30:22i don't know what other crazy things she might do
30:25seb
30:26i can't
30:27why
30:28this doesn't align
30:29with my ideals
30:32what are your ideals
30:34to be an ordinary person living an ordinary life
30:37not a mistress eloping with a man
30:45i really didn't expect
30:47you'd dare to come back
30:49this is where i work
30:50of course i would return
30:52you think you can still stay here
30:54pack your things and get out
30:56right now
30:57that works too
30:59then i can live happily ever after with your son
31:03you little slut
31:04you shouldn't insult me anymore
31:07i'm very good at whispering in his ear you know
31:17you think you've won
31:18you little bitch
31:20it's far from over
31:32what wind blew you here
31:34shouldn't you be upstairs entertaining our distinguished guest from before at this hour
31:42you know very well i hate socializing yet you still tease me
31:47well what can we do
31:48the most charming lady of the social season has graced us with her presence
31:53if you're not there won't your heroic charms go to waste
32:04my mother invited her
32:06it's obvious what they're up to
32:09that's why i suddenly have urgent military business and must go to london
32:15poor you
32:16come with me
32:18it'll save you from staying here and dealing with their spine
32:20seb i'm not a child
32:21i have to face many things on my own
32:24and have you forgotten i almost killed a piece of trash once
32:27wait for me to return
32:31your household is quite unique
32:34even maids are allowed to serve in the dining room now
32:37as you know it's hard enough to find three able-hearted young men in an entire estate these days
32:42quite true
32:46evelyn
32:46pour some wine for miss ashworth
32:52i heard from my father that even the queen praised sebastian's bravery
32:56are you serious
32:58oh my goodness
32:59when will he ever cure himself of this dreadful habit of being overly modest
33:05you shouldn't say that
33:07nowadays old-fashioned gentlemen like sebastian are rarer than a rhino's hair
33:11i'd rather be knocked unconscious right now than listen to the two of them carry on with this chaprade
33:16i also think so
33:18and because he is so precious
33:20there are always those who hyper unrealistic fantasies about him
33:23madam
33:24what kind of lady do you think would be a suitable match for your son
33:28don't you already know the answer to that
33:31of all the noble ladies in england
33:34you are the only one i wrote to
33:39a woman's intuition is indeed remarkably accurate
33:44by the way margaret
33:46i heard from your mother that your birthday is in a week
33:49seb will surely be back by then
33:52we must celebrate your birthday
33:54a ball
33:55hunting
33:56a live band
33:57i know those are all things you love and excel at
34:00madam
34:01wouldn't that be too much trouble for you
34:03of course not
34:05seb loves hunting too
34:07i'll have him accompany you then
34:15you seem quite interested in her
34:19i just feel that she doesn't seem like an ordinary maid
34:21oh
34:23i'm a very good judge of character

39:46what an embarrassment
39:49i do not agree to this marriage
39:51miss ashfield
39:52my mother's decision does not represent my own
39:56if she insists on uniting our family

40:04and marry into your family himself
40:10miss evelyn

40:49it is real
40:57i actually
40:58i'm really not that good
41:01that doesn't sound like something you would say
41:04what if you discover that i'm
41:06actually a very bad person
41:09aren't you
41:10in my eyes you have always been a little troublemaker
41:17i told you my feelings not to burden you
41:20but to let you know that in this world you are no longer alone
41:33he is wonderful
41:35but not nearly enough to make me let go of my hatred
41:45stop right there
41:46stop right there
41:53did you sleep well last night
41:56of course madam
41:59that's why i actually admire you

42:06living under your enemy's roof
42:08i would sleep with one eye open wouldn't you
42:11you might as well speak plainly madam
42:13mary elizabeth thornton
42:15born in 1921 new york
42:18father david thornton wealthy manhattan businessman
42:21mother katherine thornton
42:23sister sophia thornton
42:25when little mary was eight
42:26her governess and her gangster boyfriend
42:28collided to squeal the thorntons out of everything
42:30david thornton was beaten to death by lone harks
42:33sophia thornton was violated to death
42:35katherine thornton slit her wrists
42:37little mary was sent to an orphanage
42:43does this story sound familiar to you little mary
42:47doesn't it read just like a piece of tabloid news
42:51reading these letters even i felt like shedding a tear or two for poor little mary
42:57so you came here for revenge from the very first day
43:00am i right
43:01i really didn't recognize that little bastard who cowered on her tiny bed
43:06watching me sleep with her father without daring to utter a single sound
43:10had grown up to be so big
43:13you knew i was awake
43:15i figured you did
43:16yes i knew
43:17your father took advantage of me and now my son takes advantage of you
43:21doesn't that make us even
43:22how is that the same no matter how wretched i am
43:24i would never compare myself to an old whore
43:26go ahead curse all you want
43:29compared to what i took from your family
43:30being insulted by you means absolutely nothing to me
43:33how tragic
43:34why does he have a mother like you
43:36in all these years has there been even a single moment when you felt a shred of guilt for what
43:42guilt
43:44oh young lady you are delightfully naive
43:46it is a dog eat dog world
43:48that old horny dog of a father of yours deserved to pay for his lust
43:52as for your sister
43:54she brought it upon herself dying in a swarm of men
43:57is that my fault
43:59and your useless mother
44:00a mother who cannot protect her own child doesn't deserve to live in this world anyway does she
44:05look at me
44:06look at me
44:07i would do anything for my son
44:08you are absolutely right
44:11it is a dog eat dog world
44:13i was too naive to ask a mad dog if she felt guilt
44:18at this stage there's no need for me to kick you out is there
44:21if i see you tomorrow don't blame me for having you thrown out
44:34my dearest seb
44:35since the day you left home i have departed from the castle and checked into the red lion inn in
