She was extremely nervous while holding onto Cindy just now. “Mr. Weiss, my legs are shaking. What


    should I do?” she asked. She was not being dramatic, as her legs were shaking like jelly at that


    moment.


    Ezekiel lowered his head and chuckled. “What else can you do? I’ll carry you,” he replied before


    scooping her up in his arms.


    Harmony buried her face in his chest, deciding not to care about whatever was happening outside. In


    any case, she felt exhrated right then.


    At that moment, many reporters were around, naturally chasing after the couple to take pictures and


    thus capturing the thrilling scene of her saving someone. Due to that, all media outlets were


    commending her brave act of rescuing a person. Even the most authoritative TV stations also shared


    the news.


    This was something she had not anticipated. Her only thought back then was to save Cindy; she had


    never intended to publicize her actions or boost her poprity because of this incident.


    Sera breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Harmony being carried by Ezekiel.


    After cing Harmony in her MPV, the man stood by the door, asking, “Are your legs still shaking?”


    “They’re much better now. Thank you, Mr. Weiss.


    “You did great tonight, but don’t do it again next time,” said Ezekiel sternly in all seriousness.


    She blinked innocently.


    Seeing her disheveled long hair, he could not help but reach out to smooth it. “Go back and rest early.


    Don’t think about anything tonight. Just rx.”


    “Okay!” She pursed her lips in a smile. With him around, it seemed like she did not need to think about


    anything. Fame, live interviews… She could put all of these out of her mind.


    Sera instructed the driver to start driving.


    Catalina spotted Harmony’s MPV, too. At the same time, she saw Ezekiel standing on the roadside,


    seeing Harmony off. Sitting in her car, she was immediately pissed off by what she saw.


    She had thought tonight’s incident would make Harmony aughingstock, but contrary to her


    expectations, she ended up not only receiving praise but also gaining Ezekiel’s protection. Now, the


    inte was abuzz with reports of tonight’s incident. She gained sympathy thanks to the TV station


    deliberately giving her a hard time, while her act of saving someone drew praise from everyone.


    “Damn it! She reaped all the benefits,” she cursed. I’ve turned a winning hand into a lousy one. Now, all


    she could do was silence Ruby and forbid her from giving her away. Also, she had to pressure Ruby


    into admitting that all of this was her doing.


    A momentter, when Ruby showed up in her car, she tossed a bank card to her at once. “Here’s 150


    thousand. Own up to this, and don’t escte things further.”


    Ruby was greedy, though. She could own up to this, but she wanted more. “Catalina, it’s not quite right


    to give me only 150 thousand for such a big deal, don’t you think?”


    “How much do you want, then?”


    “At least this much.” Ruby extended her palm.


    “You want 500 thousand for just a script?”


    “It’s not that simple anymore. Someone has almost died from this. Catalina, you wouldn’t want me to


    give you away, right?”


    Despite her bitter reluctance, Catalina had no choice but to give Ruby 500 thousand to settle the


    matter.

    Ruby then went to the TV station and admitted her guilt. She was fired instantly. On top of that, she had


    to pay damages to the TV station for tonight’s incident, which totaled exactly 500 thousand. She was


    bbergasted right away. “Sir, how am I supposed to pay such arge sum?!”


    “Do you think this money will go to our TV station? It’s the sum we have to pay Harmony in


    compensation!”


    “What? You mean this money goes to her?”


    “That’s right! We just spoke to her agent. She agrees not to make a fuss about this, but we have to pay


    them 500 thousand inpensation. This is your fault. If you refuse to pay the sum, we’ll have no


    choice but to have you jailed for a couple of years.”


    Ruby was so angry that she nearly fainted as a result. Consequently, Catalina’s money ended up going


    to Harmony instead.


    Meanwhile, Harmony was in her apartment, having a cup of tea to calm her nerves after the incident.


    She was content to hear Sera settle things in private with the TV station. As this matter could not be


    blown out of proportion, it was better to resolve it quietly.


    “That’s settled, then. Harmony, we’ve negotiated a deal with the TV station. They’ll pay us 500


    thousand inpensation, and we’ll stop pursuing the matter.”
