Transcript
00:03It's a boy. Perfect.
00:07George now has an heir, and my position is secure.
00:13Bella, kill her and clean this mess up.
00:17Miss Eleanor, you promised freedom once the child was born.
00:21Freedom? Look at you. Covered in blood, no better than a kennel, bitch.
00:26Do you deserve freedom?
00:31Mother, save me!
00:35I'm not your mother. Never was.
00:39Nineteen years ago, I swapped my daughter with the Countess.
00:42My daughter became Lady Eleanor.
00:44And the Countess's daughter, you, became a maid.
00:49Now you even have to bear a child for my daughter.
00:52No, impossible!
00:57What's the racket?
00:59No, George! They're trying to kill me!
01:02Save me! For the child, I won't be!
01:06Annoying. Silence her forever.
01:25Am I dead? Where am I?
01:28To ensure Lady Eleanor's health and her relationship with Vichant George remain unaffected by pregnancy, the most suitable among you
01:37will be chosen to bear their heir.
01:38This is three years ago. The day I was chosen as a surrogate maid!
01:48Too skinny. Next.
01:56My lady, Miss, Catherine is the most suitable. She's beautiful, well mannered, and will fulfill the task perfectly.
02:05Good. Sign the contract and send her off.
02:07Countess, my real mother. I'm your true daughter. But if I speak now, they'll call me mad.
02:12Wait. I'll return with proof and stand before you with dignity.
02:15Remember, Catherine, your only worth is to bear an heir for me at Hockmore. Complete the task faithfully, and I'll
02:22grant you freedom.
02:23I understand, Miss Eleanor. I'll bear the heir for you and Lord George as promised.
02:30This life, I won't be deceived again. I'll marry your father-in-law, Duke William, the most powerful man in
02:35Hockmore.
02:36Once I'm the lady, I'll throw you all into that sewer myself.
02:46Henry, settle the horses. Report to the study in an hour.
02:49Yes, Your Grace. Welcome home.
02:54Duke William. The man I'm meant to marry. With his power, I'll crush every enemy who harmed me.
03:01This is the path I must walk in my new life.
03:07This is the strongest aphrodigia. Tonight, I'll make this powerful Duke remember me.
03:18Who are you? Why are you here so late?
03:20Forgive me, Your Grace. I'm Catherine, the new maid serving Lady Eleanor. I was sent to fetch water. The castle's
03:26so vast, I got lost. It wasn't intentional.
03:29Eleanor's maid? From Windsor? Do you know the penalty for trespassing here at night?
03:34I-I-I know. With him. Or the dungeons. Please, Your Grace. It was truly an accident.
03:38An accident? Or a carefully planned move?
03:41I was lost.
03:43I was lost. And now, you've found me.
03:47And now, you've found me.
04:02I was lost.
04:12Today's the day I'm supposed to share the bed with the villain. I need Duke William to see his own
04:18son lying beside the woman he desires.
04:27Catherine!
04:42Why are you coming from that direction?
04:44Miss, I got lost. The castle's like a maze at night. I took a wrong turn.
04:49Lost? To the Duke's study door? Your hair's disheveled, your lips are swollen. Does that look like getting lost? Who
04:56do you think you're fooling?
04:59Remember why you were sent here.
05:04I swear I didn't mean to. The Duke found me. He was furious, questioned me, then let me go. I
05:09know my purpose. I'm here to help you and Lord George have a child. How could I dare to think
05:14otherwise?
05:16Your purpose? Exactly. Time to fulfill the agreement. Now let's go. To the Viscount's room. Right now.
05:28George, she's here.
05:33Ah, the little beauty.
05:37Don't waste time. Get it done today.
05:41No, Lord George.
05:43Silence! You do well to obey.
06:02Ten years. I've never felt such a stirring for any woman. But last night, why did a mere maid shake
06:08me so? I need to uncover the truth about her.
06:13Your Grace.
06:15There was a maid last night. Catherine, serving Lady Eleanor.
06:20Find her. Bring her to me at once.
06:22My Lord, that girl, she's a contractual asset delivered by Countess Margaret and Lady Eleanor.
06:28Her sole purpose is to bear an heir for Lord George.
06:30And now, she's in Lord George's chambers. Today is the day to fulfill the contract.
06:48Finally quiet. Let's continue.
07:01Let's continue.
07:06Hurry up, George. I don't plan to waste the whole day here.
07:10Then get out. Stop hovering.
07:13Why?
07:14I need to watch. Make sure she fulfills her duty.
07:19Damn. My stomach's kidding me. Go to my study. Left will bring the medicine. Now.
07:25Now?
07:27Right now. Unless you want to be a widow.
07:35Finally quiet. Let's continue.
07:46What is this?
07:50Father, what brings you here?
07:53I just...
07:54Get out.
08:02Look at me.
08:07Did you leave this last night?
08:09I... I... I was scared after last night. I didn't know what to do.
08:13I... I thought maybe you'd remember.
08:15But then Lady Eleanor found me.
08:18Brought me here.
08:19Told me to fulfill the agreement.
08:21I refused, begged her, but...
08:23You're never to enter this room again.
08:25Or be near George. Understood?
08:27I understand.
08:28That I'm bound by contract to Lady Eleanor.
08:31I'll handle Eleanor's contract.
08:32From now on, you answer to me.
08:34Henry!
08:39Take her to the West Wing guest suite.
08:41Prepare clothes, necessities and reliable staff.
08:44Go clean yourself up.
08:45Yes, Your Grace.
08:47Yes, Your Grace.
08:51My lady, the Duke sent me to look after you.
08:54Thank you for saving me.
08:56I'd have been beaten to death by the Viscount and his wife otherwise.
09:00Don't mention it, Rebecca.
09:02But I need your help with something.
09:04Anything you ask, my lady.
09:09Slip this potion into Lord George's wine.
09:11Then tell Eleanor we're meeting in the East Wing's unused blue salon.
09:16We'll make those who wronged us pay.
09:20Consider it done, my lady.
09:30Miss! I swear I saw it!
09:32Lord George went in.
09:33And not long after, Catherine slipped in too.
09:35The door's shut and there's indecent noises coming from inside.
09:37How dare they betray me, slut!
09:39It's my lord.
09:47Bella!
09:54I wasn't lying, Mother.
09:55The Vinnet told me you've been obsessed with you.
09:57I knew my charm hadn't faded.
09:59If I could capture the Viscount and not rely on Eleanor,
10:02I would be able to fully enjoy my wealth and honour.
10:06Wait here for him.
10:07I'll leave you two alone.
10:09I'll leave you two alone.
10:15You came.
10:17My beauty.
10:19I knew you couldn't resist.
10:22No more games, sweetheart.
10:24You're mine.
10:42You old hag!
10:43How did you end up in my bed?
10:46I thought I was with Catherine.
10:48You thought she was Catherine?
10:51And you, Bella?
10:54Did you think you were someone else too?
10:57Or did you just seize the chance and not even spare your daughter's husband?
11:11What happened?
11:12I heard the noise.
11:14What happened?
11:15Perfect timing.
11:17Did you say that the Viscount asked me to wait for him here?
11:20Bella!
11:21You dare steal my husband?
11:24No!
11:25I mean, Catherine drugged me and brought me here.
11:29Me?
11:30Impossible.
11:31I've been in my room all afternoon.
11:33The maids can vouch.
11:34Enough!
11:35You disgust me, old witch!
11:38Guards! Kill her!
11:40Eleanor, save me.
11:41If I die, you won't fare well either.
11:44I'm your mother!
11:46If I could, please calm down.
11:48Perhaps, perhaps Lady Bella was merely momentarily misguided.
11:52She's humiliated you, yes, but she's served me for years.
11:54The execution's too harsh!
11:56Maybe confine-
11:57Harsh?
11:57She deserves death.
11:59Gouge her eyes, cut out her tongue first, then the dungeon.
12:02For your sake, I'll spare the execution.
12:05Do as you say.
12:06Thomas!
12:07Ah!
12:08No!
12:11Let me go!
12:16No!
12:18It wasn't me!
12:21It's Catherine, that devil.
12:22She orchestrated hell nor George to tell Lady Eleanor.
12:25You!
12:26You violent, treacherous demon.
12:29Silence!
12:30Is this how you treat your own mother?
12:33Are you my mother?
12:34You're just a pathetic, greedy old woman who forgot her place.
12:38A governess who tried to climb into Hanagatard's bed.
12:41You know the truth about your birth.
12:43I confess.
12:44I'll tell all.
12:45You're the true daughter of the Count.
12:47Stare me!
12:48Last life, you stole my life, my name, my mother.
12:50Gave me 19 years of slavery and a death in a sewer.
12:54Now pay with your eyes and tongue.
12:56No!
13:05The dungeon business.
13:07Is it done?
13:08Yes, your grace.
13:10As Lord George ordered.
13:12I don't care about George's orders.
13:14I asked about your business.
13:15Is it finished?
13:16He knows.
13:17How much does he expect?
13:18You play the part well, like a frightened lost lamb.
13:22Lambs don't leave tokens on a duke's bed or walk from a bloody dungeon with an aura of vengeance.
13:27Your grace, I don't understand your meaning.
13:30I only-
13:30From the moment I almost saw you I suspected.
13:32You're far more complex than you pretend.
13:35Who are you, really?
13:36What do you want?
13:43From the first time you got lost, and ended up in my bed, to now, kneeling here.
13:50You've been plotting your way closer to me, step by step.
13:53So tell me, what do you really want?
13:57I want my stolen life back, your grace.
14:00I am the Countess's true-born daughter.
14:04Proof?
14:04On my left shoulder blade, there's a maple leaf-shaped birthmark.
14:14What does a birthmark prove?
14:16There are records in the old medical logs of the Earl's household.
14:19Document, find the evidence, and it will prove everything.
14:23So you came to me?
14:25To use my sword for your revenge?
14:27Not just revenge.
14:29I need protection, your grace.
14:31I need a position high enough to stand against them.
14:33Just please.
14:37You're clever, Katrin.
14:39You know exactly how to manipulate a man's most primal instincts.
14:43I had no other choice.
14:46With such sexy lips, such a hot body, and so many secrets in your mind, how could I miss them
14:52so easily?
14:53Starting tomorrow, you move out of the maid's quarters.
14:55You'll take the position of my clerical assistant and reside in the chamber next to my study.
14:59You doing this?
15:00Keeping you under my watchful eye.
15:01Every move you make, every person you meet, I'll know about it.
15:05Surveillance, but also...
15:07Protection.
15:10Yes, your grace.
15:12Catherine!
15:16Remember everything you've told me tonight.
15:18If even one word is a lie, you know the price of deceiving me.
15:23A size beneath the moonlight, like a pearl sinking into a deep pool.
15:30Pretty, but lacks a certain novelty.
15:40Novelty.
15:40Novelty?
15:41Speaking of which, we've recently welcomed a novel figure at Hawkmoor.
15:47Look at this, Miss Catherine.
15:49Just days ago, she was my dotic maid, specifically tasked with bearing my husband's heir.
15:54Now, she's somehow transformed into a document assistant in the Duke's study.
15:59Even more numerically, she managed to get lost and end up in your grace's bed.
16:03Should we perhaps address her as...
16:06Hawkmoor's whore?
16:09Miss Eleanor, by slandering me so, aren't you afraid I'll tell everyone
16:12that your mother, Bella, is the one who truly climbed into your husband's bed?
16:18Oh, you bish!
16:20I saw it with my own eyes in the blue salon, and she was so loud when having sex with
16:26your husband.
16:27You lowly whore!
16:37Miss, though I may be of humble birth, I am also the Duke's personally appointed clerk assistant.
16:43I only wish to do my job well.
16:46Why must you treat me this way?
16:48You bish! Don't play the innocent with me!
16:50You can fool the Duke, but not me!
16:53Watch me beat you to death!
16:55Stop!
17:05Your Grace, you've come just in time. I'm just lecturing this one who doesn't know the rules.
17:09I didn't ask you.
17:17Does it hurt?
17:20Your Grace, she started it, she provoked me first.
17:28What I saw was her not crossing any boundaries while you struck her.
17:34By Hockmore law, anyone who strikes another without cause receives twenty lashes and is banished from the castle.
17:42Your Grace!
17:43I have respect for your family name, and because you are my daughter-in-law, I'll spare you this time.
17:47I hope this is the last time.
17:53The injury on your face needs ice. Come with me.
18:09Come here, Jenny.
18:11Put this into the rose soap Catherine uses every day.
18:16I want her to weaken slowly, silently. Her skin to rot. Her hair to fall out.
18:23Miss, it's too dangerous. What if we're caught-
18:27Do it right away.
18:29Otherwise, you'll be sold to the brothel at the docks tomorrow, I promise.
18:32The men there will make you miss every day of this.
18:38Get it done by tonight. Get out.
18:43This rose soap smells wrong.
18:46Beneath the sweet rose scent lies a pungent metallic odour, arsenic mixture.
18:51Eleanor, your clumsy trick from a past life. Do you really think it'll work again this time?
18:56You'll never imagine that this sneaky move of yours will backfire on you, but for me, it's the perfect opportunity
19:01to gain the Duke's sympathy and care.
19:05Rebecca, starting from tomorrow, tell everyone that I'm sick.
19:08Headache, fatigue, loss of appetite.
19:10But you're not-
19:11Just do as I say.
19:16Also, there's something wrong with this soap. Someone mixed it with chronic poison trying to disfigure me.
19:21Swap it tonight with the one an Eleanor usually uses in her bathroom.
19:26Swap it? You mean use her own poison against her-
19:30Yes, the gift she gave. Of course should be tasted by her herself. Be careful, don't be noticed.
19:36I understand, my lady. Leave it to me.
19:52Henry said you're sick.
19:57Just a little tired, your grace. Nothing to worry about.
20:05You look very bad. How's a physician seen you?
20:09No need. I'm just a little cold.
20:12Your hands are as cold as ice.
20:15Could you stay with me for a while? Just for a little while?
20:24That's it. Duke's affection to me is growing bit by bit. The goal is getting closer.
20:30This act must be played to the end.
20:38Why do I lose so much hair?
20:41It's so itchy.
20:46No! No! No! My face! My hair!
20:52This smell. This damn smell. It was supposed to be in Catherine's room.
20:57How? Chance did it end up here?
21:01Catherine. You vicious bitch! How dare you? How dare you do this to me?
21:07I swear, I will make you pay a hundredfold, a thousandfold price!
21:16Your Grace! Take a look! These rashes all over my hands! And my face!
21:26It's all that wicked Catherine's doing. She poisoned the soap, trying to disfigure me, to kill me!
21:32Is there such a thing?
21:35Eleanor, within Hockmore Castle, accusations against anything or anyone require evidence.
21:41Go back to your room first. I will have Henry investigate this thoroughly.
21:44I know, Your Grace! I swear, it's her! You must avenge me!
21:50I said I will handle it.
21:53Alright, Your Grace. I'm waiting for your investigation results.
22:03Eleanor's maid, Jenny, has confessed everything.
22:07She admitted that it was Mrs. Eleanor herself who ordered her to add the poison to the soap, targeting Miss
22:13Catherine.
22:13But somehow that poison soap ended up being used by Mrs. Eleanor herself.
22:21Evidence?
22:23Jenny handed over the remaining powder of the poison.
22:27This is it. We found the apothecary who sold it.
22:30He confirmed that the purchaser was Mrs. Eleanor's personal maid, and described her appearance and the amount of gold coins
22:37she paid, which were consistent with the facts.
22:41Plot harm, then file false accusations to cover it up.
22:45Pure evil and unforgivable. She must be severely punished.
22:49Your Grace.
22:55Mrs. Eleanor has already been punished.
22:57She harmed herself with her own poison.
23:00Perhaps no additional punishment is needed.
23:03Just restricting Mrs. Eleanor's movements is enough.
23:05Let us stay in her room and reflect on her misdeeds.
23:09Eleanor Windsor, from today, is confined to her room, not to leave without my express permission.
23:14Remove most of her servants, leaving only Cato to serve allowances, providing on only the basic living...
23:21Father!
23:22I heard you mean to punish Eleanor! She is my wife!
23:26You cannot do this to her!
23:29Precisely because she's your wife that I must punish her.
23:32As the young mistress of Hotmore Castle, instead of setting an example, plotted to harm others.
23:37It's unforgivable.
23:39Father! She might just be confused for a moment.
23:42This is an order, George.
23:51Is this what you want?
23:53What?
23:55What?
23:55This play was performed extremely wonderful.
24:00Right and wrong, good and evil, I believe.
24:03You has own judgement.
24:05You still chose to help me, didn't you?
24:07I wonder how many secrets are still hidden in you.
24:21Your...
24:22Your Grace, what are you going to do?
24:26Why did you plead for her?
24:29You know she deserved punishment, you know she tried to kill you.
24:32I know.
24:34But why?
24:38Because...
24:38I didn't want this to be hard for you.
24:42Hard for me?
24:44She's your daughter-in-law.
24:46George is your son.
24:48If you punished her severely, there would be a rift between father and son.
24:56You were thinking of me.
24:58Can I?
25:05Catherine, do you know what I hate the most?
25:08Being played, especially, by a woman I can't see through.
25:15Every step you take is perfectly timed.
25:19Every word you speak falls at exactly the right moment.
25:24You made me investigate your past, you showed me your scars, you made me...
25:29unable to resist protecting you.
25:33What if I told you...
25:35I'm not playing you?
25:38Then tell me...
25:40what part of you is real?
25:44That I didn't want this to be hard for you.
25:47That part...
25:49is real.
25:51Then prove it.
25:57You still don't trust me.
25:59You're too perfect, Catherine.
26:01Every appearance is flawlessly timed.
26:03Every word strikes a chord in my heart.
26:05The perfect victim.
26:07The perfect avenger.
26:08The perfect...
26:09temptress.
26:11Then why do you still?
26:13I want you, but I won't let myself fall in love with you.
26:18What if I told you...
26:20this moment I'm giving myself to you willingly.
26:23Would you believe it?
26:32Damn Catherine!
26:34She's actually hooked up with Duke.
26:35It won't be long before she's riding on our heads.
26:38My father wouldn't be serious about a servant.
26:40I need to teach her a lesson to make her know her place.
26:49Catherine, perhaps you'd favour us with a tune on the harsh accord.
26:53She's been a maid all her life.
26:55How would she know how to play?
26:58As a maid, if she fails to meet her master's demands,
27:02walking to the rules, she will be slapped in public and then expelled from the house.
27:05You can't possibly play.
27:08If you want to listen, I'll play a piece as you wish.
27:11Cut the axe!
27:13Help is a lowborn trash like you possibly play the harpsichord.
27:31She is so talented.
27:37Oh my goodness, this skill is more exquisite than that of a court musician.
27:42She's a maid.
27:44What?
27:46Mother.
27:46Look at Catherine.
27:48As a maid, she's not content with her duties but shows off at the ball.
27:52She's humiliating me.
27:54Even the most refined skill cannot change a lowborn nature.
27:59Mother, I'm your biological daughter.
28:01You stand with the one who harmed me and speak of my nature, lowborn.
28:05Who said she's a maid?
28:07Catherine is my personally appointed clerk and an honoured guest of Hockmore Castle.
28:11Anyone who calls her a maid again is insulting this ducal house.
28:17Even if that someone is my own son and daughter-in-law.
28:22Just how many more surprises are hidden inside you?
28:30Eleanor, your mother is unwell.
28:32It's time you escorted her back.
28:38Mother, you don't recognise me.
28:40But one day, I'll make you see the truth.
28:42See who is truly lowborn.
