Chapter 97 Elizabeth
Los Angeles, also known as the City of Angels.

Jack came to Los Angeles for the second time, but the previous experience was not pleasant. Who could have imagined that fate would turn around and he and Tony would become friends again.

But Jack didn't visit Tony immediately. After all, exposing his relationship with Tony at this time would only arouse Obaday's vigilance.

Jack also plans to appear at the last moment to turn the tide and save Tony from the fire.

This is a perfect plan that cannot be broken.

Although he can't visit Tony, Jack still has many places to go, such as: the Los Angeles branch of the mutant support club.

The chapter leader reports a potential mutant there, and she's one of the reasons Jack came to Los Angeles.

Under the guidance of Robinson, a staff member of the support club, Jack came to the Harder community.

"She lives here?" Jack asked a little puzzled.

Hader Neighborhood is a large upscale community.

Large means that there are many residents here, and high-end means that the people living in it are either rich or expensive, so this is not a place where mutants would live.

Robinson smiled humbly: "She doesn't live here, she just works here. In fact, Elizabeth's financial situation is not good, and she is in a little trouble now."

"What's the trouble?"

"Elizabeth is a British citizen who just came to Los Angeles. Because she is not familiar with Los Angeles, she signed an unfair contract with Psylocke Entertainment. Now she has no way to leave this company."

Jack felt happy, most mutants wished to stay away from the crowd, but this Elizabeth, who actually wanted to be a star, sounded like an alternative.

This also made Jack very curious about who this Elizabeth was.

"Let's go, let's meet this mutant who was praised by you."

Robinson nodded respectfully, led the way, and led Jack around to a "company" that seemed to be about to go bankrupt.

In fact, when Jack joined Spirit Butterfly Entertainment, he couldn't regard Spirit Butterfly Entertainment as a company.

Although the business is located in an upscale neighborhood, it's really just a three-bedroom studio.

Three outdated sofas casually visit the living room, there is no front desk or reception.

Jack sat on the sofa by himself, but there was a creaking sound from the sofa.

Jack swears, he's been on a diet lately, so it's never about Jack's weight.

"I feel like I've come to a liar company." Jack looked at Robinson who was standing aside respectfully, and said.

Robinson smiled awkwardly, but he felt the same way.

Caliban, the owner of Spirit Butterfly Entertainment, is a wretched young man. He wore a traditional West Coast costume, a big gold chain, a small watch and sunglasses, pretending to be always with him, and walked in through the door bang bang bang.

When he saw someone in the company, he immediately wanted to turn around and run.

After seeing Robinson clearly, he turned around and said loudly with emotion:

"Robinson, I've made it clear to you a long time ago that Elizabeth is an artist of our Spirit Butterfly Entertainment, and we will open up a road to Hollywood for her. Don't bother us anymore!"

"Mr. Caliban, I must tell you solemnly that the contract between you and Elizabeth is an unequal contract and an illegal contract."

Facing Caliban's groundless accusations, Robinson retorted.

"You can sue me!"

Caliban looked like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

Jack frowned, to be honest, he hasn't encountered such a thing for a long time.

Since he stepped into the political world, the worst person he has ever met is Hammer, but Hammer actually has a net worth of 30 billion U.S. dollars, and it is not too much to call him a rich man.

Jack is not familiar with Los Angeles, so he decided to test Caliban first:
"How much money do you need to release Elizabeth?"

Caliban laughed. He glanced at Jack and asked loudly, "Are you the backer that Robinson found? I tell you clearly that if you want to take Elizabeth away, you need to pay a liquidated damages of 50 U.S. dollars!"

"How many?"

Jack wondered if he had heard wrong.

"50, please leave for a penny less!" Caliban said triumphantly.

50 million?dollars?

Jack hasn't heard such a low price for a long time!
It seems that maybe the handbag that Blink bought back last week was also 50 dollars...

So what is there to hesitate about?

Jack said to Mark indifferently: "Sign a check to him!"

Mark, who was standing by the side, immediately took out the checkbook, but he hadn't had time to write yet...

Caliban spoke again: "Sir, we only accept cash here."

Jack frowned, he felt he was being made things difficult!However, he suppressed his temper with excellent self-cultivation, turned to Robinson and said:
"Take the check and get $50 in cash."

"Sir... Sorry, I just misremembered, Elizabeth's contract penalty is 100 million dollars!"

Seeing that Jack was so forthright, Caliban probably thought that Jack was a fat sheep and planned to make a good fortune, so he raised the price again.

Caliban's erratic behavior annoys Jack.

In fact, 100 million US dollars is not much different from 50 US dollars to Jack, but he can't bear Caliban's temporary change of mind.

Jack sneered and stood up,

"I hope you understand what the hell you're doing!"

Faced with Jack's threat, Caliban was not to be outdone, he straightened his thin body, and laughed loudly:

"This is Mad Dog Danny's territory, don't be rich if you don't have money! That woman has a contract with me, Los Angeles is not a place for you bumpkins to be reckless."

Looking at Caliban, who was pretending and talking nonsense, Jack suddenly felt a little dispirited. He actually talked about things with such a bastard, which is really cheap!
"Mark, Robinson, let's go."

After Jack finished speaking, he turned to leave...

At this time, a purple-haired woman walked out of the inner room of the house.

As soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing this woman for the first time, Jack couldn't take his eyes away.

She should be an oriental person with a tall stature, about 180cm.With slender legs and a good face, she looks about eighteen or nineteen years old.

The most touching thing is her pure eyes, looking at Jack flickeringly, like shooting into the bottom of Jack's heart...

Robinson saw Jack's heartbeat, and he introduced at the right time:
"This lady is Elizabeth."

Elizabeth?

Didn't it come to England?
How is it an oriental?
Jack was a little puzzled, but those were not important, he turned to Mark and said:

"Sign a check for two million,"

Then he told Robinson:

"Robinson, go get the money, I'm going to take Elizabeth away!"

Jack never believed in love at first sight before, but when he saw Elizabeth, he couldn't tolerate Elizabeth staying in such a place for a moment.

Jack's arrogance aroused Caliban's greed, and he hurriedly stopped in front of Elizabeth, no longer acting like that, and said "flattering" to Jack:
"Sir, just now we were talking about Miss Elizabeth's termination fee. In fact, I have contacted her several shows. If she follows you now, I need to pay a lot of compensation. What's more, since Elizabeth came to Los Angeles , her basic necessities cost me a lot of money..."

Caliban wanted to continue nagging, but Jack couldn't listen anymore, he interrupted:

"Speak directly, how much does it cost? Caliban, I warn you, you only have one chance, you'd better say a suitable price."

"Five million! Dollars!" Caliban blurted out.

Jack wanted to laugh, but the mud couldn't support the wall, so given the chance, it was only this level!

"Mark, give it to him!"

A mere $500 million is not worth wasting saliva for Jack.

This time Caliban accepted the check and was not playing tricks.

Caliban is a smart person. He knows that someone who can give out 500 million in an instant can also take another 500 million to kill him. He has already offended the big shots, and he dare not do anything more.

After finishing Caliban, Jack took Elizabeth back to the resident of the Mutant Support Club in Los Angeles.

In a fairly tidy office, Jack and Elizabeth sat upright, while Mark and Robinson stayed outside wisely.

"Are you British?" Jack asked.

"Yes."

Elizabeth replied nervously.

Before coming to Los Angeles, Elizabeth had a happy family. Her parents moved to London in the early years and their income was not low, so Elizabeth's teenage years did not have any setbacks.

But Elizabeth has wanted to be a supermodel since she was a child. She has a proud figure and an amazing height, all of which are her capital and talent.

It's just that Elizabeth's parents didn't want their daughter to step into this chaotic business. Girls in the rebellious period always don't listen to their parents' advice. Elizabeth ran away from home and came to Los Angeles, the land of dreams, to chase her dreams.

When she first arrived in Los Angeles, she met Caliban from Spirit Butterfly Entertainment Company with a simple mind, and was deceived by the other party and signed a deceitful contract. Fortunately, she is a mutant with the mutant ability to materialize the energy in her body.

Although the ability development is not enough, Elizabeth is quite capable of playing, and temporarily kept her body in Caliban's Grass Head Company.

But Elizabeth knew nothing about the United States. She was restrained by the so-called contract and dared not leave Psychic Butterfly Entertainment.

Later, Elizabeth met Robinson by chance, and the Mutant Support Club took a fancy to her mutant ability, so she recommended this oriental beauty to Jack.

After Jack asked a word, he suddenly turned silent, which made Elizabeth very disturbed. She mustered up the courage to speak up:

"Mr. Jack, I will work hard to make money and return it to you."

Probably never encountered such a situation, Elizabeth can only give a shriveled promise.

Jack laughed, this is really a good boy, does he want money?What he wants are people!
"It's okay, Elizabeth, you can stay here at ease, and I will arrange your work."

After speaking, Jack left the office.

He could see Elizabeth's nervousness and discomfort. Mutants are usually very sensitive, and Jack didn't want to stimulate the beauty too much.
