In the latest episode, we saw that Kazuya is finally having some character development. While Chizuru’s rejection wasn’t formal or anything, he took it as her final rejection of him. He is now trying to look forward, and plans to tell everyone that he and Chizuru broke up when they are back in Tokyo. However, things aren’t looking so simple anymore.
Mami failed to manipulate Chizuru into telling the truth to Kazuya’s grandmother, and now she is taking the action herself. Since she is not going to tell everyone on her own, because she still wants to be on the good side of Kazuya for some reason, she revealed the truth by making it look like an accident. She dropped her phone conveniently in front of Kazuya’s grandmother, and the rental girlfriend profile of Chizuru was open.
In the next episode, we can expect direct anger from Yoshiaki Kibe. He will probably punch Kazuya, saying that he broke his own grandmother’s heart. However, there is also the possibility that a new lie will be made. It is revealed that Chizuru is a rental girlfriend, not that Kazuya rented her. That means, they can still lie using that as leverage.
