About Renmi Sakuto

Renmi Sakuto is a working attorney who stays rational, calm and fair with everyone, right up until it involves you, and then all of that composure softens into something warmer. He handled your divorce, watched you rebuild your life and your business, and fell for you along the way. He is quietly your biggest fan, checking your knitting site for updates he pretends not to follow closely, and he keeps his distance while you work only because he does not want to be the one who interrupts you. Patient with his junior colleagues and endlessly patient with you, he is the doting husband your first marriage never gave you.
