"OMG! It can't be that bitch Lena, right? Didn't she get someone to bully you last time?" Roxanne suddenly said.Annette said indifferently, "It should be fine. I will be careful. Don't worry."After hanging up the phone, Annette looked at Connor.She said, "Mr. Norman. If there is nothing else, I'm going up now.""Who were the bad girls you just mentioned?" Connor asked.Annette shook her head and replied, "I don't know. Roxanne told me that a few girls rushed into my dormitory to look for me."Connor raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems that you have offended someone."Annette did not say more. She opened the door, yet she didn't expect Connor to step into the corridor first.She felt a little strange and remained where she was.Connor turned around and asked, "Aren't you coming in?""Mr. Norman, are you going to my place?" Annette thought about it and said, "I don't intend to invite a man to my home.""I don't intend to visit your home. I just want to make sure it is safe up there
Annette started working on her thesis. She was focused and completely ignored the person behind her.After a while, she checked the time on her computer, only to find that it was half past eleven.She took off her earphones and was about to say something. But then, she noticed that Connor had already left.Annette got up and stretched herself. She saw a note on the table.She walked over and picked up the note. It read, "Sleep early. Come to my house for dinner tomorrow. We will celebrate Marcus' graduation from high school."She smiled, crumpled the note into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.The next day, just as Annette entered the school building, she was caught up by Roxanne.Roxanne tugged at her arm and whispered, "Have you heard of it?""What?" Annette looked at Roxanne in confusion."Just check the school forum once in a while, OK? That bitch is pregnant.""What? You mean Lena is pregnant?" Annette was very surprised.If two werewolves were not each other's mates, it w
"As you said, you will chat with Kyle. Now, you are sitting opposite me, but why are you only answering my questions?" Connor asked, unwilling to give up.Annette replied calmly, "Because he used to be my mate. Isn't it normal for me to talk to him?"Her words made Connor unhappy. He wanted to change her and conquer her.If he made it, the development of the Blood Moon Pack and the Black Thorn Pack would be more interesting.Marcus ran out of the room. "Alpha Connor, Lucas is back. He is almost here."Connor frowned and cast a glance at Annette. He said with a bit of displeasure, "Why didn't he tell us in advance?""Lucas was worried about my exam, so he came back directly," Marcus explained.There was a rumor about Lucas and Connor not getting along with each other.Lucas had been attacked by rogues at the border of the Blood Moon Pack, and his leg was injured. What was worse, the rogues had used poison, so Lucas's injury could not be healed.It was said that the attack was Connor's
Connor smiled disapprovingly. He looked at Annette and said, "It's up to you. Anyway, I can tell the truth at any time and don't mind others' gossip about us."Although they were at loggerheads, the way they talked to each other looked intimate.Alina walked in and ran into the scene.Annette glanced at Alina and rolled her eyes at Connor in embarrassment. She said softly, "You are hurting me."Connor kissed her on the cheek and said, "How about this?"Annette's face instantly turned red. She pouted and said, "Stop messing with me. They are watching us."Connor smiled at her lovingly. "Don't be shy. They are my family."Alina stopped in her tracks because it had been a long time since she had seen Connor smile so gently.Was Annette so special to him?Marcus pushed Lucas in, and they sat down around the dining table.Connor said, "Dwayne, go get a bottle of red wine."Dwayne fetched a bottle of red wine and served it.Dwayne was going to pour a glass of wine for Annette, then Connor r
The driver started the car and drove away from Connor's villa.Thinking of what had happened today, Annette sighed gloomily and covered her face with her hands.Connor turned to look at her and asked, "What happened? Are you feeling unwell?"After she heard his voice, Annette could no longer remain calm.She said to the driver, "Leonard, please pull over."Leonard thought that she was not feeling well and hurriedly stopped the car by the roadside.Annette got out of the car, put her hands around her mouth, and shouted forcefully at the passing cars.Connor held back his laughter and thought, 'She probably wants to beat me up.'Just now, Annette wanted to embarrass him, but she didn't expect herself to fall into a dilemma instead. Connor understood why Annette had a breakdown.He stayed in the car and watched her shouting.After that, she opened the door of the driver's seat and said to Leonard, "Leonard, let me drive."Leonard turned to look at Connor.Connor waved his hand and said,
After sending Connor off, Annette heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't want to see him again.Early the next morning, Annette cooked some macaroni for breakfast and went downstairs.She had just left the building when she saw Connor.Connor stood there, holding a bouquet in his hand with a smile.For a moment, Annette was a little fascinated by his handsome face, but soon she came back to her senses.She stopped two meters away from him and said, "Why are you here again?""To get married to you." As he spoke, Connor handed the flowers to her. "I picked these flowers for you this morning. Do you like them?"Annette took the flowers. She took a step forward to open the car door and stuffed the flowers in.After that, she returned to her previous spot and said seriously, "First of all, Mr. Norman, let me remind you that you and I..."She had only said a few words, and Connor stepped forward and kissed her lips. "I'll kiss you each time you call me Mr. Norman."Annette took a step back to
"Lena." Roxanne looked at Annette and said, "It was a done deal. There are two open positions, and your name was replaced by Lena's. Annette, you have been tricked by Kyle, Lena, and Fiona."Annette walked back to the office building.Roxanne quickly pulled her. "Ann, where are you going?""I'm going to ask Fiona.""Calm down. Fiona is targeting you on purpose." Roxanne tried to stop her.Annette pursed her lips and smiled. "Don't worry, Roxanne. I have never been this calm. It is not my style to be beaten without fighting back."Annette went to Fiona's office. She was neither heartbroken nor indignant and just looked at her calmly.Fiona took off her glasses and put them on the table. She said, "I knew you would come.""I want to know the reason why I was replaced," Annette said."Replaced? The list of candidates has not been announced before the final decision. So, technically, you weren't replaced," Fiona said mockingly.Annette was indeed naïve.She believed Fiona's words so easil
The phone in Annette's backpack rang again.Connor asked, "Did Kyle pester you again?""Did you know?" Annette did not answer Connor's question but said, "I have studied very hard. People think that I am smart and talented. In fact, I worked very hard. I just wanted to fulfill my dream one day, but now, they have destroyed it.""Them? Who are they?" Connor hugged her tightly, his heart filled with anger."Fiona. She gave the position to Kyle's new girlfriend," Annette said tiredly.Connor's eyes turned serious. He thought, 'So, it was the Luna of the Crystal Pack.'"If I were replaced because I wasn't good enough for the position, I would accept it. But I can't understand why they have to destroy my future. Is it simply because I am a rogue and a hybrid?"Annette seemed to have thought of something. Then, she took two steps back from Connor's arms and looked at him."What's wrong?" Connor asked in confusion.Annette took a deep breath and said, "I almost forgot that you are the Alpha
