At this moment, Harmony stood at the door of Room 8888 with Reuben keeping a close eye on her
from behind. That resulted in her having no choice but to pretend that she was here to sell herself.
Although she was afraid to knock on the door and had no idea what kind of person was inside, she felt
like there was a force pushing her,pelling her to go through with this.
Secretly taking a deep breath, she rang the doorbell.
In the meantime, Reuben’s fists were already clenched tightly. He was eager to find out who her
benefactor was, curious about their appearance and status in the entertainment industry.
At the same time, he couldn’t help but imagine that the person might be an older or perhaps a wealthy
yet ordinary-looking man. Either way, the idea of the woman he’d held dear for five years sharing that
intimate moment for the first time was like a painful stab to his heart.
Harmony’s mind was in a mess because she knew the words she had just spoken to the sc*mbag on
the phone had deeply hurt him. But what if the man inside opened the door and asked who she was?
Wouldn’t that expose her? Then, she would end up being nothing more than a joke.
How she hoped the man inside the room wouldn’t say anything when he opened the door. That way,
they could at least pretend to know each other when she entered the door and prevent the sc*mbag
from watching her make a fool of herself.
On the other hand, Ezekiel had just returned to the hotel, taking off his coat and unbuttoning his shirt.
Just as he was about to sit down for a ss of red wine and rx, he heard his doorbell ringing.
Intrigued, he pondered who might be seeking him out at this hour and approached the door. When he
looked through the peephole and saw a young woman standing outside, he nearly forgot he had a
gemstone that he had found.
It seemed like the owner had found him. A faint smile yed on his lips, finding it quite interesting. The
image of the tearful eyes that he saw at the airport shed through his mind. There seemed to be a
mysterious force tugging him, making him eager to know the story behind those teary eyes.
So, he reached out and twisted the doorknob, swinging the door open.
Outside the door, Harmony and Reuben stood in stunned silence for a few seconds. Her eyes widened
as she realized she hadn’t paid much attention to Ezekiel’s appearance at the airport and wasn’t in the
mood to scrutinize the video closely. As a result, she wasn’t expecting the man to look so
breathtakingly handsome in person.
Reuben was also stunned. He assumed that her benefactor would be an elderly or a wealthy but
average-looking person. Still, he never expected him to be a handsome young man with an impressive
physique.
“You’re here!” Ezekiel smiled.
She blinked, feeling a sudden urge to retaliate even more against Reuben. Ignoring her pride, she
impulsively pressed Ezekiel against the door frame. Her slender hands circled his neck as she stood on
her tiptoes. Then, she directed her soft, red lips toward his sexy, thin ones and kissed him.
Harmony’s soft lips, carrying a hint of sweet fragrance, left an imprint on Ezekiel’s slightly cool mouth.
He also tensed up. His mind went nk for a few seconds, like someone overwhelmed by a forced
kiss.
“Harmony, how could you? I thought I betrayed you and still felt guilty about it, but I never expected that
you had already hooked up with someone else. Shame on you!” Reubenpletely lost his
After Harmony let go of the man she had just kissed without consent, she turned to Reuben. “You’re
right. I’ve dealt with sc*mbags like you. You’re not the only one who knows how to charm those social
superiors. There are guys interested in me too, you know…”

Listening to their conversation, Ezekiel finally grasped the reason behind the teary eyes he had seen at
the airport. It seemed like her boyfriend had betrayed her. Besides that, she had used him to retaliate
against the sc*mbag. Since she forced him to y along with her, he could try to y the part. After all,
he hadn’t gotten enough of the kiss just now.
