Ezekiel took out his wallet and pulled out a black card before handing it to Harmony. “Take
it and swipe it however you like. Buy as many watches as you want.”
With that, he picked up his phone. “I’ll make another call.”
He was leaving this situation for Harmony to handle herself. As Harmony held Ezekiel’s
black card… It truly felt as if her status had suddenly skyrocketed.
She understood his intention. She waved the black card in front of Arielle and asked, “Do
you think I can’t afford it?”
Then, she turned to the attendant. “Please make the watch strap for me.”
“Sure, Miss Mayo. We’ll make it for you right away.” The attendant was also delighted with
the turn of events. The way wealthy people argued was truly straight to the point. All it
took was one swipe of a black card, and it would shut even the most arrogant rich girls up.
“Can this card be used?” Arielle immediately became suspicious. However, she recognized
that this black card wasn’t something anyone could obtain. She wasn’t even qualified to
own one despite her family’s wealth.
This was an international card with unlimited spending limits. Hence, it naturally had

verification.
“Arielle, this card seems to be a genuine black card!”
Harmony said to the attendant, “Swipe it for Miss Rowland! Let her see whether this is the
real deal.”
The attendant took the credit card machine, entered the amount, and briskly swiped the
card without further ado. It instantly showed the transaction was successful and printed
the receipt.
Arielle and her friends were left in shame. They had just been mocking Harmony for being
poor. Alas, now they had no choice but to shut their mouths in response.
“Are you satisfied now, Miss Rowland?” Harmony took back the black card and looked up
at Arielle.
Arielle was biting her lip in anger. “You… where did you get such a wealthy boyfriend?”
“That’s none of your business.” Harmony raised an eyebrow. Still, her sweaty palm that
was holding the hand betrayed her anxiety. Dear Lord, take it away from me!
It was her first time seeing a black card, and now she was holding it in her hand. Even
though it was light, she could still feel an imaginary burden falling upon her shoulders like
a ton of bricks!
“We’ll see about that! I’ll remember this,” Arielle said as she wanted to give herself an
out.
As Arielle flounced off, Harmony felt herself gradually relax. She stepped outside and saw
Ezekiel standing there. It was just as she expected. He was not making a call but resting.
She walked over and handed him the card, utterly grateful. “Here’s your card. Thank you
for helping me out just now.”
She extended the black card to him. Alas, the man showed no intention of taking it.
Instead, he merely looked at her.
She blinked and wriggled the card before him, saying, “Please keep the card! It’s too
conspicuous.”
When Ezekiel saw that she was getting worked up, he finally reached out, took back the
card, and said, “Next time you encounter such a situation, just call me. Don’t let others

“It’s okay. This kind of thing isn’t new to me,” Harmony replied casually.
Ezekiel heard her words and felt a pang of heartache. He patted her gently. “I won’t let
anyone look down on you like that again.”
Harmony was momentarily surprised. Then, she raised her head and smiled at him
gratefully. “Thank you. You’ve already helped me a lot.”
At that moment, the attendant approached while holding the watch that had been
prepared for Harmony. “Miss Mayo, your watch is ready.”
Harmony took it, checked it again, and handed it to Ezekiel. “Take it to your friend! I’m
sure she’ll love it.”
Ezekiel took it and said to her, “Wait here. I’ll have the store deliver it to my friend’s
place.”
He went back in once he said that. So, Harmony stood by the railing with her mask on and
waited for him. After a while, he left the store. They had somehow spent the entire
afternoon shopping.
“Mr. Weiss, it’s getting late. Would you like to return?” Harmony asked him.
Ezekiel nodded after glancing at his watch. “Yes. I should go back. I’ll send you home.”
She didn’t want to trouble him further. “It’s okay. I’ll take a cab home.”
