Love Drug Novel

Chapter 20 Pudding , Your Mom Has No Heart Fraser had just finished signing his name on a document when he heard a voice .

Looking up , he saw that the woman standing in front of him was not Summer Stewart .

His brows furrowed .

His voice dropped , laced with cold impatience .

Who are you ? Finished .

Margaret had been brimming with excitement at the thought of meeting Fraser in person .

But the moment he lifted his head , she was completely stunned .

This man his pale skin , deep set eyes , straight nose , sharply defined features … His gaze was narrow and piercing , his lips thin yet sensual .

And today , he wore a simple gray dress shirt with the top two buttons undone , his sleeves casually rolled up , revealing perfectly toned arms .

As he moved , faint blue veins became visible beneath his skin , exuding an effortless sense of power .

Margarets mind spiraled .

If these hands held her waist … if those lips kissed her … The thought alone sent heat rushing through her entire body .

I … Im Margaret .

The Stewart Groups daughter , she stammered .

Fraser shot her a glance , his eyes filled with disinterest .

This is the Stewart familys daughter ? What a joke .

Tacky .

Ordinary .

Boring .

Margaret nodded eagerly .

Thats me ! The only daughter of the Stewart family ! Fraser let out a cold chuckle .

Play the role of a counterfeit long enough , and you start believing it yourself .

Margarets face stiffened in embarrassment .

She quickly tried to explain .

Mr.

Graham , its not what you think ! Its true that I dont share blood ties with the Stewarts , but I was raised by them for twenty years .

My upbringing , my values everything about me is the Stewart family .

Fraser didnt care .

He had little patience for people he wasnt interested in .

Had he known this was the Stewart daughter requesting a meeting , he never would have let her up .

Why are you here ? His tone was sharp , dismissive .

Say your piece and leave .

Chapter 20 Pudding , Your Mom Has No Heart 藏 会 53 % Finished She thought Frasers disdain was because she wasnt a real Stewart .

And once again , resentment surged inside her .

If Summer had never come back three years ago , no one would have called her a fake .

But she quickly pushed those thoughts aside and refocused on her real goal .

Mr.

Graham , the Stewart Group has a Global Project that needs additional investment .

I was hoping to secure backing from the Graham Group .

Fraser leaned back in his chair , arms crossed , utterly nonchalant .

And why would I invest ? Margaret was prepared for this .

She might not work at the Stewart Group , but she had eyes and ears everywhere .

She pulled a document from her bag and placed it on his desk .

This was the investment proposal that Summer had prepared the one Margaret had someone steal from her office .

The details were thorough .

Even Margaret had to admit the project seemed promising .

Otherwise , she wouldnt have lowered herself to using Summers work .

Mr.

Graham , this is the full proposal .

The Stewart Group has been preparing for this project for two years .

The expected return rate is thirty five percent .

I know the Graham Group invests in high potential ventures -this one wont disappoint you .

Fraser took the document , casually flipping through a few pages .

It was indeed a solid proposal clear , well structured , and highly profitable .

But his mind drifted elsewhere .

If the Stewart Group is in need of funding , why hasnt Summer come to me ? Had she gone to Trevor instead ? Annoyance flickered in his chest .

His expression darkened .

He tossed the document onto his desk .

You think just because the Graham Group invests in good projects , I should throw money at anything with a high return rate ? Ms.

Stewart , are you stupid ? Have you considered that I only invest when I feel like it ? Margaret was completely caught off guard .

She opened her mouth but had no idea how to respond .

Fraser was already done with her .

I have a meeting .

Someone , show her out .

Margaret panicked .

She had finally secured this meeting she couldnt let it end like this .

2/4 21:48 Wed , 12 Mar NNN .

Chapter 20 Pudding , Your Mom Has No Heart She quickly blurted out , Mr.

Graham ! If youre not interested in business , then lets not talk about investments .

Ive always admired you why dont we have dinner instead ? Fraser smirked , full of disdain .

53 % Finished There are people lined up from Havenbrook to overseas just waiting to have dinner with me .

What rank are you ? At that moment , Xylia rushed in , grabbed Margarets arm , and subtly signaled for her to leave .

Lets go , she whispered .

Margaret hesitated , stealing one last glance at Frasers tall , broad shouldered figure .

Reluctantly , she turned and left .

Once the door shut , Fraser pulled out a cigarette , rolling it between his fingers before finally lighting it.

He took a deep drag , but even the sharp burn of nicotine didnt ease the irritation in his chest .

Halfway through , he crushed the cigarette into the ashtray , unfinished .

Standing abruptly , he grabbed his jacket and strode out of his office .

On his way out , he crossed paths with Xylia , who had just returned from sending Margaret off .

Xylia straightened immediately , lowering her gaze .

Mr.

Graham .

Fraser halted , his tone lazy yet sharp .

This is the Stewart family daughter you mentioned ? Xylia blinked .

Wait … was there another Ms.

Stewart ? Y Yes , sir .

Margaret is the Stewart familys daughter … Fraser scoffed .

I dont like working with idiots .

Ada , retrain Xylia before she resumes her duties .

.

With that , he strode off toward his private elevator .

Ada , standing nearby , nodded .

Understood .

Xylia wanted to cry .

Ada sighed .

Looks like Mr.

Graham really hates the Stewart family .

She picked up the phone and made a call to the front desk .

From now on , if any Ms.

Stewart from the Stewart Group comes to see Mr.

Graham reject them outright .

Fraser drove back to Skycrest Villa .

The moment he stepped into the garden , a giant fluffy Samoyed came bounding toward him .

3/4 Chapter 20 Pudding , Your Mom Has No Heart He reached out , catching the massive white ball of fur in his arms .

You still think youre a puppy , huh ? he muttered , cradling it with a hint of exasperation .

The Samoyed barked in protest , as if offended by the accusation .

Fraser chuckled , ruffling its head before setting it down .

Taking a brush from the dog sitter , he dismissed them with a wave .

Skycrest Villa staff all knew that Fraser doted on this dog beyond reason .

Finished .

Despite just being a dog sitter , Hailey was at the top of the staff hierarchy simply because she took care of Pudding .

The vast estate was bathed in golden sunlight .

A winding stone path led through the lush greenery to a crystal blue swimming pool .

In the center of the garden , a strikingly handsome man knelt beside a fluffy white Samoyed , brushing its fur .

Pudding , usually full of energy , sat obediently at Frasers feet today .

As if sensing his bad mood , it didnt roll around or play it simply licked his hand occasionally , offering quiet comfort .

Fraser absentmindedly combed its fur .

Pudding , your mom has no heart .

He scoffed .

She broke her childhood promise , found herself another man … If she sees you , will she even recognize you ? He paused , then laughed at himself .

No , she didnt even recognize me .

Why would she recognize you ? Fraser gave Pudding a once over and sighed .

Youve gotten fat .

You used to be this tiny , scrappy little thing .

Now youre built like a damn lion .

If I was hoping youd remind Summer of the past , I guess thats a lost cause .

Pudding barked in protest .

Meanwhile , Summer suddenly sneezed .

Whos talking bad about me ? 匪
