It's Love That Blinds Him
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 111

“Hahaha…You are a good drinker. You are so good at drinking…” Seeing that Lucia drank the wine in her glass in one gulp, Meade praised him loudly.

Lucia was a famous good drinker in DZ Media. She drank from start to finish. After all the people were drunk, Lucia could still maintain a trace of sobriety. Meade knew that Lucia had been in a bad mood recently, and since meeting Malcolm, she rarely drank. He believed that with everyone’s joint efforts, he could defeat Lucia, which was the goal of most people at DZ Media. However, he didn’t expect Lucia to still be conscious after drinking so much wine.

“Um… Hey, Meade. I told you not to test Lucia’s drinking capacity. Okay now, she’s not drunk, but I think I’m going to throw up…” Hayes said bitterly .

“Don’t worry. If you can’t drink anymore, you can rest. Let the others go.”

More and more people came to toast Lucia. It seemed like they wouldn’t give up until Lucia was drunk. Lucia laughed and drank one after another. When she raised her glass again, she was stopped by Lowell. Lucia looked at him in confusion. Lowell said nothing. He took Lucia’s glass, implying to people that he would drink instead of Lucia. Everyone rejoiced.

“Lucie, you are very lucky. All the men around you are excellent… Why can’t I meet someone like that?” Mae also drank too much and began speaking too freely.

Hayes stopped Mae in time and glared at her. Mae screamed in embarrassment and covered her mouth. “How stupid of me!” How can I raise this? We’re throwing this party to make Lucia happy, not to make her unhappy. Mae smiled awkwardly. Lucia waved her hand indifferently. She glanced at Lowell. Lowell drank the wine in Lucia’s glass in one gulp. Mae also raised her glass and drank it.

The more people gathered, the crazier they played. They gradually spoke more and more freely. Lucia felt a little dizzy. Maybe she had drunk too much. In the end, she didn’t know whether she was drinking beer, wine, or imported wine. Lowell, on the other hand, helped Lucia drink most of the wine, but he didn’t look drunk at all.

“You are good at drinking.” Lucia looked at the sober Lowell and sighed.

“Don’t drink anymore. You’ve had too much to drink. I don’t want you here for drinking.” Frowning, Lowell looked at Lucia and stopped her from drinking.

Lucia looked at the man in front of her in a daze. As expected, Malcolm’s face overlapped hers. She smiles sadly. She held up the empty glass and clinked it with Lowell’s. Lowell frowned but still drank the wine in his glass. Then he looked at Lucia.

“Why is he different from you? I will never replace sincerity in him. He treats me very well, really very well. He dotes on me, allows me to do what I want and even makes me happy. Even so, I still can’t feel his sincerity. He’s like a heartless person… Why is that?” Suddenly, Lucia spoke word for word with her suppressed feelings.

She pointed to the position of Lowell’s heart and shook her head. Then she continued: “Here, this place in his body must be empty. Only in this way could he be so cold and ruthless. Underneath the cocooning, there is no sincerity.”

Lucia paused then continued. “Many people think I married him because of his money and status. It is undeniable that I also have vanity as a woman. But, do you know? The first time I saw him, I was attracted by his face. Her long eyelashes covered her deep eyes. Maybe women are naturally romantic. In this way, I indulge in it. No one can resist its sweet trap, even if it is ultimately a conspiracy. And I stupidly jump into such a trap without knowing it at all…”

Lucia burped, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her eyes were blurry as if she was remembering the past between her and Malcolm. Lowell looked at Lucia with a bit of jealousy in his eyes. He wanted to reach out to hold Lucia, but his hand stopped in the air for a moment, then he took it again.

“And then you come… You shook my heart. Sometimes I think I’m not a good woman. I change my mind often. Before I got married, I firmly told myself that I was going to bring him down in love with me, but I give up without making any effort. I easily shook my determination. In fact, Jonas and I are the same kind of people. When we see something more touching or more beneficial for ourselves , we start to swing.” Lucia looked at Lowell and told him what she was thinking.

Hearing what Lucia said, Lowell frowned. Then he held Lucia’s waist and took her to a corner. He believed that Lucia didn’t want more people to see her embarrassment. Everyone was right to leave them both alone.

“Lowell…I really appreciate your gentleness and kindness. You can always show me your sincerity, which I don’t replace in him. I don’t need to guess what you think. You can always give me this that I want before I ask. You really spoil me…I wasn’t like that before. I become greedy and unsatisfied. It’s terrible.”

Lucia’s words were very coherent without any pauses. Lowell listened quietly and did not interrupt. One could imagine how long these words had remained hidden in Lucia’s heart. The feelings she had been repressing had pushed her to the brink of collapse.

“But when you ask me to make a choice, I feel really indecisive. I can’t be with you with an incomplete heart. It’s unfair to you. Do I hate him? When I experienced the truth for the first time, I really hated him, but this kind of hatred could not dissipate my love for him. When he appeared in front of me after disappearing for a month, I unfortunately found that I missed him very much . With my body and my soul. But what he can give me is a magnificent cage and endless imprisonment…” There was sadness and loneliness in Lucia’s words.

“What should I do? I don’t know. I ask myself this question every day, but I really don’t know what to do. Even when he tells me he doesn’t love me, I’m discouraged, but I know that this is only temporary and that my heart is not dead. What am I waiting for? I don’t know. I really don’t know. I don’t even know what kind of person he is . Lowell, do you believe it? We have been together for so long, but in fact, I don’t know him at all. He is like a mystery that I will never be able to understand…” Lucia said with a smile.

“Lucie…” Lowell whispered.

He reached out and hugged her. Lucia seemed to be much more sober after expressing her feelings using alcohol. She looked at Lowell for a long time and said slowly.

“Lowell…Who are you? I don’t know either.”

“What do you want to know? I won’t hide anything from you.” Lowell said firmly.

Standing nearby, Tandy had been paying attention to Lowell and Lucia’s movements. When he heard Lowell’s words, he suddenly raised his head and looked at them, with disbelief in his eyes. ‘Are you serious?’ Tandy asked Lowell with her eyes. Lowell only glanced at Tandy, then turned his attention back to Lucia.

From her careless gaze, Tandy could see the firmness and seriousness in Lowell’s eyes, and there was even a hint of warning. “Did Lowell replace anything?” Or did Lucia say something to him? These questions kept hovering in Tandy’s mind.

“No. I’ll know when I should.” Lucia shook her head and refused.

She didn’t know why she refused. Perhaps it was an unconscious feeling of crisis. Lucia stared blankly at Lowell for a long moment.

“Lucia, let me love you.” Lowell said firmly to Lucia.

“How long can you love me? Besides, I am married. If I marry you, I will be convicted of bigamy.” Lucia said self-deprecatingly.

“Soon you’ll be single.” Lowell’s tone became cold.

“I’m not sure. How can you be so sure?” asked Lucy.

“Everything has to be resolved, right? Lowell didn’t know if he told Lucia or himself.

“Maybe.” Lucia’s tone was vague.

Suddenly, a piece of cake flew out and hit Lucia’s head. Everyone was dazed for a while. It seemed that they were too much and disturbed the two people who were talking at the moment. But soon, Lucia reacted. She grabbed the cake from her head, walked over roughly, and wiped it on the face of the nearest person.

Everyone was constantly shouting and running, dodging the cake’s attack. Even Tandy, who was nearby, was inevitably attacked by the cake. He frowned and lightly wiped the cake off his face. He looked at Lowell next to him, confused and thoughtful.

The scene became more and more lively. Lucia was pushed into Lowell’s arms. The crowd hooted and wiped the rest of the cake off Lucia and Lowell’s faces in excitement. Someone shouted “f**k”, which embarrassed Lucia a little. She wanted to say something but was stopped by Lowell’s k**s.

“Wow! A new beginning for Lucie! Oh my God! Let’s have a big party!” shouted Hayes, who had drunk too much.

Maybe it was because she was drunk, maybe it was because of the tenderness in Lowell’s eyes, or maybe it was because Lucia had lost the balance in her heart, she had accepted his k**s. The two were completely immersed in the k**s. The sweet smell of the cake and the effect of the alcohol created a sweet and ambiguous atmosphere. Some people even started counting the time until Lowell let go of Lucia. And there were people constantly screaming for one more k**s.

“Don’t you think they are a perfect match? He will be nice to Lucia, won’t he? Lucia is truly a woman worthy of men’s love. She is strong, sincere, and will not conquer any difficulty. Those who do not cherish it are fools.” Hayes said as he sat down next to Tandy.

Tandy ignored this drunk man. However, his eyes were fixed on Lucia again because of what Hayes had said. Then he glanced at Lowell, who was looking after her. Tandy’s eyes were dark and lonely. Soon his eyes became firm. It would be royal to him forever.

Suddenly, Tandy’s phone rang. He walked to a quiet place and answered the phone. After a while, he hung up the phone, looked at the people who were still in ecstasy, and left quietly. Glancing at Tandy’s outgoing figure from the corner of his eye, Lowell soon returned his attention to the scene. He looked at Lucia, who was playing happily, with a slight smile in her eyes.

The game continued and the curtain slowly rose. Who was the person who controlled the game?
