Chapter 2471
In this life, I’ll only be content once I’ve slept with you. Sera had already succumbed to slumber as the night unfolded in the hotel. Meanwhile, Harmony found herself grappling with insomnia. With Ezekiel staying in the next room, the thought of him just beyond the wall made her wonder what he was doing.
Is he asleep?
Then, she unexpectedly caught a faint sound of running water from the adjacent room. The hotel’s soundproofing was poor, so the sound of someone showering next door had somehow seeped through the cracks.
A soft chuckle escaped Harmony’s lips. Then, she glanced at the time. It was already 1.00AM. Yet, this man was only taking a shower now.
What’s he doing? Could it be… A mischievous notion crept into Harmony’s mind. Her cheeks flushed with warmth as her mind ran wild. Still, she couldn’t halt the swirling thoughts and vivid scenarios that danced through her imagination.
Ah! Men and their antics were no mystery to her. This was also thanks to her early entry into the industry and acting career.
Can it be that this man is indulging himself?
Harmony quickly reined in her wandering thoughts as fantasizing about him in this way felt a tad inappropriate.
In the next room, Ezekiel was indeed taking a shower. He had just wrapped up a meticulous review of the latest investment plan. So, time had slipped through his fingers when he was immersed in his work. Before he knew it, it had already gotten this late.
As for Harmony, she wasn’t sure when she had finally drifted off to sleep. She was entangled in a dream, soaring through the air and eventually floating into Ezekiel’s window, peering in just as he prepared to shed his garments.
Just as she was about to see what Ezekiel had under the sheets, her soul was forcefully dragged back into her body. Sera had shaken her in an attempt to rouse her from her slumber.
“Harmony, wake up. It’s late. We need to head over for the photo shoot.”
How could Harmony bear to wake up just like that? Her eyelids remained shut as she pleaded, “Sera, give me another two minutes. Let me sleep a bit more, just a bit.” After that, she immediately plunged back into the fantasy, trying to return to that enticing scene.
Just as she teetered on the brink of once again reveling in the allure of that handsome physique, Sera, unsparing in her resolve, heartlessly shook her awake.
“You don’t have time to sleep! Get your butt out of the bed! My goodness! You still need to get dressed!”
Harmony blinked her eyes open, sitting up as disappointment overwhelmed her. She was somewhat baffled about her current surroundings as she tried to make sense of reality once more. That dream from last night really wore her out. It felt like she struggled all night just to glimpse Ezekiel’s physique- what an utterly absurd dream.
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted them. Sera blurted in confusion, “Could it be Mr. Weiss from next door?”
“Ah!” Harmony swiftly burrowed back into the covers and buried her face in the blanket. She urgently told Sera, “Whatever you do, please don’t let him in, Sera!”
She didn’t want him to see her in this ghastly state early in the morning.
Sera opened the door in amusement. Sure enough, the refreshingly charming Ezekiel was standing right there. She greeted him with a warm smile, “Mr. Weiss, good morning.”
“Good morning. I have something to attend to. Here’s my business card. Let Miss Mayo know I’ll see her on the red carpet at 3.00PM.”
“Of course, thank you so much, Mr. Weiss. Take care.” Sera happily accepted his business card and saw him off to the elevator. Then, she joyfully kissed the golden business card after watching him leave. Now, neither of them would face the embarrassment of getting chased off the red carpet.
Sera quickly scanned Ezekiel’s business card, a simple display of a Chinese company’s name with ‘Ezekiel Weiss’ in parentheses below it. Beneath it, a personal phone number added an air of significance despite its simple design.
Harmony naturally overheard Ezekiel’s words. His deep, magnetic voice resonated forcefully in her heart. As she reflected on her dream from the previous night, she couldn’t help but find her attitude inappropriate.
“Wake up, my lady! Look, Mr. Weiss personally gave you his business card. He’s looking forward to your red carpet journey with him this afternoon.” Sera dragged her off the bed. At this moment, Sera couldn’t help but wish she were 20 years younger. Ah, youth and romance!
Harmony took the golden card that felt more like lacquered gold than paper.
“Sera, who is he exactly?” Harmony asked curiously.
“Isn’t there writing on it? It should be the name of his company. Still, I have to confess, I’ve never heard of this company’s name before,” Sera admitted, her knowledge limited even to globally renowned
