Night of Destiny

The shop assistant was taken aback. “Ms. Martin, this bag comes in five colors. Are you certain you want all of them?”

Catalina couldn’t let Harmony assume she couldn’t afford them. She held her head high and said, “Yes, I want to buy them as gifts.”

Meanwhile, Harmony glanced at the price tag, and a smirk appeared on her face. She then walked over and stopped in front of another bag. “Sera, you have a lot of stuff. I think this larger one would be perfect for you!” she suggested, and Sera nodded. “Yes, I like this one too. Let’s buy it! I’ll pay. One for each of us.”

Catalina’s expression started to change. She suddenly realized that Harmony and Sera were putting on an act while she assumed Harmony would lose interest and leave. Little did she know that Harmony would pull this trick.

Harmony also noticed that Catalina had seen through her plan. So, she dropped the act and said to Catalina, “Ms. Martin, you’ve selected quite a few there. I’m curious to see if you’re really going to pay. You wouldn’t secretly return them after we leave, would you?”

Catalina was proud, and Harmony had taken advantage of that.

“As if I’d do that! Do you think I can’t afford a few bags?!” Catalina knew that Harmony was setting a trap for her, but she couldn’t bring herself to refuse. Instead, she kept falling into it.

“Of course, I know you can afford it, so why don’t you buy them and prove it to me? If you don’t pay, I’ll take them.” Harmony provoked her, feeling over the moon even if she didn’t buy the bags herself.

The shop assistant, hoping for a high commission, chimed in, “Ms. Martin, I’ll calculate your total right away.”

At that, she and her colleague quickly calculated the total and said to Catalina, “Ms. Martin, we’ve calculated your total. It comes to 89,750 dollars. Would you like us to deduct it from your balance?”

Catalina turned to Harmony in response and said, “See! I have enough money in my account to buy these bags. Don’t underestimate me.”

Harmony sneered, “I’m not underestimating you, but what are you doing standing there for? Pay up!”

The cashier immediately asked, “Ms. Martin, shall we proceed with the payment?”

Catalina casually replied, “Go ahead!”

The shop assistant quickly deducted the amount and completed the transaction. Harmony heard the sound of the receipt being printed and couldn’t hide her smile. She said to Sera, “Let’s check out another shop, Sera.”

Sera nodded in agreement. “Let’s go!” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

The two left, leaving Catalina with a gloomy face. She felt like she had been played and was the big loser.

Once they were outside, Harmony couldn’t help but laugh. “Oh, my gosh, what a day! I can’t believe I got Catalina to spend nearly 90 thousand! This is even more satisfying than buying a bag for myself!”

“You can say that again! Catalina is just too arrogant. She thinks she will never have to worry about money, but I heard her mother’s company lost a lot of money in a bet with some investors. She still can’t change her extravagant spending habits.” After visiting a few more stores, they headed back. Ezekiel’s car was waiting outside Sera’s apartment. After Harmony got in, she was grabbed by the waist, and before she knew it, a passionate kiss was planted on her.

Harmony blushed, and her heart raced. Ezekiel’s way of expressing affection was still rather open, so Harmony was often treated to his passionate displays.

“Did you have fun today?” Ezekiel asked. He had been busy with the company’s relocation the whole day and hadn’t been able to contact her properly.

“Yes! I had a lot of fun.” Harmony replied with a smile. How could she not be happy after tricking Catalina?!

At the same time, Catalina was still out while the bags she purchased earlier had been delivered home, and the recipient was her mother, who turned beyond grimly as she looked at the eight bags on the couch. She grabbed her phone in anger and dialed Catalina’s number.
