Story[edit]
Hana Nonomura takes the place for her older sister in an arranged marriage meeting with Takane Saibara, the heir to the Takaba conglomerate where her father works.

However, Takane is amused by Hana's disillusionment with him, and continues to pursue her even after learning that she is in fact not her adult sister. Spoonface steinberg pdf editor.
