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

    Connor stared at Annette and asked, "How are you doing? Do you need any help?"Annette said disdainfully, "No. I am not a sour loser."Alina smiled helplessly, "Ms. Hall, come on. Who are you mad at? It was just a game. No one took it seriously."Connor pointed to the table. "Alina, just go back to your seat. I'll stay here with her.""I don't think so. Why don't you go over? I'll stay here with Ms. Hall."Seeing the seesaw battle between Alina and Connor, Annette somehow felt that she was a third wheel.Annette said, "Why don't you guys stay here, and I'll go rest over there?"Connor pulled a chair over, sat down beside Annette, looked at her, and said, "My kitten is mad. Come here. Let me say something sweet to you."Annette got goosebumps all over her body.On the other hand, Alina was a little embarrassed. She smiled and stood up, "You guys stay here. I'll go."After Alina left, Annette whispered to Connor, "Aren't you worried that she might get upset?""As long as you are not ups

    "Ms. Hall, I don't know which pack you're from. I believe that a woman as fine as you must be an Alpha's daughter," Lucas said politely.Hearing Lucas' words, Annette clenched her fists slightly.She said, "I am a rogue."As soon as she finished speaking, a trace of surprise flashed across Lucas' face.While they were silent, Connor suddenly said, "Lucas, Ann's parents are gone, so I suggest that we drop this subject from now on."Lucas' expression returned to normal. He nodded and said, "Ms. Hall, I'm sorry. I was being rude."Annette smiled and shook her head, indicating that it was fine.Lucas raised his wrist to check the time and said, "It's getting late. Shall we get in and rest?"Connor got up, pushed Lucas' wheelchair, and said to Annette, "Get inside and tell Alina that I'm going to push Lucas back. Ask her to get ready.""OK." Annette entered the villa first.When she reached the door of Lucas' room, she knocked on the door, but no one answered.She pushed the door open and

    "Will Ms. Hall be OK?" Alina asked again.Connor replied cautiously, "I won't let anything happen to her."Connor's words made Alina's heartache again. She knew she was not Connor's mate, yet somehow she was still upset.Since she had never seen such a side of Connor before.After Alina left, Connor returned to the room and hugged Annette until dawn.When the sunlight shone into the room, Annette opened her eyes slightly.She wriggled and realized that Connor was holding her in his arms.Connor opened his eyes at the same time as well. He held her tightly and asked, "How are you feeling now? Better?"She nodded."What happened last night? Did something happen between you and Alina?" Connor asked."No. Nothing happened," Annette denied."Then why did you scream in fear?" Connor asked, puzzled.Annette didn't look into Connor's eyes. She looked away and finally said, "It's my own problem."Connor looked at her and asked, "Do you have to keep secrets from me?""Is there anyone in this wo

    After work, Annette arrived at the restaurant that Austin mentioned.Austin was already waiting at the entrance."Why are you so early?" Annette asked with a smile."To have dinner with you, I spared some time in advance. Let's go. I have booked a table."They entered the restaurant and then sat by the window.Austin asked, "Where have you been working recently? The day before yesterday, I went to the coffee shop you worked at. The boss said that you no longer worked there."Annette was stunned for a second. She replied, "I'm working at my friend's company. But, I can't tell you more about it.""Oh, yeah? Don't tell me you went to the bar again." Austin asked.Annette shook her head. "No. I am going to teach at the university soon. I will not go there again. I don't want to get into trouble again."Austin smiled and took out a set of keys and placed them in front of her.Annette frowned and asked, "What's this?""I bought a house for you in the residential area next to your school. So

    "Just save it and stop telling yourself that you are some lofty woman. You and I are the same. What makes you think you are better than me?" Catherine said with a ferocious look."I never said that I was better than you. I kept my distance from you because you used me before. And I won't be friends with a person like you."Annette glared at Catherine coldly. She passed around Catherine, walked out of the lounge, and returned to her desk.She would leave the Norman Group in ten days.So, she had made up her mind.In these ten days, she had to keep a distance from everyone.Catherine snorted disdainfully, "A pretentious woman."At noon, Curtis passed by Annette's desk after he returned from training.He knocked on her desk.Annette raised her head. Seeing that Curtis was smiling at her, she got a little alert."Curtis, what do you think?""Let's have lunch together. There is a new restaurant opposite our company. I heard that it is not bad."His words attracted the attention of several

    In the evening, Annette returned home alone.She planned to order a pizza.At nine o'clock in the evening, just as Annette was about to go to bed, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach.She rubbed her stomach and still felt uncomfortable.Suddenly, she felt nauseated, so she quickly ran to the bathroom.She suffered from vomiting and diarrhea all night, and in the end, she felt tightness in her chest and dizziness.Unfortunately, she wasn't getting better.At ten o'clock, her phone rang.She turned around weakly and picked up the phone."Are you asleep?" Connor asked."Not yet," Annette replied weakly."Why do you sound so strange?""Nothing. I'm just a bit sleepy. I was about to sleep."After she finished speaking, she felt nauseated again.Not wanting him to notice anything, she simply hung up and ran into the bathroom.Then Annette lay on the bed. She felt cramps in her stomach, so she rolled over and curled herself into a ball.The pain was killing her.Suddenly, the doorbell ra

    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
