Love Drug Novel

Chapter 75 1 Need to Be With Her Summers phone chimed with a message .

She glanced at the screen .

It was from her assistant , Quinn , informing her that the Stewart Group had received the investment from the Graham Group .

A faint smile curved Summers lips .

She cupped his face , leaned in , and placed a light kiss on his cheek , as if offering a reward .

Thank you .

Peyton emerged from the operating room .

As soon as she opened her eyes , she saw Josh standing beside her , his gaze warm and gentle .

Josh , barely able to contain his excitement , said , Peyton , the surgery was a success .

From now on , youre a normal healthy person .

She was dressed in a hospital gown , her face still carrying the fragile air of someone who had just woken up .

Yet , with her long hair cascading down her back , she still looked delicate and pitiable .

She attempted to sit up .

Wheres Trevor ? Josh steadied her , his hand brushing over her hair .

He came to see you during the surgery .

Once he heard it was successful , he had to leave for something urgent .

Ill let him know youre awake .

No , Josh , Ill call him myself .

Josh reached out to stop her , but it was too late .

Peyton had already dialed .

The phone rang for a long time before it finally connected .

Her soft voice trembled .

Trevor … A mans cool , detached voice came through the receiver .

Youre awake .

Why arent you here ? I thought youd be the first person Id see … Her voice wavered , fragile and pleading , the kind of voice that could make a mans heart ache with sympathy .

Trevor lifted his gaze from a stack of documents .

Congratulations .

The surgery was a success .

Peytons intuition immediately told her something was wrong .

Before , even if she had just a fever , Trevor would stay by her side all night .

Yet now , after something as monumental as a heart transplant , he had simply left once the operation was over .

She hesitated before cautiously asking , Trevor , will you still visit me like before ? 1/3 Chapter 75 I Need to Be With Her 61 % Finished Trevor didnt answer .

Instead , he said , Youre healthy now .

You can be independent .

And I need to be with Summer .

Tears streamed down Peytons face .

A sob escaped her lips .

Trevor remained silent , listening .

After a long pause , he finally said , Peyton , you should focus on resting .

I hope you can start a new life .

Then , the call ended .

Peytons grip tightened around the phone before she flung it across the room .

Her eyes , wide with fury , had lost all traces of vulnerability .

Josh , you knew , didnt you ? Josh stood beside her , his voice gentle with consolation .

Peyton , you still have me .

If youre willing , Ill take care of you .

I dont want you ! Peytons gaze turned icy , her voice cold as steel .

I wont just let Trevor go .

For so long , she had lived with an inferiority complex , believing her weak body made her unworthy of someone as perfect as Trevor .

She had clung to him through his pity , relying on his compassion to keep him by her side .

But now , she was whole .

She was just as healthy as Summer .

And she wasnt any less beautiful , perhaps even more gentle , more considerate than Summer .

Trevor had simply been momentarily blinded by Summer .

Peyton believed that once she reentered his life , he would realize that she was the one truly meant for him .

Summer returned to the office and pushed open the door .

Inside , Jasper sat on the couch , waiting for her .

Dad , what brings you here ? Jasper looked up from his newspaper , watching as she walked in .

He hadnt expected Summers visit to the Graham Group to secure the remaining 500 million dollars investment so quickly .

In the past , he had felt little attachment to this daughter .

Whether she existed or not had never truly mattered to him .

What he valued was someone who could bring him results , someone who could serve the interests of Stewart Group .

A rare , approving smile appeared on Jaspers face .

Summer , you handled this well .

Summer , of course , knew her ever cunning dad wouldnt come just to praise her .

Just say what you came for .

I have shares now , so this was my responsibility .

Jaspers smile deepened .

As expected from my daughter .

Decisive , pragmatic , always prioritizing interests above all else .

I want to ask , whats your relationship with Fraser ? 2/3 Chapter 75 I Need to Be With Her The first time , the Graham Group had insisted Summer personally sign the contract .

The second time , it was only after her visit that the funds were secured .
