Original subtitles

He's the one

who killed my mother.

I'll never forgive him.

"Killed"?

I'm relieved he found a girl like you.

He didn't look like that kind of person.

Um...

Did you quit your job?

-Not yet. -Do that immediately.

That's something for me to decide.

Chiwa.

Are you feeling better?

Huh?

TAKANASHI: SICK LEAVE

Oh, that.

I'm better. It wasn't anything serious.

How were my quiche and rolled cabbage?

Quiche?

I gave them to your dad.

They were so delicious. Thanks.

-I'm so glad you liked it. -I had three of them.

My colleague came here yesterday, didn't he?

Yeah, he did.

It's still in the fridge, the food he brought...

You didn't tell him anything unnecessary, did you?

Like I'm married.

Of course not.

After all, he made that dish for you and brought it here.

If he finds out you're married he'll be shocked and take them back home.

-It's delicious. -But why?

What?

Why don't you want him to know that you're married?

If I tell someone,

"I'm married!"

he'll be like,

"Congratulations. Where did you two meet?"

-That's what he'll ask, isn't it? -Yes.

What then?

How about this, then?

I can't tell him my husband offered me a stack of cash.

You're right.

You don't want that young guy to be shocked too.

It's not about that.

Or is it?

-I'm home. -Welcome back.

Where is she?

She's at her father's.

Again?

It's because you made her want to go home.

Why don't you be a little kinder to her?

None of your business.

You were living abroad for quite a while,

but deep inside, you're a traditional Japanese man.

Here you go.

Don't expect girls to understand you without putting in words.

Young men these days are good at household work

and are thoughtful of others.

There are guys like that at her workplace too.

Who is he?

Would you like to know?

He's a university student working part-time.

Oh, part-time.

He's an intelligent man and wants to start an IT company.

When she took a sick leave,

he cooked some healthy dish and delivered it to her apartment.

Women fall for that kindness.

HAPPY MARRIAGE!?

INVENTORY TABLE

ACTUAL INVENTORY TABLE

-Did you find it? -Take a look.

This is...

Gather all the board members.

Yes, sir.

-We found an accounting fraud. -That can't be!

From December 2014 to December 2015,

the development cost with the Rene Clair was bigger than expected.

And there was a loss of 160 million yen.

Somebody manipulated the inventory

and made it look like we had a profit of 40 million yen.

The company needs to take responsibility and disclose this to the stockholders.

Wait a moment.

That would affect the image of Mamiya Holdings in its entirety.

So?

It might be better if we resolve it amongst ourselves.

Tashiro, this was under your management.

Yes.

You did this all on your own without the president's permission.

Is that right?

Yes.

Do you know what compliance is?

It involves solving a problem within the company

and not taking the moral and social responsibility.

That's one of the worst habits of family businesses.

As a business consultant, I've seen such companies numerous times.

Those companies will not last long.

I myself will make an announcement

regarding the accounting fraud.

If he announces that it will be a huge blow.

Seriously...

What an unnecessary thing to do.

It's been a while.

The last time I saw you was when you left for the U.S.

That was 15 years ago.

I'm the President of Mamiya Fiber now.

Father told me.

We found an accounting fraud

For the previous year.

So you didn't know.

I was already ill at that time.

I increasingly had to entrust more jobs to my employees.

I have to sort this out as soon as possible.

You no longer have a position in the company.

You took from me the thing I treasured the most.

So I intend to do the same to you.

Do as you please.

Life is a battle.

You're the one who taught me that.

So you're giving up?

I met your wife.

She's an independent,

kind woman.

Stop it with the nice guy act in front of her.

I know what kind of person you truly are, better than anyone else.

YAMAGUCHI

Hello there.

This is our product of the week.

It's only 29,800 yen.

Is that really cheap?

It's the cheapest in the area.

It's a twin cyclone type.

The vacuum power is 500 watts.

It's compact, but very powerful.

That means it uses a lot of electricity, right?

Do you have anything that's more eco-friendly?

In that case, I recommend this small cyclone type.

It has less vacuum power but uses less electricity.

No, thank you. That's useless then.

I'm looking for one that has strong vacuum power and uses less electricity.

Um...

Sir, in that case, I recommend this latest product for you.

It vacuums about 20 micron-sized dust particles

that are invisible to the eye, in half a second.

It's very powerful.

It uses 35% less electricity.

Yeah, that's what I'm looking for.

You saved my life, you're awesome!

Thank you.

Actually, this is the lightest vacuum cleaner in the world.

It weighs only two kilograms.

It's very easy to vacuum with. It's not cheap,

INCOMING CALL MAMIYA HOKUTO

-but it's definitely worth the price. -If you say it's the lightest in the...

YAMAGUCHI

What is it? I'm working.

I need to talk to you. Come home early today.

I'll try my best.

Takanashi!

No talking on the phone while at work! Put it away!

Yes, sir.

I'm leaving now.

Are you already going home?

But it's already 7:00 p.m.

You skipped work the other day because you were ill.

You should work overtime for that, shouldn't you?

But you're still clocking me out...

Clean up the storage before you go home.

Do I have to do that today?

We have a product to deliver first thing in the morning.

Okay.

I'll help you.

Yagami.

Thanks for today.

You helped me sell a product to that customer.

-It's hard to serve picky customers. -Yes.

How do you know so much about electronics?

Are you studying about them?

I have an electronics adviser qualification.

Wow.

Some customers are really into electronics,

and they are overjoyed

when they discover that someone has a good understanding of electronics.

As a result, they buy products from me.

Wow, you really are amazing!

You just started working here

but you're a hundred times more useful than I am.

No. Not to that extent.

It's commendable that you take pride in what you do.

I'm useless.

I don't know what I want.

Really?

It's not like I like electronics.

I just wanted to work somewhere, so I applied for a job at this company.

If someone tells me to quit my job,

I don't have any reason to tell them I won't.

Is someone telling you to quit?

Um...

My friend is living with a guy.

They sleep in the same bed

but nothing happens between them.

What do you think about that?

They live together?

Yeah.

Does that mean she's not attractive?

But I hear that often these days.

He might think of her as a friend.

Even though he proposed to her?

Not me, I'm talking about that friend.

Is he popular with women?

Well...

I guess he's popular.

Then he might consider marriage and love to be different.

Marrying her poses some sort of advantage to him,

but there's nothing else besides that.

That's a good point.

So, you were told by that man to quit your job?

What?

That story is entirely about you, isn't it?

-No, that's... -Watch out!

Are you okay?

Yes.

Wake up, Mommy!

Mommy!

Open your eyes!

INCOMING CALL MAMIYA HOKUTO

-Ouch... -Sorry, did it hurt?

It's okay. Thanks.

I think I sprained my ankle.

Do you want to go to the hospital?

I think it's closed at this hour.

Sorry, you still have work to do.

No worries.

I just have a little left. I'll come early tomorrow morning and finish it up.

If you have a roommate, why don't you ask him to pick you up?

-Where's your phone? -It's fine.

It's okay. He seemed to be busy with work.

He really doesn't like to be disturbed.

He often says, "Don't do anything unnecessary."

What you've told me so far

makes me think of him as an arrogant man.

Sorry.

You're right.

He's arrogant.

Why are you living with him?

At any rate, I'll take you home.

-Be careful. -Thanks.

You're really late.

I was working overtime.

With a guy?

What?

You were watching me?

You're the worst.

Stop doing that,

giving me orders and watching me.

This is Hokuto's favorite food.

Even your secretary is ordering me around.

We aren't doing anything a married couple normally does.

What kind of life is this?

What are you referring to by "things a married couple normally does"?

Like...

Go out on weekends.

Or...

Whatever.

Forget it.

This is just a contract marriage.

You're not attracted to me anyway.

Is that what you're worried about?

You're the one not letting me do things.

No, you're the one who's not setting the mood for that.

So it's my fault?

You aren't setting the mood either.

-What? -Like saying,

"I'm in the mood today."

"Come to me."

Are you stupid?

That's not something you ask for.

Isn't it obvious that the guy should do his best

and create a proper atmosphere for that?

Huh?

What?

Good night.

Are you making fun of me?

For real?

JAPAN IMPERIAL UNIVERSITY OF MEDICINE AND HOSPITAL

I don't think you should be visiting him.

Are you watching me again?

Why are you going this far?

It's Mr. Mamiya's order

that I should no longer let you see his father.

What reason does he have for going this far?

The boss's relationship with his father is a very complicated one.

Hokuto said his dad killed his mom.

What kind of reaction is that?

You definitely know something.

I can't tell you anything.

What kind of family are they?

Their relationship is messed up and they have a lot of secrets.

They're like the Inugami family.

Huh?

That girl.

I've seen her before.

It's her!

Um... Mitchell Hearts...

It's Misaki Shitara.

She came out from Seiji's room.

Why is she here?

What does that mean?

She has a business relationship with the boss's father

and she paid him a visit.

Is that all, I wonder?

It would be better if you were to mind your own business.

And I'm sorry to ask this of you at a time like this,

but I want you to take a look at this.

"Private dinner with a handsome heir"?

-What is this? -This is from half a year ago.

This actress is becoming popular now

and she leaked this photo so she could get in the tabloid.

I thought you'd be extremely shocked

if you were to find this out from the tabloid.

I am shocked...

Boss.

We're almost ready for the press conference.

Understood.

I'll bring your bag.

That handsome president is going out with Azusa Maruyama.

What was his name? Hokuto Mamiya?

Yes!

I'm shocked to hear that. I liked him.

If your salary is a hundred million yen, you can do anything you want!

You're in the way.

Ouch!

Damn! They got me.

You need to rest for a week.

Better not to work either.

Okay.

Thank you so much.

Sorry you had to come with me.

It's fine.

Do you want to call your roommate?

He should pick you up.

Here.

I'm not sure if he'll pick up.

It's already quite late.

Where is Mr. Mamiya?

I don't know.

He told me he was coming immediately.

No way.

It's locked.

Must be someone who opposes this conference.

Who would do this?

You're the one who locked the door, aren't you?

No.

What's the password to unlock it?

If the Chairman finds out about this, you're fired.

You're obeying the wrong person.

Managing Officer or the President.

Think carefully with your small brain about which side you should be on.

Thank you for waiting.

Due to illness, the President will not be here today.

I will be answering your questions instead.

Stop right there.

Move away from there.

Thanks.

Can you walk?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Do you want to get some coffee?

What an amazing place.

I know.

At first, I was surprised too.

He must be rich.

Seems like it.

It's weird.

Your relationship.

Weird?

If it were me,

if my girlfriend calls me at work,

I would answer in case anything happened.

If she's injured, I'd immediately go to her.

But aren't you too kind towards him?

You two are living together.

It's weird.

Maybe.

It's not normal.

Why are you living with him?

Because...

It's because...

We're married.

-Married? -Yeah.

-I'm sorry, Yagami. -Thank you for bringing my wife home.

She's fine now.

Please leave.

Okay.

See you tomorrow, Chiwa.

Sorry Yagami.

How dare you kiss a guy in my house?

I did not.

You were about to.

It's not my fault.

He didn't know we're married.

I don't think this is fair.

What do you mean? This is my house.

No affairs.

This is a contract marriage.

We never had sex.

I don't even know if you like me or not. We haven't even kissed...

I'm the only guy who can kiss you.

Now that we're married,

you're mine

and I'm yours.

I won't let any other guys touch you.

Then,

give me an explanation.

Oh.

That actress.

That's fine.

I want to know about your dad.

You said he killed your mom.

What does that mean?

You told me to be on your side.

I wanted to be on your side.

But if you don't tell me anything important

how can I support you?

I told you my mother was a mistress.

Her family was poor.

So she was working while studying at the university.

That's when she met my father.

But their family backgrounds were too different.

They couldn't end up together.

She was already pregnant with me when she got dumped.

My dad

later married a girl from a rich family.

For five years they couldn't have any kids.

That's why he contacted my mother again.

He wanted me

as the heir of the Mamiya family.

My mother didn't agree.

All I remember

is my mother's terrified face after seeing my father.

I was still a kid

but I felt something bad would happen.

And I was right.

That day,

in front of my very eyes...

Mom! Mom!

Wake up!

Open your eyes!

Mom!

...she got hit by a car.

So that's what happened.

I gave you the phone and ordered Soma to watch you

because I'm afraid

that one day someone will attack you too.

Don't worry about me.

There's no reason to come after me.

My mother was targeted by my father.

That man will do anything to get what he wants.

So,

I will never forgive

my father, who killed my mother,

and all those who didn't accept my mother.

I'm going to take over Mamiya Holdings

and after that, I will destroy it.

Yes.

Did you hear?

Your favorite Hokuto did something terrible.

What?

He announced the accounting fraud of Mamiya Fiber.

REPRESENTATIVE DIRECTOR HOKUTO MAMIYA TAKES OFFICE

Got it.

I understand now, Hokuto.

I'm on your side.

NEXT EPISODE

I'm going to announce our marriage. Come here right away.

Should I marry Hokuto?

Can you take responsibility of my wife's future?

Hokuto was with Misaki last night, wasn't he?

He disclosed Mamiya Holdings' problems.

Don't expect to stay in office.

I'm not going to accept any objections.

episode 5 Celebration

Today might be the last day for Hokuto.

Do you like Hokuto?

A woman's happiness is being loved by someone she loves.

The marriage announcement has been postponed.
