jaw almost dropped in shock. “How could that be possible? It’s Lucie.” Five years ago, he himself attended Lucia’s funeral. But five years later, she has now emerged alive as CEO of the Dresse Group.

“Sir. Young?” Zack’s assistant looked at the boss who looked weird and called softly.

“Hurry up. Book a flight to China for me. The sooner the better. I better leave in the afternoon,” Zack ordered his assistant without hesitation.

“Yes.” Although the assistant feels strange, he doesn’t ask more. He turned around and walked out to do what Zack had told him to do dutifully.

They had already been accustomed to the boss’s work style. Zack would fly wherever he wanted at any time. As long as they could find Zack in an emergency, there was no other problem. No matter what, he could finish the piled up work on time. As for Zack’s private life, they couldn’t interfere.

Zack quickly flipped through the newspaper in front of him. On second thought, he connected to the Chinese portals. As expected, photos of Malcolm and Lucia appeared at the same time, some of which showed them kissing intimately. Zack was getting more and more confused. His phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and quickly answered it.

“Zack… This report…” Just like Zack, there was no emotion in Sophia’s voice other than astonishment.

“Lucia admitted it herself. It must be true. We will know it when we return to China. If she is really Lucia, the target is so obvious. It is not difficult to find her.” Zack soon calmed down.

“Okay. See you in our homeland.” Sophia quickly hung up the phone.

When the siblings met again, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Strinas’ wildest gossip was about Malcolm and Lucia. Even Lucia’s publicity, marriage and funeral a few years ago were dug up one by one. Everyone was talking about these legendary people, which was the best topic people could talk about in their free time.

In the glass-roofed villa, Lucia took the SIM card with the same phone number she used five years ago, which Johnny had bought her yesterday. Now that she had admitted her identity, she had to face everything first, no matter how hard she tried to escape. Lucia felt a little guilty towards her friends whom she had left without saying goodbye. She closed her eyes slightly. When she opened them again, she inserted the new SIM card into her phone and turned it on. The familiar screen appeared and Lucia was overcome with mixed feelings.

Lucia took the phone and looked at it for a long time. She dialed the number she had never forgotten in recent years. When the phone was connected, she was a little nervous.

“Lucie, I don’t know you. Sophia’s angry voice came from the other end of the line.

“Sophia, if you don’t know me, how did you know my name was Lucia?” Hearing the familiar voice, Lucia was in a good mood.

“You’re so annoying… How could you deceive us like that? How can you…” Sophia said in a hushed voice.

“Sorry…Sophie.” Lucia didn’t know what else to say at the moment. All his explanations were useless.

The two talked on the phone for a long time until the phone went out of power. Lucia looked at the dark screen and smiled. She took the charger and restarted the phone. As expected, the phone had already received a message from Sophia, telling her the time and location of tonight’s dinner. Shaking her head, Lucia changed her clothes and went downstairs to pick up her two children.

“Mom…Leila said you would take us out to dinner tonight. Is that true?” There was obvious excitement in Kathy’s tone.

“Yes. The aunt we will meet tonight is my best friend. You two need to behave, understand?” Lucia nodded with a smile and urged the two children to change their clothes as soon as possible.

Leila held Kathy’s hand, while Lowe quietly followed them. When they came out after changing, Lucia was waiting for them in the living room.

The excitement on Kathy’s face couldn’t be hidden. Since arriving in China, she found that her living space was limited in and around the villa area. Besides these places, she had nowhere to go. Every day, she also had to face her brother’s unfriendly face. It was rare for her to leave here and go to a new place. For Kathy, nothing was more exciting than that.

On the other hand, Lowe looked much calmer. Lucia looked at her sensible son, with great satisfaction in her eyes. She held their hands, got into the car that had been waiting for a long time, and drove towards the destination. Along the way, Lucia kept smiling. It was really good to rediscover the friendship that she thought had completely disappeared.

As usual, they had dinner at the Pastasweet restaurant.

While Zack and Sophia were thinking about how to find Lucia, Sophia received a call from Lucia unexpectedly. The brothers and sisters were stunned for a moment. As they sat in a hidden corner of the restaurant, Sophia still couldn’t believe that she had really spoken to Lucia on the phone earlier. On the other hand, Zack kept comforting her. He appeared calm on the surface, but his frequent glances at the restaurant entrance revealed his current agitation.

Finally, the familiar figure of Lucia appeared at the entrance of the restaurant. After looking around, Lucia found the hidden corner and walked with the two children step by step. When Lucia appeared in front of Zack and Sophia, they were even more shocked. They looked at each other and then stared at the two children next to Lucia who had completely different appearances and dispositions. There was strong confusion in their eyes.

“Wow… You must be Aunt Sophia. You are so beautiful. Kathy loves you so much,” Kathy broke the silence and said happily.

She wasn’t afraid of strangers at all. She hugged Sophia and kissed her on the cheek. Then she turned to Zack, put her arms around his neck and shook him gently.

“You must be Uncle Zack… Many aunts must love you very much. Kathy loves you very much too,” Kathy said to Zack in a sweet voice, with a big smile on her face.

Lucia smiled and watched Kathy’s routine performance. On the other hand, there was disdain in Lowe’s eyes, but he hid it well. Glancing at Lucia, he walked over and stood in front of Zack and Sophia. After greeting them lightly and introducing himself, he quickly retreated to Lucia’s side. A waiter nearby quickly pulled out seats for the three.

‘It’s so good to see you both.’

“Oh my God…” After a long time, Sophia finally came to her senses. She didn’t know what to say next.

Lucia’s return alive was already a huge shock for them. However, the children brought by Lucia at that moment gave Sophia an unexpected stimulation. What had happened to Lucia in the last five years? Sophia stared at Lucia and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Zack.

“Let’s eat first.” Zack temporarily ended the topic.

The waiter served the dishes one after the other. With Kathy’s presence, the atmosphere was not dull. Lucia briefly told her friends what had happened to her over the past five years. Tears ran down Sophia’s cheeks. Lucia hugged her and patted her back to comfort her. At this time, Kathy seemed to be very obedient, quietly eating the food on her plate, without disturbing Lucia and Sophia’s reunion.

Meanwhile, Zack’s eyes fell on Lowe. After glancing at Zack, Lowe continued to eat quietly. Zack looked him up and down for a long moment then looked away. Lowe was an exact copy of Malcolm, from his appearance to his expressions. No one who had even the slightest contact with Malcolm would doubt the origins of this child.

When Zack looked back at Lucia, Lucia met his gaze. In Lucia’s eyes, Zack got an affirmative answer. Zack shook his head slightly. Just like Malcolm had said, Lucia was destined to be entangled with him for the rest of her life.

The meal ended in chatter from Lucia and Sophia. Sophia checked the time. There were only a few guests left in the restaurant. Both children seemed tired. Sophia gave up on continuing to chat and sent Lucia and the children away first.

In the car, Kathy couldn’t help but fall asleep. Lowe’s face was also full of fatigue. When the car stopped at the villa with a glass roof, Zack got out of the car and opened the door for Lucia, so that she could carry Kathy, while Lowe followed Lucia.

“Lucia, you can’t disappear for five years like this, ever again,” Sophia said softly.

“I will not do it.” Lucie nodded and smiled.

After giving a hint with her eyes, she entered the house with the children. She had only taken two steps when Zack called her. She stopped abruptly, turned around and looked at him in confusion. Leila came out in time and took Kathy from Lowe’s arms. Then she took Lowe into the house as well. Lucia smiled at him gratefully. Then she looked at Zack, waiting for him to speak.

“Lucie…” Zack didn’t know what to say.

“What’s wrong?” Lucia asked, confused.

“No, I just want to say it’s so good to see you alive,” Zack hugged Lucia and said softly.

Lucia was so calm in his arms. The friendship she had lost for five years had never faded little by little in each other’s hearts over time. When they saw each other again, the silent embraces dissipated the nervousness hidden in his heart. It turned out that when she found the friendship she thought she had lost, the heat could melt all the ice and frost.

‘It’s so good to have you both.’
