Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate
Chapter 306: What’s Going On?
Hayley’s POV:
“Ben, are you here to watch the show?” Henry teased, but Benjamin’s gaze was fixed on me. There was a hidden, fiery light in his eyes, and a hint of an emotion I couldn’t understand. I felt a little puzzled but didn’t dwell on it.
“I just came to take a look,” Benjamin said casually, then sat down right next to me.
Christopher noticed how inseparable we were, despite just getting engaged, and teased, “Ben, could you two spare a thought for us poor singles who haven’t found a mate yet?”
Benjamin gave him an indifferent glance. “When you replace me as the Midnight Pack’s Alpha, then I’ll consider your feelings.”
Christopher immediately shut his mouth.
“Boss, come in quickly,” Henry called. I logged into my account, but as soon as the homepage loaded, it froze. “What’s going on?” I clicked several times, but nothing responded.
Beside me, Benjamin glanced at my ID, then looked at me with certainty in his eyes. “So, you really are Joybringer!”
I didn’t have time to respond to him. My homepage was lagging because I had way too many private messages clogging it up.
Benjamin said, “You’ve got too many messages. Just clear your cache.”
Following his advice, I quickly logged out and started clearing the cache. When I logged back in, the lag was gone. However, my private message inbox was flooded with over 999+ messages.
Curious, I clicked in and found they were all from players in the game. Most of them were asking when I’d return to team up and play again. I never imagined that so many people in the gaming world knew me or were waiting to team up with me.
On a whim, I opened my game feed and posted an update: “Let’s play tonight. Who’s in?” Since my post was visible across the global channel, the likes and comments started flooding in almost instantly.
Most of the replies were invitations to join their teams for a game. Henry, fully aware of Joybringer’s influence, was still taken aback by the scene before him. Annoyed, he…

I felt a bit guilty and quickly explained. “Don’t worry. I always have time to play with you guys. Tonight let’s all play together.”
Christopher was still completely clueless, not understanding what was going on at all. When he finally logged into his long-forgotten game account, he was surprised to see Joybringer, who hadn’t been ranked #1 on the global leaderboard, was online. He couldn’t help but comment, “Joybringer hasn’t played in ages, yet somehow still holding onto the top spot.”
Henry couldn’t help but chuckle: Christopher had no idea that Joybringer was Hayley—and Hayley was Joybringer! With that in mind, Henry decided to tease him.
“Christopher, you think Joybringer is that good? What do you think would happen if we played with her?”
Christopher, ever the realist, replied, “Well, it’s obvious—we’d get crushed.”
Henry grinned mischievously. “How about we give it a try then?”
Christopher thought Henry was acting a bit strange today. Who was Joybringer? The top-ranked player on the leaderboard—there was a world of difference between her skills and ordinary players like them. How could she want to play with them? Henry must still be half-asleep.
Hayley’s POV:
“Can Joybringer really play with us?” Christopher suddenly asked Henry. The moment the words left his mouth, the room fell silent. I looked up at him, about to say something, but Henry cut me off, grinning. “What? You don’t believe me?”
Christopher said seriously, “It’s not that I don’t believe you, but Joybringer would never play with someone at our level.”
I suppressed my laugh. Henry glanced at me, then deliberately turned to Christopher and said, “What if I told you Joybringer was going to play with you today?”
