Chapter 381: Are You Truly Ms. Carson?

Hayley’s POV:

I asked seriously, “Have you seen Benjamin?”

Christopher shook his head. “No, I haven’t seen him today. My wolf hasn’t sensed him either. You should ask Lista. She might know.”

He called Lista over.

When Lista saw my unfamiliar face, she looked confused and asked, “Mr. Christopher, who is this lady?”

I smiled at Lista and said, “Lista, it’s me, Hayley.”

Her eyes widened in surprise. She stepped back a few paces, looking at me in disbelief.

Excitedly, she asked, “Are you truly… Ms. Carson?”

I nodded, but Lista still didn’t seem convinced. “Miss, are you kidding me? Ms. Carson isn’t the prettiest, but she’s kind and sweet. You’re so beautiful. It’s hard to believe you could be her!”

I sighed, realizing that as a true Omega, Lista couldn’t recognize me from my scent. I stepped closer and said earnestly, “Lista, it’s really me!”

But she still shook her head in disbelief. “I don’t believe it unless you tell me a secret that only Ms. Carson and I know.”

I smiled, leaned in, and whispered something in her ear.

Lista froze, her eyes wide. “You’re truly Ms. Carson?”

“Yes, Lista! It’s me!”

She gasped. “But… this is unbelievable! Did you get plastic surgery?”

I shook my head, smiling. “No, I just used to dress simply, and my makeup was rough. This is the real me.”

Lista seemed to think for a moment before nodding. “I see. Ms. Carson, did you need something?”

I quickly asked, “Where’s Benjamin? Has he come back home?”

The mention of Benjamin made Lista’s expression shift instantly. “Oh, Ms. Carson, I almost forgot to tell you—Alpha went abroad this afternoon.”

“He left in a hurry because Mr. and Mrs. Southwell had an accident overseas.”

“What did you say? What happened to my parents?”

Christopher, who had been listening, immediately walked over urgently.

Lista bowed respectfully and explained everything to him. “They had an accident in Arcadia, and their whereabouts are still unknown. Alpha arranged for a private plane right away, so he should have arrived by now. Before he left, he asked me to apologize to Ms. Carson.”

After hearing that, Christopher quickly turned and started to leave.

I snapped back to reality and rushed after him. “Christopher, where are you going?”

“To Arcadia, to find my parents,” he replied urgently.

“Take me with you!” I said without hesitation, and Christopher nodded.

“Okay!”

“Wait for me—I need to grab my passport,” I said as I rushed upstairs.

But Lista quickly stopped me. “Ms. Carson, Alpha told you to stay at home and wait for news.”

“Mr. Christopher, you shouldn’t go either. Alpha stated that he could manage Midnight Pack’s affairs independently, with the assistance of his assistant, Tyrone. If there’s any news, he’ll contact you right away.”

Christine also stepped in. “Yes, we don’t know the full situation yet. Going there won’t help. It’s better to stay here and wait for updates.”

Christopher still insisted, “No, I have to go!”

Hera was also eager for me to be by Benjamin’s side.

I took a moment to think carefully about whether I should go or wait.
