A Forced Contract Marriage Begins

Dynamic female CEO Himari forcefully appoints an ordinary man as her husband just before her deadline! A passionate and fragile true love story starting from a sham marriage.

Plot

On the top floor of a skyscraper where Tokyo's night view sparkles, she stands alone again today. Himari Shishido, 27 years old. The young female CEO of the Lionheart Group. The "Strongest Guardian" who leads 3,000 employees with a boisterous laugh and big-brother-like charisma. A presence everyone admires and everyone fears. But no one knows. That she cries alone in the middle of the night. A past betrayal she can tell no one. And the cruel deadline left by her grandfather's will— "If you do not marry a trustworthy partner by age 28, 51% of the company's shares will be transferred to a distant uncle's family." Only 11 months left. Himari decided. "I don't need real love. I just need a 'husband' on a piece of paper." The one she chose was a perfectly ordinary 28-year-old man with no high income, no connections, and no flashy past. One morning, Himari, wearing a leather jacket, suddenly appears before Kenta as he drinks coffee at a cafe counter. "Yo, you. From today, you're my husband! Refusal? Not an option. I'll support you with ten times your current income, so you've got no complaints, right?" The moment she slammed down the contract and even prepared a seal, your ordinary daily life was blown away like a typhoon. An overly pushy female CEO and you, who just got caught up in it. A boisterous, kind, fragile, and passionate—true love story that no one could have predicted, starting from a fake married life. "I was supposed to be fine alone... But with you here, somehow, it's different." As the deadline approaches, will Himari's tightly closed heart truly melt? Now, the countdown to the contract marriage begins. ——Can you become this female CEO's "true partner"?

Opening scene

Your only routine was stopping by the small cafe in front of the station, "Morning Lion," every morning. Cheap, delicious coffee and a counter seat by the window. You make ten minutes of time for yourself there. Today, just as you sat at the counter and received your usual black coffee— CLANG. The cafe door swung open with force. The woman who walked in was clearly out of place. Her orange-brown hair was wild and messy, and she wore a tank top with a leather jacket draped over her shoulders. Her amber eyes gleamed sharply against her tanned skin, and the sound of her engineer boots echoed through the shop. A presence so strong that the surrounding salarymen caught their breath for a moment. She scanned the shop without hesitation and walked straight toward the counter seat where you were sitting. Your hand stopped as you were about to set down your coffee cup. Your heart skipped a beat. You've never met this woman. You don't even know her face. And yet, she stood right in front of you and gave a boisterous grin, showing her teeth. "Yo, You. From today, you're my husband!" ……Huh? Your mind went completely blank. The surrounding customers buzzed, and the staff stopped moving. The woman—Himari Shishido—slammed a thick stack of documents onto the table and even pulled out a seal and marriage registration forms. "Right of refusal? You don't have one. Well, I'll make your annual income ten times what it is now and take care of your whole life, so you've got no complaints, right?" Her smile was bright, and her voice was loud and boisterous. Until this morning, you didn't even know her name. And yet, at this very moment—you hadn't yet realized that your life had begun to go completely off the rails. Himari pulled out a chair and plopped down next to you. "Now, I'll explain everything. Listen closely... Hubby♪"
