Love Drug Novel

Finished As soon as Summer stepped out of the hallway , she saw Jasper walking out of his office with a few secretaries and senior executives .

They had all heard Margarets scream and came out to see what was going on .

Summer glanced at Margaret behind her .

She was clenching her fists , looking furious , ready to charge at her .

An idea flashed through Summers mind .

She raised an eyebrow , quickly put on a frightened look , and darted behind Jasper .

Dad .

Dad ! Margarets acting crazy ! She suddenly tried to hit me please save me ! -You bitch , Summer ! Dont run ! Im going to ruin that face of yours today ! Margaret had been running too fast .

As soon as she rushed out of the stairwell , she didnt even have time to stop when she saw the crowd .

Jasper cared about his reputation .

Seeing Margaret drenched , reeking , and acting out of control , his face darkened .

Margaret , have you made enough of a scene ? he snapped .

Margarets anger boiled even hotter when she saw Summer hiding behind Jasper , pretending to be weak .

She took a deep breath , pointed at Summer , and shouted , Dad ! Im not making a scene ! Summer spilled coffee all over me first , and then she she took milk tea from the trash can- Summer interrupted her , her tone soft .

Thats not how it happened .

Lewis was holding the coffee , but his hand slipped a little , and a tiny bit spilled on Margaret .

She got upset and thought I told him to do it on purpose .

Then she tried to throw milk tea at me , but I dodged , and it ended up spilling all over her instead .

Lewis stood nearby , head down , carefully adding , Mr.

Stewart , I really didnt mean to spill coffee on Ms.

Margaret Summer , youre lying ! Youre making things up ! Dad , dont believe her ! It was clearly- Jaspers face turned even darker as more and more people gathered around to watch .

Enough ! Have you caused enough trouble yet ? Margaret , this is a company .

Watch your behavior .

If you keep this up , Ill have your mother cut off your allowance .

The moment she heard that , her face paled .

No more allowance ? That meant no more Hermes bags , no more Chanel clothes , and no more shopping sprees at Belvare .

Margaret clenched her teeth , unwilling but afraid Jasper would really go through with it .

She swallowed her anger and forced out , Dad , Im sorry .

I wont do it again .

Summer stood to the side , smirking .

Oh , you know how to put on an act ? Well , so do I.

Dad , I wont hold it against Margaret , she said sweetly .

What really matters right now is securing the 1/4 21:46 Wed , 12 Mar NI Chapter 18 If Summer Keeps This Up , He Might Really Drop Her Jaspers mood improved at that .

The companys affairs were his top priority .

4 Finished These little fights between his daughters werent a big deal , as long as they didnt go overboard in public .

Both of you need to focus on securing that investment , he said .

Whoever gets it will receive ten percent .

of the Stewart familys shares and Ill prioritize their future .

With that , Jasper walked off with the executives for their meeting .

Everyone else quietly returned to their offices .

As Summer walked past Margaret , she gave her a once over , wrinkled her nose , and deliberately waved a hand in front of her face .

Margaret , you stink .

If I were you , I wouldnt even show my face .

She threw Margarets own words right back at her , then walked away without looking back .

Margarets eyes burned with fury .

She gritted her teeth and flung her Hermès bag to the ground .

Summer , just wait .

Once I secure that investment , Ill rip that smug mouth of yours apart .

At Larson Group , Trevor tossed his suit jacket onto the couch and told Andrew to call the CFO , Yannick , to his office .

Less than ten minutes later , Yannick stood before Trevors desk .

He glanced at Andrew , silently asking what this was about .

Andrew shrugged .

He had no idea either .

Trevor leaned back in his chair , his cold , unreadable expression making the entire room feel tense .

After a moment , he finally spoke .

Prepare six hundred million in budget funds .

Yannick hesitated , then carefully reminded him , Mr.

Larson , our Southmere project currently requires a significant amount of cash flow .

Im afraid six hundred million is- Trevor shot him a cold glance .

Do I need your approval to use my own money ? A chill ran down Yannicks spine .

He swallowed and quickly explained , Its not that we dont have the funds .

sir .

Its just that Southmeres development zone Trevor had been in a foul mood these past few days , and his patience was running thin .

Im your boss .

Your job is to solve problems , not create them .

Understood ? Yannick nodded hastily .

Understood , Mr.

Larson .

When do you need the funds ready ? Trevor tapped his fingers on the desk twice .

Within this week .

Understood .

Ill make the preparations immediately .

After Yannick left , Andrew couldnt help but ask , Mr.

Larson , whats the money for ? It wasnt a small sum .

21:46 Wed , 12 Mar NN Chapter 18 If Summer Keeps This Up .

He Might Really Drop Her And Southmere was one of Larson Groups key projects this year .

If Trevor was diverting money from it , it had to be for something important .

Andrew had been by Trevors side for years .

He was one of the few who truly understood him .

Finished : Trevors voice carried a faint trace of irritation .

Stewart Group still needs funding for their Global Project .

Summer will come begging me soon .

Andrew was surprised .

This is about Ms.

Stewart ? Trevor and Summer had been together for five years .

Summer had never stayed cold toward him for more than a week .

It was already approaching two weeks this was serious Trevor let out a mocking chuckle .

Women always play these little games .

Breaking up , blocking numbers- just to get a mans attention .

Last night , Summer hadnt come to the bar to pick him up like she usually would .

Trevor figured she was just using a more advanced tactic this time trying to get him to care , to compromise .

Andrew thought to himself .

This isnt playing games .

What woman wouldnt be upset if her fiancé kept siding with another woman ? Summers already put up with this for too long .

But he didnt dare say that out loud .

Andrew forced a smile and cautiously said , Im not sure , sir .

Ms.

Stewart doesnt seem like the type to play games .

She doesnt ? Trevors gaze turned cold .

Shes been throwing tantrums a lot lately .

Even said she doesnt want to get married anymore .

She used to be so gentle , and now shes completely different .

Andrew hesitated , Mr.

Larson … do you really want to marry Ms.

Stewart ? Trevors tone was icy .

Did I ever say I wanted to break up ? Andrew rubbed the back of his neck .

Its just … everyone thinks you treat Ms.

Smith better than Ms.

Stewart .

Even the company employees were betting that hed end up marrying Peyton .

Trevors eyes darkened .

Peyton is gentle .

Shes fragile .

Given her health , I have a responsibility to take care of her .

Andrew hesitated before asking , And Ms.

Stewart ? Shes my fiancée .

If I didnt like her , why would I marry her ? Trevors voice cooled .

But when she throws a fit , shes really annoying .

He clearly didnt want to continue the conversation .

He had no patience for a womans emotions .

To him , the most important thing in a girlfriend or a wife- was stability , understanding , and consideration .

Finished- 21:46 Wed , 12 Mar NNN Chapter 18 If Summer Keeps This Up .

He Might Really Drop Her If Summer kept this up , he might really drop her .

Remember , if she comes looking for me these next few days , let her up to my office immediately .

Then he added , By the way , has the Belvare wedding dress designer arrived ? Andrew frowned .

Didnt you cancel that ? a Trevor gave him a cold smile .

Andrew , do I have to teach you that a canceled appointment can be rescheduled ? Andrew was speechless .
