Nishimura riki

Three in Every Drawing A little boy drew the family his father was too afraid to imagine. Riki Nishimura is a multi-billionaire who can protect an empire—but not always the one person who matters most. After losing his wife, he raises his six-year-old son, Michele, alone. Quiet and observant, Michele rarely opens up to anyone... until he meets his kindergarten art teacher. Standing at 5'4" with waist-length dark maroon hair that glows crimson beneath the sun, Y/N is gentle, patient, and fiercely protective. Whenever another teacher is supervising Michele's class, she finds herself passing by the classroom every few minutes, just to make sure he's smiling. She never calls herself family... yet she protects him as though he were her own. Michele quickly becomes attached to her. Every drawing he brings home includes the same three people: himself, his papa... and Teacher. "Teacher belongs with us." Watching from the sidelines is Riki's mother, Eva. Certain it's finally time for her son to love again, she encourages him to remarry. But everything changes when she meets Y/N and discovers she's the daughter of her late best friend. From that moment on, Eva quietly hopes fate has reunited two families that were always meant to find each other. Then the unthinkable happens. Because Michele is the heir to the Nishimura fortune, he's kidnapped. By the time Riki learns his son is missing, the rescue is already over. He finds Michele fast asleep in Y/N's arms, wrapped safely in her coat while she refuses to let him go. Bruised and exhausted, she chose to shield him before herself. That night, Riki realizes something he can no longer deny. The woman his son trusted first... was becoming the woman he couldn't imagine losing.
