00:25Episode 549 Unorthodox Negotiations
00:30Halfway Edward asked disdainfully,
00:34Are you trying to broker some sort of deal using our ties with your family's business
00:38as leverage?
00:40I couldn't care less if we work with you or not.
00:43I could cancel our contract at any time.
00:46My sister is currently in charge of the business, Peter said.
00:50I don't have the authority to wave it around as a bargaining chip, even if I wanted to.
00:56That's why I think we should settle this another way.
01:00Edward now regarded him with interest.
01:03Are you trying to say that you want to fight me?
01:06He asked incredulously.
01:09I don't want to fight you, but I'm willing to.
01:12If that means you swear, you'll stop hitting Claire.
01:16You do know that I box as a hobby.
01:18I've been doing this for over 20 years, Edward said.
01:22I do know that.
01:24I'm assuming that's also why Claire has so many injuries all over her body, Peter said.
01:30Edward grinned and asked, Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?
01:33Not really, Peter said.
01:35I'm a lot younger and more nimble than you are.
01:39Fine, Edward said.
01:41If you want to dig your own grave, follow me.
01:45Edward turned on his heel and led Peter to his home gym.
01:50Over the years, the older businessman had constantly made use of these facilities to
01:55keep himself fit and healthy, and the well-worn punching bag in the corner was a testament
02:00to his commitment.
02:02Are you sure you want to do this?
02:04He asked as he pointed to the empty boxing ring.
02:08I'm sure, as a way of emphasizing his certainty, Peter removed his shirt and casually threw
02:14it on the ground.
02:15But let's get this straight.
02:18If I win, you'll never lay a finger on Claire again.
02:21And what if I win?
02:23Edward retorted.
02:25Peter looked him squarely in the eye and said, If you win, you can name your price.
02:31He's a complete fool, Claire's father thought, but he's clearly more than just an overpaid
02:37pop star.
02:38It's time to let my fists do the talking, Peter thought.
02:43Jumping into the ring alongside his opponent and appraising the older man's toned physique,
02:48it's not too late to walk out of here unscathed.
02:51Is my daughter really worth getting the beating of your life?
02:55Make your move, Peter replied in line with his business strategies.
03:01Edward's punches were quick and ruthless, and there was a surprising amount of power
03:05behind them.
03:07Peter quickly dodged out of the way of the other man's fist, narrowly avoiding having
03:12his nose broken.
03:14This surprised Edward, as few people had been fast enough to sidestep his hits during their
03:19bouts, including his long-time training partner.
03:23This is going to be more interesting than I thought.
03:26He mused while nimbly jumping around the ring.
03:30Edward didn't know that Peter had boxed during his school days, and even won a few trophies.
03:36Soon, though, his lack of fitness began to show, and he was already beginning to tire.
03:42A few minutes into the fight, Claire's father took this opportunity to throw a series of
03:47heavy punches that eventually had Peter lying on the floor.
03:52However, the young man had no intention of backing down now.
03:57Instead, he bravely got back onto his feet and channeled his fury into releasing a flurry
04:02of punches that soon had Edward backed up against one of the posts.
04:08The corner of Edward's mouth began to bleed, and he soon lifted his hands to the air to
04:12surrender.
04:13You win.
04:14I give up, he stated begrudgingly, admiring the fact that he had been beaten so soundly.
04:22Peter walked away from him and sat down in the opposite corner, quietly looking on as
04:27Edward found a towel to press to his bleeding mouth.
04:31Do you intend to keep your promise?
04:34He eventually asked.
04:37I always honor my word.
04:39Edward responded, walking out of the ring and then exiting the gym.
04:44Upstairs, Claire was pacing back and forth in her room, unsure of what was going on between
04:49Peter and her father.
04:51What if my father's beaten him to death?
04:53She wondered, wanting to sneak out and check on him.
04:57Just then, her bedroom door suddenly burst open and her father appeared, fearing the
05:03worst.
05:04She cowered away from him, but he'd no attempt to approach her.
05:08That Miller idiot sure has guts.
05:11Get yourself cleaned up and then come down for some breakfast, he said, looking on as
05:17his daughter's jaw began to drop in shock.
05:20I hear you two used to go to the same school.
05:23You do know that guys rarely get into fights for girls.
05:26You're just friends with.
05:29What's he implying?
05:30She wondered, continuing to stare at her father blankly.
05:34A few minutes later, both Edward and Claire entered the dining room.
05:39Peter was already sitting at the table.
05:42Are you okay?
05:44She asked immediately, running over to him.
05:47I'm fine.
05:49It's nothing I can't handle.
05:51Peter laughed as he brushed away her outstretched hands.
05:55She then leaned toward her to whisper, I've still got dirt on your stepmother.
05:59We can use that if we need to.
06:02How many times did he hit you?
06:04Claire asked, still examining his wounds.
06:07Not as many times as I hit him.
06:10Peter glanced briefly at Edward's injuries and smirked.
06:13Don't worry.
06:14Your father won't hurt you for a while.
06:17Overhearing the conversation, Edward glowered at the two of them.
06:22Do you really think I'm going to stop chastising my daughter in the way I see fit?
06:28Because some washed-up singer has asked me to?
06:31My wife and I make the rules in this house, and Claire is expected to stick to them.
06:36Across the table, Janet gripped her husband's hand and smiled smugly at her stepdaughter
06:42and their guest.
06:45Note 550 ONCE EVERYONE HAS A WEAKNESS
06:50Looking every bit the conquering villain, Edward lifted his chin and smirked at Peter.
06:56Winning was everything to this man, even if it involved lying.
07:01Please leave with me right now, Peter said, getting to his feet and holding his hand out
07:06for his friend to take.
07:08Claire sat in silence for a moment, not knowing what to do.
07:12If I hadn't thought that your wife was going to cheat you out of your entire fortune and
07:17ruin the business I would have left years ago, Claire finally said.
07:22Oh, please.
07:24You're only worried about your inheritance.
07:27Edward leaned forward on the table, threateningly.
07:30I created Bains International from the ground up.
07:33I can give the company to whomever I damn well want.
07:36Are you really pitting me against her?
07:39Claire said, pointing at Janet.
07:42Not at all.
07:43Her father replied, calm, taking a bite of his toast.
07:48There's no contest.
07:49I'll always choose my wife over you.
07:52Shocked by his words, all Claire could do was fight back tears.
07:57Peter felt unable to stomach the situation any longer.
08:01I need to leave, he said to Claire.
08:04If I stay, I can't guarantee that I won't knock your father out cold this time.
08:09As if you're capable of doing that.
08:12Edward said with a laugh, I'm more than happy to try.
08:17Peter responded, stealing himself for another fight.
08:20Claire remained perfectly still in her seat.
08:23Are you coming?
08:24Peter asked again.
08:26There still didn't answer.
08:28She just looked at Janet, who was grinning at her, sure that she would finally be rid
08:32of this thorn in her side.
08:35This is my home.
08:36I don't want to go there.
08:39Emily said, but you've made it impossible for me to stay.
08:43They left the house and got back into Peter's car, where he asked her, how long has this
08:48been going on?
08:51Ever since Janet married my father, she replied, letting out a heavy sigh.
08:56You've already done enough for me.
08:58You don't need to risk the contract between Miller Corp. and my father's company as well.
09:03I've got an idea, Peter said.
09:06He turned the key in the ignition and drove toward the destination he had in mind.
09:12I don't like scheming against other people, Peter said, but I know someone who does.
09:18Soon, Peter and Claire arrived at Emma's apartment.
09:21I really need you to help clear out.
09:25Peter said, first of all, are you going to tell me why you're both covered with bruises?
09:30She asked.
09:32Peter explained everything that had gone on with Claire, Edward and Janet.
09:37After hearing everything, she rubbed her hand over her face and sighed, what do you want
09:42me to do?
09:43We were hoping you might have some ideas about that, Peter said.
09:48If we were only dealing with Edward Baines, the situation might be easy to resolve.
09:54But his wife is a further complication, and the thought, wasn't Janet Mitchell one of
09:59the other nominees in my category, she asked.
10:02Yeah, Peter said with a nod.
10:06I'm not sure I should get involved in another family's issues.
10:10His sister responded, wary of how little she knew about the Baines personal matters.
10:16Peter's face fell, the disappointment plain to see.
10:20Look at what that man has done to Claire.
10:23Please help us to think of a way to deal with this, he said.
10:27Why don't you think of something yourself, Emma responded, because I'm no good at this
10:31kind of thing.
10:33Her brother sat back in his seat and stared down at his hands.
10:37If I was, things would probably be a whole lot different for me.
10:42Well aware that her brother was referring to his past, Emma suggested that Peter leave
10:47so that she and Claire could talk alone.
10:50Without hesitation, he got to his feet and left them to it, as relief washed over him.
10:56My sister has a plan.
10:59After all, he thought, closing the front door behind him when they were alone, Emma looked
11:05at all the bruises on Claire's arms and felt anger bubble up inside her.
11:11No wonder my little brother feels so protective of her, she thought, disgusted by what her
11:16father had done to her.
11:18Once there is a way for me to help you, Emma eventually stated, breaking the awkward silence
11:24between her and her guest.
11:26Janet still needs to pay for what she did to me too.
11:30She has my father's backing though, I've tried so many times to get rid of her, but she always
11:34turns it around.
11:36Claire said, that could be because you haven't dealt with the situation head on.
11:41Emma leaned a little closer to her guest.
11:44The only way to get rid of people like Janet Mitchell is to pull them out by the roots.
11:50Claire sighed and nodded her head, please, I really need your help with this.
11:56She stated, her eyes pleading with the other woman.
11:59Okay, we can give it a try, but I need you to do something for me.
12:05Emma responded, making Claire practically jump to the edge of her seat while eagerly
12:09nodding her head.
12:10I'm going to need you to toughen up.
12:13That will mean working against your father to get what's rightfully yours.
12:17You mean the company?
12:19I asked.
12:20Emma slowly nodded, trying to gauge the other woman's reaction.
12:24Your father will have given you shares in the past, which we can use against him.
12:30As for Janet, there are so many ways that you can drive her mad.
12:34Noticing a hint of a smile on Claire's face, Emma began to sense that this might actually
12:40work.
12:41Everyone has a weakness, she thought, even Edward Baines and Janet Mitchell.
