Benjamin''s POV:

The moment I finished speaking, Tyrone''s eyes widened in surprise. "I knew it-it''s because of Ms.
Carson!"
He looked at me like he''d discovered a rare treasure, then added with a dramatic.flourish, "Alpha, Ms. Carson is something else! She''s actually avoiding
you."
"So many women have thrown themselves at you over the years, only to be turned away without mercy. Hayley is the first-and probably the only-person who''s ever dared to say ''no'' to you!"
The way Tyrone looked at me even carried a hint of schadenfreude.
I shot him a warning re, and he quickly toned down his smile before continuing.
"Alpha, did you do something to make Ms. Carson mad? Or did you two have a fight?"
"Honestly, girls aren''t that hard to make up with-a bouquet of flowers, a box of choctes, maybe a romantic candlelit dinner. Works like a charm! Want to give it a try?"
replied dryly, "Do I seem like someone so cliché?".
Tyrone quickly shook his head. "No, of course not. I''m just saying-it works for some people. But obviously, it depends on the person and how deep your rtionship is."
I knew what he was getting at. But the problem was, I didn''t even know how to exin myself to Hayley. The whole situation was a misunderstanding from the start.
"Alright, leave me alone for now," I said.
After Tyrone left, I pulled out my phone. First, I contacted a florist and ordered a fresh bouquet of roses. Then, I ordered arge box of premium choctes and had them delivered to Hayley''s school by one of
my men.
But that didn''t feel like enough. So, I opened my banking app and transferred money directly to Hayley''s
ount.
Ding! I sent her 1,800 dors with the note: "That day was a misunderstanding. Please let me exin."
Ding! I sent her another 1,800 dors with the note. "I don''t know what you heard or saw, but it''s not what you think."
Ding! Yet another 1,800 dors, with the note: "I have no interest in any other woman. Please trust me."
Hayley''s POV:
We''d barely gotten through one ss when my phone kept buzzing incessantly. When I finally pulled it out to check, I was stunned.
My screen was flooded with notifications-transfer messages from Benjamin.

I scrolled up to the first one and began reading through them one by one.

By the time I finished, my expression had softened, and a faint smile crept onto my face. My mood improved significantly,
"Boss, someone''s here to see you at the door," Henry sad as he walked into the ssroom, holding an enormous bouquet of roses.
The sight instantly caused amotion among our ssmates, with whispers and giggles spreading through the room.
Henry walked straight up to me and handed me the roses. "Boss, these are for you!"
Blinking in surprise, I stared at the bouquet. I could already guess that Benjamin was behind this.
But that wasn''t the end of it. A momentter, a Beta warrior walked into the ssroom, holding a box of choctes. He handed them to me and said, "Oh, and here''s a box of choctes! Almost forgot-these are for you too, Ms. Carson."

I stared at the items in my hands, momentarily stunned.

Beside me, Henry grinned mischievously. "Boss, who''s the lucky guy? So old- fashioned, giving you roses and choctes ... Don''t tell me-"
He cut himself off mid-sentence, covering his mouth dramatically. But his face
was full of glee, and he burst intoughter a momentter.
"Boss, all of this has to be from Ben, right? Seriously, how is he this cheesy? Roses and choctes? What is this, the ''90s?"
I shot him a sharp look and hugged the bouquet protectively. "Shut up! At least he''s thoughtful enough to give roses and choctes. No wonder you''re still single Henry immediately zipped his lips, pretending to look hurt.
I didn''t argue with him further. Instead, I held the bouquet close and couldn''t stop the smile spreading across my face.
Just then, Benjamin''s name shed across my phone screen. He was calling me.
I hesitated for a moment, then rejected the call without answering.
