Alpha Hayley's Destined Mate novel Chapter 598

Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate 

Chapter 598 The Confidence to Take Legal Action 

Hayley’s POV: 

Benjamin pulled over to the side of the road, letting out a resigned chuckle before speaking, “The Southwells are suing me.”

He paused for a moment, then looked at me, explaining the situation in more detail, “To be more specific, it’s some of my relatives. They believe the 10 billion I invested in Yarbrough Pharmaceuticals was taken from company funds, and they’re accusing me of embezzling.” 

Even though Benjamin was the Alpha of the Midnight Pack, he didn’t have the same kind of control I did as Alpha of the Shadow Pack. 

The Southwell elders still held sway over him, which gave his relatives the confidence to take legal action. It made me realize just how different our positions were, and I couldn’t help but feel a bit of sympathy for him. 

“They really are something else,” I scoffed. “First, they kick you out with nothing, and now that they see you can handle such a large sum, they want to take advantage of you again. Are these your relatives? Unbelievable!” 

“You don’t seem too concerned about where my money comes from,” Benjamin asked, raising an eyebrow at 

1. me. 

I furrowed my brow for a moment, then turned to him with a mock innocent expression. “It’s not a lot. Is it really important to ask where it came from?” 

Benjamin’s eyes widened in surprise. 

He still didn’t quite understand. To me, 10 billion was hardly a remarkable amount anymore. 

We didn’t dwell on the topic further. 

As soon as I stepped out of the car, Loretta rushed over to me. 

“The stock price went up! It went up! Hayley, you’re amazing!” Loretta exclaimed, throwing her arms around my neck in excitement. 

“We’ve covered all the losses! Our debts are paid off, and everything’s back to normal! Hayley, you’re a genius!” 

“Ahem…” Benjamin cleared his throat loudly, standing a little to the side. “Ms. Parsons, please remember to keep a respectful distance from my fiancée,” he said, his voice carrying a hint of playfulness. 

“Hehe.” Loretta quickly released me, but the next moment, she wrapped her arms around my waist, her body pressing against mine. 

“I don’t want to! I just want to stay with Hayley, I want Hayley to be my mate and marry her!” Loretta said with a laugh. 

As Benjamin and I became closer, Loretta seemed to lose her fear of him, no longer intimidated by his Alpha status. 

Benjamin frowned, teasing me, “Hayley, can you tone down the charm? Now even girls are falling for you.”

I shrugged with a grin, giving him an innocent look. 

Finished 

Once the playful moment passed, Loretta stepped back and stood to the side, her demeanor suddenly more respectful, almost as if she were one of my loyal Beta subordinates. 

She then turned to me. “So, what’s next, Hayley? What stock should I tell my dad to buy?” 

I stopped walking, my expression turning serious. “Loretta, stock speculation isn’t a long–term solution. It’s best to take your profits while you can. Chasing after more can lead to trouble.” 

“Trouble?!” Loretta gasped, clutching her chest. “That sounds terrifying! I don’t want my dad to mess with stocks again; I want him to stay healthy and safe!” 

“That’s good.” I gave her shoulder a reassuring pat. “It’s not a guaranteed disaster, but when people blindly chase after something without really thinking, it rarely ends well.
