"Are you really not afraid of Kyle targeting you?""I want to see how mean he can be. The more ruthless he is, the easier I can forget everything in the past, so no, I am not afraid," Annette said.Roxanne sighed. "That's true. If you were to quit as per others' suggestion at this time, then you wouldn't be Annette. I know that you are the perfect illustration of stubbornness.""Roxanne, anyway, don't worry about me. I'm fine. Actually, I'm not afraid of Kyle at all. I just dislike making simple things complicated. Now that he's here, I guess I just have to deal with whatever comes my way.""Alright then. If it's too much for you one day, remember, I'm always here for you," Roxanne said.Annette pursed her lips and smiled, "I know. Thank you."Just as Annette finished speaking, a figure flashed behind her. Someone put the tray on the table opposite her.She looked up and saw Marcus.She said to Roxanne, "Alright then, Roxanne, talk to you later. Bye."After hanging up the phone, she l

The next day, when Annette came to school, a freshman told her that a girl got sick last night.Annette immediately came to the girl's dormitory.Then she took the girl to the hospital. It was already noon when they returned to school.The girl's parents came to the school to check on her.After she dealt with this issue, Annette returned to the office hungry.Sara said, "Annette, Kyle just called and asked you to stop by his office when you get here."Annette frowned.She thought, 'What does Kyle want?'"I see. Sara, thank you."Annette had some water and then left.She came to Kyle's office and knocked on the door.Kyle's voice rang out as he said, "Come in."Annette pushed the door open and entered. "Kyle, you wanted to see me?"Kyle sized her up. Then he pointed coldly at the seat in front of his desk and said, "Sit."Annette walked over and sat down.The two looked at each other.Neither of them could have imagined that they would one day meet again under such circumstances.Kyle

Kyle left the office building angrily.Annette entered the office, and her three colleagues looked at her at the same time.She smiled awkwardly and said, "Good morning.""Darling, it's late. You almost got late."Annette smiled embarrassedly. "I've been tired for the past two days. I can't get up early in the morning."Sara smiled, "You have just begun to work. You will adapt to it after a few days."In the morning, Annette organized all the students' information.At noon, Sara asked, "Annette, do you have an appointment at noon?""No, Sara. Why?""Would you like to have lunch with me?" Sara waved her phone.Annette nodded and said, "Sure."She stood up and went downstairs with Sara.Just as they reached the entrance of the office building, a middle-aged woman got out of the car.She walked to Annette with two lunch boxes in her hands and said respectfully, "Ms. Hall."Annette asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"The middle-aged woman was Connor's chef."I'm here to deliver lunch t

Connor looked at Marcus calmly and said, "Go home.""But...""I told you to go home."Marcus glanced at Annette and snorted. He slammed the door and left.Annette felt a little sad for being blamed by him.Jessica said innocently, "Alpha Connor, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have come here."Before Connor could say anything, Annette shouted, "Enough. You should leave."Looking at Annette's attitude, Jessica pretended to be hurt. She sighed and stood up. "Annette, I know you don't want to see me, but we are family after all."Annette shouted, "Just leave!"Jessica sighed and walked toward the door.She opened the door and thought of something. "I met Mr. Goodman who I introduced to you the day before yesterday. He asked me why I hadn't picked up his call recently. He said that if he did something wrong, he could correct it. He told you not to ignore him. Annette, you are too stubborn. If you don't like him, you should refuse him directly."After that, she nodded pitifully at Connor and left.

"You want him for yourself. Do you think that you can do anything just because you are pretty? Annette, if I am not worthy of Alpha Connor, and so do you.""I am indeed unworthy of him, so I have never had such a bold idea. I am different from a whimsical woman like you. I know myself. In terms of wealth and power, Connor is a hundred times stronger than you. In terms of appearance and character, it is the same. If you are satisfied with your face, you wouldn't have gone through so many plastic surgeries. You dislike yourself, yet you actually expect Connor to take a fancy to you. Stop dreaming. Don't call me with a high and mighty attitude again. You are nobody."After that, Annette hung up the phone.Jessica heard the busy tone from the other side of the line, and she was so angry that she lay on the bed and screamed."Damn Annette! This isn't over!"Annette took a deep breath. She felt it was hard to breathe.She stood up and went home. She packed her luggage and went to the statio
