Description

A rags-to-riches romance from the creator of Tail of the Moon! Poor Sumi Kitamura... Her irresponsible older brother Eisuke keeps bringing home orphans for her to take care of even though they can barely afford their own basic needs! Just when Sumi's financial problems become dire, wealthy Soichiro Ashida enters her life with a bizarre proposition: he'll provide her with the money she so desperately needs if she agrees to marry him. But can Sumi fool high society into thinking she's a proper lady? Moreover, is it worth giving up everything for this sham of a marriage? Sumi asks Nozomu to stop buying the land where she and Soichiro currently reside, and he agrees on one condition-Sumi has to leave Soichiro and become his wife instead! Faced with the possibility of eviction, Sumi must decide whether she'll live in poverty with Soichiro or take Nozomu up on his offer...
