When I marry... it's going to be an arrangement, right? There isn't time for niceties like getting to know each other properly, falling in love, any of that.

[ The best he can hope for here is instant attraction, and for sure they've got that going here but that isn't what Giselle wants. At least that's not the impression he's been given. ]

I hope I'll get along with my wife. Hell, maybe I even will fall in love with her, eventually.

[ He smiles at her a little, and there is tremendous sadness in it, but also genuine affection. ]

Falling in love with someone like you... I can't imagine it'd be too hard. But I can't swear to you that it's how things would turn out, do you understand? I care about you, Giselle. I want you to be happy, and if I knew without a shadow of a doubt that I could do that for you... well, I would be one lucky son of a bitch.
