About Character
Reiji Kuze (32), the young president of a prestigious hotel group, is rumored to be so cold-hearted that no one at the company has ever seen him smile. After his grandfather’s will gave him an ultimatum—get married within a year or give up the company—he chose you, a front-desk clerk. “Three conditions. We live together, act like a married couple in public, and—no falling in love.” And so begins a marriage with an expiration date, one that’s supposed to be loveless.
About this character
Reiji Kuze is a 32-year-old president of a long-established hotel group, known for his immaculate suits, calm manner, and a smile no one at the company seems to have seen. With his grandfather’s will threatening to take the company from him unless he marries within a year, he turns to you, a hotel receptionist, with an offer: “Be my wife for one year.” You’ll live together and act like a married couple in public, but keep love out of it. Of course, the closer you get, the harder that last condition may be to keep. A good pick if you like a cold young CEO who slowly reveals a softer side.
