It's Love That Blinds Him
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 47

A week after filming, the commercial video and printed advertising photos were submitted for Enoch’s review. They were waiting to be approved and signed by Enoch.

Generally, if the sales department confirms that there is nothing abnormal, its signature is only a formality. So he was about to sign them without even checking. However, when the tip of his pen was about to touch the document, a photo accidentally slipped out. His mouth opened in amazement, and the pen in his hand fell.

“Malcolm!” What does it mean? This is madness! Madness! “, Enoch muttered to himself. Then he grabbed the photos and rushed out of his office.

“Mr. Evans, the document has not been signed yet,” Sybil said. What happened? Why is he in such a hurry? She shrugged and continued her work.

Enoch sneaked up to Malcolm’s office and entered without knocking. Malcolm was reading a cooperation case evaluation report. Seeing as Enoch entered, he frowned but said nothing.

“Malcolm… What is it?” » Enoch took out the photos and placed them on Malcolm’s desk.

” As you can see. » Malcolm’s response was very concise. He didn’t even explain himself.

“But…Malcolm…” Enoch didn’t know what to say anymore.

” Is there a problem? Malcolm asked calmly as he put down the document in his hands and stared at Enoch.

“Malcolm, tell me the truth. Are you in love with Lucia? Enoch asked with a scowl after thinking for a moment.

“No,” he replied. There was no emotion on his face

Enoch was speechless. His nose almost bled when he saw this batch of photos. It was the first time he saw Lucia so charming. It seemed that the image she had given at the party that evening had disappeared from her memory. It was replaced by her dazzling and impressive image this time.

He could not dispute that such printed advertising photos and such a commercial video would be so powerful. After the mysterious change in the business model, Lucia’s intrinsic charm combined with Malcolm’s mysterious aura, and rumors of their romantic relationship could well make for good publicity before the perfume even goes on sale.

“Delete that one.” Then you can ask them to post the others. » After carefully examining the photos in the file, Malcolm removed one, frowned, and handed the remaining one back to Enoch.

Enoch looked at the photo and said to himself, “Although all the photos are flawless, Lucia looks incredibly sexy in the one that Malcolm took down.” Since only her shoulders and face were visible, people might think she was naked. Men will certainly be tempted, and women will be surprised and jealous when they see this photo.

And Malcolm actually wanted to keep it to himself. But of course, Enoch didn’t dare say these things out loud. The last time he upset Malcolm, he was thrown into the Middle East and suffered greatly. If he were to be thrown into another dangerous place to play such a scary game, his life would definitely be cut short.

Every day, Lure’s commercial aired around the world during prime time, from 8 to 10 a.m. Giant advertising posters were also placed in prominent places around the city. The video of the spot was even broadcast on LED screens in various shopping centers. At the end of the video, a line read: “Are you tempted? Coming soon. »

As expected, the perfume boomed from the launch of the energetic advertising campaign and the publication of advertising photos with a strong visual impact. It was more shocking than we imagined before it was put on the market. Potential customers were no longer limited to women but also extended to men. They bought the perfume for their girlfriends and wives. In other words, they were attracted to Lucia.

This made Lucia famous all over the world in record time. No one knew his name, but his enchanting face was deeply etched in people’s minds. Ordinary people may have already forgotten that Lucia made headlines because of scandals. But sharp-eyed journalists immediately recognized it. And it wasn’t hard for them to recognize Malcolm either.

Lucia and Malcolm once again found themselves on the front lines of news broadcasts.

But for now, she was at DZ Media.

“Lucia, I think the reporters down there really want to bombard you with questions,” Hayes commented. He looked at the crowd of reporters downstairs through the glass.

Lucia followed the trajectory of his gaze. And when she saw the journalists outside, she immediately felt a headache. She rubbed her furrowed brows, thinking about how she would leave the office later.

Eventually, she disguised herself with a wig and glasses when she left work. In the company of her colleagues and escaped through the back door without difficulty. But she couldn’t take the metro or the bus to get to her apartment. His giant posters were placed in the most populated places. She would be easily recognized. Luckily, Malcolm’s apartment was only a thirty minute walk from Lucia’s business. A car was not necessary as she could get there by walking.

She didn’t want the scene to become even more chaotic, so she flatly refused when Malcolm offered to pick her up. Although she couldn’t exonerate herself, she didn’t want to deal with these reporters who were more terrifying than vampires.

“Go up. »

Lucia had barely taken a few steps when a car stopped next to her. It was not the Land Rover she knew, but a BMW touring car. She didn’t need to see the person speaking to recognize Malcolm’s uniquely low, magnetic voice.

Without any hesitation, she got into the car and quickly closed the door. The car changed direction smoothly, turned onto the main road and headed towards the apartment.

“If you’re feeling bored, you can take a break for now.” In any case, the case could be closed temporarily. Once the perfume is on the market, our company will hold a press conference to explain the situation. After that, these journalists will no longer harass you. Until then, you can return to work as usual,” Malcolm said with unusual patience.

” All right “,

Reporters surrounded his company building. And it was very disturbing both for her and for the other people working in the building. Everyone who passed DZ Media always looked inward. Despite the fact that her colleagues didn’t complain given that they had worked together for many years, Lucia didn’t want to cause them any problems. That’s why she accepted Malcolm’s suggestion.

Holding the steering wheel with one hand, Malcolm reached out the other to gently hold Lucia’s. She glanced at him but didn’t refuse. Then they both fell silent. Only music from the stereo was heard in the car.

” What do you want to eat? Malcolm suddenly asked.

“Steak… Beef short ribs. » While speaking, Lucia glanced at the steak house that the car flashed in front of with eager eyes. “But we can’t eat outside. There are eyes everywhere. » There was deep regret in his voice.

Malcolm glanced at Lucia without saying anything and continued to drive attentively. Before Lucia could know it, they had already pulled into the basement parking lot of a large supermarket.

“What are we going to do here? » She looked at him confusedly.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to eat steak?” “, Malcolm said with a smile. His voice was particularly soft.

” So what? Are we here to eat raw steak? asked Lucia, raising her eyebrows and pointing to the giant supermarket sign.

“We’ll buy some raw meat here, and I’ll cook it for you,” Malcolm explained indifferently.

He got out of the car, turned to the passenger seat and opened the door. Then he took her hand, and they walked into the supermarket. Inside the supermarket, there were only a few young people. Most were middle-aged couples and people who brought their kids to hang out. In the midst of such a crowd, the presence of Malcolm and Lucia attracted attention. Fortunately, few people were interested in them. They were therefore in a more or less safe place.

Malcolm pushed the cart while Lucia chose some ingredients. As she put some items in the cart, he whispered to her from time to time. Then she would select something else.

These two looked like an ordinary couple who had gone shopping and came home to cook together. When this thought crossed Lucia’s mind, she was a little stunned. Watching Malcolm carefully choose his steaks in front of her, she blushed slightly.

“Malcolm, have you ever fallen in love with me?” ”, she thought.

” What are you thinking about? Malcolm asked gently. Raising his eyebrows, he looked at Lucia, who was staring at him in a daze.

“Nothing,” Lucia replied slowly, shaking her head.

“Let’s go then. »

“Okay. »

Sometimes things didn’t go the way we wanted them to. A place you thought was safe could also be a little risky. When Malcolm and Lucia were waiting in line at the counter, they unexpectedly came across a journalist who recognized them. But the journalist did not take out his camera to take photos. He just greeted them.

After paying, Malcolm looked at the reporter indifferently. Then he picked up the bag with one hand and held Lucia’s hand with the other. They left the supermarket without any complexes. The journalist was stunned to see them go out calmly. Whether their relationship is real or not, shouldn’t public figures like them, whose romantic relationships were the subject of everyone’s gossip, moderate their behavior in public to a greater or lesser extent? However, there was not the slightest trace of fear in Malcolm.

A feeling of excitement filled the reporter’s face. He quickly took out his phone and called his team to report what he had just seen. He also took a photo of their backs as they both left with their hands intertwined. If this photo occupied the front page of major newspapers, coupled with today’s news, it would definitely make the most sensational headlines the next day.

As soon as Malcolm and Lucia arrived home, he left her in the living room while he went to the kitchen to prepare their dinner. Watching him bustling around in the kitchen, Lucia smiled slightly. A feeling of happiness arose in his heart. A man of her social standing did not pay attention to her status and had cooked for her more than once. It really made his heart sink.

Lucia, without realizing it, touched the necklace she wore around her neck, while still smiling. She made a decision.
