What Ezekiel said terrified Harmony, and she hastily rejected the offer. “There’s no need
for that! Don’t give me anything. My home has enough space for the gifts. Don’t give me a
villa. I won’t accept it anyway.”
Her refusal of his offer made Ezekiel grin. She was so adorable.
“Okay. We’ll discuss it another day.”
“Not even in the future. I really can’t accept it in good conscience. I don’t even know how
to repay you for the gifts you’ve given me today,” she said with her face twisted in
frustration.
“I don’t need you to repay me anything,” he replied with a chuckle.
“I want to, though,” she shot back.
“How do you want to repay me then?” He was strangely curious.
She instantly recalled Sera’s comment about giving herself to him. Her face went bright
red as she stammered, “I-I don’t know yet.”
“Okay. We’ll talk about it once you’ve thought about it. There’s no rush.” He chuckled once

“Thank you for today.”
“There’s no need for formalities between us. I’ll talk to you when I’m free. I have another
meeting to attend,” he said as he was still stuck in the conference room.
“Very well. I’ll let you get back to work.” She hung up and sighed as she stared at her
phone. The sudden onslaught of ludicrous wealth was making her feel rather faint.
Just as she was about to settle down and relax, her phone rang once more. She turned to
look at it, wondering if it was Ezekiel.
It was not. Instead, it was Sera. “Hey, Sera.”
“The Apocalypse’ is flying in for their promotional tour. Girl, you’ve been invited to attend
with the entire main cast!”
“What? Are you serious, Sera?” Harmony was beside herself with excitement. It was a
great honor.
“Absolutely. Also, you’re placed quite prominently on the posters. This is just a guess, but
I’m guessing Mr. Weiss has dragged the entire cast over for their tour just to promote
you.”
Harmony was already overwhelmed by all of Ezekiel’s sweet gestures. Hence, she was
dumbfounded when she heard that he did this for her as well.
“Just how am I meant to repay him, Sera?”
“Honey, it’s real simple. Here’s all you need to do. After this tour, don’t hesitate to put on
your best spaghetti-strap dress. Then, knock on his door in the middle of the night. I
guarantee that whatever gift you’re planning won’t be able to top that.”
“Sera, be serious,” Harmony retorted. “Can we please exercise some restraint?”
“If you won’t do it, I will!”
“You…” Harmony burst out laughing, utterly exasperated. “Stop fooling around, Sera. Help
me think of a plan. I genuinely feel like I owe him way too much.”
“Well, it’s up to you. I think Mr. Weiss is only doing this because he likes you. Do I need to
tell you what he wants? Reuben didn’t lay a hand on you, right? Be honest with me. Are
you still a…”
Harmony blushed. She had never discussed this with anyone else before. Nevertheless,
she decided to be frank today. “Yes. I’m still…”
“That’s good enough. Give him the best. That is the perfect way to repay him.”

As someone who worked in the entertainment industry, Harmony knew full well that many
business deals were done just for that thing.
Job opportunities and connections were, frankly speaking, all done for sex. It was just a
transaction where the other person’s body was the price.
Naturally, she did not want to think he was that shallow. Yet, she also couldn’t deny that
she wouldn’t hesitate if he needed something like that. Right now, she couldn’t help but
feel super glad that she had never allowed Reuben to go beyond first base. That sc*mbag
didn’t deserve it.
Her decision had allowed her to keep her body for the man she loved in the future. She
also knew that repaying a man with sex would make her seem frivolous. So, she was quite
stumped.
How else could she make it up to him besides offering herself?
Then again, she would probably want to be kicked off to Mars if he rejected her after she
approached him.
“The event is this Saturday. Don’t overthink things. I can feel your brain overcooking. Wrap
up this tour before spending your time thinking about this stuff.”
“Got it,” Harmony replied.
“The cast and crew think highly of you. So, we need to be well-prepared and not let them
down.”
