Semua Bab Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire : Bab 111 - Bab 120

ColeThe necklace looked quite simple, yet stunning. Small, clear diamonds sat gently along a thin silver chain. It was the kind of piece that didn’t scream for attention but held your gaze all the same. I stared at it carefully, imagining how it would look on Skylar. I could already see it resting just above her collarbone, catching the light when she smiled.She’d love it.I had flown back into New York late last night. Business had gone smoothly—better than expected, actually. But instead of going home, I stayed the night in one of my penthouses on the Upper West Side, so that I could get her a gift first before seeing her.Skylar had joked with me during one of our calls. “Get something for me whenever you're coming back,” she had said. I laughed it off then, but it stuck with me. She never asked for much, infact, she never did at all. So this time, I wanted to surprise her with something nice.As I headed out this morning, I found myself inside one of the best jewelry stores in

SkylarI silently watched him as I sat on the bed, every movement, every action, as if I was just meeting him for the first time in my life.Cole opened a drawer in his room and took out an ointment. He opened the small jar of ointment and dipped two fingers inside. He knelt in front of me, carefully dabbing ointment on the wound on my knee.The coolness stung at first, but the faint herbal scent and his presence made me relax, helping me breathe through the chaos that was still swirling in my head.All I could think about was how he had walked into the office, like a knight in shining armor, and took me away from there.I still found it hard to believe he had publicly announced our marriage right there. In front of everyone.Even after he lifted me off the cold floor and carried me into the car, I couldn’t say a word. My tongue seemed tied. My mind was stuck. And now, as he knelt before me, his fingers warm and careful against my skin, the silence between us still stretched.I couldn

Skylar I sat quietly in the backseat of the car, watching the city pass by through the window. Celeste was Justin’s sister. It still didn’t sound right in my head. I couldn’t wrap my mind around it at all. After Justin’s call, I had told Cole about it, hoping for some advice—maybe even some concern. Instead, Cole had just shrugged and said, “You can go and see him if you want to.” And that was it. He had gone back to eating his breakfast like it didn’t matter to him, and then he left for work. I thought about the call... hard. Justin hadn’t really done anything wrong to me. If I was being fair, my first impression of him had been rather good. Calm. Polite. Kind. I mean, since he was Cole's friend and Cole didn't see anything wrong in me honoring the invitation... maybe it was better to hear what he had to say. So I messaged him back, and he sent me an address. So now, here I was. The driver pulled into a parking lot in front of a restaurant. I took a breath and stepped out

ColeI scrolled slowly through the tablet screen, gradually feeling frustrated.Page after page, design after design, my eyes scanned through an endless lineup of perfectly cut diamonds, emeralds, sapphires, and rubies. Every file was detailed: high-resolution images, specs, light performance reports, clarity grades… but none of it felt right.Too sparkly. Too ordinary. Too safe.I let out a sigh and leaned back in my chair.Why couldn’t I just get the perfect one?I knew this wasn’t about the designs themselves. They were stunning—flawless, even. Any jeweler would kill to get their hands on them. But none of them were Skylar.None of them carried the weight of what I wanted to say… and couldn’t say yet.Our life lately had been… blissful. There was no other word for it.We ate together, laughed more often… and even made love. Every time I opened my eyes in the morning and saw her lying next to me, breathing softly, I felt a warmth that no success or empire had ever given me.She was

SkylarI stirred awake slowly, stretching my arms above my head until I felt my joints pop with a satisfying release. A long yawn followed, and as if by instinct, I lifted my hand to my mouth to check for morning breath. I scrunched my nose and sighed in relief. It wasn’t too bad.Turning to my side, I expected to see the empty space beside me—Cole usually rose earlier than I did. But instead, I jumped slightly when I saw his eyes already wide open, staring at me with a playful smile on his lips.“Good morning, sleepyhead.”Mortified, I immediately turned to the other side, burying my face in the pillow. How long had he been watching me? My mind replayed the embarrassing moment of me checking my breath—oh no. Had he seen that too?Cole started laughing hard.“Cole!” I groaned from under the blanket.Before I could move away any further, his strong arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me back into him. I could feel the warmth of his chest pressed against my back.“How was your night?
