Just as she was speaking , a knock sounded at the conference room door .

She paused , turning toward the unexpected interruption .

Frasers special assistant , Mike , entered .

Ms.

Stewart , you are requested to personally report the next quarters Global Plan Project plans in Mr.

Grahams office .

Summer froze .

Her project was relatively minor .

Why did she need to report it directly to his office ? The Graham Group employees exchanged puzzled looks .

It was rare for Mr.

Graham to personally concern himself with such a small investment project .

In fact , this was the first time anyone had seen him specifically summon someone to his office for a project update .

Diana quickly recalled the circumstances of their previous contract negotiations It seemed that Summers and Mr.

Grahams relationship was far from simple .

Reacting swiftly , she explained , Ms.

Stewart , the Global Plan Project was personally approved by Mr.

Graham , so your report must go through the executive offices procedures .

Summer had no choice .

Her two vice presidents expressed their understanding and prepared to accompany her .

But Mike spoke firmly , Mr.

Graham specifically requested Ms.

Stewart to go alone .

Summer was speechless .

Following Mike , Summer arrived at Frasers office .

Mike knocked respectfully .

A deep , leisurely voice came from inside .

Come in .

Mike pushed the door open and gestured for her to enter .

Summer hesitated at the threshold , clenched her hands briefly , then released them and stepped inside .

Behind her , the door clicked shut .

She quickly realized that Fraser was not alone .

In the seating area , several men in suits were gathered , engaged in a meeting .

Fraser sat on a black leather single seater sofa , positioned with his back to the floor to ceiling window .

He wore a black dress shirt with gray trousers , his collar unbuttoned at the top , exuding effortless authority .

His long legs were casually crossed .

The other executives sat in two rows , engaged in discussion.

As the door opened , Frasers gaze lifted .

His deep , black eyes locked onto her, sharper and more piercing than usual .

His stare Impered on her for a few seconds before he looked away Chapter 225 The Price of a Billion Dollar Deal +8 Pearis But as the servicing party in this business deal , she had no choice but to cooperate .

Silently , she found a seat in the distance and waited .

Suddenly , something one of his subordinates said seemed to displease him .

Fraser let out a cold scoff .

Even from her seat .

Summer could sense the sudden tension in the room .

After nearly thirty minutes , the meeting concluded .

Once the others had left .

Summer hesitated for a moment before finally standing and approaching him .

Fraser remained in his seat , flipping through a document , seemingly oblivious to her presence .

The air around him was heavy with indifference .

Standing there awkwardly , Summer pressed her lips together and spoke in a neutral , professional tone .

Mr.

Graham .

Im here to present Stewart Groups next quarter plans for the Global Plan Project .

Only then did Fraser lift his head , casting her a fleeting glance .

With an almost dismissive gesture , he tilted his chin , signaling for her to proceed Then , he lowered his head again and turned to another page of his document .

The soft rustle of paper filled the office .

Summer felt as if she had become just another subordinate .

Someone seeking approval from her superior .

If she had known it would come to this , she would have never accepted his 1 billion investment in the first place .

All she wanted now was to finish her report and leave .

Pushing aside her discomfort , she started presenting the project update .

Halfway through her explanation , she noticed that his attention had shifted .

At some point , Fraser had stopped reading the document .

He was now resting his head against his hand , his gaze fixed intently on her .

Caught off guard .

Summer momentarily lost her train of thought .

After a long silence , his calm , indifferent voice broke through the air .

Nts lunchtime .

Lets eat first .

Before she could respond , he picked up the phone and ordered a meal to be brought in .

Summer quickly shook her head .

Tm not hungry .

Frasers lips curled slightly , his tone unreadable .

I am .

If youre not hungry , then just sit and watch me eat .
