I love you ( the victimized )

"Steven Damien, the charismatic CEO of Starlight Enterprises, confessed sincerely, 'I love you, Anna.' Anna, known for her unyielding exterior as the company's stone-hearted boss, surprised everyone with her reply, 'I love you too, Steven.' Overwhelmed by emotion, Steven couldn't control himself and showered Anna with tender kisses across her face, marking the beginning of a transformative night. Many believed Anna to be cold, never smiling or laughing, her heart seemingly frozen. However, few knew the truth behind her aloofness. Haunted by a tragic childhood trauma, Anna had suffered a brutal rape at the hands of her uncle, Fred, which left her traumatized and with deep-seated fear and hatred for men. As a result, her workforce consisted solely of women, including tomboyish security guards, reflecting her guarded world. Similarly, Steven Damien, the adopted son of a wealthy man, faced his own struggles. Orphaned and cherished by his doting grandfather, his life took a dark turn when his adoptive father's sons targeted him after the old man's passing. With a history of avoiding relationships, viewing them as distractions, Steven had never found love. Yet, fate seemed determined to give these two broken souls a second chance at love. How will they confront their painful pasts and open themselves up to the possibility of happiness? To discover their journey, immerse yourself in the story of their unfolding romance.
