1
00:00:02,544 --> 00:00:03,586
What is this?

2
00:00:03,586 --> 00:00:05,588
Can you even call this a carriage?

3
00:00:05,588 --> 00:00:06,589
Goodness.

4
00:00:06,589 --> 00:00:09,592
I suppose this is what one should
expect of a duke's carriage.

5
00:00:09,592 --> 00:00:11,636
It's like the horses are
pulling our house behind them.

6
00:00:13,638 --> 00:00:16,558
Are these all of your things?

7
00:00:16,558 --> 00:00:19,561
If there's anything else you'd like
carried out, please let me know.

8
00:00:19,561 --> 00:00:22,564
Oh, no, this is quite enough.

9
00:00:22,564 --> 00:00:24,607
Are they trying to make me move out entirely?

10
00:00:33,658 --> 00:00:36,578
Please take good care of my sister.

11
00:00:39,622 --> 00:00:41,583
Rose...

12
00:00:42,625 --> 00:00:45,628
Raeli, do take care of yourself.

13
00:02:31,150 --> 00:02:34,153
We have been awaiting
your arrival, Miss McMillan.

14
00:02:34,153 --> 00:02:36,114
Allow me to introduce myself.

15
00:02:36,114 --> 00:02:41,077
I am Gideon Jura, the supervising
butler of this mansion.

16
00:02:41,077 --> 00:02:44,122
It is an honor to see you again, Gideon.

17
00:02:45,081 --> 00:02:48,126
Four butlers in one mansion?!

18
00:02:49,127 --> 00:02:55,091
The servants will carry your things
for you. You need not worry.

19
00:02:55,091 --> 00:02:57,135
I appreciate your consideration.

20
00:02:57,135 --> 00:03:01,097
Now, before I show you to your room,

21
00:03:01,097 --> 00:03:04,142
allow me to tell you
about this mansion's history.

22
00:03:04,142 --> 00:03:08,104
Th-The mansion's history?

23
00:03:08,146 --> 00:03:09,147
Indeed.

24
00:03:10,106 --> 00:03:12,108
This is a venerable mansion that the

25
00:03:12,108 --> 00:03:15,153
Wynknight family has
called home for centuries.

26
00:03:15,194 --> 00:03:20,158
It is packed full of
the Wynknight family's history.

27
00:03:20,158 --> 00:03:25,079
Ah... That certainly does sound intriguing.

28
00:03:28,166 --> 00:03:30,126
I'm gonna die!

29
00:03:30,126 --> 00:03:33,171
What is this? Some new
form of hazing?

30
00:03:33,171 --> 00:03:36,090
Like a "don't think
someone like you can just

31
00:03:36,090 --> 00:03:39,093
come into the duke's
mansion like that" thing?

32
00:03:39,093 --> 00:03:42,096
All that stuff about who they
got the mansion from,

33
00:03:42,096 --> 00:03:45,141
and how every single pattern
has immeasurable value...

34
00:03:46,100 --> 00:03:50,104
And how diligently
the designer worked to design it,

35
00:03:50,104 --> 00:03:53,191
and how much all that work influenced
designers who came after...

36
00:03:53,191 --> 00:03:56,110
I don't even care about all that!

37
00:03:56,152 --> 00:04:01,073
They're not going to tell me that even this
bed is a national treasure, are they?

38
00:04:01,073 --> 00:04:03,159
Don't worry. That bed isn't included.

39
00:04:07,121 --> 00:04:08,164
Want a drink?

40
00:04:08,164 --> 00:04:11,125
Wait a minute! How long has he been there?!

41
00:04:11,167 --> 00:04:14,170
Wh-What are you doing here?

42
00:04:14,170 --> 00:04:17,131
You shouldn't just enter
someone's room without warning!

43
00:04:17,131 --> 00:04:19,175
Are you saying you require privacy?

44
00:04:19,175 --> 00:04:21,135
Of course I do!

45
00:04:21,135 --> 00:04:22,178
Well, give it up.

46
00:04:22,178 --> 00:04:25,139
It's pointless to expect such a thing.

47
00:04:25,181 --> 00:04:29,143
You're lucky you were born in this world.

48
00:04:29,143 --> 00:04:32,188
In my world, you would've
been arrested long ago.

49
00:04:34,106 --> 00:04:35,149
And?

50
00:04:35,191 --> 00:04:38,110
Did you have business with me?

51
00:04:39,111 --> 00:04:43,115
My fiancée has moved into my home.

52
00:04:43,115 --> 00:04:46,077
She can't just stay
in her room all the time.

53
00:04:47,119 --> 00:04:49,163
Yes, yes, I see.

54
00:04:49,163 --> 00:04:53,125
The Brooks family is seeking
monetary compensation.

55
00:04:54,126 --> 00:04:56,128
You have no taste in men.

56
00:04:56,128 --> 00:04:58,172
Yes, so it would seem.

57
00:04:58,172 --> 00:05:01,133
After all, I proposed a deal with this guy.

58
00:05:01,133 --> 00:05:03,177
Could my taste in men be any worse?

59
00:05:03,177 --> 00:05:07,098
I will take care of the Brooks family.

60
00:05:07,098 --> 00:05:10,184
You can just focus on acclimating
yourself to life here.

61
00:05:11,102 --> 00:05:15,064
Your bridal training will
begin in earnest tomorrow,

62
00:05:15,064 --> 00:05:17,066
but I hold no expectations for you.

63
00:05:17,149 --> 00:05:20,152
You needn't concern yourself with mastery.

64
00:05:21,112 --> 00:05:24,115
Mastery? Who's worried about that?

65
00:05:25,116 --> 00:05:30,121
Yes, I also have no intention
of becoming your perfect bride.

66
00:05:30,121 --> 00:05:33,124
I wouldn't ask as much of you, either.

67
00:05:33,165 --> 00:05:37,128
All I need you to do is keep up
the appearance of my fiancé.

68
00:05:39,088 --> 00:05:40,131
I see.

69
00:05:42,133 --> 00:05:44,135
I'll keep that in mind.

70
00:05:50,141 --> 00:05:54,103
Um... There is one thing
I'd like to ask you.

71
00:05:56,105 --> 00:06:01,110
Are there any others, excluding myself,
who know of our deal?

72
00:06:03,154 --> 00:06:07,074
I need to ensure
that our stories match if so.

73
00:06:08,159 --> 00:06:14,123
Currently, there are only two who know
of our deal other than you and me.

74
00:06:16,125 --> 00:06:19,170
One is someone you are already aware of.

75
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:21,088
Master Taylor?

76
00:06:21,088 --> 00:06:22,131
Yes.

77
00:06:22,131 --> 00:06:24,091
And the other...

78
00:06:24,133 --> 00:06:26,135
Well, you'll know soon enough.

79
00:06:26,135 --> 00:06:29,180
Oh... I bet he means his chief aide.

80
00:06:29,180 --> 00:06:31,140
He was in the novel, too.

81
00:06:32,141 --> 00:06:34,185
This does mean we'll have to play the part

82
00:06:34,185 --> 00:06:39,106
of a harmonious couple whenever
we're in this mansion, though.

83
00:06:39,106 --> 00:06:42,109
I will have you conduct yourself as my

84
00:06:42,109 --> 00:06:45,112
beloved fiancée both
publicly and internally.

85
00:06:45,112 --> 00:06:47,156
W-Wait just a moment!

86
00:06:47,156 --> 00:06:48,157
What is it?

87
00:06:48,157 --> 00:06:50,117
Um...

88
00:06:50,159 --> 00:06:56,082
I believe we should discuss the more
detailed rules that aren't in the contract.

89
00:06:56,082 --> 00:07:00,169
First, please address me not
with formalities, but as "Raeliana."

90
00:07:02,171 --> 00:07:05,090
I will do that, Raeliana.

91
00:07:06,133 --> 00:07:11,138
Second, I understand that
you have your suspicions of me,

92
00:07:11,138 --> 00:07:13,140
but within this room, at the very least,

93
00:07:13,140 --> 00:07:16,143
could you please respect my privacy?

94
00:07:18,103 --> 00:07:19,146
If I refuse?

95
00:07:20,105 --> 00:07:25,152
Even now, I act with utmost
respect for your intentions.

96
00:07:26,111 --> 00:07:29,156
I simply hope you will understand that.

97
00:07:39,083 --> 00:07:40,125
Very well.

98
00:07:40,125 --> 00:07:43,128
And now, our fun must come to an end.

99
00:07:43,128 --> 00:07:45,130
I will take my leave.

100
00:07:45,130 --> 00:07:48,133
Fun? How was that fun?

101
00:07:49,176 --> 00:07:53,097
If there's anything you need,
don't hesitate to ask.

102
00:07:53,097 --> 00:07:55,182
There is nothing we
can't get for you here...

103
00:07:56,141 --> 00:07:57,142
Raeliana.

104
00:07:59,144 --> 00:08:03,107
To have you show such
consideration for me, Duke,

105
00:08:03,107 --> 00:08:05,150
makes me so happy, I feel like I could cry.

106
00:08:08,153 --> 00:08:11,156
In that case, I won't hesitate to ask.

107
00:08:11,156 --> 00:08:16,120
The one thing I want right now
is some time to myself.

108
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,122
Just get out of here!

109
00:08:21,166 --> 00:08:26,171
If you are my fiancée, should you not
call me "Noah" rather than "Duke,"

110
00:08:27,172 --> 00:08:29,174
my beloved Raeliana?

111
00:08:32,136 --> 00:08:34,096
That's right.

112
00:08:34,096 --> 00:08:39,143
I have to play the part
of his loving fiancée now.

113
00:08:39,143 --> 00:08:43,105
But that doesn't mean
I can just use his first name!

114
00:08:43,147 --> 00:08:45,107
What's the matter?

115
00:08:45,107 --> 00:08:48,068
If you don't like that,
we could use pet names.

116
00:08:48,068 --> 00:08:52,156
No, that's quite all right.
I'll call you by name.

117
00:08:52,156 --> 00:08:54,158
Say it, then.

118
00:08:57,119 --> 00:09:01,165
I will, the next time I need something.

119
00:09:07,087 --> 00:09:10,132
Words don't always come naturally
when you need them to

120
00:09:10,132 --> 00:09:12,134
if you aren't accustomed to using them.

121
00:09:13,135 --> 00:09:15,137
Say my name right now.

122
00:09:17,139 --> 00:09:20,142
N-N... No...

123
00:09:20,142 --> 00:09:22,144
Come, now. Quickly.

124
00:09:23,145 --> 00:09:26,148
No...ah...

125
00:09:28,150 --> 00:09:30,152
Noah.

126
00:09:31,153 --> 00:09:33,155
This jerk!

127
00:09:34,156 --> 00:09:36,158
Well, that'll do.

128
00:09:42,122 --> 00:09:46,126
I will take my leave now, Raeliana.

129
00:09:51,173 --> 00:09:55,094
That... That... That jerk!

130
00:10:03,143 --> 00:10:06,105
Adam, what do you think of that girl?

131
00:10:14,154 --> 00:10:16,115
She's strange.

132
00:10:19,118 --> 00:10:22,162
That's an unusually
positive assessment for him.

133
00:10:22,162 --> 00:10:25,124
Does he actually like her?

134
00:10:26,124 --> 00:10:28,126
"Strange," is she?

135
00:10:29,169 --> 00:10:31,171
Don't let her out of your sight.

136
00:10:41,139 --> 00:10:42,182
Social etiquette.

137
00:10:44,184 --> 00:10:45,185
Embroidery.

138
00:10:48,105 --> 00:10:49,106
Dancing.

139
00:10:49,147 --> 00:10:53,151
I had no words for all
the things they made me do

140
00:10:53,151 --> 00:10:56,071
as part of my bridal training.

141
00:10:57,114 --> 00:10:59,116
But luckily for me,

142
00:10:59,116 --> 00:11:04,079
Raeliana McMillan was someone who had
grown up exposed to that sort of culture,

143
00:11:04,079 --> 00:11:06,164
so it all came naturally.

144
00:11:07,124 --> 00:11:09,084
The only problem is

145
00:11:09,084 --> 00:11:12,087
the differing range of education
associated with our differing ranks.

146
00:11:12,087 --> 00:11:15,132
The McMillans are common
nobles of the Estota class,

147
00:11:16,174 --> 00:11:18,176
and Raeliana is their daughter...

148
00:11:19,136 --> 00:11:22,139
It's time for your math lesson.

149
00:11:22,139 --> 00:11:26,101
But if they think I'm just another
noble's daughter, they're very wrong!

150
00:11:26,143 --> 00:11:29,187
I was just studying
for college entrance exams.

151
00:11:30,105 --> 00:11:32,149
I can solve these problems
with my eyes closed.

152
00:11:43,118 --> 00:11:46,121
It's been almost two weeks
since I came to the duke's mansion.

153
00:11:56,131 --> 00:11:58,133
I'm so bored.

154
00:12:07,142 --> 00:12:10,103
You feel the need to
wear leaves on your head?

155
00:12:10,145 --> 00:12:14,107
If you desire jewels,
I'll buy you as many as you want.

156
00:12:14,107 --> 00:12:18,153
Damn him! Why is he so utterly revolting?

157
00:12:19,112 --> 00:12:21,156
What brings you here today?

158
00:12:23,116 --> 00:12:26,119
A bouquet? For me?

159
00:12:40,175 --> 00:12:43,136
Absolutely revolting!

160
00:12:43,136 --> 00:12:47,099
Calm down, me. Just hold it in...

161
00:12:54,147 --> 00:12:57,150
My people have been hailing
you as the perfect bride,

162
00:12:57,192 --> 00:12:59,152
flawless and above all reproach.

163
00:13:00,153 --> 00:13:04,157
Why is he suddenly speaking
to me respectfully?

164
00:13:04,157 --> 00:13:08,120
You said you had no intention
of being my perfect bride.

165
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,122
Why the change of heart?

166
00:13:11,123 --> 00:13:15,127
I-I'm simply studying to learn
things I didn't know before.

167
00:13:15,127 --> 00:13:16,169
It has nothing to do with you, Duke—

168
00:13:16,169 --> 00:13:17,170
Noah.

169
00:13:17,170 --> 00:13:23,093
It... has nothing to do with you, Noah.

170
00:13:23,093 --> 00:13:26,096
Besides, I'm forbidden
from leaving the mansion,

171
00:13:26,096 --> 00:13:30,100
so I have nothing to do
other than focus on my studies.

172
00:13:31,101 --> 00:13:33,145
You're saying it's my fault?

173
00:13:33,145 --> 00:13:36,148
Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.

174
00:13:36,148 --> 00:13:40,152
There happens to be a ball
that I am required to attend tonight.

175
00:13:40,152 --> 00:13:42,154
You will accompany me there.

176
00:13:42,154 --> 00:13:43,155
Huh?

177
00:13:43,155 --> 00:13:47,117
Well, I have nothing else to do...

178
00:13:47,117 --> 00:13:51,121
I plan to announce my engagement there.

179
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,125
What?! You can't just do that without—

180
00:13:55,125 --> 00:13:59,087
Well, the engagement
ceremony is in one week.

181
00:13:59,087 --> 00:14:02,132
Engagement ceremony?! But...

182
00:14:03,091 --> 00:14:05,135
In what world can you have
an engagement ceremony

183
00:14:05,135 --> 00:14:07,137
without the engaged party's knowledge?!

184
00:14:07,137 --> 00:14:08,138
This world.

185
00:14:09,097 --> 00:14:11,099
Oh, of course.

186
00:14:12,142 --> 00:14:15,145
Well, then, I'll go get ready.

187
00:14:15,687 --> 00:14:17,689
No need for that.

188
00:14:19,691 --> 00:14:20,692
Come in.

189
00:14:22,652 --> 00:14:23,695
Well, well!

190
00:14:23,695 --> 00:14:27,657
If it isn't the young Miss McMillan!
What an honor!

191
00:14:27,657 --> 00:14:30,702
My name is Nick Maddox.

192
00:14:30,702 --> 00:14:34,706
I am the magician who will make
you shine at tonight's ball.

193
00:14:34,706 --> 00:14:36,750
Please, call me Nick.

194
00:14:36,750 --> 00:14:37,751
What is this?!

195
00:14:37,751 --> 00:14:40,670
I'll be off to get ready, as well.

196
00:14:40,670 --> 00:14:41,671
Hang on!

197
00:14:41,671 --> 00:14:44,716
Nick, take good care of my fiancée.

198
00:14:44,716 --> 00:14:45,717
Wait!

199
00:14:45,717 --> 00:14:48,720
Just leave it all to me!

200
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:49,721
Well, then...

201
00:14:49,721 --> 00:14:54,768
I eagerly await the sight of you looking
even more beautiful than usual, Raeliana.

202
00:14:55,727 --> 00:14:56,728
Noah!

203
00:15:00,732 --> 00:15:03,735
Oh, yes! The wonders of youth!

204
00:15:05,695 --> 00:15:08,657
Your skin is so pliable!

205
00:15:08,740 --> 00:15:10,742
But then again...

206
00:15:10,742 --> 00:15:13,703
Oh, dear! Honey...

207
00:15:14,746 --> 00:15:16,706
Honey?

208
00:15:17,707 --> 00:15:19,751
Don't worry about the little things.

209
00:15:19,751 --> 00:15:22,712
Just come and look at this!

210
00:15:22,712 --> 00:15:24,714
Those bags under your eyes!

211
00:15:29,678 --> 00:15:31,680
Come here.

212
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,683
I'll cover those up nice and neat for you.

213
00:15:34,724 --> 00:15:37,769
I have been studying all the time
and not sleeping lately.

214
00:15:37,769 --> 00:15:41,689
Oh, dear. Now that I look closer,
your skin is so rough.

215
00:15:41,689 --> 00:15:43,733
Sleep deprivation is beauty's
natural enemy, you know.

216
00:15:43,733 --> 00:15:48,738
How can you let yourself get this exhausted
when you're about to get married?

217
00:15:48,738 --> 00:15:51,658
But never fear!

218
00:15:51,658 --> 00:15:57,747
My magic can transform any type of skin
into smooth, silky beauty!

219
00:15:59,707 --> 00:16:03,670
B-By the way, um...

220
00:16:03,670 --> 00:16:05,713
How shall I address you?

221
00:16:05,713 --> 00:16:08,675
Would you prefer M-Madame?

222
00:16:08,675 --> 00:16:11,678
Non, non! I am Monsieur Nick.

223
00:16:15,682 --> 00:16:17,684
Yes! Very nice!

224
00:16:23,731 --> 00:16:26,734
Ta-dah! What do you think?

225
00:16:29,696 --> 00:16:33,658
Monsieur Nick, you're amazing!

226
00:16:33,658 --> 00:16:35,702
Please, just call me "Nick."

227
00:16:35,702 --> 00:16:39,747
Is this really my skin? I look like a doll!

228
00:16:40,707 --> 00:16:42,709
Do you believe me now?

229
00:16:43,710 --> 00:16:48,715
With my power, I will make you
the star of the ball tonight.

230
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,721
Nick!

231
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,682
Mademoiselle!

232
00:17:07,650 --> 00:17:08,693
Wow...

233
00:17:08,693 --> 00:17:09,736
I can't believe I get to
wear such a gorgeous dress.

234
00:17:10,778 --> 00:17:12,780
I knew it would suit you perfectly.

235
00:17:12,780 --> 00:17:15,783
This is all thanks to you, Nick!

236
00:17:16,784 --> 00:17:18,828
All right, come sit down.

237
00:17:18,828 --> 00:17:20,330
I'll do your hair next.

238
00:17:20,747 --> 00:17:23,791
High society values
nothing more than a smile.

239
00:17:24,709 --> 00:17:27,712
Two different types are popular right now.

240
00:17:27,712 --> 00:17:30,798
One is this: the Noah Wynknight smile.

241
00:17:31,716 --> 00:17:35,720
It is offered to everyone equally,
and though it may look sincere,

242
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:40,683
the true message is: "You have
no business speaking to me."

243
00:17:40,767 --> 00:17:42,727
Nick...

244
00:17:43,686 --> 00:17:48,691
Ah, but only Noah Wynknight can pull
that one off, so never mind.

245
00:17:48,691 --> 00:17:51,778
I guess I wasn't the only
one who felt that way.

246
00:17:53,780 --> 00:17:56,741
Seeing the true feelings hidden

247
00:17:56,741 --> 00:17:59,786
behind a smile is a trivial
matter for Monsieur Nick!

248
00:18:00,703 --> 00:18:03,790
And the other is the Vivian Shamal smile.

249
00:18:03,790 --> 00:18:06,709
Vivian Shamal?

250
00:18:06,793 --> 00:18:09,712
She's a real vixen.

251
00:18:09,712 --> 00:18:11,714
Huh? A vixen?

252
00:18:11,714 --> 00:18:13,800
Anyway, putting the little things aside...

253
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:18,763
This is the Vivian Shamal smile.

254
00:18:19,722 --> 00:18:20,765
He's a pro.

255
00:18:20,765 --> 00:18:25,728
And finally, this is the smile
that you will make popular.

256
00:18:25,728 --> 00:18:28,773
Feel free to call it the Nick Maddox smile.

257
00:18:31,734 --> 00:18:33,736
Go on. Do what I do.

258
00:18:33,736 --> 00:18:35,738
Easy for him to say!

259
00:18:35,738 --> 00:18:36,781
Non, non, non!

260
00:18:36,781 --> 00:18:38,783
Your eyes and mouth are too tight!

261
00:18:39,701 --> 00:18:42,787
Picture the face
of the person you hate the most.

262
00:18:45,790 --> 00:18:50,795
However you may fight it,
you can't escape this marriage.

263
00:18:51,754 --> 00:18:53,715
If you saw that person again,

264
00:18:53,715 --> 00:18:55,758
would you shoot them
in the head or the chest?

265
00:18:55,758 --> 00:18:58,720
Without a doubt, the head.

266
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,764
Then imagine you're about
to land that head shot!

267
00:19:01,764 --> 00:19:03,725
Yes, sir!

268
00:19:03,725 --> 00:19:05,727
Not "sir"! I'm Nick!

269
00:19:05,727 --> 00:19:07,728
Yes, Nick!

270
00:19:14,694 --> 00:19:15,778
Master Taylor.

271
00:19:24,203 --> 00:19:27,165
I guess I shouldn't expect him to answer me.

272
00:19:27,165 --> 00:19:29,167
Miss McMillan...

273
00:19:30,168 --> 00:19:32,211
The master awaits you in his study.

274
00:19:32,211 --> 00:19:34,172
Allow me to escort you there.

275
00:19:34,255 --> 00:19:37,175
Thank you, Gideon.

276
00:19:37,216 --> 00:19:42,138
You look truly beautiful, Miss McMillan.

277
00:19:43,139 --> 00:19:44,223
You honor me.

278
00:19:46,225 --> 00:19:51,189
Master, the young Miss McMillan's
preparations are complete.

279
00:19:51,189 --> 00:19:52,190
Enter.

280
00:19:54,192 --> 00:19:58,196
Wait just a moment.
Once I finish this, we'll go—

281
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,198
Do I look strange?

282
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,202
Why isn't he saying anything?

283
00:20:04,202 --> 00:20:07,163
I was sure he'd say something snarky again.

284
00:20:30,228 --> 00:20:34,190
I guess he doesn't even want to
bother with flattery for me.

285
00:20:36,192 --> 00:20:38,236
I have arranged the carriage.

286
00:20:47,161 --> 00:20:51,249
I'm certain he is being bashful
because you look so beautiful.

287
00:20:52,166 --> 00:20:54,251
Bashful? Him?

288
00:20:57,171 --> 00:20:59,173
No way.

289
00:21:04,178 --> 00:21:07,181
Have a lovely evening, Miss McMillan.

290
00:21:07,181 --> 00:21:08,182
Thank you.

291
00:21:15,231 --> 00:21:17,984
Have a lovely evening, Lady Vivian.

292
00:21:29,161 --> 00:21:34,166
Noah, do you know about the two types of
smiles that are popular in high society?

293
00:21:41,215 --> 00:21:43,175
That's...

294
00:21:45,136 --> 00:21:47,221
the Noah Wynknight smile!
