Love Seduction
Chapters 21. Shocked News

Eloy frowned as she hung up the phone call from her son.

"What's the matter Dad?" reggie asked after seeing his father's forehead wrinkled.

"Your brother closed the connection quickly and hurriedly. When a girl's voice calls out to her."

Reggie giggled as he closed his mouth, "Is that Esther's voice? or his daughter?"

"Content ... it may be ... But what if it wasn't? esther's daughter has moved from there, and Esther's voice ...." Eloy stopped talking, just looking into Reggie's eyes.

"You want to tell me what Dad really is?" Reggie is back.

Eloy was just blown up, "There's no Regina .. just a father's feelings.Wish your big brother found a girl for him, even though I wish Cecilia was really that girl. Everything is still your brother's decision."

Reggie smiled, he nodded, wholeheartedly feeling the same as his father.

Lucius got out of the car and looked around from the outskirts of the road. The clap on his shoulder made him look.

"We're going up that direction, it's gonna be freer to see your land." Pabio walked towards the hill.

"Look ...." Pabio sighed, The land that was once very fertile, is full of vine-producing plants.

"Is that magnificent building Mr. Rico's mansion?" lucius asked as his eyes looked in the distance, at a Mansion that looked huge and majestic from a distance.

"That's right, Lucius. And the greenery along the area, it's Mr. Rico's plantation. Back up that hill to that little village there." Pabio.

Lucius whistled, a very large land. " He is like the owner of a hill full of vineyards,"

Pabio chuckled, "It can be said that." said Pabio.

Then they drove back, met three workers who were still working for their father, guarding the boundary of their land.

So far, the conclusion that Lucius took, the land has not been completely damaged. If he calls a professional, then it will be able to match Mr. Rico's vineyards although perhaps the extent is not comparable.

As the sun grew higher and blazing, Pabio took Lucius back home. The old man said he was curious about what Ally would cook for their lunch.

Lucius frowned when he remembered Ally. The girl looked strange, something had changed this morning. It was as if he had put some distance on Lucius. Be polite and formal. It made Lucius feel awkward to approach and tease him.

They arrive at the two-story house and are greeted by Alan who exits the front door while running.

"Uncle Lucius !" his yell.

"Slow-slow Alan!" Lucius shouted back. He ran after the boy who had gone down the steps without reducing the speed.

"Uncle .. "he said gasping as he stopped near Lucius' feet. Lucius chuckled at the excited-looking boy.

"What's wrong?" tanyanya while lifting Alan and carrying him.

Alan pressed his lips closer to Lucius's ear, whispering softly to tell him a secret.

Lucius frowned, and distanced Alan's body slightly so that he could look at the boy's face.

"really?" lucius asked Alan who nodded his head immediately.

"I caught him ..." reports Alan again.

Pabio looked at Lucius who then looked at him, But Lucius only smiled, a sign that the man would not say what Alan had whispered into Lucius' ear.

"Let's go in, let's have lunch first," Lucius asked Alan and Pabio.

They went in and washed their hands in the kitchen. Esther and Ally are busy arranging the table, preparing lunch for them.

"Hows it? What do you conclude after you go around?" esther asked Lucius, as he sat in the dining chair. Lucius smiled, he glanced at Ally who was not looking at him the slightest bit from the start as she walked into the kitchen.

"It seems I have to invite experts to see the structure of the land first, and maybe also some other professionals if indeed this land we will reopen," said Lucius.

Ally who had just pulled the chair for Alan looked frowning. The way Lucius talked about what he was going to do to the land was like an owner, not a worker. Isn't the decision in the hands of Mr Lance?

"I hope it will be done soon, Lucius. It will be very useful to open jobs for residents around the land," said Pabio.

"Certain ... It would have been quicker if Mr. Rico had cooperated ...." Lucius then closed his mouth when he heard Ally gasp.

"Ally, honey, you look pale ... What's up?" ask Esther to worry.

Ally straightened her head, looking into Lucius' eyes.

"Tell me ... What is the name of this place ..." said Ally raspy. His heart was pounding hard, lest he subconsciously return to Mr. Rico's territory.

Lucius looked at Ally. He doesn't tell her where he's going to take Ally to work, she's afraid Ally's scared that time. He was also lucky, along the way Ally fell asleep. Not knowing where the car Lucius was driving took him.

"Is this place located in the territory of the Vineyard of Costra Land? ally asked, her voice beginning to get scared.

Pabio was just about to open his mouth when Lucius' hand was raised. Making Pabio close his mouth again and shut up.

"Alison .. You trust me, don't you?" lucius said with a direct look into the girl's blue eyes.

"Yes.." whispered slowly.

"Then you believe I won't make anything happen to you, I'll protect you and Alan?" ask Lucius again.

Ally nodded, her heart pounding. His feelings said his guess was right.

"This place is directly adjacent to Mr. Rico's Costra Land plantation, Ally ... But you don't have to be afraid. He can't do anything to you. Anyway he doesn't know you're here" Lucius said, trying to calm Ally down.

Ally gulped, nausea swirling in her stomach, she felt like vomiting. Ally stood up, trying to smile with a pale face.

"I feel a little unwell. Please, keep the lunch going. I'm saying, go back ...." Ally half ran towards the back, she reached the door and exited towards the back porch which was also decorated with dangling vines, she stepped towards the grass and then looked down, looking down, spewing out his stomach contents that only contained water from morning. His fear returned, making his body tremble.

Lucius grabbed Ally's body from behind, "You don't believe my words" he whispered.

Ally turned around in Lucius' hand.

"Why didn't you say it?" ally asked weakly, her head now started to feel dizzy.

"And made you cancel plans to come with me? I told you Alison. Leave everything to me. Rico won't be able to touch you a single hair! You have to trust me!" lucius.

Ally closed her eyes, she raised her hand and held onto Lucius' arm.

Lucius saw that Ally's face was still very pale, "You must lie down!" strict orders. Lucius picked up and carried Ally. Ally gave a weak protest, but was not reprimanded by Lucius.

Lucius took Ally to the second floor, pushed the door of Ally's room with his leg and laid the girl's body on the bed.

"Now tell me what made you not eat breakfast, and then cry this morning."

Lucius' words made Ally open her eyes, staring at the black eyes that were staring at her while sitting on the edge of the bed.

"I'm not leaving if you don't want to talk. Alan told me! You said you'd eat after we left, but Alan said you didn't eat! then he caught you crying!"

Ally took a deep breath, her sister was already Lucius' spy apparently.

"Nothing ... I'm just a little nervous about being in a new place. That's it. .. Then this news .. really freaked me out. I'm afraid he'll find me."

"If that happens, he can't do anything. I promised to protect you, Ally."

"I know ... I believe, it's just that you don't know him, Lucius. He is famous for his perseverance. Because of that the plantation can be as large as now. He was persistent in getting what he wanted. And do not forgive those who have disturbed his own. That's what people say about the man."

Lucius took a deep breath. Free to convince Ally now. The moment he knew Lucius was just a worker who couldn't possibly do anything if the landlord started acting.

"Stop talking about Mr Rico! This house is far from the border with the land. The mansion goes any further, he won't know you and Alan are here ... I'll take your lunch. Don't get up, I'll bring her here,"

No need! really! I'm fine...."

"Don't argue with me, wait here, "Lucius bowed, kissing the surprised cheek of Ally receiving the treatment. Then he stood up, walking towards the door. Before he passed from there, Ally heard Lucius's stern words once more.

"You said you believed ... But you're still freaked out when I'm even around you, Ally ... You also do not want to share what is on your mind that .. that makes you cry alone, restless and scared. Am I really not able to trust you?"

Ally stared at the door that Lucius had closed from above her bed. Her tears flowed, sadness came back to her heart. He is no longer like his old self. The strong, did not even shed a single tear when he was beaten by Carloz. His heart was so easy to feel sad, his eyes so easily water .. it became crybaby ...

And it's all because of you ... Lucius ....
