True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Hanson’s essay seemed a bit rushed, and some sentences were tangled with the kind of slips they’d expect from someone speaking off the cuff. But maybe that was what made his story seem all the more credible.

Three years ago, Hanson was fourteen. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

By a stroke of luck, he’d landed a gig on “Breeze of Youth.”

He played the younger brother of the lead, a sweet, shy kid who just adored his big bro.

Despite his tender age, Hanson had a real spark for acting.

Even with his limited screen time, he’d diligently memorize his lines and even sought acting tips from Joseph, the actor playing his brother.

Joseph was kind to him, saying more than once that Hanson was like a real–life little brother.

All Hanson felt was joy at the praise. He didn’t think much of it when Joseph would sling an arm around his shoulders or lean in close, laughing into his neck.

He figured it was just how boys got along when they were tight.

But as filming progressed, Joseph found more and more reasons for physical contact.

After a scene where Hanson’s character won a big game, Joseph hugged him so fiercely and planted a big kiss on his cheek.

Hanson froze, but the director seemed to love it, and with no experience to tell him otherwise, Hanson assumed this was just how things went in showbiz.

Then came a scene where the brothers were roughhousing, and Joseph pinned him to the bed. On camera, it was all playful wrestling, but underneath the covers, Hanson felt an uncomfortable rubbing.

Back then, Hanson was too innocent to understand what was going on, but he started to feel more and more uncomfortable.

Thankfully, Hanson’s role was small, so after a few more scenes, he was about to wrap

1. up.

But just before the final shoot, Joseph cornered him in the bathroom.

Joseph kissed him, said he liked him and promised more roles if Hanson was willing.

That was when Hanson finally understood the weird vibes he’d been getting, and he realized that some men liked other men, and Joseph was one of them.

Panicked, Hanson shoved Joseph away and bolted.

Joseph pursued him, but in a fit of anger, Hanson pushed him hard against the door, which was caught on security footage.

Joseph hit the doorknob and dropped to his knees in pain, drawing the crow to the commotion

The aftermath was brutal. Hanson was vilified online, and Joseph’s fans harassed him mercilessly.

Hanson wanted to tell the truth, but shame and lack of evidence silenced him. Pressured by his parents, he even apologized to Joseph.

The incident left deep psychological scars, and Hanson struggled with depression for a year before he began to recover

He returned to school life, trying to forget the past, and even as “Breeze of Youth” gained popularity, he wouldn’t allow anyone to mention the show around him.

Meanwhile, Joseph was getting more and more famous online. There was even a scandal last year with a female pop star, which kinda confirmed that he’s straight.

That was until Hanson saw a livestream where Sean complained about Joseph’s touchy behavior, proving Joseph never changed.

Hanson debated whether to share his story, fearing another onslaught of abuse, but he decided to speak out. He was about to become an adult, and he didn’t want his past to shadow his future. He hoped to prevent others from suffering in silence.

His message was clear: sexual harassment affects everyone, and silence only emboldens the perpetrator.

The livestream fell silent after his story, but online, the response was explosive.

Some called Joseph disgusting and didn’t care about his orientation, and they were just against him.

Hanson’s supporters pointed out Hanson was fourteen years old when he was sexually molested, and Sean looked fourteen now, Joseph’s apparent type.

Joseph’s fans defended him, claiming orientation was a personal freedom and insisting on his innocence.

But the argument was upended when the female idol from the “relationship scandal” spoke up, confirming a brief relationship with Joseph that lacked Intimacy and ended abruptly after going public,

Now, everyone understood the relationship was likely a cover for Joseph’s true preferences, and the outcry intensified against him.

“Holy smokes. That guy’s cunning gives me the creeps.”

“Only someone who’s been there would be on guard for an online beatdown. Hanson’s drama is the real deal.”

“I’ve got nothing against gay folks, but I can’t stand those with a lousy character.”

“The deceived girls are the real victims here. How many have suffered because of these deceivers?”

“Poor little Hanson must have felt so helpless back then, and his whole worldview shattered by that scumbag.”

“I can’t believe I used to think his interactions with his brother were so heartwarming. Fangirling over his and Raines‘ chemistry is my biggest sin.”

“Oh no. Don’t tell me Raines got harassed back in the day, too.”

“Please, no. Just thinking about it is making my blood boil.”
