It's Love That Blinds Him -
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 128
“It’s really her… What a coincidence!” Enoch exclaimed in a strange voice.
Italy was neither big nor small. Even if Lucia appeared in Italy, she should be in Milan with Lowell. The problem was that Lowell was still in Milan without moving, while Lucia was in Rome. The most ridiculous thing was that their trip to Rome had been suggested by Malcolm on a whim. How could they have met like this?
Malcolm glanced at Enoch and said nothing. Ever since he saw Lucia’s familiar figure next to the wishing pool, he couldn’t help but follow her footsteps. At first Enoch was confused, but now he realized why Malcolm was willing to walk aimlessly through the streets of Rome. Malcolm couldn’t even keep a meeting with a mob boss.
“You go visit Metheus for me. I have other things to do,” Malcolm ordered coldly and stepped forward.
Watching Malcolm’s retreating figure, Enoch sighed silently. It was difficult to address the questions of love. Even the god like Malcolm was no exception. Even if Lucia had betrayed him, he couldn’t really take her out of his heart.
“My dear brother, you love Lucia. You let her go, but “You didn’t follow the divorce procedures. She’s still Mrs. Evans legally, Enoch thought. Finally, after looking at the disappearing figure, he turned and left, leaving Kaleb behind. Kaleb followed Malcolm, but he did not approach him deliberately but left him alone.
Standing on the side of the street, Malcolm looked at Lucia through the shop window. Her long hair still fell over her shoulders and her side features seemed particularly angular, but it seemed that she was much thinner, which made her originally small face even paler.
Did she eat well?
Malcolm cursed in his heart. Even though Lucia’s betrayal had left a long wound in his heart, which was bloody and obvious, he could not get Lucia out of his heart. She was like a plant that took root easily underground. She had left her root deep in her heart. Even if he could easily remove it, it would grow back after a short rest. She was like an annoying and stubborn plant.
Lucia opened the wooden door, pushed the wind bells and entered the store. She nodded to the store owner and walked towards the window. Zack followed Lucia all the way. He raised his eyebrows and looked at the thing Lucia had picked up. It was a delicate glass cat.
“Is this what you wanted to see?” ” Obviously,
“Don’t you think it’s beautiful?” It has a transparent glass heart!” Lucia praised as she looked closely at the exquisitely shaped glass cat. The
glazed material reflected dazzling light under the soft warm yellow light. It was rare to see a glaze pure black color, and it was even more precious to make it in the shape of a cat. The cat’s eye was made of blue-colored glaze, and the curled tail showed the cat’s spirit. Why did she have
the impression that this cat was more like a cheetah, elegant and charming, lazy and attractive? Lucia carefully played with the glazed black cat as if she was fascinated by it. “Do you like it
? Then I’ll buy it for you… Just take it as a late birthday present,” Zack raised his eyebrows and said casually.
He remembered that Lucia’s birthday had just passed. He had always been good at pleasing to women, not to mention the fact that the woman was Lucia. She had a close relationship with the Young family. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered to take her to relax. “What
? Is this what you want to give me for my birthday? I thought you were generous,” Lucia teased good-naturedly.
“Hey… Well, what do you want? Cartier jewelry? A Tiffany diamond? Or a Chanel bag? You can make the choice. I’ll pay the bill,” Zack said generously.
“No, I can buy it myself. I won’t be lucky once I get a birthday present.” Lucia smiled self-deprecatingly and refused Zack’s suggestion.
It seemed that all the nightmares started from her birthday party. Everything like in the story of Cinderella, once it was midnight at midnight, everything would be returned to its original state. There was no more the pumpkin carriage, no more the prince, no more the ball… There n There was only Lucia, who had been returned to her original state.
Zack doesn’t say anything more. Lucia picked up the frozen black cat and walked towards the counter. The store owner praised Lucia’s good taste, and at the same time he also explained why the glass cat was expensive and valuable. Then he offered Lucia a prize. Lucia nodded without bargaining. The store owner quickly packed up the black cat. Lucia wanted to take money out of her bag to pay the bill. After a moment, she looked down and seemed a little hesitant.
She had forgotten that she had come to Italy with Lowell. She did not bring cash or a credit card with her. The only bank card in her bag was the one Lowell had given her before she left for Rome.
The store owner looked at the hesitant Lucia strangely and handed her the well-wrapped glass cat. When Lucia was about to refuse him, Zack quickly took out his credit card and handed it to the store owner. The store owner swiped the card. Zack signed quickly, then quickly pulled Lucia, who wanted to say something but hesitated, towards the door.
“Well… This is meant to be a birthday present from me. If you don’t want such a birthday present, you can return the money to me later,” Zack said quickly to mitigate Lucia’s embarrassment.
“Thank you,” Lucia said gratefully.
“Silly girl, you don’t have to thank me… If Sophia knows that I only give you such a gift on your birthday, she will definitely scold me harshly,” Zack shrugged his shoulders and said jokingly
. two left the glass shop and continued walking on the streets of Rome. Malcolm looked at the two people dating. There was an invisible doubt in his eyes. Why did Lucia appear in Rome with Zack? And Lowell? But soon, that doubt was hidden.
Malcolm gestured to Kaleb, who wasn’t far behind him, motioning for him to follow the two, as he entered the glass shop Lucia had just left.
” Welcome,” the store owner raised his head and greeted.
Ignoring the store owner, Malcolm walked straight to the glass window. The place where the black cat was originally placed was empty, and there were only “a white cat of the same style left alone. It must have been Lucia who bought the black cat. Malcolm looked carefully at the white glass cat left behind. Strangely, he saw Lucia’s stubbornness in her eyes.
“Do you like this cat too? An oriental couple has just bought a black one. In fact, they were a pair of cats. The black one is a man and the white one is a woman.” The store owner walked to the back of Malcolm.
Many orientals believed that cats were not a good omen, especially black cats. However, the oriental couple who had just left had been watching the cats here for a long time, especially the woman. She really liked the black glass cat. And now it seemed that Malcolm had entered with the intention of going to the glass window and seeing the cat.
“Pack it for me,” Malcolm ordered directly, without answering the store owner’s question.
“No problem.” The store owner was sensible enough to stop asking.
After signing his name on the bill, Malcolm quickly picked up the wrapped glass cat and walked out. When he came out, he found Kaleb standing just nearby. He glanced at Kaleb then looked ahead. Lucia and Zack were sitting casually on a staircase. Next to them was some food that had just been purchased.
Malcolm stopped abruptly. If he could only see Lucia’s vague silhouette through the glass before, he could now watch Lucia carefully from afar for the moment.
Unconsciously, Malcolm reached out and wanted to touch her, but found that what he could touch was only cold air. In Italy at the end of winter, the temperature dropped significantly at night. Malcolm could clearly sense that Lucia was cold. When she was cold, she unconsciously crossed her arms over her chest.
He wanted to move forward, but after taking the first step, he returned to his original position. The scenes where Lucia and Lowell appeared together came to his mind alternately. He also thought of their quarrel, of Lucia’s pale face and her numb back as she left. Tears kept falling from his stubborn face…
He clenched his fists and the blue veins on the back of his hands showed how depressed he was at the moment. The complex emotions were constantly changing. He lowered his head and his long eyelashes covered all his thoughts.
He wanted to hold Lucia in his arms, but due to his self-esteem and pride, he could not do such a thing. Lucia’s betrayal hurt his heart. It seemed that he had gathered all his courage and strength, or that he had been thinking for a long time. After opening his eyes, he took his phone out of his pocket and dialed an unknown number.
Lucia looked at Zack, whose expression suddenly became strange. His phone kept ringing. He looked at the number for a long moment, but it didn’t answer.
“What’s going on? Is it from a woman?” Lucia asked unconsciously.
The expression on Zack’s face was like the complex expression when he was involved with a woman. But she felt something was wrong. Zack gave Lucia an apologetic smile, and Lucia shrugged indifferently, telling him to do as he pleased. He got up, walked some distance from Lucia and answered the phone.
“Why did you call me all of a sudden?” » Zack asked Malcolm, who was on the other end of the line, with a frown.
When he saw the number on the phone screen, he was stunned for a long time. He looked at the number carefully several times and was sure it was Malcolm’s. But at this point, he should wait until the mineral vein result is announced. Why did he call him? Suddenly, by instinct, a cold sweat broke out from Zack’s forehead. He remembered what Lucia had said before entering the glass shop.
“The management behind you,” Malcolm said coldly.
Frightened, Zack immediately turned around. Sure enough, he saw Malcolm hiding in the crowd more than a hundred meters away from them. Now he had to believe Lucia’s intuition. There was definitely someone following her. But this person was not a journalist, but Malcolm. ‘Oh my God… Why is Malcolm showing up in Rome too? !’ Zack suddenly felt helpless.
“Oh my God… Are you here to follow Lucia?” Zack asked directly.
“I met you by chance. Why are you with her?” Malcolm asked coldly.
“I took her to relax. Tell me, what are you doing with her? How could she be with Lowell? And you didn’t divorce him.” Zack couldn’t help but ask Malcolm curiously now that he couldn’t get the answer from Lucia.
“That’s none of your business. She’s afraid of the cold. You can take her to buy a coat, or take off your own coat and give it to her,” Malcolm ordered directly, ignoring Zack’s questions. “Hey
… Zack was so angry that he wanted to throw the phone in his hand in Malcolm’s face.
“Don’t tell him I’m here. That’s it.” After saying that, Malcolm hung up the phone.
‘Shit,’ Zack kept cursing. He looked at the phone that had been hung up and then looked at the place not far away, where Malcolm was still standing.
“What a fool!” He could sleep with other women, but he does not allow his wife to sleep with another man. Only by comparison can we know who is good and who is bad. You deserve to be cuckolded. Now you can see her but you can’t touch her here,’ Zack thought to himself.
“What’s wrong? Why do you look so strange?” Lucia looked at Zack who was returning and asked curiously.
“Nothing. I was cursed by a madman on the phone. It was unexplainable,” Zack said, venting his depression.
Lucia glanced at Zack and said nothing more. She picked up a can of beer and threw it into Zack’s arms. Glancing at Lucia, Zack sighed and reluctantly took off his coat and placed it over Lucia’s shoulders, as her back was almost transfixed by Malcolm’s burning gaze.
Lucia looked at him in confusion, but did not refuse her coat. They both sat down on the stairs. At night in Rome, the shops on the street were closed one after another, and they were still sitting there. At the same time, Malcolm also kept his original posture and looked at them until they left.
The tall figure looked a little lonely in a world without Lucia.
