My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) -
Chapter 2695
Ruby's eyes lit up at the mention of five hundred thousand. It was a huge temptation for her.
"Tell me your plan directly, Catalina!"
"Switch Harmony's script and make the host read the script I gave you," Catalina explained.
Ruby hesitated, understanding that Catalina intended to tamper with Harmony's interview. "I'll get fired if I do this," she said. "The five hundred thousand is your compensation. If you refuse, I can replace someone else, Catalina stated.
As soon as Ruby heard this, she quickly agreed. "I'll do it, Catalina. I'll help you."
Catalina handed her the script and said, "I'll give you half now. Once the job's done, I'll pay the rest. No room for failure; I won't let you off otherwise."
After hearing her half-threatening words, Ruby immediately replied, "Don't worry. I have my way."
Catalina smiled and couldn't wait to see Harmony embarrass herself.
At noon, Harmony had lunch with the former crew director. Now, she had already received a script handed to her. It was the leading role, and she had collaborated with him before and trusted his skills. Thus, she agreed to take on his new script.
At the airport, a giant private plane landed, and two people disembarked. Ezekiel had just returned just in time for the Presgrave Family's wedding in two days. He accompanied his mother out of the airport and returned to his grandparents' home. In the evening, Ezekiel dressed casually and came downstairs. He saw Martha was watching a movie. Due to their age, they liked watching classic dramas. Ezekiel looked at the TV and noticed Harmony's figure. He smiled and sat next to his grandmother as they watched the movie together.
Martha pointed at the actress, Harmony, and said, "I like this girl. She acts so well."
He shifted his gaze to Harmony. Her various displays of dresses were pleasing to the eye. Looking at her, Martha couldn't help but admire. "I also liked wearing these kinds of dresses when I was young. However, she wore better than me."
"Grandma, I can introduce you to her if you want."
"Oh! Do you know her?" she asked in surprise.
He smiled and nodded. "We're friends."
"That's great. I really want to meet her! Of course, you don't have to make it too formal.
We can just have a meal together someday," Martha said. She couldn't believe she could enjoy the feeling of being a fan at her age.
"Okay. I'll arrange it." Ezekiel was determined to fulfill her request.
Soon, it was Friday. Due to Harmony's busy schedule recently, she felt sleep-deprived. After finishing her lunch, she had some time to sleep as she aimed to be in good condition for the 6.00PM evening program. As she drifted into sleep, she had a dream. In her dream, she saw Ezekiel. She joyfully chased after him in the crowd, but she couldn't catch up to him no matter how fast she was. Although he seemed right in front of her, he didn't seem to hear her calls from behind as he continued to chat with others. It was an exhausting dream, but Harmony was unwilling to wake up. She was determined to greet him somehow. "Ezekiel! Ezekiel!" She shouted in her dream. Suddenly, an otherworldly ringtone sounded. Just as she felt annoyed, she suddenly realized she might be dreaming. Without opening her eyes, she reached for her phone and pressed the answer button with a sense of familiarity.
"Hello! Who's this?" she mumbled.
A charming and husky voice came from the other end. "Are you sleeping, Miss Mayo?"
In that split second, Harmony's eyes snapped open, and she moved the phone away to check the caller ID. When she saw who
it was, she was wide awake instantly. It was Ezekiel, not the man from her dream.
"Yes. I'm sorry, Mr. Weiss. Have you returned?" Harmony asked excitedly.
"I'm back. Are you tired from working?" Ezekiel asked with concern.
