A friend from work drags her out to a party, and there she meets Mr. Katsuragi, the vice president of the company hosting the party. It ought to be their first time meeting... and yet, he gives off the impression of already knowing Sumika very well. On top of that, just when Sumika is at her wits' end trying to think of a way to save the family that took her in, Mr. Katsuragi offers to buy her hand in marriage...? Source: MangaPlaza
