Annette returned to her apartment while chatting pleasantly with Connor.
The next day, Connor left Akron for New York for a business trip.
He didn't come back for three days, and Annette felt lonely.
The loneliness came from the depths of her soul.
In fact, that was something she feared the most.
Annette dared not to accept Connor for a reason. She was afraid that one day after she got used to having him around if he hurt her, she wouldn't survive the trauma.
She was afraid that the pain would kill her.
She turned on her phone and read the headlines of entertainment news these days.
None of them had clarified their relationship.
The rumors about Connor and Daphne were heating up.
Daphne was advertising her latest drama. When she was interviewed, the reporters asked about her and Connor, yet she only smiled and did not answer.
Her attitude stirred media curiosity.
