Chapter 168

  Annette frowned. She got up and walked to the door of the office.

  She did not see Connor. Many teachers gathered in front of the door of every office.

  Just as Annette was about to go downstairs to take a look, Connor appeared at the stairs.

  He was holding a bouquet of blue roses in his arms and walked straight to her, ignoring the gazes of others.

  Annette stood by the door, her eyes fixed on Connor's face as he approached.

  Connor handed the flowers to her. His voice was not loud, but the teachers in the next office could hear him. "Did the fake news today scare you? Don't take it to heart, okay?"

  Annette blinked and wondered, 'Is it appropriate for him to show up at this time?'

  Her heart was beating fast.

  Annette took the flowers and said, "I didn't take it seriously."

  "That's good. Let's go and have lunch together."

  Connor took Annette out of the school to a restaurant and ordered food.
