Night of Destiny

Sera went to the surveillance room and watched how her talent, Harmony, stumbled into a man’s embrace. After their brief encounter, Harmony ran away when her fans chased after her. In the surveillance, the man lowered his head and found something. A few seconds later, he was seen holding a gemstone in his hand as he examined it.

“That’s the gemstone my talent lost. I finally found it. So, this gentleman found it.” Sera breathed in relief; everything was easier since the stone was found.

Now, all she had to do was ask the man in the surveillance footage to return the gemstone. Armed with this evidence, she was confident she could retrieve the gemstone. The only snag was that she had no clue how to track down the man. After seeking help from various contacts, she eventually ended up back at the police station. Even though she didn’t officially file a report, the police assisted her in obtaining information about the man.

When Sera got the address of the hotel that he checked into, she mumbled, “Ezekiel Weiss, a guest at presidential suite 8888. Looks like he’s a big shot! How can we get back the diamond?”

In the apartment, the girl on the couch was holding an iPad. As she looked at the pictures of a couple holding hands and kissing, tears flowed down her face uncontrollably. The man in the pictures was her boyfriend since she joined acting school. They had worked hard together, keeping their relationship a secret. She thought that once she had earned enough, she could hold his hand onstage and publicly announce their relationship.

After clinching the Best Actress award at the Golden Rose Award and seeing her career soar, she discovered her boyfriend was secretly dating a wealthy celebrity. He was even caught in an intimate act with the other girl in a parking lot by the paparazzi. In the midst of filming an advertisement abroad, she hastily returned home without weighing the consequences. Unfortunately, trouble didn’t come alone, and she even misplaced the gemstone used during the shoot.

The cell phone next to Harmony rang, and she quickly glanced at it. Upon seeing that it was a call from her manager, she hurriedly picked it up. “Hello? Did you find it, Sera?”

“I did. It fell onto the clothes of the man you accidentally bumped into. I’ve got the hotel address where he’s staying. You should swing by tonight and retrieve the gemstone from him. It just doesn’t feel right if I go,” Sera said.

“Okay, I’ll look for him at his hotel,” Harmony replied. After the call, her cell phone rang again. It was an unknown number, but she picked it up anyway. “Hello, who’s calling?”

“It’s me, Harmony. I called to warn you to stay away from my boyfriend. Reuben and I are seeing each other now.” The smugness and arrogance in Catalina’s voice was obvious.

“You…” Harmony’s chest filled with anger, and she was at a loss for words to retort back at her. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Oh, here’s another tidbit for you. Reuben actually made the first move to win me over, and it turns out he’s my type, so we started dating naturally. Just thought it’s fair play, you know, considering you took my endorsement and all.” Catalina added and hung up after laughing in glee.

“Damn it,” Harmony muttered, biting her lip and clenching her fists in frustration.

Twenty minutes later, Sera returned and showed her the surveillance footage. “Look, this gentleman found the diamond. With this surveillance as evidence, I’m confident that he will return it.”

Harmony took a look at the man who found the diamond, feeling like she was in the dumps. “Do I have to approach him tonight to get it back?”

“Miss Mayo, this is an urgent matter! You have no idea how I almost broke my legs running around and asking for favors because of this matter. No matter how bad you’re feeling right now, you must pull your

socks up and get back the gemstone.” After telling her off, Sera took another look at the man in the surveillance and exclaimed in surprise, “Wow, he’s perfect to be a celebrity.”

She paused the video, and the man’s handsomely sculptured face was on the screen. Even though the image was a little grainy, they could still tell that he was a stunning man. “Goodness, this is totally the face for a male lead! If I can get him to be a talent under my wing, I have nothing to worry about anymore!” she exclaimed, her eyes glued on the screen.
