“Oh?” Fraser’s expression darkened, and he let out a sneer. “He thinks he’s worthy?”
“So I firmly rejected him.”
Summer had confirmed. At this moment, Trevor truly had no place in her heart.
She looked up, her eyes curved into a smile as they met Fraser’s gaze. Her eyes sparkled like roses swaying in the summer evening breeze, completely captivating.
Fraser’s eyes darkened slightly. He picked up a document from the table and handed it to Summer. “Take a look.”
Summer actually had noticed the document when Fraser arrived earlier.
She had wondered what it was, but now when she opened it, her eyes widened in surprise.
It was a signed authorization from Mr. Martin, the head of the Marloux, giving the Graham Group full authority to handle the Marloux’s entry.
And Fraser had just handed it to her.
Did this mean that the Marloux, which had arrogantly rejected me this afternoon, was now within my grasp?
Sure enough, the next moment, she heard the man confidently say, “A gift for you.”
Summer looked at him in shock. “This document is too precious. What do you want for it?”
Gifts between couples were usually things like jewelry or pearls.
But this was a contract that every major company in Havenbrook was competing for.
“Do I need conditions to help my wife?”
“You should.” Summer said.
“Then how about offering yourself tonight?”
Fraser said it in a casual tone, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Summer’s serious expression immediately turned red.
In such a public place, he wasn’t afraid of being overheard.
Summer’s eyes darted around before she leaned closer to his ear and whispered, “Sorry, it’s that time of the month. I can’t satisfy you.”
Fraser’s eyebrows furrowed, and his expression was one of frustration.
Seeing Fraser like this, no longer the aloof, untouchable figure, but more like a man denied his candy. Summer couldn’t help but smile even more.

Summer stiffened, her former boldness now replaced by compliance.
Fraser picked up a glass of cold water and took a few sips.
Only then did the heat in his body begin to dissipate.

This woman had learned to deliberately provoke him.
Summer cleared her throat and regained her composure.
“Fraser, thank you for the document. I really need it right now, but this is a business matter. I can’t take advantage of you, so my proposal is that the Stewart Group will be with the Graham Group, giving double…”
Fraser interrupted her. “Summer, if I were in trouble, would you help me?”
Summer was in question.
“Yes, of course.”
After all, he had helped me so many times.
But Fraser probably didn’t have any problems that needed my help.
“That’s enough. For me, this is just a small favor. If you need anything, just ask.”
If you want something, just ask…
Summer’s eyelashes fluttered slightly.
Fraser noticed her momentary dazed state.
I had just spoken without thinking.
It seemed that I had startled her a bit.
“This gift is just to make sure that you don’t ruin my appetite with your frowns during dinner.”
Summer snapped out of her thoughts.
Goodness.
I wouldn’t let my emotions show like that, okay?
Fraser said seriously, “After all, you don’t look good when you frown.”
Summer lowered her head to enjoy the exquisite dishes, occasionally glancing up at the starry sky, sparkling like gems embedded in the night.
The view from the observation table was breathtaking, offering a panoramic view of the sky.

“With a woman?” Summer looked at him.
- 4.
Hearing this, Fraser put down his fork and looked at her with amusement. “Jealous?”
“I’m just… a little curious.”
Fraser replied calmly, “What are you thinking? Do I look that free? It was with a client.”
At that moment, the phone on the table rang.
Summer glanced at it. It was an unknown number.
A feeling of foreboding rose in her chest.
But the phone continued to ring.
After a moment’s thought, Summer decided not to avoid it this time and answered the call.
An angry voice came over the phone.
“Summer, who is that bitch you are with?”
Fraser, who was sitting nearby, raised an eyebrow at the term “bitch.”

Summer’s beautiful eyes looked at Fraser as she smiled and said, “I’m with someone I like. What, do you have a problem with that?”
Beside her, Fraser’s lips curved slightly at the words “someone I like,” and the coldness on his face gradually disappeared.
On the other end of the line, Trevor let out a cold sneer.
“The person you like is me, right?”
Summer replied, “You overestimate yourself. He’s a much better man than you.”
Fraser’s lips twitched into a small, sweet smile as he picked up his glass and took a sip.
