Therefore, Harmony tilted her head back and finished her red wine. She let out a hiccup and asked with blushing cheeks, âCan you return the gem to me now?â
Ezekiel was stunned for a moment, then couldnât help but chuckle. Pulling out a drawer, he grabbed the gem and placed it on the table. âSure. Here.â
Harmony grabbed the gem and heaved a sigh of relief. She even kissed the gem before getting up and thanking the man. âThank you. I wonât bother you any longer.â
Once she finished speaking, she approached the door with hurried steps, about to leave.
âHey!â Ezekiel couldnât help but call out to her.
Although she heard him, she didnât stop. Instead, she pulled the door open and left.
Ezekiel stood up, his figure resembling a prince as he stood under the lights. However, a man like him couldnât get this young lady to stay. If it had been another woman, she wouldnât have wanted to leave.
When Harmony entered the elevator, her whole body relaxed, and she leaned against the elevator wall.
Only then did she think about the feeling of being kissed just now, and her cheeks began to heat up.
Oh my gosh! I kissed him.
Meanwhile, Sera was waiting downstairs. When she saw Harmony approaching, she immediately went over. âMy dear Miss Mayo, did you get the gem?â
Harmony nodded and then took out the gem to show Sera, who also patted her chest and shouted, âHallelujah.â With a stern expression, she added, âIâll contact the jewelry provider immediately and get them to restore it. After that, you head back immediately to film the advertisement.â
Knowing she was reckless to have run abroad for a man who was unworthy of her feelings and almost lost a gem worth 15 million, Harmony nodded. âOkay. Iâll leave tonight.â
As for the incident where she kissed the man upstairs, she chose not to say a word.
âBy the way, did you meet that man? Did he say whether he was willing to become a celebrity under our label?â Sera hadnât forgotten about that matter.
Finding it funny, Harmony replied, âSera, look around and see which hotel youâre at. It costs over 60 thousand to book one nightâs stay here. Do you think a man like that would lack money and want to become a celebrity?â
It was only then that Sera realized that fact. âYouâre right. He must not lack money.â
After thinking about it, Harmony realized that not only did the man not lack money, but he was even exuding a noble, glamorous, and opulent temperament. Besides that, his smile was also very charming.
âDid Reuben cause trouble for you just now?â
âNope, but Iâve already moved on.â Harmony got the chance to retaliate harshly against Reuben. She felt grateful for the mysterious man who helped her get back at Reuben.
âCheer up. There are plenty of men out there. Once youâve established yourself in this industry, it would be easy for you to snag a rich young man,â Sera comforted Harmony.
On the other hand, Ezekiel sat in the room, looking at the empty wine glass. His mind was filled with images of the young woman just now, including her bright and lovely appearance. It was as though her laugh could automatically make his day.
Rubbing his temples, Ezekiel wondered, Whatâs this? Why am I suddenly attracted to that lady? Forget it. Itâs just a coincidence, and I wonât see her again.
Flintstone Residence.
Shirley was looking at the guest list while Zacharias had become even more swamped. That was because he not only had to work, but he also had to prepare for their upcoming wedding. Compared to him, all Shirley had to do was continue with her days and await the day she would become his bride.
When she was about to fall asleep, she heard the sound of a car from outside and instantly woke up.
She approached the French windows and saw the manâs convoy. At that point, she was no longer drowsy and ran downstairs to greet him.
The carâs door opened, and Zachariasâ handsome and charming figure appeared. In his hand was a bouquet of fresh flowers and a bag. Just as he pushed the door open, he immediately saw the pajama-
clad young woman coming to greet him.
âItâs already so late, but you still brought flowers!â Shirley accepted the flowers with a smile, feeling happy inside.
Once she took the flowers, Zacharias wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her forehead, âIâm sorry that I came home late again.â
