I never imagined I’d be standing in front of the board so soon.

When Sean told me I would be presenting my proposal this afternoon, I was shocked. Nervous, too. Even though I had been working hard on the plan, I thought it would stay in the background, just another file on his desk. I didn’t think it would actually be shown to the entire board. But when Sean read it earlier and told me he liked it, I felt a little more confident.

Still, as I walked into the meeting room, my heart was beating fast.

I sat next to Sean, pretending to be calm. He looked so confident as he led the meeting. His posture, the way he spoke firm, calm, and full of control made everyone in the room pay attention to him. Even though the board members were older than him, they respected him. I could tell by the way they nodded and listened carefully.

I quietly took notes while Sean spoke. His voice was strong, and every word carried power. I admired him a little at that moment, not just because he was my boss, but

  • The Billionaire’s Untamed Possession   Fl's POV

    My heart stopped as I stared at the blank screen.No sketches. No slides. No files.Nothing.My design drawings… everything I had stayed up all night working on was gone.For a few seconds, I just stood there, frozen. My fingers hovered over the mouse, but I couldn’t move. The room felt too quiet. Too heavy.Then came the whispers.“She wasn’t ready.”“Didn’t Jessica say she only got here through luck?”“Maybe she fooled Sean with her looks, not her talent.”Their words weren’t loud, but I heard every single one.Each one is like a tiny needle stabbing into my chest.Panic rose in my throat. My palms felt cold and sweaty at the same time. I turned my eyes toward Sean, hoping desperately that he would help me, give me a second to explain, to recover, to breathe.But Sean’s brows were furrowed tightly. He looked serious no, worse he looked disappointed.My stomach dropped.“I…” I tried to speak. My voice cracked. “I swear I finished everything. The files were there last night. I saved t

  • The Billionaire’s Untamed Possession   ML POV

    After ending the call with Ethan, I felt a strange mix of emotions, relief, confusion, and guilt. I leaned back in my chair, letting the silence of the room settle around me. The lights outside the window flickered as the city carried on with its own rhythm, but my world had slowed down.The news Ethan gave me was good. Very good.The fact that no money had been exchanged between my grandfather and the worker meant one thing: there was no bribe. No deal. No hidden payment. That accusation was built on nothing but air. It felt like a small victory after weeks of stress and uncertainty, but I knew better than to celebrate too soon.Nick.He was the one who started all this mess. Now that the police were questioning him more seriously, I had a feeling things were going to crack. Maybe not today. But soon.Still, the biggest question remained..”why?”Why would Nick falsely accuse my grandfather? What did he gain? Was he trying to cover something up? Or did someone else put him up to it?I

  • The Billionaire’s Untamed Possession   Sean's POV

    I wasn’t sure what I should feel. Maybe I should be relieved. Evelyn said her father’s death was just an accident. And I believe her. She didn’t lie. Her eyes, her voice, everything felt real. That means she had nothing to do with the case. She is innocent. I can trust her.But then again, I felt empty.If even Evelyn, the victim’s daughter, knows nothing, then where are the answers? Where do I go next? I’ve been searching for clues to prove Grandpa's innocence. I thought maybe she would have some piece of the puzzle. But now it seems like all the clues have disappeared.I sat in silence for a while, staring at the dark city outside my office window. The lights below looked like little stars, but they couldn’t brighten the heavy feeling inside me.I picked up my phone and called Ethan.He answered after a few rings. “Sean?”“I spoke to Evelyn,” I said quietly. “She said her father died in an accident on a construction site. No cameras. No witnesses. Nothing strange. Just... an acciden

  • The Billionaire’s Untamed Possession   Evelyn's POV

    I stared down at my coffee, tracing the rim of the cup with my finger. The warmth had faded, but the bitterness still lingered on my tongue. Maybe that’s why my chest felt so heavy.“My father died when I was four,” I said softly, almost as if I was speaking to myself. “He fell from a building. It was an accident.”Sean, who had been sitting quietly across from me, suddenly looked up, startled. “Accident?” he repeated, his brows pulling together in concern.I nodded slowly. “Yes… It was a construction site. No cameras. No safety ropes. Just piles of building materials everywhere.” I paused, trying to keep my voice steady. “Maybe he tripped, or maybe he didn’t realize he was near the edge. We never really got answers. Just... silence.”Sean leaned back slightly, his face solemn. “I’m really sorry to hear that, Evelyn.”I gave a small, tired smile, even though my throat was tight. “We got a lot of compensation from the company, but it didn’t change anything. Money can’t bring someone ba

  • The Billionaire’s Untamed Possession   Fl's POV

    I was concentrating on my drawings, so absorbed in the lines and curves of the ring sketch that I barely noticed the time. The office was almost empty, with only the soft hum of the lights above and the occasional sound of footsteps from the hallway. My eyes burned from staring at the screen, and I reached for my coffee cup cold again. I sighed. That was probably my third or fourth cup tonight. I lost count.As I was shading the final details on the design, I suddenly heard a sound behind me. I turned around and saw Sean walking out of his office. He had just closed the glass door, and when he noticed me still sitting at my desk, he paused. His brow lifted slightly, and he tilted his head in that way he always did when something amused him.“I was just about to go downstairs for a cup of coffee,” he said casually, his voice a little husky from the late hour. “Do you want to join me?”I hesitated for a second, then smiled and nodded. “Sure. I could use another cup.”We took the elevato

  • The Billionaire’s Untamed Possession   Fl's POV

    The soft rustling of paper and the scratch of my pencil were the only sounds in the room. I sat at my desk, completely focused, surrounded by sketches, fabric samples, gemstone charts, and reference books. My fingers were stained with pencil smudges, and my hair was pulled into a loose bun with strands falling messily around my face. I didn’t care. I was too deep into my work to notice anything else.Every line I drew carried meaning. Every curve and angle told a story. Since the board had approved my proposal, my entire world had changed. I wasn’t just a background assistant anymore. I was the designer behind the company’s upcoming collection. That thought alone still felt unreal.I had spent the last few days reading everything I could, books on gemstones, color theory, and famous designers from history. I visited high-end stores in my free time, just to quietly admire the way some designs spoke without saying a word. I wasn’t copying. I was learning. I was growing. And most of all,
