Chapter 241: Unexpected Thoughts

Benjamin’s POV:

Tyrone said, “I don’t know. It wasn’t written on the top.”

“Open it and take a look,” I instructed him as I continued looking through the files.

Tyrone acknowledged my command, and after a few moments, I heard him report, “Alpha, it’s a car model.”

I looked up, finally paying attention to him. Tyrone handed me an envelope and said, “There’s also an invitation.”

Curious, I opened the envelope and took a quick look. “It’s an invitation to a car race organized by a domestic group. Alpha, would you like to attend?”

The memory of my last trip to France to watch a race suddenly came to mind. I declined, saying, “I won’t go.”

Tyrone nodded respectfully and asked, “Shall I put this away for you?”

“No, give it to Henry. He’ll like it,” I told him.

“I’ll leave it in your car, and you can take it back when you head home,” Tyrone suggested.

I nodded in agreement. That evening, I returned home with the package and headed to Henry’s room.

When I opened the door, I saw Henry writing a paper. I was surprised. “When did you become so serious about studying?”

Henry looked up at me and asked, “Ben, what are you doing here?”

I placed the box on the table and explained, “I just received a new car model. I thought you’d like it, so I brought it for you.”

Henry’s eyes lit up in excitement. “Really? You won’t believe it, I saw Hayley get an amazing limited-edition car model today. I was so jealous, and now I have one too!”

With that, Henry eagerly opened the box. He frowned, inspecting it closely, and then suddenly asked, “Ben, do you guys buy these car models in bulk? This one looks exactly like Hayley’s.”

I froze in surprise. “You mean Hayley has one like this?”

Henry nodded and said, “The package she got today had the same car model. What a coincidence that you have one too, Ben!”

I fell silent, thinking carefully about why Hayley had received one. Henry thought I didn’t believe him; he quickly added, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll go get Hayley’s car model from her. It’s the exact same one.”

After I gave it some thought, I explained, “It wasn’t bought. The domestic car racing association sent it.”

Henry took a moment to process my words, exclaiming, “No way! Was Hayley’s car model also sent by the domestic car racing association? That can’t be possible?!”

“She’s an Omega. How could she possibly race?”

I paused, also deep in thought. Could Hayley be a racer? Still, like Henry said, she was just an Omega. I’d never seen an Omega who could be a racer. Racing was a profession that required top-notch physical abilities—something only the strongest could manage. Clearly, someone like Hayley wouldn’t have the physical attributes for it.

What’s going on here?

As I left Henry’s room, I ran into Hayley just as she opened her door across the hall. Our eyes met for a brief moment, and after two seconds, she quickly looked away.

“Have you eaten?” Hayley asked, her expression slightly awkward.

I stared at her intently, carefully examining her.
