His Hybrid Mate

Chapter 119

　　At noon, Annette rested in the office for a while. Someone knocked on the door and came in. "Annette, Mr. Crace asked you over."

　　"Okay, thank you."

　　After the person left, the three people in the office all looked at Annette.

　　Alanna said, "Annette, what's going on?"

　　Annette shook her head and said, "I don't know, either. I'll check it out."

　　She walked out calmly as if nothing had happened.

　　She was a little puzzled. Why was Darren looking for her so openly?

　　She arrived at Darren's office, and Darren said with concern, "Annette, were you OK after you got home the night before yesterday?"

　　Annette shook her head and smiled. "I'm fine. I just had a headache when I woke up after sleeping the whole night. Mr. Crace, what can I do for you?"

　　"I don't know if you have heard that our school is going to make a brochure."

　　Annette nodded. "I heard people mention it at noon."

　　"Are you interested in participating in it?"

　　Annette asked in confusion, "What can I do? Or do I need to prepare anything?"

　　Darren smiled and said, "What I mean is, you are involved in it as a student representative."

　　Annette was surprised. She smiled, "I have graduated. How can I be a student representative?"

　　"Our school wants a good-looking straight-A student. You are quite suitable," Darren said with a smile.

　　Annette shook her head. "Sorry, Mr. Crace. I don't intend to participate in it."

　　"Don't rush to give up the opportunity. The male student we selected is Marcus. The images of you and him are quite good. In addition, you know each other and will work together just fine."

　　Annette immediately said, "If Marcus agrees, I will cooperate with him. If he doesn't, can you find someone else?"

　　Annette thought that if Marcus helped her refuse Darren, she wouldn't need to offend him.

　　Darren nodded and smiled. "It's done. Marcus has already agreed."

　　Annette was shocked. "What? No way."

　　Marcus kept a low profile all the time and wouldn't take part in such a thing.

　　"At first, he did not agree. Later, he heard that he only needed to take two photos. He proposed a condition, and we promised him."

　　"What condition?"

　　"He wants two people he admires to take part in the basketball game."

　　Annette looked at Darren and didn't know what to say. Did she lose her bet, or was she a little unlucky recently?

　　"Annette, you can go back. Someone will inform you about the time and location of the filming."

　　Annette had no choice but to nod.

　　After she walked out of Darren's office, she saw a girl walk past.

　　The girl saw Annette and suddenly stopped. She turned around and said, "You must be Annette."

　　Annette looked at the girl carefully and could not recognize her at all.

　　"Yes. And you are?"

　　"You don't remember me? I am Darren's daughter, Judica. We met the night before yesterday at the restaurant where you had a meal with my dad and Alpha Connor."

　　Annette nodded in embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Crace. I was a little drunk at that time."

　　Judica patted Annette on the shoulder and said, "You should drink less in the future. Otherwise, you will be in trouble if you get drunk outside."

　　Annette was embarrassed. "Thanks for the heads up."

　　After that, she nodded to Judica and was about to leave.

　　Judica said, "I heard that you and Marcus are close. Is it true?"

　　Annette thought in confusion, 'Why did she mention Marcus? Did she know him?'

　　Seeing Annette's suspicious eyes, Judica said, "Oh, don't get me wrong. I heard it from my dad."

　　Annette smiled, "Yeah. I guess I'm kinda close to Marcus. That was why Mr. Crace took me out for a meal. He wanted me to help him get Alpha Connor's sponsorship."

　　Judica walked up to her and asked, "How is your relationship with Alpha Connor?"

　　Annette was a little confused. "Not bad."

　　Judica grabbed her wrist excitedly and said, "That night, my dad planned to introduce me to Alpha Connor. As a result, you got drunk and messed up our arrangements. I admire Alpha Connor very much. If there is a chance, can you introduce me to him?"

　　From the look on Judica's face, Annette knew that she didn't just admire Connor.

　　Why did Darren introduce his daughter to Connor?

　　Annette felt a little unhappy.

　　Seeing her in a daze, Judica patted her and asked, "Annette?"

　　"What?" Annette came back to her senses.

　　"What are you thinking about?"

　　"Nothing. I was thinking about work."

　　"Remember what I said to you just now."

　　"Yeah, we'll see."

　　"There will be a good chance soon. My dad said that our school invited Alpha Connor to be a guest lecturer. Alpha Connor has agreed to it and is adjusting his schedule."

　　Annette was surprised. Connor had never mentioned it to her.

　　Judica was a little excited. She said, "In the future, I will see him often in school. When the time comes, you can ask Marcus to introduce him to me so that I'll have more chances to be around him."

　　"A lecturer? Alpha Connor? He is still so young. What can he teach?" Annette was a little puzzled.

　　Seeing that Annette did not know anything, Judica thought disdainfully, 'I guess I have overestimated her.

　　That's right. She knows Marcus, but it doesn't mean that she can talk to Alpha Connor directly. After all, Alpha Connor was so high and mighty.'

　　Judica shook her head and said, "Forget it. Just ignore my proposal."

　　She turned around and walked proudly to Darren's office, and didn't want to waste time with an insignificant person like Annette.

　　Annette looked at Judica's back and then turned to leave.
