Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Cracks in Control
EthanI tapped my fingers against the table, lost in my thoughts. It had been almost a month now since Skylar had started working at Elegance Company.A full month.When I first heard that she had been hired here, I could barely contain my excitement. I remembered the feeling vividly — that rush of satisfaction knowing that finally, finally, I had her where I wanted. In my territory. Under my thumb. Just as I wanted.She hadn’t even realized it then — how naive she had been to think she could step into my world and not pay the price.From the moment she arrived, I made it my personal mission to make every single day difficult for her.It wasn’t long before her colleagues caught on.They were smart enough to sense where the wind was blowing. They adjusted quickly, treating Skylar with the same cold indifference I showed her. Some even went out of their way to be cruel, hoping to score favor points.My plan had been working beautifully.And the best part?I could see it written

SkylarMonday mornings always had a strange feeling to them. A fresh start... but also a kind of rush that made your heart beat faster than usual.I stepped into the office building, clutching my laptop bag and a small tote. I made my way to my office quickly. There was a lot to do today, and I didn’t want to waste any time.Tara had asked me on Friday to prepare some updated designs and submit them first thing Monday morning. I had worked late Friday night to make sure it was done, and I was proud of how it had turned out. All that was left was to print it out, package it properly, and submit it.As soon as I reached my desk, I placed my tote aside, switched on my desktop.I clicked quickly into my folder.Then I paused.My eyes narrowed.The folder where I had saved the designs... was empty.I clicked again. Then again.Nothing.A wave of confusion washed over me. I remembered clearly — crystal clear — that I had saved the file before leaving Friday night. I even dou

ColeI was seated at my desk, deep in work, my laptop open in front of me as my fingers moved quickly over the keyboard. Numbers, schedules, project updates — everything needed my attention, and I had no time to waste. A knock at the door pulled my focus away for a second. I didn’t even look up.“Come in,” I said, continuing to type.The door opened, and I heard footsteps approach.“Cole,” Xavier’s voice came, slightly rushed. “There’s something you need to see.”I didn’t stop typing. “I’m busy. Later.”Xavier didn’t move. His tone sharpened. “It’s about Skylar.”My hand froze midair, just above the keyboard. Slowly, I looked up at him, my expression tight. Xavier stood there, serious, holding a file in his hands.I narrowed my eyes at him, skeptical. “What about her?”Without answering immediately, Xavier stepped closer and placed the file on my desk.I closed the laptop softly, all my attention now on him.“This is a report I made about Skylar’s performance since she started workin

SkylarI sat at my workstation, working on my laptop, making small tweaks to my latest design. I had been focused on the task for what seemed like hours, but it was a satisfying kind of focus. The kind that made me feel like I was getting closer to something great, something I could be proud of.But then, a voice interrupted my thoughts.“Skylar, Tara wants to see you. She said you should bring your report with you.”I turned around in my chair to find one of the junior colleagues standing behind me.“Thanks,” I replied with a small smile, trying to mask the flutter of nerves in my stomach.It wasn’t that I was afraid of Tara; on the contrary, I appreciated her guidance. But being called to her office, especially with a report in hand, always felt like a big deal. I grabbed the file with my most recent work and stood up from my desk.I knocked lightly on the door and heard Tara’s voice from inside.“Come in, Skylar.”I opened the door and entered, finding Tara sitting at her desk, her

SkylarThe office was a whirlwind of activities. Phones kept ringing, people rushed past each other, and the clacking of keyboards filled the air. Everyone looked so busy, focused, determined.The presentation of the biannual new jewelry design collections of the company was coming up, and all hands were needed on deck to make sure all the designs and tasks needed to be done for that day were flawless. No one could afford to slack off — not even for a second.I sat at my desk, head bent low over my sketchpad. My pencil scratched quickly over the paper as I tried to bring my ideas to life. I was completely lost in my work, eyes locked onto the page, mind racing ahead with different shapes, lines, and textures.I didn’t even hear footsteps until a soft voice broke into my bubble."That's really good design, Sky."I jumped a little, blinking up. Ivana was standing by my side, arms crossed, a small smile on her face. I hadn’t even realized she was there."Thanks," I muttered.Ivana tilted

Ethan I didn’t understand what was going on anymore.Nothing was working the exact way I wanted. Absolutely nothing!I glared at the stack of files piled up in front of me, my fingers tapping irritably against the office table. The office felt too bright, too noisy, too everything.Suddenly, there was a light knock on my office door. I didn't even bother responding before the door creaked open and my assistant, Mason, peeked his head inside, holding a brown folder."Sir, the financial reports you requested —" he started cautiously."Get the hell out, Mason!" I barked, slamming my palm against the desk, causing a sharp sound to ring out. "Can't you see I’m busy? Is it that hard to use your damn brain?"Mason jumped back, mumbling a quick "Sorry, sir!" before scurrying out of the office.I leaned back in my chair, dragging a hand down my face. I knew I was being harsh and unreasonable, but I didn't care. I was too furious to care!And the root of it all? Skylar.It was always Skylar!

SkylarI still couldn't believe it.Even as I sat at my desk, staring at the blinking cursor on my computer screen, I still felt like everything was a dream…a dream come true.I had actually been promoted!Me. Skylar McLair.Of course I was really excited, but then my head couldn't just wrap around the fact that out of everyone, it was Ethan who had given me the promotion.The thought sent a shiver through my chest. My mind whirled, unable to land on a solid reason. How did this happen? Or was he probably forced to do so? If he was, by who? The only person I could think of that could pull something like this was Cole…but I find it difficult to believe that he would get involved.I couldn't fool myself. I knew better than to think Ethan had turned a new leaf overnight. Trusting him was like walking blindfolded over a tightrope — risky, foolish even. Something had to be up. There had to be a hidden agenda…right?Yet... three days had passed since the announcement, and Ethan hadn't m

SkylarI had never been this nervous in my whole, entire life.Pacing back and forth across my office, I twisted my fingers, bit my lip, and mentally went through every possible way I could start the conversation with Cole.‘I'm sorry, Cole. I didn't mean to let Ethan get that close.’ ‘Cole, please don't be mad at me…’‘Cole, it was nothing... really nothing…’Every time I tried to rehearse the words, my heart raced faster, and my palms got clammy. Nothing sounded right. Nothing sounded enough.It had been hours since the incident at the restaurant, and I was already back at the office.Since that terrifying moment when I saw Cole standing there, seeing Ethan holding my hand. I hadn't been able to get that look off Cole’s face out of my mind — the way he walked away without a word.It hurt. It hurt more than I expected. And the worst part? I couldn’t blame him. Not even a little.I tried to go over to him to explain when I sighted Xavier behind him, speaking with some clients. It

Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Presentation Day
SkylarThe past few days rushed by like a blur. With each ticking second, the pre-launch event for the biannual collection drew closer. I could feel the pressure mounting, but I didn’t let it weigh me down. Instead, I poured myself into my work with everything I had. This wasn’t just another jewelry design for me—it has to be the one. I wanted to create something that would leave a mark, something timeless, something people would talk about long after the event.I barely had time to look up from my work, but now and then, I caught glimpses of Ethan around the company. He still worked here, obviously, but ever since Mrs. Popeye, the sharp-eyed and all-business representative from the headquarters, had arrived to oversee things, Ethan had completely backed off. He no longer came close, never tried to chat or talk to me outside work hours, and most importantly, he couldn’t interfere with my work anymore. That alone gave me peace of mind.Finally, I could breathe. With Ethan out of the

Skylar It wasn’t until Ivana stepped out of the office that I finally reached for my phone,and dialed Cole's number.He picked up after the first ring. “Skylar,” he said in that familiar voice of his, smooth and teasing, “did you like your gift?"I smiled instantly, my eyes softening as I leaned against the edge of my desk. “I did. very well. It was perfect. Thank you so much, Cole.”He chuckled lightly. “Don’t mention it. I just knew you’d need it today. How did it go?”I breathed in deeply, feeling the weight of the day slowly lift. “Better than I expected. I wanted to thank you… for always believing in me. You always find a way to pull me through.”There was a pause on the line, followed by a soft sigh. “You’re stronger than you think, Sky. I just help you see that sometimes.”I bit my lip, caught off guard by the sudden warmth that surged through me. The way he had called me ‘Sky’— so effortlessly, so familiarly— made my heart skip a beat."Will you be coming back home today?" I
Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Redemption
SkylarFrom the moment I stepped into the office building, I could instantly tell that something had shifted slightly. The hallway wasn’t filled with murmurs or eyes silently accusing me of things I hadn’t done. It was quiet.I blinked, wondering if I was dreaming or if maybe everyone had decided to take the day off.Had Cole done something? Was this what he meant by a "gift"?I didn’t have long to ponder before Athena, yes, Tara’s sharp-tongued assistant, walked into my office. She knocked lightly before pushing the door open, her expression surprisingly neutral. Not smug. Not irritated.“Miss Tara would like to see you in the boardroom, Skylar,” Athena said.Her voice wasn’t curt or laced with any sort of hidden contempt. There was even a calmness to it… maybe even admiration?I blinked again. “I’ll be there shortly,” I responded softly, grabbing a notepad even though I wasn’t sure I’d need it.Athena gave a small nod before stepping out.I smoothed down my skirt, took a calming br
Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire The Push I Needed
Skylar I was buried beneath my pillow, trying to drown out the morning light and the buzz of reality that I wasn’t ready to face. My phone had rung three times now, vibrating furiously on the nightstand, but I had no intention of picking it up. I just wanted to stay in bed. Forever, if possible.Work? That was a word I didn’t want to hear.The events of the past few days had worn me out. The promotion—if I could even call it that—felt like a punishment. My colleagues looked at me differently now. No one smiled at me in the hallways. Whispers always followed me wherever I went. Even the work atmosphere felt choking and suffocating, to the point that I couldn't really concentrate anymore.How could I work in such a toxic environment?This morning, I decided enough was enough. I wasn't going back to that office anymore.I pulled the blanket tighter around me, ready to resume sleeping when the door suddenly creaked open."Skylar?" Ingrid's voice came in soft, almost coaxing. "Aren't you

Cole"Fire him," I said flatly.Xavier, who had just stepped into my office, blinked. "Sir?""The guard you assigned to watch Skylar," I repeated, my voice colder now. "If he can’t do his damn job, then why is he employed?"Xavier didn’t even attempt to defend the man. He nodded immediately, his expression tight with regret. "Understood. I’m sorry for the way things have been going. Don’t worry, I'll personally handle it."I leaned back in my chair, fingers drumming on the surface of my desk. I didn’t care for excuses today. Not when everything was already spiraling out of control."And the reporter or blogger, whoever he is?" I asked, looking up at him. "The one who posted the videos and pictures?"Xavier hesitated. "We’re still tracking them down. They’ve covered their tracks well, but we’re working on it."I slammed my palm on the desk, the sharp sound bouncing off the office walls. "A single person, Xavier. One man. I don’t care what he’s done—he is not a ghost. Utilize everything
Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Question Of The Heart
SkylarI stared blankly at the screen in front of me, my fingers resting on the keyboard but not moving at all. My body was there—sitting at my desk, dressed in work clothes, staring at data I couldn't process—but my mind was far, far away.Since the promotion announcement in the conference room, I felt like a ghost. Whispers followed me like shadows. Stares burned my back. Conversations fell silent the moment I walked into a room. And above it all, Ethan’s smug face lingered in my memory like a scar I couldn’t stop touching.I should have stayed strong. I should have ignored it all and focused on work. But it was so hard to focus when every time I blinked, I saw his eyes—that look of smug victory in the conference room. It made my stomach twist with dread—and a deep, pulsing anger.Ivana never came to check on me… as expected. Rather, she kept her distance, and I never saw her around.My phone suddenly rang.I blinked and looked down. Mom.My heart sank. Slowly, I picked it up and an
Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Shielded Truth
EthanI leaned back in my chair, watching the corners of my lips curl in amusement. The image of Skylar’s face back in the conference room was still fresh in my mind—tense, shocked, trying to piece together what had just happened. The memory brought a certain satisfaction, a sense of justice delivered in silence. She had thought herself clever, flaunting Cole in front of me that night, pretending I no longer existed. Well, let her enjoy the heat now.Mason stood across the desk, going through some documents, talking numbers and projections. I nodded now and then, pretending to listen, though my mind was elsewhere—until my phone rang. It was Celeste.“Why did you promote Skylar?” she asked immediately I picked the call, her voice sharp and direct.My grip on the phone tightened slightly. I exchanged a brief glance with Mason, who quietly excused himself, sensing the shift in my mood. I leaned forward and lowered my voice.“Celeste,” I said calmly, “where did you hear that?”“That wasn'
Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Backlash
SkylarI stood there, stunned.My heart was pounding so fast, I could barely hear the sounds around me. Ethan's words kept ringing in my ears. "Skylar McLair is now officially promoted to the position of Senior Creative Manager."What did he just say?For a moment, I honestly thought I misheard him. When he started with the dismissal—announcing I would no longer be the junior creative manager—I wasn’t shocked. I even expected it. This was Ethan after all. Petty revenge was his favorite game. I braced myself for some cruel demotion, a transfer, or a public humiliation.But a promotion?Senior Creative Manager?And the lead for the entire biannual product line presentation?That was... insane. And he was just standing there, looking so smug, grinning like a fool who thought he’d just handed me the world on a silver platter.I wanted to shake him right there. To ask him what the hell he was thinking of giving me a promotion just when we were still recovering from a misunderstood scandal?
Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire Gamechanger
EthanI parked my car in the company parking lot, about to head in to pick up some files I needed from the office.It was late, close to midnight. I had spent the whole day, every exhausting minute of it, with Celeste, trying to appease her and play the loving, loyal fiancée so that her trust in me wouldn't waver so easily.I was quite surprised that the scandal had burned so fast that before I could even act on it, it disappeared like it had never happened.It didn’t make sense to me that it could just disappear from the internet, so I dug deeper. I wanted to know how that could happen. That was when I discovered something even more surprising—the IT team from Buckman Corporation was the one that cleaned up everything. That could only mean one thing.Cole Buckman was involved.I let out a short laugh and smirked to myself. I could only imagine the expression on Cole’s face while he read the articles and blogs that had posted pictures of me and Skylar. He probably deleted everything
