Chapter 474 Breaking an Engagement


    Hayley''s POV:


    Benjamin remembered well and quickly asked, "Is that he person from the century-old family you mentioned before?"


    I nodded, "Yes."


    "Daniel is engaged to Freya," Benjamin informed me.


    "Originally, Daniel was supposed to be engaged to Freya''s sister, but over the past couple of years, it shifted to Freya. It seems their parents saw an opportunity with the Sanders'' resources and arranged things quietly."


    "So it''s more like a business alliance," Imented.


    Benjamin did not respond directly. He ushered me into the car and only spoke after we''d driven a ways.


    "Daniel is bad news-irresponsible and corrupt. Mrs. Laurel ispletely against the engagement, and there''s been a lot of conflict between the two families over it."


    Upon hearing that, I nodded. Mrs. Laurel was known for her tough and assertive nature, willing to confront issues head-on rather thanpromise her family''s interests. This situation seemed typical of her approach.


    However, with the engagement set, breaking it would require finding fault with Daniel.


    Given the current circumstances, Mrs. Laurel might have already taken steps to sever the arrangement, which could trigger further conflict.


    The intricate and often harsh dynamics between powerful families reminded me of territorial disputes between wolf packs that could escte into outright conflicts.


    We reached the campus entrance, and as I was about to say goodbye and get out, I noticed Benjamin had stepped out too.


    "Do you have anything else nned?"


    Benjamin took my hand boldly and began walking with me toward the dorms.


    "I just remembered today''s Friday. Go back, pack your stuff, and we''ll leave togetherter.


    "If I hadn''t seen Daniel bothering you today, maybe I wouldn''t insist. But I did, and for your safety, I need to keep you close," he exined.


    Surprisingly, his protective stance did not bother me. Instead, I found myself feeling reassured, even a bit pleased by his concern.


    Perhaps this is the distinct allure of the Moon Goddess''s destined mate.


    Like Hera, I find myself increasingly drawn to him, relishing our time together.


    Chapter 474 Breaking an Engagement


    Daniel''s POV:


    After the intriguing womán departed, I sped away immediately.


    +8 Pearls


    After about 20 minutes of speeding through the city center, my men sent me her school address and a photo.


    I nced at the photo and mmed on the brakes, swearing in disappointment. I had not expected her to be so unattractivel


    As an Alpha heir, to be insulted by such an unappealing Omega was an affront to


    me.


    Her looks repulsed me.


    After a brief moment, I whipped the steering wheel around and headed straight for her school.


    She needed to understand the consequences of offending someone of my status- an Alpha heir!


    I floored the elerator, driving directly to her dormitory.


    The zing midday sun beat down on me, fueling my restlessness. I impatiently removed my sunsses, checked my watch, and waited with growing anxiety.


    Over an hour passed without any sight of Hayley.


    Could she have somehow anticipated my arrival and purposely avoided me?


    My initial n was to confront her unexpectedly without my mask, to witness her mortification.


    I intended to teach her a stern lesson.


    Now, frustrated, I reluctantly pulled out my phone and dialed the number my men had acquired.


    The phone barely started ringing before the call was abruptly cut off.


    Furious, I was about to smash my phone on the ground.


    However, as I was about to throw it, my hand unexpectedly hit something soft...
