It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 202
At eight o’clock in the morning the sun in Strinas was unusually hot. The sunlight shone on people’s skin, and the slight burning made them want to reach for cold air unconsciously. The city’s white-collar workers got off the subway and ran quickly on the road. As they entered the buildings, they sighed deeply. They tried hard to feel the coolness brought by the air conditioner and chased away the summer heat on their bodies.
As for Lucia, it seemed that she had never really felt the hot summer in Strinas since her return. Sitting at her desk, Lucia listened carefully to Johnny’s schedule report and thought for a moment.
“Ms. Lucia, do you need a car to go to the Evans Group?” Johnny asked Lucia.
“Get the car ready. I’ll be right downstairs,” Lucia said lightly after a long moment.
“Yes.” Johnny turned around and left.
Lucia was in no hurry to leave. She headed towards the tea table, opened a bag of good tea, and brewed tea skillfully. When she tasted the mellow tea, Lucia seemed to calm down a lot. After drinking the last sip of tea, she slowly got up and left the office. The The driver had already prepared the car and was waiting for her at the door.
As soon as Lucia appeared, the reporters surrounded her. She frowned slightly. Her cold aura made the reporters consciously stop. The security guards quickly appeared and stopped the reporters away from Lucia, letting her get into the car safely. After Lucia sat down, the driver quickly drove towards the Evans group under the sign of Johnny. As soon as the car
was parked at the gate of the Evans Group, the reporters here saw that it was Lucia’s car and surrounded the car one after another. Lucia frowned slightly and looked at the reporters surrounding the car. Many of them were paparazzi working for entertainment weeklies. A trace of dissatisfaction and anger quietly covered his face.
“Ms. Lucia, I’ll get out of the car and take care of it.” Johnny wanted to get out of the car first.
“There’s no need. They wouldn’t give up until they see me. This kind of drama will continue,” Lucia said lightly.
Johnny frowned slightly and looked at the crazy reporters in front of him. In Spain, journalists had curiosity, but they also had a professional ethic. However,
Johnny got out of the car, opened the door for Lucia and shielded her from the reporters. However, Johnny obviously underestimated the abilities of these paparazzi in Strinas. No matter how much he guarded himself, the reporters’ microphones were still sent to Lucia, and they threw out pointed questions one after another.
“Ms. Lucia, why are you coming to the Evans Group?”
“That day we saw you and Mr. Evans were near the Dresse group and then you got into his car. Is it possible for you two to rekindle your relationship?”
“Is it because of you that the Evans Group wants to be Dream’s agent?”
“Please tell us…”
The journalists did not give Lucia time to rest. The overwhelming questions made Lucia frown. She raised her head and looked at the reporters who seemed to have gone too far. The sharpness of his eyes fell on them, making them shrink involuntarily. Lucia didn’t resist at all, so they forgot that Lucia in front of them was not the previous Lucia, but the CEO of the Dresse Group.
“I’m sorry. Our CEO does not accept any interviews. Today’s trip is to visit the Evans Group at the invitation of the Deputy General Manager of the Evans Group. Please step aside,” Johnny replied for Lucia and refused any another question.
But such a simple answer would not satisfy the journalists present. However, seeing Lucia’s increasingly furrowed brows and cold eyes, the reporters wisely stopped asking questions and arranged for Lucia to leave. The commotion at the door also attracted the attention of the Evans group members. They surrounded the door and watched the party.
“Hmm? What’s wrong? Have you all been very idle these days? Are you here to have fun?” The sudden and cold voice quickly made the onlookers turn their heads. When they saw clearly who it was, they immediately dissipated.
After receiving the news from the security guards, Malcolm went downstairs without hesitation. Unexpectedly, he encountered such a disturbance downstairs. When the reporters saw that it was Malcolm, they subconsciously moved aside. Their eyes met, then everyone looked silently at Lucia and Malcolm, who were walking towards her.
“Ms. Garcia is an important guest of the Evans Group. Do you have any further questions to ask?” Malcolm’s cold voice echoed at the source of the disturbance, but no one dared to say anything more easily.
Lucia raised her head and looked at Malcolm. He said she was an important guest. It seemed that Lucia had returned to her original appearance. With a slight sneer at the corner of her mouth, she headed towards the Evans Group door since Malcolm had cleared the obstacles. When she passed Malcolm, she didn’t even look at him. However, before she could completely surpass him, her hand was held by him and could not move. Seeing this scene, the reporters lowered their heads and chatted among themselves. Some intrepid people picked up their cameras and took photos, but what they saw was Malcolm’s cold stare.
“Do you want to get back together with Ms. García?” asked someone who was not afraid of death after a long silence, and everyone present jumped in shock.
Malcolm gave him an indifferent look, and the security guards quickly moved forward and formed a wall between the reporters and Malcolm and Lucia. Lucia was a little stunned by the journalist’s question. After glancing at Lucia, Malcolm took her hand and headed towards the building. After taking a few steps, Lucia finally realized that her hand was being held by Malcolm. With a little force, she broke free from his grip and followed him indifferently, while Johnny followed dutifully and quickly.
The senior employees of the Evans Group didn’t know Lucia, but they had only seen the reports of their marriage years ago. In fact, few employees had seen her in person. It was the first time most of the employees had met her in person in such a situation. Even though they were working, all eyes were secretly following Malcolm and Lucia. They didn’t remove their gazes until the two entered the elevator.
“Why do I feel like there is something special between the big boss and her?” a receptionist said to her colleague.
“That’s obvious. But we better not gossip about our big boss. Let’s get back to work.” The colleague replied in the affirmative and then continued to work.
After the three entered the elevator, the atmosphere between Malcolm, Lucia and Johnny was a bit weird. The elevator stopped on the top floor. Lucia came out first. As expected, she faced Bob who had been waiting for a long time. Lucia gave Bob a slight nod, then Malcolm and Johnny walked out.
“Mrs. Evans, I haven’t seen you in a long time. You look more beautiful,” Bob said respectfully. He never changed the way he addressed Lucia.
Johnny raised his eyebrows in surprise at Bob’s words. He had never heard anyone call Lucia that. Johnny was surprised to hear this. But soon Enoch appeared and his words made Johnny even more confused.
“My dear sister-in-law, it’s so good that you’re still alive,” Enoch said bluntly.
Lucia looked coldly at the two faces in front of her. She frowned slightly, seeming displeased with what they were calling her. Standing aside, Malcolm did not correct them. With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, he waited to see how Lucia would react to the situation before her.
“I’m sorry. Mrs. Evans was already buried five years ago. I think you are calling me the wrong way. If you insist, I think there is no need for me to come to the Evans Group ,” Lucia retorted coldly to Bob and Enoch. Then she looked at Malcolm indifferently. The atmosphere got a little weird.
“Three cups of coffee,” Malcolm ordered Bob, finally breaking the silence.
“Yes.” Bob quickly entered the affiliated teahouse. The atmosphere here made him uncomfortable.
Lucia and Enoch followed Malcolm into his office. Lucia sat down furthest from Malcolm. Enoch put the plan of being Dream’s agent that he had prepared in front of Lucia. Lucia picked up the plan, looked through it roughly and put it aside.
At the same time, Bob brought the coffee. Lucia picked up a cup of coffee and drank it slowly. The plan that the Evans group could provide must be comprehensive and feasible. It didn’t matter whether she read it or not. Furthermore, Lucia thought that since Brown had flown here in person to sign this agreement, he must have verified it. Brown is still famous for his caution. He would not judge the feasibility of a plan based on a company’s reputation.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything you’re not satisfied with?” Malcolm asked after a long silence.
“No. Now that Brown could fly here in person, that meant there should be absolutely no problems. There’s no point in me reading it,” Lucia said, holding the coffee cup in her hands.
Glancing at Lucia, Enoch didn’t know what she was doing. After so much, Lucia was in charge of running Queenword, while Malcolm insisted on being its agent. In the end, the contract they negotiated was still the previous one. His eyes darkened and he looked at Lucia curiously. Lucia looked directly into Enoch’s eyes. After they both looked at each other for a long time, Lucia withdrew her attention and looked at Malcolm.
But Enoch still felt something was wrong, although he couldn’t say how. In Lucy’s eyes, what Enoch saw was calm and a little hesitation and contradiction.
“Then what do you mean?” Malcolm asked coldly, putting his affection aside.
“I will let the Evans Group be the agent of Dream. But the Evans Group must participate and coordinate all advertising matters of Queenword’s flagship store in Strinas and remove all obstacles.” Lucia highlighted her condition after a while.
All competitions in the business world could be divided into virtuous and vicious. Queenword was famous in Europe, like a queen among luxuries. But in Asia, it was not as famous as Cartier or Tiffany… If Queenword did not want to change its original intention, it was better to find a powerful partner than to fight alone.
No matter what Lucia wanted to do to Malcolm, when it came to the Queenword, Lucia only had one goal. She couldn’t let Jenny down. There had already been examples of failure. One could only say that Queenword had been too conventional before. The pride of Europe made them too reserved and missed the craziest period in the development of luxury. Lucia would not let this brand go.
“Well, no problem.” After thinking for a short while, Malcolm accepted Lucia’s condition.
“If there is no problem, we can sign the contract at any time. The rest of the matters will be handled by you. If you need the cooperation of the Dresse Group, we will cooperate.” Lucia said calmly. Then she was about to get up and leave.
“Let’s have lunch together,” Malcolm said, holding Lucia’s hand in a commanding tone.
Lucia looked at him for a long time and met the provocation in his eyes. She broke away from his grip, turned around and looked at him face to face for a long moment before saying lightly, “Okay…I have the honor of being invited by Mr. Evans for lunch.”
“I won’t disturb your lunch. I’ll take Johnny. I’ll tell him the details,” Enoch quickly interjected.
With Enoch’s nod, Bob quickly approached and stood on the other side of Johnny. He and Enoch took Johnny away by half force. Before leaving, Johnny looked at Lucia with a worried look on his face. Lucia showed him an expression, indicating that he didn’t need to worry about her. She looked calmly Malcolm, who had already walked towards the window.
“What do you want to eat?” Malcolm turned around and asked Lucia after everyone had left.
“It’s yours.” Lucia seemed distant and polite.
“Do you have to be like this?” There was helplessness in Malcolm’s tone.
The next second, Lucia fell into his arms. To her surprise, Lucia didn’t struggle. She slowly closed her eyes, smelling Malcolm’s scent and listening to his heartbeat. Suddenly, Lucia pushed him away, quickly adjusted her rumpled clothes, and put on a cold expression as she looked at Malcolm.
Lowell had had the same strong heartbeat before. He had given all the warmth to Lucia when she was in the worst situation. As for Malcolm, he had nothing to do. He just needed to hug her lightly in order to easily clear all his thoughts and occupy his heart. This kind of out-of-order affection made Lucia panic. Panic spread from the bottom of his heart and made him push Malcolm away without hesitation. She refused to be swayed by such emotion.
“Let’s go,” Malcolm said lightly to Lucia.
“No, I just remember that I have a client meeting at noon. Let’s have lunch next time.” Lucia flinched and said indifferently. “
Wild cat…” There was a hint of helplessness in Malcolm’s tone.
Lucia no longer cared what he called her. She just came out of the office. At the same time, Johnny, who was still being harassed by Enoch and Bob at the door, saw Lucia coming out and s quickly headed towards her. The two entered the elevator together, and Bob quickly followed them, sending them out of the Evans group. “
Malcolm…” Looking at Malcolm, who was behind, Enoch didn’t know what say.
“It doesn’t matter. We have a lot of time ahead of us. Once the contract is ready, inform the Dresse Group to sign it,” Malcolm said coldly.
“Don’t my sister-in-law need to sign it in person?” » Enoch asked in confusion.
“Sometimes if I push it too hard, I’ll lose more.” After saying this, Malcolm returned to his office, leaving Enoch alone.
If someone wanted to get back the person they lost, they needed more patience and intrigue. Looking at Lucia’s fleeing figure, there was firmness in Malcolm’s eyes. ‘Wildcat, I’ll definitely make you come back to me.’
