It's Love That Blinds Him -
It’s Love That Blinds Him – Chapter 178
The next day, at the Evans family cemetery, to everyone’s surprise, the Evans group did not refuse interviews. They simply did not allow journalists into the venue to take photos because it would be disrespectful to the dead. Before Lucia’s funeral ended, the path in front of the Evans family cemetery was crowded with countless journalists.
A few months ago, they had learned from Malcolm that Lucia was pregnant and therefore could not attend Wilma’s funeral. What had happened over the past few months that caused Lucia’s funeral today? The reporters present looked at each other in confusion, but no one dared to ask any questions. After all, there were a lot of strange things happening in the upper class, which they, as ordinary people, could not interfere with. They could watch fun when there was fun, but when there wasn’t, they could rest easy. After all, no one wanted to lose their job.
As the cars approached the cemetery, the journalists consciously gave way. When the cars arrived at the cemetery gate, the security guards opened the gate. Malcolm got out of the car first. He wore a black suit and a black shirt, and the sunglasses covered the sadness in his eyes. He headed towards the cemetery and Enoch quickly followed.
During the previous mourning process, Malcolm had completed the ceremony of Lucia entering the pedigree. Under media testimony, Malcolm personally entered Lucia’s name into the ancient Evans family pedigree. And her identity was Mrs. Evans. It’s the Evans family tradition. No matter how many wives a son of the family had and how many times he married, there could only be one wife recorded in the pedigree. This invisibly told the whole world that except for the deceased Lucia, Malcolm would never have another wife who could be recorded in the pedigree.
This time, there were obviously fewer people coming to the cemetery. They were all family and friends of Malcolm and Lucia, while all contacts in the business circle were excluded. Journalists were prohibited from approaching the main gate of the cemetery. Security guards set up the cordon outside the main gate. The cemetery gate was closed slowly after everyone entered.
Holding a box in his hands, Malcolm slowly walked towards the center of the cemetery. He walked over to the tombstone with Lucia’s name on it and gently placed the box into the open inner layer. Lucia didn’t have a real urn. There were only a few things Lucia left in the box. Then he picked up the common callaly, which was Lucia’s favorite flower, and placed it in front of her tombstone.
He stared at Lucia’s photo on the tombstone. Her smile in the photo was so bright, sexy, confident and free. But such a person would never appear in front of him again. After a long moment, Malcolm stood up and moved to the side. The other people came forward and bowed one by one and placed the common callily they had prepared in front of Lucia’s photo.
The last one was Sophia. She walked step by step towards her best friend. She couldn’t believe that this would be the last meeting between her and Lucia last time. Sophia wanted to touch the Lucia in the photo, but she couldn’t touch her with the cold touch. Tears finally fell from her eyes and fell onto the delicate wooden box in her hand.
“Lucie… Did I care too little about you? I didn’t know until you were already dead. The people of the Evans family knew about your relationship with the White family, but that didn’t “has more importance. Today, I brought the wooden box and the bracelet that your mother gave you. Let them accompany you. At least, when you can feel your mother’s aura, you won’t be so alone,” Sophia said in a sobbing voice.
“Lucia, in our next life, we will still be such good friends. But you are not allowed to leave me alone like this in our next life. Who else can I talk to in the future?” Sophia could no longer hold back her tears.
Zack slowly walked over to his sister and comforted her. At the same time, Malcolm took Sophia’s wooden box. He himself placed it in the open middle layer of the tomb. And at that moment, he seemed to see the light in the box. He frowned slightly and took back the wooden box that had been put down. Noticing the abnormal phenomenon at the moment, Sophia wiped the tears on her face and quickly walked towards Malcolm. The other people didn’t know what was going on and seemed a little confused.
After exchanging a look with Malcolm, Enoch stood out. He bowed to everyone present today to express his gratitude on behalf of the Evans family. Then, he announced that the funeral was ending early because Malcolm wanted to be alone with Lucia.
Everyone else present had already sent flowers to Lucia. After hearing what Enoch said, they all left the Evans family cemetery. Soon there were only Malcolm, Enoch, Sophia and Zack left in the cemetery. Kaleb and the others also retreated to wait outside the cemetery.
Malcolm carefully picked up the delicate wooden box and opened it. The bracelet inside glowed with scarlet light, which was not dazzling but just enough to illuminate the inside of the wooden box. He picked up the bracelet carefully and wanted to see the pattern inside, but the scarlet light was dim.
The people present looked at each other, disoriented by the current situation. Finally, all eyes fell on Sophia. She directly took the bracelet from Malcolm, with a thoughtful look in her eyes. Then she gently put the bracelet into the wooden box and returned it to Malcolm.
Although he felt strange, Malcolm still took the box back. He personally placed it in the open interlayer of the tomb. Then he closed the lid. The four retreated to the tombstone. They bowed deeply again.
Malcolm stared at Lucia’s photo on the headstone again, trying to imprint her smiling face in his mind. After a long time, he carefully wiped the photo of Lucia and closed his eyes slightly.
“Wildcat, do you hate me?” I think no matter how strong you are, you must hate me right now. We are destined to be entangled in this life. Whether you’re here or not, I won’t easily leave you alone anymore. I left you when you were alive. Then I will repay you with the rest of my life.” There was self-deprecation in Malcolm’s tone.
Then he turned around and left. His tall figure looked so lonely in the eyes of others. Looking at the figure of Malcolm disappearing, Sophia was in a contradictory mood. Malcolm’s words made her feel strange. He was not as ruthless as she thought to Lucia. This man expressed his love for Lucia in his own way. But sometimes, the responsibilities and interests he carried prevented him from having too much personal affection.
“Is that true, Malcolm?” Sophia thought, looking at his back.
“Malcolm…” After thinking for a long time, Sophia finally opened her mouth.
Malcolm and Enoch, who were walking away, turned to Sophia. Even Zack looked at her in confusion. According to Sophia’s understanding, as soon as the funeral was over, she could only stand there and say goodbye to Lucia. It was absolutely impossible for her to take the initiative to speak with Malcolm. Everyone could easily sense her hostility towards him. The other three stared at her, waiting for her to speak.
“The curse on the Evans family has been resolved,” Sophia said indifferently, but her eyes were fixed on Malcolm.
“What did you say?” There was shock in Malcolm’s tone. He turned around and walked towards Sophia step by step.
Enoch looked at Sophia with confusion in his eyes. Even Zack raised his eyebrows in surprise. Even though Sophia had hidden the fact that Lucia had anything to do with the White family, the words written by the White family at the end of the stele that had anything to do with dissolving the curse were so unclear that even the traces had disappeared. How could Sophia know what those words were?
Could this be… Enoch looked at Lucia’s headstone and wondered if it had something to do with the jade bracelet. Did the strange lighter, lighter pattern on the bracelet have anything to do with the Evans family curse? Or did Lucia have something to do with the Evans family curse? Enoch sighed silently in his heart, hoping that things would not become more and more complicated.
“Lucia’s bracelet told us that the curse had been resolved. This design was the totem of the witch family. Inside the bracelet was the sigil of the White family, which sealed away most of the witch’s resentments . Then it turned b***d red. As the saying goes, “tit for tat.” The last words the White family carved on the stele were about “love.” Because of their stubbornness, the White family separated the witch and the ancestor of the Evans family, causing the witch to jump off the cliff with hatred and cast a b***d curse. Therefore, the White family used the power of the whole family to seal the “Most of the witch’s curse. In the process, the life energy of a White family elder was damaged and his strength was weakened, so part of the curse was left behind,” Sophia stammered to cause of excitement.
“And the condition for resolving the curse was that a descendant of the White family fell in love with the eldest son of the Evans family, and the two must love each other. According to Evans family tradition, only Mrs. Evans could be buried in the family cemetery. When Malcolm recorded Lucia in the family pedigree and buried her as his wife, the curse had been completely resolved. As a result, the scarlet color of the bracelet disappeared and it returned to the peace.” Sophia finished her words.
Everyone present was digesting the information Sophia had brought them. Looking at Sophia, Malcolm thought about what Wilma had said. The curse on the Evans family was to end in his generation. So her grandmother already knew the time, but she didn’t know how. What had happened?
“The White family only knew the method of resolving the curse later. It took them at least a long time to go back and write it down. Therefore, the trace of the last section on the stele was completely different from the before. Therefore, even if the ancestors of the Evans family had returned, they should not have seen it. The last words must be written after your ancestors returned. I don t know why these words were weathered so much. Maybe it’s fate,” Sophia explained indifferently, noticing Malcolm’s expression.
“Does this mean that my brother won’t have to face any possible consequences even if he doesn’t have a legitimate son when he turns fifty-five? » There was obvious excitement in Enoch’s tone.
“Yes.” Sophia nodded affirmatively.
After listening to what Sophia said, Malcolm continued to move forward in silence. He walked back to Lucia’s tombstone step by step, half-squatting down to look at Lucia in the photo.
“Is that true? Wildcat? Even in the end, you want me to spend the rest of my life with such regret? I thought I could meet you after the deadline,” Malcolm said self-deprecatingly, petting Lucia on the picture.
Looking at Malcolm’s tall figure, Sophia said nothing more but walked towards the cemetery gate. At the same time, Enoch and Zack also followed her and left the cemetery. All that remained was the solitary figure of Malcolm.
It was more painful to hear such news than not to know. Little did Enoch know how much regret and pain Malcolm would suffer after losing Lucia while taking on the responsibilities of the Evans family. In this way, the curse was resolved. The price to pay was too high.
As he was about to leave the cemetery, Enoch’s eyes fell on the nameless tombstone in the corner. The headstone seemed to have predicted Lowell’s death long ago. Had his soul returned to his hometown? Although there was no clear trace of him, Lowell had left a deep scar in the hearts of every member of the Evans family.
However, no matter what, the dead could never return. Only those who were still alive continued their unfinished journey with regret and sorrow. What cruelty! It was the never-ending nightmare caused by pain that would last a lifetime.
In the Fredrickson family castle in Spain, Lucia was watching television.
“The Evans Group held a mourning ceremony for Lucia Garcia today and buried her in the Evans family cemetery under the name Mrs. Evans. Here is our reporter’s live report.”
Lucia watched the replay on TV, and the smile on the corners of her mouth was unpredictable. There were a lot of complicated emotions in his eyes. She touched her swollen belly, but she felt no movement in it.
She could cherish what she had right now. She would never miss what she had lost. She turned off the TV. Lucia came out of the castle and took a walk in the sun. The sun in winter in southern Europe was still warm, but it could not warm Lucia’s heart. His heart became colder and colder.
” Madam “. Tandy looked at Lucia with concern.
“I’m fine,” Lucia replied simply.
It was such a high-profile ceremony that everyone could see it through the rebroadcast. However, all of this had nothing to do with her anymore. That Lucia was dead.
When winter ended and spring came, everything came back to life. A new life would begin in the spring.
