My Innocent Love, His Brutal Correction

My parents died when I was seventeen, leaving me heartbroken and orphaned.

Mr. Julian Vance, my father's charismatic former mentee and a Silicon Valley titan, unexpectedly stepped in as my guardian.

He moved me into his lavish Atherton mansion, offering a bewildering new life of privilege.

Confused by teenage feelings, I tragically developed a crush on him, confessing my yearning in a clumsy letter.

Julian found it, and his kind facade shattered into a mask of pure fury.
