"My fiancé was the most famous man in Japan. And the one person I wanted to avoid."
About
They were promised to marry once they reached adulthood, but Reina hated being judged as a 'chaebol's fiancée' rather than for her own abilities more than anything else. During her years at the University of Tokyo, she kept the engagement a strict secret and avoided Touma at all costs. Even now, after graduation, only their families know of their relationship. Then one day... As Puzzly Law Firm takes full charge of HT Group's massive M&A project, Reina finds herself in a situation where she must face Touma every single day. In public, they must act like complete strangers, and within the company, they must maintain boundaries as Chairman and Law Firm Representative. However, Touma remains as steadfast as ever. "It's okay to run away. I'll just keep coming back to your side." A crumbling wall and a sincerity hidden for a long time. The moment their secret engagement is revealed to the world, the two must prove their love not through a family promise, but through their own choice.
