Harmony was listening to the speech attentively when her phone pinged with a message. She glanced at it subconsciously and saw the message from Reuben, which made her grit her teeth in anger without replying.

‘I thought you were pure and clean in the past. I never expected you’d be a courtesan in front of your sugar daddy! How many times are you servicing him at night?”

These words were truly disgusting.

After she read the message, her pretty face flushed with anger. She gripped her phone tightly, bit her lip, and chose not to respond.

Shameless people like Reuben would only get more aggressive once they receive more attention.

Suddenly, she felt that Catalina was not her enemy but rather someone filtering out the scum for her. Fortunately, Catalina took him away; otherwise, she would never have discovered his true nature.

Seeing that Harmony was not responding, Reuben lost interest in humiliating her.

Arabella tugged at her neckline intentionally while saying to Ezekiel, “Oh my! It’s hot in here! Is the air conditioning even on? I’m sweating.” After speaking, she deliberately leaned her ample upper body toward Ezekiel’s side. If he turned his head, he would surely notice it.

However, he seemed oblivious and was entirely focused on the program onstage, paying no attention to her.

She felt bored and then glanced at Harmony jealously.

After the speech on stage concluded, the awarding of team awards began. Harmony heard her crew winning another award, so she was genuinely happy. The director personally went on stage to receive the prize, and Ezekiel leaned over to praise, “Great job! Your team has won another award.”

She also responded happily, “Yes! I’m happy for our director.”

“Do you think you’ll win an award tonight?” He could not help but ask.

Harmony had a good sense of self-awareness, so she shook her head and said, “The works tonight are all too outstanding. I know I don’t have the strength to win an award yet.”

Ezekiel smiled while waiting to unveil the answer later.

Various awards were presented one after another, and Catalina’s crew won the Best Design Award. When she went on stage to receive it, she acted pretentiously by taking the microphone from the host and saying a few words.

Soon, the awards escalated from smaller to more significant categories. The first to be presented was the individual achievement awards. The most eye-catching awards of the night were the Golden Peony Award and the Black Hawk Award, equivalent to Best Actress and Best Actor awards.

Eventually, almost all the awards were presented, and it was around 8.30PM. The most anticipated award in this circle was about to be revealed.

Soon, the nominated films for the night appeared on the big screen, and Harmony saw her movie listed there, exciting her.

Being nominated was already a recognition. After that, it was the thrilling moment of unveiling the winner.

“Next, we will announce tonight’s biggest award. First up is the winner of the Golden Peony Award. Who could it be? Who will win this award?” The host on stage began to stir up the atmosphere. Even the music was changed to a more drumming rhythm, stimulating everyone’s nerves and making everyone excited and nervous.

All the female artists nominated tonight were excited as they covered their red lips and fantasized about winning the award for themselves.

“Next, we invite our guest of honor to come on stage and reveal the answer! We invite Mr. Ezekiel, President of the Weiss Group International, to be our guest presenter. Let us welcome him.” When the host read this name, it sounded exceptionally powerful.

Harmony also turned her head in astonishment to look at Ezekiel onstage. Oh my! He’s the one presenting the award.

“Wait, it’s you!” She was genuinely surprised because this man had not mentioned this before his arrival.

Before Ezekiel stood up, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, “See you in a bit.”

After saying that, he straightened his suit and got up. In the beam of light falling on him, he looked like a perfectly walking piece of art that was elegant and captivating as he stepped onto the stage.
