Connor stayed at Annette's house and didn't leave. The next morning, when the alarm clock rang, Annette reached out her hand and turned it off.

She got up and went to the living room. The sound of rustling water kept coming from the bathroom.

Then, the door of the bathroom opened.

Connor was wrapped in Annette's bath towel with a mickey mouse pattern on it.

As he dried his hair, he looked at her and asked, "You are up."

Annette shifted her gaze away from his six-pack abs.

As her gaze moved up, she saw a large bruise on Connor's shoulder.

She frowned and said, "Your shoulder is bruised. I wonder which part of your sentence is true and which part is false?"

Connor was calm. "Everything I said to you is true. I am indeed injured, but it is not so serious."

He pointed to the kitchen and asked, "What's for breakfast?"

Annette snorted. "Nothing!"

She turned around and entered the kitchen with a sullen face.

During breakfast, Annette thought of something. "What do you think of Jessica?"

    Annette spoke bluntly, which made Fiona a little embarrassed.Fiona said unhappily, "I heard that you went to provoke Kyle again today. We had an agreement that you would stay away from Kyle after I let you teach at the university. Don't you remember it?"Annette sneered. Fiona was framing her deliberately.She called Connor over and said so in front of Connor. She wanted Connor to think that Annette was not a good mate.Normally, Annette may endure it.However, she thought of what Fiona had done to her in the past and knew that Connor would not let her suffer. So, she decided not to put up with it anymore.She looked at Fiona calmly and smiled, "Fiona, I think you haven't heard everything. Since you try to judge me from people's gossip, then you should at least keep an open mind. There are surveillance cameras in the cafeteria. You can go and check the footage. Then, you'll see what really happened. Also, Kyle may be outstanding in your eyes. But, let me remind you again. I don't see

    Annette said, "The relationship between me and Connor is not what you think.""Then what is it?" Austin asked."Friends. He is a pretty good friend of mine."Austin sighed, "Naïve. You treat him as a friend. How about him?"Annette fell silent.Austin continued, "He doesn't really regard you as his mate. He only wants to have sex with you. Once he succeeds, he will leave you."He seemed to think of something and suddenly said, "Don't tell me you two have already...""Austin!" Annette frowned and said unhappily, "Don't talk nonsense."Austin heaved a sigh of relief. "I knew you wouldn't do such a foolish thing."Annette knew that Austin was concerned about her.However, she felt awkward when he said those words.Even so, she nodded and said, "I got it."After dinner, they left the restaurant.Austin took Annette back to her apartment.Just as Annette was about to get out of the car, Austin said, "Annette, I have something to ask you."Annette unfastened her seatbelt and looked at him.

    Connor looked at Annette. He asked curiously, "Why were you in a bad mood?"Annette felt guilty.Connor said, "Tell me.""I just miss my mother. When I miss her, I don't want to talk to others." Annette found a casual excuse.She continued, "You are back. What about your business? I didn't expect it to affect you.""I have an idea. Do you want to make it up to me?" Connor said.Annette was confused. "How?"Connor picked her up.Annette was anxious. "You are always like this."Connor walked into the bedroom and put her on the bed.He hugged her and closed his eyes. He was a little tired and said, "I'm tired. I want to hold you to sleep."Annette did not say more. Soon, she heard Connor's even breathing.When Connor woke up, Annette was cooking in the kitchen.Annette said to him, "By the way, have you seen the news?""No, are there any big events?""Someone dug up on Daphne and it was all over the Internet overnight," Annette said."Does it have anything to do with me?" Connor said non

    When Annette returned to the office, Sara looked at her and said, "Annette, why did you come so late? Kyle wanted to meet you at his office."Annette was not surprised.With the air-conditioner on, it was a bit chilly in Kyle's office.Kyle asked with a cold face, "You are late today. Any explanations?""I am not late. My student got sick. So, I took him to the hospital and just sent him to the infirmary.""Oh? Which student?""Marcus."Kyle said unhappily, "Annette, you have become cunning.""I am telling the truth. You can go to him and confirm it.""Do you think you can get away with the punishment so easily?""Do whatever you want. Anyway, Connor said that it doesn't matter even if I lose my job." Annette shrugged indifferently."Annette!" Kyle shouted.Annette said coldly, "By the way, don't ask me to come to your office alone again. Last time, you pestered me in the cafeteria, and Fiona called Connor to school to complain about me."Kyle clenched his fists and said, "I didn't kn

    Annette and Zack walked further away, and it was quieter around.Zack looked a little nervous. He said, "Annette, I know your concerns. You may think that I am not reliable enough. Don't worry. I am Alpha's son, and I will be Alpha in the future. If you become my mate, you will be my Luna. Even if I meet my real mate one day, I will reject her."Annette interrupted him and said, "Zack, I think you are quite outstanding, but I am sorry. I have a mate."After that, Annette turned and left under Zack's disbelieving eyes.When Annette returned to the office, Sara looked her up and down.Annette smiled, "Sara, are you curious about the result?""I think you won't accept him.""Why did you have such thoughts?""Well, from what I know about you."Annette nodded."Why did you walk away with him? People may talk," Sara asked with concern.Annette shrugged and smiled, not saying anything else.Because there were too many people around, almost everyone knew and was discussing the matter.Everyon

    Connor's words made Annette upset. She was unhappy since Connor didn't believe her. Now, she felt that Connor was making a big fuss over such a small issue.Annette slightly raised her voice. She complained, "Connor, don't mess around. I can handle such a small matter. If you are unhappy about it, that is your problem. You'll have to deal with it yourself. You have no right to blame others for it. You are now having a scandal with Daphne. Will Daphne's fans have to fight you?""Are they capable enough to do so?" Connor snorted."You can do whatever you want just because you're powerful, right?" Annette looked displeased. "You're obviously the one who messed it up."Annette somehow accused him. Connor was annoyed, and his expression was also displeased."You said that Daphne has nothing to do with you, and the rumors about you and her have been everywhere, yet none of you has stood out to clarify it. People may think that you have admitted that you are in a relationship. So, for those

    "Things between Sharon and I are not as simple as you think." Lance frowned and said, "I'm telling you this for your own good.""Put away your so-called kindness. I don't need them at all," Annette said."Annette." Lance sighed, "I have lived a hard life these years. I am getting old but still have to be in the position. Actually...""It was not my fault. It has nothing to do with me," Annette cut in. "Other than that, do you have anything else to say?"Lance knew how stubborn Annette was. He nodded. "Alright. Since you don't want to leave, you can stay in Akron. You have to remember that you are a hybrid. Alpha Connor won't accept you to be his mate. In the end, you will only get hurt.""You still want to talk about this? If that's the case, you can shut up. I've always been stubborn," Annette said indifferently."I want to tell you that you and Connor are not a good match. Leave the opportunity to Jessica. Jessica is more suitable to be the Luna of the Blood Moon Pack Luna," Lance s

    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

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
