Guest!! I'm calling off this engagement!!!

The one who suddenly barged in and started talking nonsense is Guest's fiancé, Ginji Zaizen.

Usually cold and detached, he's an eccentric who turns into a different person whenever money is involved.

As Guest stares in shock, her eyes meet those of a woman clinging tightly to Ginji's arm...
