GoodNovelAlpha Hayley's Destined Mate Chapter 404 The Neighbor Hayley's POV: On my first day in the new place, I did a quick clean and ordered takeout to make do.
But when evening came, lying alone in the big bed and staring at the ceiling, a deep sense of loneliness crept in.
I was very sensitive to my environment, and suddenly moving into a new place leftfeeling unsettled.
I tossed and turned, unable to sleep until morning.

But when I opened the door, I saw the neighbor next door moving things in.
Curious, I asked, “Are you the new neighbors?" The worker replied, "We are from the moving company helping with the move." thought it was a bit coincidental. I had just moved in yesterday, and now it seemed a new neighbor was moving in next door.
I didn't think much of it. When the elevator arrived, I just got in.
By the tI got to the studio, it was already 10 AM. As soon as I arrived, Tanner hurried over and asked with concern, "Hayley, are you okay?" I smiled and replied, "I'm doing fine! I just moved in so I'm not used to my new place yet, and that's why I woke up late." "It's fine, that's not what I meant! What I wanted to ask was ..." Tanner hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Why did you suddenly move out? What's the real reason?" I hesitated when I heard that and, after a moment's hesitation, calmly said, "There's no special reason. I've just been bothering you guys for too long, so I thought it would be nice to have a change of environment." Tanner clearly wasn't convinced and pressed on seriously, “Is the really the reason, or is there something you're not telling me?" "Hayley, we've known each other for a long tnow, If something's going on with you, you have to tell me. Don't treatlike a stranger," Tanner said earnestly.
I nodded. "Don't worry, I will. But don't overthink it." When Tanner heard that, the tension in his face finally eased.
"Alright, then. Get to work, and I'll head back to my office." After Tanner left, I pulled out my chair and sat down.

The assistant glanced over and quietly explained, "It's Clarice Blackwell's dress-there's a problem. They're unhappy with the design we gave them. We showed them the design drafts when they were ready, and they didn't raise any issues. But now that the dress is done, they're saying this part is wrong and that part isn't right."
"Normally, with custom-made dresses, both sides would review the design drafts and provide feedback.
If there were any concerns, changes could have been made at that stage." "Now that the dress was already finished, complaining about the design seemed like they were just trying to cause trouble." "I'll go take a look..." The assistant quickly grabbed my arm. "Don't go. This is Mr. Southwell's design, and he'll handle it." :
