“I’m sorry," Harmony apologized instinctively for the displeasing incident with Reuben just now.
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.
Ezekiel was like a comforting flame.
He gently patted her and gave her warmth and strength.
After crying for a while, she understood that she had done nothing wrong and she didn’t need to care about Reuben’s hurtful words.
She just had to be herself.
However, her fear was that Ezekiel might have believed in Reuben’s lies and that she would lose him.
“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.
Instead, he would imagine what their future would be like.
Upon hearing that he trusted her, Harmony was so elated that she started shedding tears again.
She tightly pressed her lips together, feeling grateful like never before because no one had ever shown her such unconditional trust.
“Stop crying, or your eyes will swell."
Ezekiel grabbed some tissues from the table and gently wiped away her tears.
Her eyes looked beautiful whenever she smiled.
He wanted to see her happy, not sad.
She pursed her lips and smiled.
However, the smile in her teary eyes made her look quite pitiful.
Suddenly feeling his heart fluttering, Ezekiel couldn’t hold back from leaning down to kiss her red, soft lips.
