So, he knew she was going to receive the award.
“Thank you, Mr. Weiss.” Harmony accepted the award and nodded at him gratefully.
“Let’s take a photo together! Please look at the camera,” the host suggested insightfully. Ezekiel placed his arm
lightly around Harmony’s shoulder, and both of them smiled at the camera.
The camera captured their moment. They were a pair of enviable individuals.
Meanwhile, Catalina was in the restroom as she instructed her internet ghostwriters, “Go all out and attack her. Find
any faults from tonight and use them against her.”
Even before Harmony had left the award ceremony, attacks against her had already started online. First, they

high-ranking individual.
Following that, some online provocateurs released chat records that seemed to be from insiders. They stated that
Harmony wanted to move to the front row, got warned by the staff, and had to return to her original seat.
There were also claims that as a junior, she disrespected her seniors, and the reason she won was not because she
outperformed others in the nomination but because she schemed to snatch away the award behind the scenes.
These three accusations were enough to tarnish Harmony’s reputation thoroughly, and they created an impression
of a newcomer using any means to climb to the top. Of course, Harmony’s fans tried to counter these claims
online, but the sheer number of internet ghostwriters drowned out their voices.
Harmony and Ezekiel stepped out of the award ceremony into the evening breeze. She appeared stunning tonight.
Perhaps it was because she received an award, or perhaps it was this man’s presence. Tonight, she exuded a
radiant charm like that of the moonlight.
He couldn’t help but look at her when he stood on the steps outside the event venue. She seemed to have many
things she wanted to say to him, yet she lacked the courage because she couldn’t grasp his true intentions toward
her.
Was it affection? Or just assistance out of kindness?
Therefore, she maintained a polite demeanor. “Mr. Weiss, thank you for presenting me with the award tonight.
You’ve given me an unforgettable evening.”
“Likewise, I’m honored to present you with this trophy. Of course, you truly deserve it,” Ezekiel said.
Harmony pursed her lips and had a question that had been troubling her. She didn’t know if she should ask him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Weiss… I have a question, but I’m not sure if I should ask you.”
“Go ahead! I’ll answer any questions truthfully.” Ezekiel raised an eyebrow.
“Was I able to get this award tonight because of your connections?” Harmony asked curiously because she never
harbored hopes of winning tonight as she knew how exceptional the other works were.
He folded his arms, then shook his head confidently. “It wasn’t because of my connections. I only received the
notification to present the trophy.”
Harmony’s beautiful eyes widened slightly. “Really?”
“You are outstanding, and you deserve this award,” he comforted her.
