To make your dreams come true, sometimes you have to break the rules.

Daily, Rika Umezawa battles a nagging sense of emptiness and dissatisfaction. She works a tiring job, comes home to an unappreciative husband and has little opportunity to enjoy life. But things change when office gossip about affairs and embezzlement inspire Rika to do the unthinkable. Soon, Rika finds herself filling the void with a university student named Kota and the millions entrusted to her by clients. Is her newfound lifestyle the key to happiness? And if so, how long can it last?

The story is fascinating because I end up having so much empathy for the "anti-hero". It has something to do with how it was tied back to her idiotic childhood. I imagine anyone brought up in a catholic school probably ends up with a weird life.
