Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate
Chapter 270 He Did This For George
Hayley’s POV:
I didn’t even need to open the door to know it was Benjamin.
Hera’s reaction had already been too intense.
I opened the door, and sure enough, there he was.
“Why are you here?” I asked.
Benjamin was holding a delicate box and handed it to me.
“Here, for you,” he said.
I looked at him, confused. “What’s this?”
“A Christmas gift.
Finished
“Since Grandpa passed away, we didn’t properly celebrate Christmas this year, but I couldn’t forget to give you your gift.”
I reached out in disbelief, took the box, and opened it.
The moment I saw what was inside, I was stunned. “This”
A sapphire shimmered with dazzling brilliance, its beauty so overwhelming it made me tremble.
“It’s a blue diamond from the gemstone mines,” he explained. “I had a designer turn it into this bracelet. Not bad, right?”
I already knew all of this, and I also knew that the bracelet wasn’t cheap.
Before this, I had always thought he would use this rare blue diamond for business purposes.
I never imagined he would turned it into jewelry and gave it to me.
“Why are you giving this to me?” I asked, touched.
“It suits you. Take it.”
Benjamin’s expression remained calm. Without much explanation, he walked away.
I watched him walk away, and called after him, “Thank you!”
Once Benjamin was gone, I looked at the bracelet in my hand, smiling happily.
Benjamin, have you developed feelings for me too? I couldn’t help but wonder.
The thought came to me, and I quickly shook my head
It must be because of Grandpa Southwell. After all, if it werent for the things he said before he passed, Benjamin wouldn’t have proposed to me, let alone give me a gift like this

I know exactly why this is all happening–it’s because of Grandpa Southwell.
The thought made my heart sink again.
Finished
The next day, I returned to school.
But today. I wasn’t in a good mood, I stared at my laptop but couldn’t type a single word.
Christine noticed my bad mood and quickly came over patting me on the shoulder. “Hayz, what are your thinking about? You look so lost in thought.
I snapped out of it, realizing I hadn’t written anything for my paper. Quickly, I said, “Nothing”
Christine didn’t believe me. She leaned in and whispered, “I heard you’re getting engaged to Alpha. Is that
True?”
When she mentioned Benjamin, I instinctively looked up and met Christine’s serious gaze. “How do you know?” I asked.
Christine grinned. “Looks like Christopher was right.
“Congratulations, Hayz! Alpha is so handsome and powerful. So many highborn girls would love to be his Luna, but he chose you. You’re so lucky.
Christine smiled excitedly, congratulating me.
I responded casually, “Christopher’s not bad either! You’ve been calling him hubby for so long. Maybe you should let him become your husband.”
Christine’s face turned red, and she started stammering “W–What are you talking about? Christopher and… we’re not what you think.”
I teased her, “Right. You’re not like that, you two have a different, unspeakable kind of relationship.”
Christine couldn’t hold it in anymore and confessed, “No, we haven’t officially defined our relationship
yet.
“Oh, so you’re still figuring it out?” I asked, curious,
Christine shook her head, her eyes filled with loss and confusion.
“Hayz, do you think Christopher likes my type?” She asked, her brow furrowed in uncertainty.
They say that girls in love lose their common sense, and I thought Christine was a perfect example. “So, if you’re unsure whether he loves you, then the answer is probably no.”
“But he’s been nice to me. It’s just that we haven’t taken things further,” Christine quickly added. “We aren’t destined mate, so things are moving slowly. Our relationship isn’t as strong as a mate, and these things can’t be rushed!”
“See, it’s clear that you care more about him,” I pointed out.
Christine hadn’t realized ver that in her relationship with Christopher, she was always the one in the

“Hayz, is there any way to know what he’s thinking?” Christine asked eagerly.
