Chapter 396 If You Don’t Come, Deal with the Consequences.
Hayley’s POV
A familiar female voice came through the phone: It’s the Where are you right now?”
Hearing the voice, it took me a moment to respond. I quickly called out, “Mrs. Southwell, do you need something?”
“Tm shopping at Evermore Mall right now. Come pick me up.”
“But 1- I had just started speaking when Odessa cut me off. ‘Don’t want to? That’s fine, just pretend I
didn’t ask.”

I sighed helplessly. “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that I have some things to take care of here. How about you keep shopping, and I’ll come over a bit later?
“I’ll give you half an hour. If you don’t come by then, deal with the consequences yourself.
With that, Odessa hung up the call.
Listening to the beeping tone coming from the receiver, I suddenly lost all appetite for the meal in front
Di me.
After checking the time, I paid the bill and immediately called for a ride to Evermore Mall.
“Odessa, do you think she’ll really come?” A stylishly dressed woman clung to Odessa’s arm, her tone soft
and sweet.
Odessa snorted. “No matter what, I’m still her future mother–in–law. If she doesn’t come, then there’s no point in maintaining this relationship any longer.”
Vivian Jagged felt a flicker of joy at those words, but she didn’t let it show, Instead, she said with a regretful rone, “Honestly, I think Ben is such a great guy. I just don’t understand why he’d get engaged to an Omega like her.”
Odessa quickly took her hand and said, “Vivian, you know this! Your mother and I have been best friends for so many years. In my heart, you’re the only rightful Luna for our Midnight Pack.
“As for this Hayley, she’s nothing more than someone that old man arranged. Now that he’s gone, this engagement doesn’t hold any weight anymore.”
“Really, Odessa?” Vivian’s excitement lit up instantly at her words.
“Trust me, of course it’s true. Once Hayley gets here, we’ll make sure she fully understands the gap between her and our circle,” Odessa said with absolute confidence.
Vivian nodded vaguely, then sneered, “I heard Hayley comes from the Shadow Pack, that remote and backward place, She’s probably never even been to a mall before!
If she sees that the clothes and bags we casually buy cost tens of thousands, she’ll probably be green with
and realize what a joke she really is.”

Odessa scoffed with disdain.
Finished.
“I just don’t understand how an Omega like her caught that old man’s eye. She probably played the pity. card to gain sympathy. A woman like that is nowhere near worthy of our Alpha Benjamin.”
“Don’t worry, Odessal She’s just an Omega, I’ll make sure to teach her a proper lesson later, Vivian’s expression turned dark and malicious as she spoke.
Hearing Vivian’s words, Odessa immediately felt reassured.
Hayley’s POV:
It took me half an hour to rush over to Odessa.
“Mrs. Southwell, I’m here.”
Odessa gave me a cold glance and said, “Join us for some shopping.”
It was only then, thanks to her comment, that I noticed the Beta girl standing next to her, dressed head to toe in designer brands.
Out of politeness, I smiled and nodded in greeting. “Hello! I’m Hayley Carson.”
She returned my smile as she spoke, “Hello, I’m Vivian Blackwell.
“I’ve heard all about you from Odessa! You’re the Luna Ben picked, right? Ben is so lucky to have such a beautiful girlfriend like you,” Vivian said, her tone dripping with subtle sarcasm.
I quickly picked up on the underlying mockery, but she kept up a polite facade, so I responded calmly, “Thank you. You’re beautiful as well.”
Vivian didn’t reply, instead casually linking her arm with Odessa.
“Odessa, I heard Chanel released a new collection. Let’s go check it out.”
“Sure, let’s go take a look.”
The two of them walked ahead, as close as a mother and daughter, completely ignoring me trailing behind.
