Night of Destiny

They seemed to be treating Harmony as a guest of honor. Harmony felt her heart pumping furiously. As these big shots smiled and raised a toast to her, Harmony felt dumbfounded, but she pretended to be calm. She started wondering once more who this Mr. Weiss really was. NôvelDrama.Org content.

Once the guests had all arrived, the runway began at 4.30PM. Harmony had only heard of this fashion show before. The famous and powerful of all nations took pride in being able to watch this fashion show. Anyone who could show up here would make it to the headlines back in their homeland, and it was enough material for the media to pick up for a while.

After the lights were dimmed, Harmony felt a bit more at ease. She stole a glance at the man beside her. The light was shining on his face, and his profile was so perfect that it was captivating. He was regal yet aloof.

Harmony was still staring, and the guy had turned his attention from the runway to her, and their eyes met. Harmony felt her heart skipping a beat, and then she put on a stiff smile. Ezekiel smiled as well, and he turned from an aloof gentleman into a warm and welcoming guy.

Harmony felt her heart getting tickled by something, and butterflies fluttered in her stomach. She turned her attention back to the runway, watching the mesmerizing models. She dashed her earlier thoughts. There are a ton of pretty women in this world. I’m nothing compared to them. I was just lucky Mr. Weiss wanted to help me. All I have to feel is gratitude. Nothing else. Or else I’d be getting myself into a rut.

Even though she was only 23 years old, Harmony had gone through too much, and she saw through society’s true colors. She knew the unwritten rules and knew how to protect herself. For example, men like Ezekiel were good to admire from afar, but if she got too close, she would be burned.

Catalina didn’t even bother with the show. She was staring at Ezekiel, watching his every move and expression. She hid her love within. She’d ignored Reuben, and Reuben knew she was watching another guy, but he had no right to be jealous. Catalina could dump him anytime she wanted.

He tried to put an arm around Catalina’s shoulder, but Catalina smacked his hand away subtly, much to his annoyance. His attention was on Harmony, of course. For the first time, he thought she radiated the air of a princess. Is it because of her seat tonight? Or is it because a ton of big shots are around her, so she looks more regal? Tonight, Reuben saw Harmony in a new light, and his heart was beating with desire. More than before, for he had never gotten his hands on Harmony.

Harmony covered her mouth and yawned. She still felt cold. Just when she was going to rub her nose, someone draped a suit over her. It was Ezekiel’s, and it was warm.

She softly said, “Thank you.”

“Don’t catch a cold,” answered Ezekiel gently.

“Yeah.” Harmony smiled. Her makeup looked lively that night, and she looked like a blooming flower in summer when she smiled. Something stirred within Ezekiel when she smiled. Her looks are my cup of tea. Especially her twinkling eyes. Her eyes were clear and innocent when she wasn’t smiling, but whenever she smiled, they would look like moons, captivating and attractive. Her lips were like luscious petals of flowers, attracting the sight of those who saw them. Ezekiel was still reliving the kisses last time. He wanted more.
