Original subtitles

Hokuto, come here right away. Your dad's condition is serious.

Yoko and I were best friends from university.

So I decided to protect

Yoko's only son, Hokuto, my boss, for the rest of my life.

Yoko sacrificed her life

to protect that precious boy.

So, Hokuto was the target?

Why did his dad hide the truth and consent to be the bad guy?

Soma.

EPISODE 10 SEPARATION

How's Seiji?

It's pretty serious.

He's receiving care now.

He's bleeding internally.

Hokuto.

He has received emergency care.

His condition is better now.

May we see him?

He's sleeping

but he'll be awake soon.

Please come this way.

Let's go, Hokuto.

Hokuto.

-Hokuto. -Ma'am.

Seiji.

Everyone's together.

Hokuto was here too. I told him to stay, but...

That's fine.

He spent his life

holding a grudge

and planning revenge against me

to keep his sanity.

That's why he's so scared

to see me

in such a condition.

Can I

talk to Satoru privately?

Okay.

You know

what I want to say.

Yes.

Welcome home.

I'm leaving now.

Wait. Don't leave.

Hokuto, I want to talk to you.

I think you should know your dad's true feelings

before it's too late.

Soma, please tell him.

You know something about his parents that we don't know.

I want to hear it too.

President.

I personally knew your mother

very well.

Look at this picture.

They loved each other very much.

I could get jealous just looking at them.

But the Mamiya family all objected to their marriage.

Yoko lost her dad in high school.

She worked at a nightclub

to earn tuition and living fees.

Yoko stepped back.

Later she found out she was pregnant.

But she didn't try to get back with him.

Seiji,

Hokuto's dad,

didn't know he had a son?

I told him.

That was when Yoko returned to Tokyo with her five-year-old boy.

She couldn't find a job in the countryside.

She had a hard time as a single mother.

Seiji had an arranged marriage with a girl from a wealthy family,

but they didn't get along, and separated.

I heard Seiji couldn't forget about Yoko

so I asked him to help Yoko.

Seiji wanted to have you both back.

But he was told that he could only have Hokuto back

as the heir to the family, and not Yoko.

So Yoko decided to stay as a single mother.

Seiji continued to try and convince her

that he would protect both of you.

I might've been the one

who killed Yoko.

I got her involved in this.

So you felt responsible

and decided to stay with Hokuto?

Seven years ago,

Seiji told me

that Mr. Mamiya was looking for a secretary.

It was a coincidence that I got hired.

I think Yoko helped create a bond between us.

Thank you.

But

this is not your fault.

Mr. Mamiya...

Why did Seiji hide the truth?

That he didn't kill Yoko.

I think he felt guilty.

For separating a happy mother and son.

If whoever killed Yoko was from the Mamiya family,

he felt that it was the same as him killing Yoko.

He strongly believed that he didn't have the right

to be loved by his son.

And he thought

if Hokuto finds out that his mom died to protect him,

it would be painful for him.

I'll go see him.

Yes.

You came.

Why didn't you tell me

that you were on my side? Why didn't you say anything?

I

couldn't rebel

against my own family, after all.

For the family

I once let go

of your mother.

Don't get crushed

by the Mamiya family, like I did.

Use them

and grow bigger.

I'm convinced

that you can do it.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad.

Um...

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Seiji left a will.

A will?

Satoru.

You have it with you.

I will read it out loud.

One. I, Seiji Mamiya

will let my son Hokuto

inherit my real estate and savings.

Two. I, Seiji Mamiya

will let my son Hokuto

inherit my shareholding of Mamiya Corporation and Mamiya Bank.

Three. My son Hokuto

will keep his presidency at Mamiya Fiber.

Four. My brother Satoru

will assist my son Hokuto as the managing director.

Wait a minute.

That means the whole Mamiya Group will be in the hands of Hokuto.

That's right.

And you're fine with that, brother?

What about you, Chairman?

I have no objection.

Hokuto's skills as a president are evident from Mamiya Fiber's rise in performance.

It's only been three months

and you're going to let an outsider take over the group?

This is crazy!

Yes. We've worked hard for this company for years.

I can't agree to this.

We need to appoint people

based on ability for the company to survive the competition.

I object.

What is it?

Is Hokuto really Seiji's son?

What do you mean?

Hokuto's mother worked at a nightclub.

I'm not sure if Hokuto is his biological son.

You're right.

She could've dated multiple men

and when she got pregnant she chose the wealthiest man

and asked him to raise him.

That's a common method used by those kinds of women.

You know well.

Did you learn that while you were working in Ginza?

Is that true?

What I want to say is

that woman could've deceived Seiji.

Hokuto's parents loved each other. That can't be true.

Seiji was distressed

because he didn't have any children for a long time.

We can't be sure if Hokuto is Seiji's biological son

or has the right to lead the Mamiya Group.

That's partly right.

Hokuto,

let's do a DNA exam.

A DNA exam?

Do we have to go that far?

If everything is clear then nobody can spread false rumors.

Do you want to take it?

Sure.

I'm...

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Thank you.

What a pity.

I wanted to drink with him.

I never got to see him.

I'm sorry.

I hadn't seen him in a long time too.

We reconciled right before he passed away.

Well, that's okay.

From now on, you can think of me as your dad.

Don't get distressed too much.

Thank you.

I hope you can get a child soon.

What are you saying?

When something bad happens, a good thing comes later.

And also,

this place seems too big for just the two of you.

You have such a big bed too.

Oh, that's for two. Is it made in Italy?

Dad.

I'll get going then.

I don't feel comfortable in this nice, tidy house.

Father.

Do you want to go to pachinko together?

You can do pachinko?

Of course I can.

Please, please, stop!

What the hell?

What a pity.

One more and it's a bingo!

Come on!

Stop!

It stopped! Wow, you got it!

Oh.

You won! You have skills!

It's my treat today.

He's a nice father.

Really?

He's selfish and loves gambling.

He's all over the place.

But he's honest.

Yeah, you're right.

My father and I were always reading each other's real intentions.

But Seiji was also a good dad.

Neither of you is good at expressing love.

I guess it's in your genes.

Genes, huh.

Ever since I was little,

I was always being rebellious towards him.

I always blamed him

for the sadness of losing my mother.

But the truth is,

I just wanted love.

Even though we were father and son, my father never tried to get close to me.

I just wanted him to notice me.

Hokuto.

You said before

that you wanted to take over the Mamiya family

as a revenge on your dad.

That you're going to take over and destroy the Mamiya family.

Do you still feel that way?

I'm going to take over Mamiya Holdings

and destroy it.

No.

This company is a precious fortune my dad left for me.

I want to protect it now.

Good.

But how ironic.

I hated him so much.

But now,

I don't even want to think he might not be my father.

It's all right.

Whatever happens, he's still your father.

And now,

you have me too.

Yeah.

I have you now.

Whatever happens, I'll be your ally.

So many prizes. These will last me a week.

Huh?

I've seen him before somewhere...

If the DNA exam proves that Hokuto is not Seiji's son,

I want to take over Mamiya Fiber.

Could you please inform the Chairman?

I could.

But you don't know the results yet.

About that,

if we pay extra cash to the doctor

we can get fake results.

You're such a naughty boy.

But we've requested

several institutes for the exam.

How can we do that?

I will ask the Chairman directly.

The Chairman is having a talk with Satoru now.

With Satoru?

This is not good.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

If something like this happens again I can no longer protect him.

I know.

Seiji must've suffered a lot,

his woman having been killed.

But he never told the truth

for the sake of the family.

The family's scandal

would affect the company's performance

and change the lives of all family members and employees.

He decided not to speak out

because he knew that.

It's my responsibility.

Is there a possibility

that Hokuto might not be Seiji's real son?

I can't be 100% sure.

It's something that only those two would know.

But even if Hokuto's not his real son, it wouldn't be a problem.

Why?

Hokuto is related to the Mamiya family

through Chiwa.

What do you mean?

Chiwa is Yuko's granddaughter.

Yuko is my distant relative.

I couldn't be with Yuko because of our blood.

I assumed there would be people objecting Hokuto's presidency,

so I planned this out ahead.

I see.

If she has a child,

nobody can object to it.

You're being targeted?

When I got a call about dad's condition,

someone pushed me onto the road.

Really?

I forgot because of all the chaos

but thinking back on it, I find several weird points.

I was also almost run over by a car at the park.

It could be that someone...

Someone.

Okay.

You should eradicate any anxiety.

I will investigate to my full ability.

Thanks.

Thank you.

I have the DNA results.

Seiji and Hokuto

are 99.9%

father and son.

Hokuto will keep his position as the heir of the Mamiya Holdings.

No objections?

I guess so.

This is a gift in return for the funeral offering.

-What? -Hokuto gave me this.

Coupons? He knows what to give me. Say thanks to him.

And ask him to pachinko again.

And to Las Vegas and the casino.

Okay, I'll tell him.

Oh, yeah. I saw one of your relatives the other day.

Maybe he lives around there.

A relative?

Yeah. The one I met at the wake.

What was his name? He's Hokuto's uncle.

Who? Who was it?

I'm home.

Welcome back.

Today's your favorite dish, kanitama.

Smells good.

I'm glad things were made clear about you and your dad.

It hasn't ended yet.

They haven't fully accepted me yet.

Hey.

Does your father's brother Satoru

live around here?

Satoru

lives in Mejiro.

Then maybe his workplace or business partners are around here?

No, he works in Otemachi.

Is anything wrong with Satoru?

No, nothing.

Oh, it's looking good.

What's wrong?

I

feel sick.

Chiwa, are you...

Is this it?

Congratulations!

Wait.

It's too early to celebrate.

I do have several symptoms, but...

You have symptoms?

Yeah.

I'm so happy.

We need to decide on the name.

Is it a girl or a boy?

Which is it?

You look so happy.

Of course I'm happy.

I'm really happy when you smile.

It makes me feel like it's okay to stay here and be your wife.

I love you.

Is it Soma?

Coming!

Good evening.

Hi.

We need to talk.

Can I come in?

The Chairman is taking care of my father's will.

It's not about that.

Don't you want to know

who killed your mom?

Who is it?

NEXT TIME

Are you pregnant?

This is not good. They know about your pregnancy.

I have a good bodyguard.

I wanted to be with you alone.

I'm so glad I have you with me.

They used to date before, right?

EPISODE 11 MADNESS OUT OF CONTROL

Are you fine with that, Chiwa?

Maybe she still has feelings for him.

Let's run!

What is this?

I'm going to be in your arms tonight.

Sorry.
