Sky Chandler, a powerful CEO, first captured Jules Parker's heart in high school with kindness and charisma. Jules idolizes Sky, but when their paths cross again years later in the unforgiving corporate world, the hero of Jules' past becomes a guard...
The morning sunlight painted the heart of New York City in soft golden hues, setting the perfect backdrop for the spirited duo, Jules Parker and Sky Chandler. Jules, still snug in her early-day haze, glanced at her phone as a notification popped up.

"Arghhh! Finally! Jim texting in the group," she murmured with a grin.
"Happier than winning the lottery," Kade chimed in, always quick with her wit.
"Finally, they settled down," Tee added, equally thrilled.
Jules, curious, typed into the group chat: "What are you all so happy about?"
Jim replied, "About the heavenly water, of course. It helped you both complete the mission. How was it, Mon?"
Then, in true Jim fashion, he added cheekily, "The King of Scandals himself is living up to the name. It works brilliantly! Kudos to him. I accept my defeat. Congrats, Mon!"
The banter sent Jules' cheeks ablaze as she read the playful jabs aimed at Sky. Unable to hold back her embarrassment, she tossed her phone aside and called out, "Sky!" before storming into the bathroom.
Finding him lounging casually, Jules glared. "Why did you tell them about us?" she demanded. Sky raised a brow, smirking. "Such information can be spared," he teased.
"You told them in another group chat?" she asked, exasperated. "Not exactly," Sky replied with a devilish grin. "I just posted it on Facebook."
Jules gasped. "What? But they didn't even accept your friend requests!"
"Actually," Sky began nonchalantly, "they did. They probably saw everything I posted."
"What did you post?" Jules asked, bracing herself.
Sky casually showed her his phone. The caption read: "Bragging. I did it with Mon."
"Sir Sky!" Jules screamed in shock as Sky burst into laughter.
At the office, Jules busied herself with printouts, hoping to shake off the morning chaos. Sky appeared, as always, effortlessly charming and slightly mischievous.
Leaning close, he whispered, "When you're done, come see me in my room. Actually, scratch that come now." He flashed a knowing smirk and disappeared down the hall.
Curiosity got the better of Jules, and she found herself knocking on Sky's cabin door. Before she could step inside, he sneaked behind her, shut the door, and caught her in a kiss. Jules melted into the moment, her head spinning as Sky playfully nudged her against the desk.
"Sir Sky, why did you call me here?" she asked breathlessly.
"Nothing in particular," he said with a grin. "Just wanted to tell you we've done it."
"Stop teasing," she replied, holding him around his waist.
"Well, if you're not busy..." he trailed off, his eyes locking with hers.
The intimate moment was cut short when Sky revealed his decision. "I'm breaking up with Mia today," he said.
Jules hesitated, guilt weighing heavy. "It feels like betrayal," she admitted. "Mia has been so kind to me."
Sky held her close, his voice firm. "Don't feel guilty. I love you, Mon..not Mia. What's between me and her is just a family arrangement, not love."

Before Jules could respond, her phone buzzed. It was Mia: "Mon, something bad has happened. Meet me at the park near the office. Don't tell Sky."
Jules backed away, her heart racing. "It's... my mom. I have to go," she lied, leaving Sky puzzled.
At the park, Mia greeted Jules with visible anxiety. "Mon, come quick!" she said, pulling her aside.
"What's wrong?" Jules asked.
"Do you remember your last post with Sky's picture?" Mia began. "It's causing trouble. I've been arguing with this Facebook account, 'I'm your boss.' They've been spamming me with 'Throw shit, throw shit,' which is the phrase I taught Sky last week!"
Jules tried to deflect. "Other people can use that phrase too."
"But isn't it suspicious?" Mia pressed. "Then they changed the account name to 'Sky Chandler.' That's his full name!"
Panic flooded Jules as she checked the account, relieved to find it private. At least Mia couldn't see any posts.
"So... is Sky trolling me?" Mia asked, her voice trembling. Jules nodded reluctantly, feeling trapped.
"Damn it, Mon! Don't let him know I argued with him using fake ID. You know how angry he can get!" Mia pleaded.
From a distance, Sophie watched the unfolding scene, her playful smile slowly fading as she realized the gravity of what she was witnessing. The lighthearted shipping of Jules and Mia had quickly turned into a serious betrayal in her eyes. With a click of her phone, she captured the entire moment on video, her expression shifting to one of quiet determination as she prepared to expose the truth.
