Putting his water down, Ezekiel approached her and placed both hands on her shoulders while comforting her with his deep voice, “Harmony, you didn’t do anything wrong, so you don’t need to apologize to anyone. Just be yourself and ignore what others say.” Those words of comfort were just what Harmony needed at this moment. Tears suddenly filled her eyes as she threw herself into Ezekiel’s arms. Right now, she just wanted to cry out loud. She was grateful to have met him and regretted not seeing Reuben’s true nature back then. He was a bad person.

“Please don’t believe what Reuben said just now. We haven't crossed that line since the day we got together. I-” Harmony found it difficult to continue because it was difficult for her to bring up such matters with the man she liked.
Meanwhile, Ezekiel also knew she was not good at explaining such things, so he cupped her face gently and wiped away her tears with his thumb. “I trust you’ He had already learned about all this since he accidentally answered Reuben’s call the other day. Ezekiel was brought up in an open-minded family, so when choosing a woman to be with, he wouldn't care about her past.

“If I say yes, would you think I'm unreserved for allowing a man to stay the night?” She raised her head and asked him in a foolish but adorable way.
Ezekiel chuckled. “No, because I'm the man who is going to stay here tonight.” Laughing, Harmony threw herself into his arms. Right then, the negative emotions Reuben brought up in her had disappeared entirely. That was because the man before her had a healing presence. It was like he could soothe her sufferings and teach her to becsomeone with a stable temper.
At that moment, Ezekiel’s phone rang. He picked it up and walked toward the balcony. “Hello, Miles.” “My dear Mr. Weiss, where are you now? Why was your car impounded by the traffic police? Are you okay? How am | going to explain things to your parents if something happens to you?” Miles’ anxious voice cthrough the phone.
“I'm fine. I'm not going back to the hotel tonight.” “Wow. Where will you be staying tonight?” Miles asked from the other end.
It was fortunate that Ezekiel was in a good mood. On usual days, Miles would be reprimanded if he dared to inquire about Ezekiel’s private life, but today, Ezekiel responded, “Anyway, don’t disturbtonight, no matter what it is.” “Even if the company goes bankrupt?” “Then, let it be,” Ezekiel answered and hung up the phone.
