Marriage of Convenience

Kappei Hattori and Nanako walked side-by-side, chatting and smiling at each other. It looked very much like they were enjoying each other's company.

"Mr Kappei sure makes a great match with Ms Nanako." Sylvie sighed.

She was trailing behind the couple with Hideki Kujyo, Nanako's older brother.

"I would hope so," he said stiffly.

His distant demeanor did not deter her from continuing to speak.

She added, "I heard that Hattori-sama was accepted into Tokyo University based entirely on his own merits. He even got a master's degree and PhD at UC Berkeley. Not only is he super smart, his manners are just impeccable as well. I guess that's what happens when you're raised as a Hattori. I've heard nothing but great things about how kind, humble, and gentle he is. What a gentleman. He's been quickly climbing up the ranks in the Special Higher Police for the past couple of years too. He would make Ms Nanako the happiest woman in the world."
