Annette's eyes widened in surprise. She said, "Didn't you just say that your secretary might gossip about it?"

"If he can't even keep his mouth shut, he is not qualified to be my secretary," Connor said as if it was a matter of course.

Annette realized that she had been fooled again. She walked over and was about to complain, but a refreshing smell came to her nose. It was pine.

The pleasant fragrance made her forget what she wanted to say. Connor seemed to have the same feeling.

He lowered his head and kissed Annette.

Annette was stunned for a moment, then she pushed him away.

However, Connor pulled her into his arms.

Annette hit his chest and groaned in pain.

Connor quickly let go of her and said, "Does it still hurt? Are you alright?"

Annette blushed. She walked past him and left his office quickly.

She covered her flushed cheeks and reminded herself that she would never bring food to Connor again.

He was dangerous.

Annette spent the afternoon busy.

After work, everyone in the offi

    Annette said hurriedly, "Curtis, nice to meet you."Curtis smiled, "Actually, I am not a chatter either. But today is different because I have a question for you. So I have to keep talking to avoid embarrassment."Annette looked at him. "What's your question?""Annette, do you have a boyfriend?" Curtis glanced at her from the rearview mirror and was looking forward to her answer.Annette was not a fool.Curtis' purpose was obvious.She did not want more trouble, so she nodded and said, "Yes.""I think so too. Is your boyfriend your classmate? He must be outstanding." Curtis sounded relaxed, as if he was chatting with a friend."You are right. He is very outstanding," Annette said with a smile."Do you guys have a plan? I see that you are serious about your work. Are you trying to stay in the company?"Annette did not answer. Curtis continued, "Don't get me wrong. You remind me of my past. I broke up with my girlfriend when I graduated. So I want to ask if you have plans for the future

    Marcus' confused and depressed expression was still lingering in Annette's mind.She turned to look at the door of the kitchen and felt worse.Not long ago, Connor asked Annette to work at his company, and the only condition he proposed was to cook for him.At that time, Annette thought he was joking with her.Just now, he said, "I am just a man. Don't treat me differently from others. I need love and care just like others." There was bitterness in his eyes when he said so.Annette took a deep breath. She wiped her hands with a towel, opened the door, and left the kitchen.She took her phone out and went downstairs hurriedly by the elevator.At the entrance of the apartment building, the dazzling luxury car was still parked there.Annette bent down slightly and saw Connor sitting in the car. For some reason, she felt relieved.She opened the door of the passenger seat and got into the car.Connor turned to look at her and said, "You finally came down. So, you somehow care about me."A

    Annette's indifference did not affect Curtis.Curtis took her lunchbox and said, "Do you mind if I eat your sandwich? We shouldn't waste food, right?"Annette reached out to take the lunchbox back. "Curtis, I've eaten half of it already. You shouldn't.""We are colleagues. I don't mind." As he spoke, Curtis held the lunchbox and avoided her hand. He sat down beside her.Annette stood up. She walked down the stairs to keep her distance from him.Curtis said dejectedly, "Annette, do you think that I'm annoying?"Annette put her hands behind her, her expression calm."Curtis, I understand what you meant last night. I hope that you can keep some distance from me. I have a boyfriend, and I should be loyal to him. Stand in my shoes and think about it. You will also feel disappointed if your girlfriend flirts with another man behind your back."Annette bent down and took back the lunch box. She said, "I'm not used to letting others eat the rest of my food. I'm sorry. I'll take this away and

    Curtis looked at Annette.Annette said with displeasure, "Thea, I'm telling you. I didn't speak ill of you, nor did I seduce any man in the company. You better mind your words."Annette pulled her hand out and shook off Thea's hand.She looked at Curtis and said, "Curtis, thank you."Curtis waved at her and said, "Go back to the office first."Annette cast a cold glance at Catherine and turned to leave, ignoring Thea while she was still shouting behind her.She walked quickly. She squeezed out of the crowd and left the cafeteria.When she was waiting for the elevator, Catherine caught up to her.She stood beside Annette and said guiltily, "Annette, I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. There were so many people just now. I had no choice.""You had no choice? Then, you think it's fine just to slander others and tell a lie?" Annette hated this kind of person the most.Catherine explained, "Annette, I know that you will leave in a month. I am different. I want to stay in the company, so

    Annette clenched her fists. Without any proof, it was true that she couldn't prove herself innocent.Melvin said unhappily, "Enough. Annette, you're fired. I will call the Finance Department later. Go there, get your pay, and don't come back tomorrow."Annette looked up at him."I'm not convinced. Why should I leave?" Annette said.Amanda said, "Annette did nothing wrong. Mr. Horton, this is unfair.""Who calls the shots in the Training Department? Me or you?" Melvin said impatiently.Just as Melvin finished speaking, a cold voice sounded from the door of the office, "Since when do the department heads call the shots in my company?"As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked over.When Connor appeared, the entire office was silent.Annette glanced at Connor, and then she quickly looked away and shifted her gaze to Amanda.Annette figured that Amanda had gone to Connor for help.Yet to her surprise, Connor would come down to deal with it personally.Connor's gaze swept over every

    Thea had just gotten into the elevator when Annette arrived at the door of it.Annette quickly rushed in.Thea wiped her tears stubbornly. She glared at Annette and asked, "What do you want now?"The elevator doors closed, and Annette pressed the button for the ground floor."I'll just say two things. First, you're targeting the wrong person. Melvin's other lover isn't me. It's Catherine. Second, I did not speak ill of you in the cafeteria today. Think about it. Of all the things you heard at noon, which one came from me?"Thea tilted her head to look at Annette. In the next second, Thea realized something and said, "You mean, that bitch is Catherine?"Annette didn't say anything.Thea was anxious. "Then why didn't you say anything before?""First of all, you never said that the reason why you targeted me was that you thought I was Mr. Horton's lover. Secondly, I will only work here for one month, so I don't want to get myself into trouble. However, just because I don't make trouble d

    Early Saturday morning, Annette was barely awake when her phone began to ring.She thought it was the alarm clock, so she reached out and stopped her phone from ringing.Yet a few minutes later, her phone rang again.She opened her eyes and grabbed the phone. It was a call from Marcus.She picked up the phone and heard Marcus' voice."Luna Annette, why did you hang up on me? Are you still asleep?"She thought, 'Luna Annette?What a harsh address.'"Marcus, I am not Connor's mate.""It's fine. When will you be here?" Marcus continued.Annette frowned and asked, "Where?""We're all going to the suburbs today. I'm sure Connor told you, right?" Marcus said.Annette was stunned. She had forgotten all about it."You guys go ahead. I have other things to do today." Annette wanted to have a nice rest at home."Everything can wait. Connor and I will pick you up on the way. Wait for us at home."After Marcus finished speaking, he hung up the phone.Annette was speechless and thought, 'Since whe

    "I disagree."Annette frowned.A corner of his mouth lifted. "We will stay in the same room, but I won't touch you. How about that?"Annette wanted to say something.Connor said, "Come on. Let's go downstairs, and I'll take you to play golf."They came to the first floor and bumped into Alina, who happened to come inside.Facing Connor and Annette, Alina asked with a stiff smile on her face, "Have you picked your room yet? I came back to pick a room as well.""Yes, we did. You go ahead."As Connor spoke, he pulled Annette and was about to leave. Alina looked back at him and said softly, "Connor."Both Annette and Connor stopped and turned to look at her.Alina smiled and said, "Can I talk to you alone for a minute?""Now?"Alina nodded.Annette sensibly took her hand out of Connor's and said, "I'll wait for you outside."After Annette went out, Alina walked up to Connor."Connor, are you serious with Ms. Hall?" Alina asked."Do I not look serious to you?"Alina bit her lip and looked

    Annette snorted coldly. She immediately said, "Then have you ever thought that her confession to others was her business and had nothing to do with us? Why should we take the blame for her confession to others? This morning, when I came to school, I found that there were people on the forum who slandered me for no reason. I'm so innocent. Won't I feel wronged when I face so many people's slander? Vincent, I won't hurt any students. I didn't do this. If you insist that I did it, just like Sara said, please show me the evidence. Otherwise, go away."Vincent was claiming the moral high ground to seek justice for his student.Now that he could not get it, he was reluctant to let go of the issue.They stood on both sides of the dining table, their eyes full of anger.Annette's phone rang. She bent over and took out her phone from her bag to pick it up.Marcus' voice came from the other side of the line. "Annette, where are you?""What do you want?""Can't I call you if there's nothing?""F

    The next day, after breakfast, the doctor came to check on Connor again. Annette went to work after she made sure that he was OK.However, she didn't go to work for two days and had no idea that there was big news at the university.The matter of Matilda pursuing Connor was exposed by someone.This weekend, people made fun of Matilda, the cutest girl on campus. Annette was the last person to hear about the news, but people thought she was the one who posted this issue on the forum.In the office, Annette was sitting in front of her desk. She checked the posts on the forum and had mixed feelings.There should be evidence if they were so sure that she did it.But people simply assumed that Annette was the one who did it.The comment said, "The four student instructors are all suspicious. But Annette was the most suspicious one because she used to be the cutest girl on campus. She could definitely understand how Matilda felt at that time. That was why Annette felt jealous when she saw Ma

    Annette took a deep breath. For the first time, she realized how difficult it was to deliver food for Connor.She walked to the door of the office. When Hari saw her, he quickly got up and said, "Ms. Hall, you are finally here. Mr. Norman has been waiting for you. Please come in."When Annette pushed open the door and entered Connor's office, Connor's face darkened."You really enjoy chatting with Zachary. I called you more than an hour ago and you just arrived. Aren't you afraid that I will be hungry?"Annette was not angry. She said, "It has nothing to do with Zachary. After you called, I ordered food for you and came out in less than ten minutes. But when I came to the gate of the company, I met the staff of the Training Department. I was taken to the Training Department and delayed for a while. Amanda sent me up.""I think you didn't dare to come up and went to the Training Department to ask Amanda for help.""Yeah, yeah. You're so smart. Come over and eat your lunch."Connor got

    Annette felt that Zachary had made the right choice this time.So she did not say anything and just listened to him complaining.In the end, he said helplessly, "I also know that she might not give up so easily. After all, she has always said that she has gone through the most difficult times with me. How can such a person easily make her efforts in vain?""Then what are you going to do if she continues to pester you?" Annette asked.Zachary looked at her and smiled, "Since I have made such a decision, I have to pay the price. The worst outcome is I can't work here anymore. Well, I don't care how long she will keep pestering me."Annette frowned and said, "But you just came back.""I gave up a good job abroad for her. Then I'll give up my job here just to stay away from her. It's nothing. I won't mind if I have to start everything from scratch."Annette did not try to persuade him. After all, Zachary was a grown man. He had already thought it through. She had no right to interfere.Th

    If they had gone out alone to eat and had been discovered by Jennifer, she would have been the one who was beaten up.But why would Jennifer call her in this situation?Jennifer said, "I'm upset. I went through the hardest time with Zachary. Now that he is successful, he doesn't want me anymore. I knew that men were all like this, but I still felt hurt. I felt that the love I had given him for all these years was not worth it. Ms. Hall, I can't just let go like this.""Jennifer, did you call me because you wanted me to do something for you?""I just wanted you to ask him why he treated me like this. What exactly did I do wrong? Why did he have to care about other women? If I were that bad in his eyes, why did he choose to be with me back then?" Jennifer said, heartbroken.Annette thought for a moment and said awkwardly, "Jennifer, this is your business. Actually, I'm in no position to interfere.""Ms. Hall, you don't like me, right? So when you heard that I broke up with Zachary, do y

    Matilda didn't know that Connor was not looking at her, but at Annette behind her.He turned to the bodyguards and said, "Go and stop the students who are rushing out.""Yes."The bodyguards walked back to the basketball court.Connor walked up to Matilda, his face still cold and ruthless."I was chatting with the head of the school and recommended the campus belle casually. If you like me and want to be my mate simply because of that, I will be more than happy to call him and ask him to replace you."If you want to be my mate, because you are coveting the title of the Blood Moon Pack's Luna, then you'd better stop fantasizing. Let me make it clear to you. You're not good enough to be my woman.""That's not what I meant." Matilda shook her head and was about to cry. "You got me wrong. I like you because of who you are. I swear. I admire you so much."Connor sneered, "Do you know what kind of person I am?"Matilda took a deep breath. "You are handsome, gentle, kind, well-read, and a ma

    They came to the middle of the basketball court.Melissa stepped forward and took the lead in picking up the microphone. "Alright, everyone, quiet down now. As we begin today's lesson, please put your phones on silent mode."She walked over to Connor and handed him the microphone. "Alpha Connor, you may begin."Connor nodded at her, and then she walked to the side with great excitement.Standing next to Alanna, she whispered excitedly, "Alpha Connor looked at me."Alanna was unhappy. "Why did you get to be the host?""Who else? Did you want to be the host? Your voice was shaking.""Either Annette or Sara could do it."Melissa immediately said, "If you have a problem with me, just say it."Sara hurriedly said, "Enough. It's not a big deal, so just stop arguing, alright? Otherwise, Alpha Connor might hear you."Then Alanna and Melissa glanced at each other and paid attention to the lecture.Connor said, "Hello, everyone. As usual, we won't be talking about theories today, since your pro

    When they were back in the office, Melissa sighed, "Darren is putting us in a dilemma, isn't he? How are we supposed to fix this? No matter what we do, we will offend someone for sure."Alanna rolled her eyes at Melissa and said, "Then why did you say that back in his office?""None of you said anything. What could I do? At least one of us should say something after he finished, right? Otherwise, he would fire us."Alanna said helplessly, "But what should we do now? I don't want to be fired."Hearing Alanna's words, Sara looked at Annette.Sara asked, "Annette, do you have any ideas?"Those in the office looked at Annette.Annette thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I've got something."Alanna moved closer to her. "Annette, tell us. What is it?"Annette said, "The multimedia classroom is small and crowded, right? But there's plenty of room on the basketball court."As soon as she finished speaking, Alanna and Melissa looked at her with disapproving looks.Melissa said, "That's impos

    "Annette, you dare to bargain with me now?"Seeing that Connor was about to press down, Annette wanted to get up and run away.Connor had already grabbed her legs, holding her underneath.Annette was anxious. She said, "Connor, you are breaking your word.""We have a saying in the business field. All is fair in war. Countless facts have proved that promises made too easily are often unreliable. Remember it, OK? I'm teaching you stuff. As for tuition..."After he finished speaking, he pecked her lips. "A kiss will do."Seeing that he was going to take advantage of her again, Annette shouted anxiously, "I didn't ask you to teach me anything! You know what? Don't push too far! I'm still mad. I have accounts to settle with you.""Yeah? I'm all ears. Since when did I offend you?""Get off me first, and then we'll talk.""Nice try. I've seen similar tricks so many times that I stop taking them seriously after I reach ten. Now tell me."Annette was furious and thought, 'He is so good at humi
