Private Notes
At one glance, Sawagura Nobuko is a unsociable dumpy looking housekeeper. However, she is actually a very beautiful and classy lady, but due to a traumatic experience, she now disguises her good looks behind nerdy black-rimmed glasses and frumpy looking hairdo. Nobuko has been assigned to be the housekeeper for the Uehara family who manage a cosmetic surgery clinic. Nobuko is actually hired at a whopping sum of 2mil yen per month by Nakamura Akemi, the illegitimate child of the patriarch of the Uehara family, Hidemitsu. The household of Uehara comprises Akemi, and Hidemitsu's two other sons, Natsuo and Yuijiro, and their respective wives. Natsuo and Yuijiro are actually half siblings, and they are both currently in a power struggle to succeed Hidemitsu, who is past retirement age.
Natsuo and Yuijiro refuse to acknowledge Akemi as their sister, and had filed a paternity lawsuit against her, so as to ensure that Akemi will have no claim to the family fortunes. Hidemitsu is actually very fond of Akemi and would like to have her stay by his side. Thus, to outwit his sons, on the day that the lawyers draw up the papers to disown Akemi, Hidemitsu announces his upcoming marriage to Akemi! Unfortunately, Akemi is kidnapped right after that, and Nobuko, whose disguise was seen through by Akemi immediately and had pledged her allegiance to Akemi, has to rescue her...
Sawagura Nobuko (Yonekura Ryoko) is back housekeeping again in this sequel to the 2014 SP! This time around Nobuko, having been given some pearl earrings as a present sometime before, decides to attend an exhibition for a pearl described as being the world's most expensive one. That pearl is owned by the Iwakura family, who run a large pearl company. While looking at the pearl however, Nobuko is pulled away by a handsome man who seems to have some connection to the family. So when Nobuko finds one of her pearl earrings missing and probably taken by that man, she decides to work as a housekeeper for the Iwakura family until the man shows up again and she can get her earring back. But the Iwakura family that Nobuko is now working for has plenty of secrets beyond just pearls that she'll have to sort out if she wants her earring back...
