Original subtitles

Stop competing with her.

You have many good qualities too.

Yes.

I can get through this.

Of course.

Yes.

Now that I'm married, having an affair with another woman would be a problem.

Do you think I'd cause myself so much trouble?

I know what I have to endure to secure my position.

Don't worry.

All my actions are calculated.

What did he mean by, "endure"?

So he's refraining from seeing Misaki?

Are you all right?

Yes! I'm good!

You're cute with wet hair.

You're like a Chihuahua.

I think I'll pass today.

"Pass"?

I think I drank too much.

I'm tipsy and I feel sleepy.

I'm going to get changed.

What is going on?

EPISODE 7 GIRL FIGHT

HAPPY MARRIAGE!?

I have a strong bond with her.

I'm confident that Chiwa is my one and only soulmate.

Having an affair with another woman would be a problem.

Do you think I'd cause myself so much trouble?

Even if that were his only option in order to get back to his family,

I was worried about him getting married to someone he knows nothing about.

I know what I have to endure to secure my position.

HOKUTO MAMIYA CHEATING AFFAIRS

Wow, he's having an affair?

He's rich and handsome. He can do whatever he wants.

Guys with decent money and looks will cheat!

I feel sorry for his wife.

HOKUTO MAMIYA HEARTLESS

"Heartless..."

Business management is like a game.

It's all about analysis, research, and how you use your pieces.

Are your employees your pieces?

That's partly true.

Don't worry.

All my actions are planned out.

Am I one of your pieces, too?

I'm not, right, Hokuto?

Working today too?

Of course.

I don't have much free time now

but let's travel somewhere when this calms down.

Think about where you want to go.

Tahiti, Maldives, Paris, anywhere you like.

This is Soma, I'm here to pick you up.

Yes!

I'll open the door.

Good morning.

Good morning, Mr. Mamiya.

This room is always so nice.

Did you sleep well last night?

I mean, did you have fun last night?

I don't know which is kinkier, your words or your clothing.

Please come this way.

My present to a newlywed.

Thank you.

What is it?

Sexy underwear!

Mr. Mamiya is popular with girls.

You need that to defeat any rivals.

So I came up with this idea.

Please use it daily.

Thanks.

It's very sexy.

What are you two up to?

Nothing in particular.

We're just having a girls talk. Shall we go?

Later.

Take care.

MAMIYA CHIWA

Nice to meet you.

Mamiya.

You're the wife of the rumored President Mamiya!

Yes, she's our young hopeful.

It must be hard to have such a popular husband.

Not everything in the tabloid is true.

But Mr. Mamiya is a very strict man.

He's famous for cutting down incompetent employees.

As his wife, you need to be careful too.

You're right.

I have people to see after this, so let's end here today.

Thank you again for your time.

It looks like Hokuto Mamiya has less power now.

Mamiya Holdings is losing its reputation.

You go in the back and organize files.

Okay.

Are you all right?

Why? I'm okay.

Your wife didn't have her usual smile today.

I see.

Maybe you can do something that makes her happy.

Yesterday I spent the whole day with her, that's enough.

The way you talk proves there is still much work to be done.

Did you say something?

No, nothing.

By the way,

Chiwa's house is close by.

Oh.

Wait.

And from behind comes Inamoto!

Go, go!

Faster! Faster!

Go! Go!

Number 2 blocks Inamoto from going forward!

Inamoto loses its power!

Inamoto falls behind.

Thank god I didn't bet on that one.

Hello. It's been a while.

Oh, what a rare visit. It's messy, but please come inside.

Thank you.

Thanks to you, I have officially announced my marriage to Chiwa

at my inauguration party.

And I probably made you anxious because of that article.

I deeply apologize for that.

That's okay. I don't mind.

There are plenty of guys who cheat once or twice, right?

I'm really sorry.

No, no, no. Please raise your head.

Right now I'm very busy with work,

but eventually I would like you to live somewhere close to us.

Really?

Yes.

This place is a little small for you.

I know. I spend a day or two and it's full of things already.

So I can move to a better place.

Are you going on a honeymoon?

Yes. I thought about that too.

I always wanted to go to Las Vegas.

I would love for you to come as well.

There's a customer who's been using the massage chair for three hours.

Can you throw him out?

Yes.

Excuse me, sir. I'm terribly sorry.

We prohibit our customers from using the massage chair for long hours.

Ah, but I only just sat down. Yes...

I think you mean to talk to that man over there.

It's not me. I sat here just now.

Dad!

Chiwa.

Why are you here?

You didn't look happy the other day so I was worried about you.

Are you getting along with Hokuto?

As usual.

So you won't get divorced then.

There is no such thing as a perfect person.

At least he's handsome and rich.

He might cheat on you once or twice.

But, if you can, just try to hang in there.

Don't look at that!

Gambling ticket. What is this? You gambled again?

I won today. See?

So I was thinking of buying a massage chair.

We don't have any money to buy a ticket this expensive.

And we don't have any space at home for a chair this big.

Don't worry. Hokuto said he'll get me a bigger place.

You saw Hokuto?

So this ticket...

He said I could have some fun.

You received money from Hokuto?

It's fine. He's my son-in-law now.

That's terrible.

I haven't been gambling for a while. It's okay once in a while...

Terrible, terrible, terrible!

He already paid off our debt. Don't ask for more money!

As his father-in-law you could have scolded him about the affair.

So he did have an affair?

I don't know. That's why I'm worried.

What's wrong, Mamiya?

Hurry and go home.

Okay, I will.

Bye, Yagami.

See you.

Go home!

TAEKO: SOMA

What do you want?

There are journalists waiting for you in front of your house.

JAPAN IMPERIAL UNIVERSITY OF MEDICINE AND HOSPITAL

Yes.

Good evening. It's been a while.

Good to see you.

How are you feeling?

You look better.

So-so.

My condition has neither deteriorated nor improved.

I'll put the flowers in water.

A vase...

I can put them in a cup.

Those are gorgeous flowers.

Did someone come to see you recently?

They're from president Shitara. From Mitchel Hearts.

Hokuto and Shitara have known each other a long time.

They had several opportunities to get married but they didn't.

Of course, there are reasons a parent wouldn't understand.

Did you want him to marry Shitara Misaki?

I don't know.

That's Hokuto's decision.

Hokuto actually told me not to come and see you.

But you don't look like the person Hokuto says you are.

A man who killed his mistress?

"Never trust people."

"Don't act as you feel. Plan ahead."

"Use the power of money."

Those are things I taught him.

He used to have a kind heart

even though he grew up in a poor family.

But he changed because of me.

People in the Mamiya family

strongly believe in the power of money.

Those with a kind heart

cannot win against those arrogant people.

"Arrogant people."

But they are your family.

Yes, and I am one of them.

I will give you a warning.

Even if you're married to him,

you shouldn't try to understand his thoughts.

You're just going to get tired.

What is this?

You're home.

You haven't prepared dinner yet?

Sorry. And sorry I didn't mean that.

Just calm down already.

I see.

So this is what married life is like.

If you can't trust your husband, you don't feel like doing any housework.

I didn't cheat on you.

How many times do I have to tell you?

Fine.

You're not lying.

But you didn't tell me you were intimate enough with Misaki

that you two might've gotten married.

I didn't marry Misaki. I married you. Isn't that enough?

You wanted to marry Misaki, didn't you?

But it was the Chairman's order to marry me.

What's this all of a sudden?

That must be it.

This is a contract marriage. Love doesn't matter.

It's stupid of me to discuss this.

You're part of the Mamiya family so you plan everything ahead.

Your dad said it too.

Dad?

You went to see him again?

Yeah.

Also, there were these huge, gorgeous flowers in his room.

Misaki visited him before me.

I didn't visit him before because you told me not to.

I told you not to see him.

Did you forget that?

You went to see my dad without telling me and did unnecessary things too!

Why unnecessary?

You're not supposed to give money to him.

He spends all the money he has.

Can't you understand how much trouble that caused me?

You thought you could get him on your side by giving him money, didn't you?

You don't understand anything!

I'm going to leave this house.

You're not going to stop me?

No.

I'm home.

Chiwa.

You haven't sold my futon yet, right?

It's still there, but...

Did you fight with Hokuto?

Don't tell me you're getting divorced.

Don't get divorced yet!

That can happen after we go to Las Vegas for the honeymoon.

No Las Vegas!

Not my head! Hit my body! Ouch!

YAMAGUCHI

Good morning.

Good morning. You're on the magazine again.

It seems like you did something bad here.

Like a criminal.

Yeah, a criminal.

WHO'S GOING TO WIN: WIFE? MISTRESS?

Look at those eyes.

"I love my husband."

Hello.

You have a call from President Shitara.

Yes.

This is Misaki. I wanted to tell you something.

Is it about that article?

This is nonsense. They must be bored.

It's not that.

Rene Claire is about to go bankrupt.

I thought you already knew.

Rene Claire?

Didn't you have an ongoing project with them?

No, we're fine.

I already told them to cancel that project.

That's good then.

I heard companies who worked with them are having trouble.

That bag and shirt you're developing with Rene Claire,

you're in charge of this project, right?

You must cancel this project.

Understand?

Yes.

Rene Claire has declared bankruptcy.

What should we do? The Chairman will hear about this soon.

Shut up!

I know that.

President...

Director.

I told you before to cancel that project with Rene Claire.

I don't remember you saying that.

If you did say that

it would be in our meeting journal.

I told you to cancel and you said yes.

But you didn't cancel.

How much money did you spend?

We already have a bad reputation from the accounting fraud.

Another problem now would result in a serious blow.

How are you going to recover from that?

I don't know.

You're the president of this company.

That's what you have to think about.

I made the mistake.

But you let it happen.

People will think you're the one who made the mistake.

This is what happens

when you push people away and steal the president's seat.

Contract marriage?

Hokuto's grandfather is the chairman.

He told Hokuto to marry me.

My grandmother was the Chairman's first love.

So he said Hokuto can join the family if he married me.

His mom was a mistress

and he couldn't be a part of the Mamiya family.

I see.

At first, I thought even if there's no love,

if my life would be stable then I'd be happy.

But after living together for a while

I began to forget that it was a contract marriage.

Hokuto can be kind at times.

The way he treats me on a date is very sweet.

At his inauguration, he even publicly announced

that I am his soulmate.

Hearing those things made me feel good.

But that might have all been his plan.

He just did that to keep me quiet.

It was his performance.

I don't feel like I'm being loved.

I don't understand.

What?

I can't believe there's a guy

who would marry a girl he doesn't love for his career.

Of course there are.

How did he propose to you?

Like you said, my family is full of idiots.

But I need to fight against those idiots.

I want you as my ally.

His ally, huh...

I would love to have your help on this.

We are going to present this next month.

I know I'm asking something difficult.

It's going to be a long night. You can go home now.

-Chiwa. -Yes?

Do you want to come over to my place?

TAEKO: SOMA

Hello? What is it?

Ma'am, what are you doing in Ogikubo?

It's none of your business.

Mr. Mamiya is going through a lot of trouble now

and will be spending the night at his office.

He hasn't eaten or slept at all.

I would like you to take him something warm to eat.

That's something you can do.

I want you to do this.

It's a very tough time for him now.

Do you know the word "cornered"?

"Cornered"?

At times like these,

you're the only one who can support him emotionally.

Please do this for him.

I have something I definitely want to acquire,

and you have something you want to protect.

I think we'll be a good match.

Now that we're married,

you're mine and I'm yours.

I want you as my ally.

My apartment is in Eifuku-cho. It's very close.

I'm sorry.

I need to go see Hokuto.

He's having trouble at work. And...

Where is his office?

Otemachi.

Please take her to Otemachi.

Okay.

Sorry, Yagami.

No worries. See you tomorrow.

Thank you.

Sure.

MISAKI: SHITARA

What is it?

So you were still working with Rene Claire.

What are you going to do?

I'm thinking now.

Can I see you for a while?

I'm busy now.

And I don't think it's a good time to see each other.

I think it is, precisely because it is now.

I can find a way to solve this.

Excuse me.

Do you know where I can find warm food in a hurry?

Thank you so much.

Take care.

I'm off.

Is that beef bowl?

I wanted him to eat something warm.

The driver suggested this beef bowl.

Wait, why do I have to explain this to you?

If that's the only thing you can do, you better go home.

What?

You have no idea how much trouble he is in right now.

I can actually be of use to him.

You're not helping him at all.

All you can do is smile next to him in public.

You can buy a beef bowl with one phone call.

Please go home.

NEXT EPISODE

Why did you make such a mistake?

I will have to dismiss you if you cause further harm to our company.

Misaki is my business partner. I can't cancel our partnership.

It's just that, I no longer know why I'm your wife.

Is he your wife's boyfriend?

EPISODE 8 BIRTHDAY EVENT

It's no good loving him.

I've asked you so many times to quit your job and you didn't.

Why are you quitting for him?

I like you.

I have my own life.

I want to be independent.
