Love Drug Novel

Chapter 11 Peyton Jumps Into the Pool Summer wasnt actually giving Trevor a chance .

She knew perfectly well that he would never choose her over Peyton .

The moment Peyton had any kind of episode , Trevor would drop everything for her .

Finished She remembered her own birthday this year .

She had been about to blow out the candles and make a wish when Trevor got a call from Peyton .

Without hesitation , he left .

Leaving her and a room full of friends awkwardly staring at the uneaten cake .

Meanwhile .

Peyton had confidently entered the Stewart familys banquet hall with a proper invitation .

Julias face immediately darkened .

Who let her in ? What the hell is wrong with you people ? The servants shrank back , none of them daring to answer .

With an air of authority , Julia stormed over and blocked Peytons path , her voice sharp .

Miss Smith , this is the Stewart familys private event .

What exactly are you doing here ? Peyton stood there , completely unbothered .

Her tone was perfectly polite .

Mrs.

Stewart , hello .

Im here to see Summer .

Julia looked her up and down , sizing her up with disdain .

A cheap , manipulative little homewrecker .

Julias voice was dripping with contempt .

Mrs.

Stewart ? The mere sound of you calling me that is an insult .

The Stewart family does not welcome you .

Leave immediately , before I have security throw you out .

By the poolside , Trevor and Summer could see everything through the floor to ceiling windows .

Julia was standing there with the servants , looking like she was bullying the poor , weak Peyton , They couldnt hear the conversation , but it wasnt hard to guess what Julia was saying .

Summer watched the scene with amusement before shifting her gaze to Trevor .

His expression didnt change , but his brow furrowed ever so slightly .

Summer knew him too well .

That was the prelude to his anger .

Sure enough , Peytons eyes darted around until she spotted him by the pool .

1/5 21:44 Wed , 12 Mar Chapter 11 Peyton Jumps Into the Pool She moved gracefully despite her haste .

Tonight , she wore a white spaghetti strap dress , a soft pink knitted shawl draped over her shoulders .

Finished Her face was pale , her long hair flowing as she ran .

Every detail , from her makeup to her delicate outfit , was meticulously planned to perfection .

Breathlessly , she called out .

Trevor .

Then , as if suddenly noticing Summers presence , she forced a warm , friendly smile .

Summer .

Trevors expression remained unreadable .

His voice was low .

Why are you here ? Peyton bit her lip .

I came to apologize to Summer about the wedding .

I didnt realize the Stewart family was hosting an event tonight .

Came looking for Summer ? To apologize ? How ridiculous .

If Peyton really wanted to apologize , why wouldnt she do it privately ? Why show up at the Stewart familys banquet ? Peyton knew perfectly well that Summer didnt live here .

And yet , she had come anyway , with a formal invitation in hand .

Which meant she had planned this from the very beginning .

Summer didnt bother exposing her lie just yet .

Julia , who had followed Peyton outside with the servants , was fuming .

She was just about to call for security when she noticed Trevor .

Gritting her teeth , she held herself back .

Julias voice was cold .

Miss Smith , today is an important day for our family .

If you have no business here , I suggest you leave .

Peyton completely ignored Julia .

Instead , she lifted her tearful eyes to Trevor , looking like a lost fawn helpless , vulnerable , making anyone watching instinctively want to protect her .

Trevor , am I interrupting ? she asked softly .

Im so sorry .

If I had known tonight was a special occasion , I never would have come .

Summer crossed her arms , smirking .

She didnt say anything .

She was curious how long Trevor could hold back .

Julia , however , was losing patience fast .

This girl was still plaving innocent ? 21:44 Wed , 12 Mar NNN Chapter 11 Peyton Jumps Into the Pool Finished Please .

Back in her day , Julia could crush two of these manipulative little actresses without breaking a sweat .

And Peyton thought she could play games here ? What a joke .

Julia snapped .

Guards , escort Miss Smith out immediately ! At her command , several tall , burly security guards stepped forward to remove Peyton from the premises .

But Trevors cold , sharp gaze swept over them .

Under his powerful aura , the guards hesitated and instinctively stepped back .

Trevors voice was firm .

Your health isnt great .

Ill have my driver take you back to the hospital .

Peytons eyes widened in disbelief .

She looked up at him , her expression heartbreakingly innocent , tears threatening to fall .

But she didnt dare argue .

Instead , she turned to Summer , her voice trembling .

Summer .

Im so sorry .

Please dont be mad at Trevor .

Im the one whos sick .

The wedding was my last wish -I never wanted to cause problems between you two .

Please , tell me what I can do to make it up to you .

She looked pitiful , almost saintly in her self sacrifice .

It was enough to make any bystanders heart soften .

Unfortunately for her , Summer was immune to her act .

She might not love Trevor anymore , but that didnt mean she had forgotten the humiliation Peyton had made her suffer .

Her WhatsApp messages were proof .

Message # 999 : Summer , you will always be a pathetic loser in my hands .

Trevor spent the night with me again .

You must be so lonely waiting for him , huh ? Hahaha ! And that was just the beginning .

Summers smirk deepened .

Her tone was casual , almost amused .

Alright .

If you jump into the pool , Ill forgive you .

Julia raised a brow , watching her daughter with interest .

Finally , Summer wasnt letting herself be bullied .

But then she frowned .

21:44 Wed , 12 Mar NNN · Chapter 11 Peyton Jumps Into the Pool Why wasnt she handling this privately ? Why provoke Peyton in front of Trevor ? 54 % Finished- Fool .

Didnt she know that this was exactly how men developed their protective instincts ? By now , several guests had wandered over , drawn in by the tension .

The fiancée versus the first love .

If he would win ? Trevors expression darkened further , his voice filled with warning .

Summer , if youre angry about the wedding , take it out on me .

Theres no need to do this .

Summer looked at him calmly , then smiled mockingly .

Trevor , youre already this distressed ? Then why bother saying all those sweet words to me carlier ? Did you want me to think you still cared ? Peyton stole a glance at the massive rectangular pool casily over a thousand square feet .

She calculated her options .

Her health wasnt the greatest , but her heart had been doing well lately .

Besides , it was summer .

The water wouldnt be too cold .

And she knew how to swim .

Most importantly , Summer was an idiot .

Did she really think making her jump in would do anything except push Trevor further away ? Peyton decided to take a risk .

Ill do it.

She nodded , her voice full of determination .

Summer , if this is what it takes for you to forgive me , then Ill do it .

With that , she took a deep breath and leapt forward .

With a loud splash , she hit the water , sending waves rippling across the surface .

The crowd gasped .

This was getting good .

Then someone muttered , Wait ..

is Peyton sinking ? I heard her health isnt great .

What if she drowns ? Almost immediately , another loud splash .
