Chapter 135 What Are You Doing Here?
Hayley''s POV:
Finished
Benjamin handed me the car key and instructed, "By the way, go grab the bottle of wine Amy requested. It''s in my passenger seat."
I took the key, headed to the parking lot, found the wine, and made my way back
By the time I returned, Amy hade down and was chatting with Benjamin.
They seemed to be having a pleasant conversation, and seeing them together stirred an odd feeling in my
chest.
I realized, to my surprise, that I was starting to feel a possessiveness towards Benjamin, almost as strong as Hera''s.
Amy, here''s the wine you requested. I took a deep breath to settle my emotions and walked over to
them.
Amy nced at the bottle and said in fluent English, "Mr. Benjamin, you''re so generous.
Iwas a little taken aback. So Amy speaks English too?
Benjamin gave her a polite smile. "As long as Ms. Amy enjoys it, that''s what matters."
I stood to the side, and Benjamin turned to me, saying, Have a seat."
I shook my head. "No need, Mr. Benjamin. I''ll stand by here. Just let me know if you need anything.
He gave me a curious look, then turned back to Amy. "Ms. Amy, I''m very grateful for your visit to Midnight Pack. I believe this coboration between us will be a great sess."
But before he could finish, Amy interrupted him, “Mr. Benjamin, I didn''t actually have toe here myself, but..."
She cast him a meaningful look, her gaze carrying a hint of yful seduction. "There was a very tempting reason that made me look forward to this trip. As for the business discussion, I just arrived and haven''t adjusted to the time zone yet. Let''s save that forter. As the host, do you have any ns for a little rxation?"
Benjamin, as serious as ever, asked, "Is there something specific you''d like to do, Ms. Amy?"
Amy''s smile brightened. "I heard there''s a mountain nearby called Drakeshard Mountain, and there''s a hot spring resort there that''s supposed to be nice. How about we go for a soak tomorrow?"
Standing off to the side, I couldn''t help but choke on my own breath at her boldness. Amy didn''t seem like she was here to discuss work; it looked more like she was trying to charm Benjamin.
Though I had heard that wolves from different continents rarely make good mates, a rather petty thought crossed my mind...
Benjamin responded, "If that''s what Ms. Amy would like. I''ll have my beta arrange
it."

bring Ms. Selena along! She can help trante any work-rted matters if needed."
Finished
Thrown into the mix unexpectedly, I nced at Benjamin, unsure of his reaction. He showed no particr expression, leaving mepletely unable to guess his thoughts,
I stole a nce at Amy. With her exotic beauty, it was hard to imagine any man could resist her allure. And while Benjamin was a powerful alpha, he was still a ma. Surely, if he found her attractive, that would be understandable.
A strange bitterness settled in my chest as I looked at Amy, feeling an irrational twinge of annoyance. But I wasn''t yet aware of the shift happening in my own heart
The next morning, I arrived at the hotel early to meet Amy. She was punctual, arriving with her assistant right on time. "Ms. Selena, thank you for waiting"
I smiled. "Not at all; I just got here."
Amy followed me to the car, and we set off to meet Benjamin. But when we got there, Benjamin wasn''t alone in his car. With him were Henry and Christopher
An uneasy feeling washed over me, and I instinctively tried to avoid their gaze. Luckily, they were seated in the front and hadn''t looked back at me. They were chatting as we drove.
Christopher mentioned that he''d been feeling restlesstely and had cleared his schedule for some rxation. He''d originally nned a getaway with Henry, but Benjamin had roped them into joining him for the hot springs instead.
I hadn''t expected Benjamin to invite his two brothers along to host Amy.
I was already a bit anxious about handling Benjamin alone in my role as "Selena,
and now with Henry and Christopher here, I was even more cautious.
Amy leaned over and whispered to me, "Ms. Selena, who are those two gentlemen?" I nced at Christopher and Henry in the front seats. "They''re members of the Southwells, Mr. Christopher and Mr. Henry."
Amy raised her eyebrows with a slight smile. "So they''re Mr. Benjamin''s brothers?"
I nodded. "Exactly."
Hearing this, Amy''s smile grew wider. She leaned back in her seat, remarking. "I didn''t expect Mr. Benjamin''s brothers to be so interesting
I wasn''t sure what she meant by that and didn''t dwell on it. The car continued toward Drakeshard Mountain.
Drakeshard Mountain was located north of the city, about an hour''s drive from downtown. When we arrived, I got out first to introduce Amy to the area. Just then, Benjamin approached Henry and Christopher.
Out of nowhere, Henry called out excitedly from behind me, "Hayley! What are you doing here?"
