Hayley’s POV:

“Good news! Hayley, this is an invitation to the SK Packs banquet. It’s an event for high society and clite individuals.
“I figured that you’re with Ben and you’re going to be our future Luna, you should definitely attend an occasion like this. So I brought the invitation for you. Do you have time to go?” Odessa asked, her gaze fixed on me.
I had no interest in the banquet she mentioned!
But I was taken aback by how quickly her attitude had shifted.
I had to admit, with her acting skills, it was a waste that she wasn’t pursuing a career as an actress.
I outright declined her offer. “Mrs. Southwell, I don’t think I’m officially the Luna of the Midnight Pack yet, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to attend. I’ll pass on the event, sorry.”
As soon as I finished speaking, Odessa stepped forward and took my hand.
“Sweetheart, how could it not be appropriate for you to go? You’re Benjamin’s fiancée!
“You’ll eventually help Ben manage the Midnight Pack, and building connections with people in our circle will only help pave the way for your future together. Don’t you agree, Ben?”
Odessa looked at Benjamin, who raised an eyebrow and, as usual, left the decision to me. “It’s up to Hayley If she wants to go, I’ll go with her. If not, then that’s fine.”
Odessa smiled, not waiting for my response, and made the decision on her own.
“Then it’s settled. Hayley, get ready. Let those people see that even though our future Luna is an Omega, she’ll never be outshone by anyone.”
I remained silent, listening to her sarcastic remarks.
“Mom, I said it’s up to Hayley. If she doesn’t want to go, please don’t force her,” Benjamin said firmly, stepping in to defend me and rejecting Odessa’s decision.
For a moment, Odessa’s expression darkened, her face filled with a mix of frustration and disappointment.
“What’s the matter? I’m just looking out for you both, but it seems like you don’t understand. Besides, this is the SK Pack’s banquet, and I’ve heard their Alpha has a close relationship with Johnny Estrada. He will be there this time.
“You know who Johnny Estrada is, don’t you? If the Southwells can establish a connection with him, it will significantly benefit both the Midnight Pack and the Southwell Group’s business. The Southwells‘ global expansion is just a matter of time.”
I was a bit surprised when she mentioned Johnny.
It had been a while since I last saw my godfather, Johnny.

“Mrs. Southwell, are you talking about that Johnny Estrada, the billionaire?” I asked, confirming with her,
Odessa rolled her eyes at me, clearly irritated.
“Of course! Who else could it be?”
I decided to ignore her rudeness, smiling as I replied, “In that case, I’ll go to the SK Pack’s banquet.”
Odessa gave me a disdainful look, as though she thought I was only attending to latch onto Johnny the billionaire.
She smirked and said, “Alright, then. You can go with Ben.”
After Odessa left, Benjamin turned to me and asked, “You weren’t interested in the banquet before. What made you want to go now?”
