Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate
Chapter 664 Eyeing the Alpha
Darcy’s POV:
Facing Virginia, I put on my most innocent expression.
Testing the waters, I asked, “Virginia, do you think I should share a room with Michelle?
“That way, we can bond more easily, right?”
“No,” Virginia shut me down instantly. “Michelle doesn’t like sharing a room with anyone.”
I wasn’t expecting such a firm rejection. It annoyed me.
Still, I kept my composure, smiled, and looked at her again.

“Oh, I see.” I nodded, as if I agreed. “You have a point, Virginia. In that case, I’ll just stay with you instead!”
“No way!” Virginia frowned, her tone irritated. “I don’t like sharing a room either! Just go pick an empty one for yourself!”
I knew Virginia would never agree to my suggestion.
And that was exactly what I had been waiting for.
Grinning, I went off to choose my room.
At first, I thought Benjamin was staying in this house. However, after wandering around, I realized his room was in the courtyard next door.
If that was the case, then staying with Hayley and the others wouldn’t get me any closer to Benjamin, would it?
I stopped in my tracks, torn.
Hayley’s POV:
I was just about to leave to do needle therapy for Dorothy when an all–too–familiar, unpleasant scent filled the air. Hera wrinkled her nose in disgust.
Looking up, I saw none other than the fake Darcy sneaking around, peering into every corner like a thief.
“What are you doing here?” I asked icily.
She flinched, then quickly turned to face me, her
eyes darting away in guilt.
After a brief silence, she spoke. “Virginia told me to pick a room, but there aren’t any left here.”
I thought about it. She wasn’t wrong. After Claudio arrived, all six main rooms were occupied. There really wasn’t any space left.
“Then go stay with Marie and the others,” I said casually.
“Marie? Who’s that?” she asked.

“What? No way!” Darcy immediately raised her voice in protest, her expression appalled.

Realizing how bad that sounded, she quickly tried to explain. “I don’t mind, really! But if people found out that the daughter of the Sanders was staying with the servants, wouldn’t that be humiliating for our family?
“Michelle, you can’t be serious.”
I crossed my arms, staring her down. “So that won’t work, and this won’t work either. Then tell me–where exactly do you want to stay?”
She pretended to think it over, pausing for a moment before speaking. “When I arrived, I noticed the courtyard next door was guarded, too. That means it’s one of our family’s properties, right? I could just stay there.”
I instinctively glanced toward Benjamin’s residence. Oh, so that’s her game.
Before, I couldn’t understand why Jeremy had suddenly decided to send his daughter here.
Now I get it. She’s here for Benjamin.
Wow. On her first day here, and she’s already eyeing my fiancé? Darcy sure is bold.
But seriously, do she and Jeremy think they stand a chance?
Darcy is nothing but a two–faced, low–tier Beta with average looks and a scheming little brain.
Even my regular Beta soldiers won’t consider her as a mate.
Fine. I won’t stop them if they’re so eager to embarrass themselves. Might as well sit back and enjoy the show.
“Sure.” I hid my amusement and agreed without hesitation. Then, turning on my heel, I walked toward the courtyard exit.
“I’ll take you there.”
