When she got off work in the afternoon, Annette went out and got into the car sent by Connor.She thought that she was probably going back to Connor's villa.However, she found that she was unfamiliar with the route. She asked the driver in confusion, "Where are we going?""Ms. Hall, Mr. Norman told me to take you to Tomie's studio."The driver didn't know much, so Annette didn't ask more.After arriving at the destination, Annette walked in. Tomie, the owner of the studio, said to Annette, "Ms. Hall, the dress is ready. I will help put on makeup for you to attend the banquet."Annette sat down and took out her phone to call Connor.Just as Connor picked up the phone, Annette said, "Connor, what the hell is going on? What banquet are you going to attend?""It's a family party. So, just dress up," Connor said."Don't you think you should tell me first?""What difference does it make? Anyway, whether you are willing to go or not, I will bring you there."Annette hung up the phone with d
More than ten minutes later, the crowd around Randolph gradually scattered.Randolph's eyes swept over Connor.Connor said to Annette with a faint smile, "Come with me."Annette put down the food in her hand and followed Connor to Randolph."Randolph, how are you going?"Randolph patted Connor on the shoulder and said, "Well, I'm in good health. You haven't come to me for one and a half months, right?"Randolph looked at Annette and asked, "Is this your mate?"Annette waved her hand and denied it.Before she could say something, Lance's forthright laughter sounded behind her."Mr. Fletcher, you seem to be getting stronger and stronger."Hearing Lance's voice, Annette felt a little disgusted instinctively.Randolph nodded and smiled at Lance. "Alpha Lance, glad to meet you."Lance turned around and pulled Jessica over. Then, he said humbly, "Mr. Fletcher, this is my daughter, Jessica. Since she knew that she would see you today, Jessica had been happy all day."Jessica said respectfull
"Look closely, Leslie. I am Annette, not Sharon. Sharon would put up with your beating and scolding, but I wouldn't. You better show me some respect when you see me. Unlike you, I don't have much to lose. So, think twice before challenging me, and see if I'll be afraid of you."Annette stared at Leslie fiercely.For some reason, Leslie felt nervous.She thought, 'This bitch is indeed different from her cowardly mother.The determination in her eyes is terrifying.'Jessica stepped forward and grabbed Annette's hand."You shameless woman! Let go of my mother!"Annette shook off Jessica's hand. Jessica was wearing high heels. She staggered a few steps back and fell into the pool behind her.Although it was not deep, she was instantly soaked.Leslie screamed, "Annette, what are you doing? You can be mad at Jessica, but how can you push her?"Her scream got the guests' attention.Jessica stood in the water and cried. "Annette, I was only trying to protect my mother. What did I do wrong? Ho
On the way, Connor and Annette sat in the back of the car. Connor asked, "Why did you go to the other side of the yard with them?""They pulled me, and I felt that I shouldn't fight them in public. If I had known that it would be like this, I would have fought with them," Annette said indignantly.Connor smiled, "If you had fought with them, you might not be their match at all."Annette looked at him and said, "Anyway, it feels good to have someone on my side. This is the first time anyone has ever publicly believed in me unconditionally.""This has happened before, and no one believed you back then?""Yes. I went to the Black Thorn Pack once. Back then, Jessica was in the living room, and she smashed the vase that Alpha Lance liked in front of me. When Alpha Lance came out, Jessica pointed at me and said that I had broken the vase. Then Alpha Lance was about to hit me right away. They didn't even give me a chance to explain. Leslie said that the vase was expensive, and since it was b
Annette did not want to have a conflict with Fiona, so she turned around and was about to leave.However, she heard Fiona's voice coming from behind her. Fiona said, "Annette, you've been seducing Alpha Connor and refusing to let go of Kyle. Are you a two-timer or what?"Kyle said unhappily, "Mom, what are you talking about? I'm the one who is trying to get back to Annette. She doesn't even want to talk to me.""Shut up," Fiona cut it. Then she said, "What's so good about Annette? Is she worth all this? Hasn't she fooled you enough?""Stop it, Mom. Why don't you just go back to your office?" Kyle had a headache.Fiona looked at Annette with her eyes burning with anger. Fiona thought, 'I was threatened by Alpha Connor last time because of this woman.And now, Alpha Connor helps her, and even my son takes her side.Well played. Annette.'"Annette, apologize to me right now!" Fiona said angrily.Annette looked at her calmly and said, "Fiona, I think you're mistaken. It's you who should a
"Answer me first. What were you about to say to Connor?" Annette said."I was going to tell him that you hugged Kyle behind his back," Marcus said with a shrug."So, you didn't hear our conversation at all. You were just going to accuse me because of the last thing you saw?"Marcus said unhappily, "So, what were you two talking about?""That's none of your business. I just want to make one thing clear. I did nothing that I was not supposed to do.""But didn't you just tell me not to hit him?""You've already been to the police station once. Why haven't you learned your lesson?" asked Annette.He retorted, "You didn't let me hit him for my sake? Yeah, right.""Whatever you think.""Anyway, you will still piss Connor off, because Kyle hugged you back then," Marcus said stubbornly."So why would you tell Connor to upset him? Am I marrying Kyle, or did I have sex with him?" Annette said, depressed. "You know very well that I came to the infirmary because of my injury. Then do you have any
"The doctor has made a diagnosis. I don't think you would collude with the doctor and fake the medical records. You are sick, so you have to accept treatment. There is no room for discussion," Connor said coldly."Alpha Connor, you can't target me like this," Fiona said angrily.The smile on Connor's face disappeared in an instant."Target you? Since you insist on thinking so, I don't care. I have always kept my word. I warned you once, and I said it was the last warning. But you did not take it seriously.""Alpha Connor, I did it out of good intentions. Annette pestered you while seducing my son. She did not respect you at all. Otherwise, she would not pester my son at the same time. Are you going to let this woman make a fool of you?""Seduce? Kyle is not worthy of it. Also, I think you have got it wrong. It was your disappointing son who pestered Annette." Connor stood up and looked down at Fiona. "You'd better resign as soon as possible. I don't have much patience."Fiona shook he
After work in the afternoon, Annette called Connor as she walked to the school gate. She asked, "What do you want to have for dinner?""Whatever. As long as you treat me."Annette thought for a moment and said, "I'll send you an address later. Come to me."She hung up the phone and got into Leonard's car at the school gate."Leonard, we're not going home. Let's go to the Night Restaurant.""Yes, Ms. Hall."Connor arrived at the entrance of a restaurant according to the address Annette had sent him.He smiled and walked in.The waiter welcomed him warmly. "Sir, have you booked a table?""Ms. Hall booked table 3. She is here already.""Okay. Sir, please put your hand on my shoulder. I will take you in." The waiter put on a pair of night vision goggles and led Connor through two doors.Connor was led to table 3 and had a seat. Annette's eyes had adapted to the darkness. She looked up at Connor with a cute smile, but Connor could not see it."I've ordered the dishes."Connor raised his ey
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
