Night of Destiny (Anastasia Tillman)

Chapter 2657

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, compelling her to go through with this.

Secretly taking a deep breath, she rang the doorbell. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

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 glass of red wine and relax, 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 played on his lips, finding it quite interesting. The

image of the tearful eyes that he saw at the airport flashed 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 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 blank 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!” Reuben completely lost his

composure, pointing at her and cursing. To him, she was the betrayer. She had hooked up with a

handsome and wealthy man. Right then, he felt jealousy and anger surged within him.

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 play along with her, he could try to play the part. After all,

he hadn’t gotten enough of the kiss just now.
