Falui Lysander was hesitant.
If he rejected Chen Zhao now, it would mean that they were going to fall out.
It would also mean that he would have to go against Chen Zhao in court.
Just then, Falui Lysander recalled the contents of the three-party contract.
The compensation for breach of contract was fifteen times the amount of the investment.
The investment was twenty million. This meant that if he lost in court, he would have to pay three hundred million.
He couldn't even pay three million, let alone three hundred million.
In the end, his rationality won over his hesitation.
Going against a rich person in court was a very unwise decision.
Plus, he'd violated the contract first.
He was digging his own grave.
In America, if he faced such a huge compensation.
Then it was really possible that his family would break up and he would be deserted.
The next day, Falui Lysander obediently brought the edited sample of the second episode to Chen Zhao's house.
When he saw the manor beside Mirror Lake, Falui Lysander truly felt what it meant to be rich.
The mansions he'd seen in the past were like grass sheds in the countryside compared to Mirror Lake Manor.
Falui Lysander was also a rich person.
But at the moment, he realized that he was at least a Pacific Ocean away from the truly rich.
If he knew that Chen Zhao's income for one day was equivalent to half of his lifetime's worth, who knew what he would think?
The most popular saying now was, "Don't use your annual income to challenge my pocket money."
Falui Lysander wasn't just shocked. He was also afraid.
When rich people reached a certain level, they'd start playing politics.
Politics was a dangerous thing in a society where money reigned supreme.
Then, Falui Lysander entered the manor.
This place really opened his eyes.
The front yard was already bigger than the total area of his house.
There was also a huge grassland in the backyard and the forest beside it. They were also part of the manor.
In feng shui terms, it would be mountains and rivers, the east wind welcomed and sent, bringing in wealth and treasures, the green dragon lay down, and the wind and rain adjusted.
It wasn't a dragon's vein, but it was still a great place with good feng shui.
Of course, Falui Lysander didn't know feng shui, but he knew that all these things added together would be extremely expensive in Los Angeles, where every inch of land was expensive.
When Falui Lysander saw Chen Zhao, Chen Zhao didn't give him a good look.
Chen Zhao knew Falui Lysander's request and his starting point.
However, Chen Zhao didn't like it when people thought they were right.
Especially when she ignored his request.
This was the dissatisfaction of a consumer towards all the good intentions.
"Please take a seat, Mr. Faruj."
Chen Zhao took the sample and put it in the player.
Faluy Lysander looked a little uneasy as he watched the broadcast content that he had personally reviewed.
In fact, the sample that was being played this time was edited by him and his team last night.
He also added some things, which were what Chen Zhao had requested before the first episode was aired.
Actually, the second episode was supposed to be analyzed.
However, he would still hold back.
But because of Chen Zhao's forceful request and attitude, she couldn't help but cry.
Still, he added more content to the story.
While watching, Chen Zhao kept his face covered.
When the video ended, Chen Zhao's expression softened.
Chen Zhao finally smiled. "Mr. Falui, I'm very satisfied with the content of the second episode. I'm sorry for my attitude before."
"Mr. Chen, you must be joking. You're my boss now. You have the right to request anything from me. I should be the one apologizing."
No one knew what Falui Lysander was thinking.
However, at least he gave in on the surface.
Going against Chen Zhao head-on wouldn't do him any good.
Chen Zhao didn't care if Falui realized his mistake or not.
Chen Zhao would only have a short interaction with Falui anyway.
After the filming of the show, she and he would be people from two different worlds.
As long as Falui could give him what he needed and the result he wanted, it would be fine.
The first episode had already been aired. No matter how angry Chen Zhao was, it wouldn't change anything.
Shedding all pretense of cordiality with Faluy Lysander would allow him to vent some of his anger.
However, it wouldn't change the situation at all.
Moreover, his investment and time would be wasted.
So, Chen Zhao decided to forgive Falui Lysander this time.
"Mr. Chen, I have a question. Is it convenient for you to answer it?"
"What is it? I can't guarantee that I can answer it. "
"Mr. Chen, I think you're a rational person. You should know that the content I arranged is the best choice. Why do you have to solve the mystery of ancient Greece?"
"I said that I'm not investing in this show for profit. You can treat it as interest if you accept this explanation. Of course, if you don't, I won't give you another answer."
This answer clearly wasn't the real reason.
Of course, Falui Lysander wasn't satisfied.
Chen Zhao had pretty much said, "I'm just finding an excuse to brush you off."
It didn't matter if you accepted it or not.
"Fine," Falui Lysander replied helplessly.
Falui Lysander didn't stay for long. He found an excuse and left.
Chen Zhao didn't plan on asking Falui Lysander to stay for lunch either.
Portia, Zefra, and Naveka Lina came one after another.
Chen Zhao left the kids to his three assistants.
Then, he went out.
He'd been back for more than two weeks. Chen Zhao had always left Xiao He with Ethan.
Before bringing her out, Chen Zhao had said that she wouldn't have anything to do with him anymore.
But she was still half on his side.
As long as it was within his power, he would help her if he could.
West had said that he wanted to interact with her.
But then, he said that he would let her live peacefully.
There was no need to drag her into trouble.
When Chen Zhao arrived at Ethan's motel, he saw Xiao He sitting on the stairs in a daze.
"Hey … did Ethan kick you out?" Chen Zhao teased.
Of course, Chen Zhao believed that Ethan wouldn't do that.
Ethan valued money as much as his life, but he still had morals.
Xiao He raised her head and looked at Chen Zhao.
"Mr. Chen, how come you're here?" Xiao He looked at Chen Zhao listlessly.
She'd gotten over her initial unfamiliarity with going abroad.
She was basically familiar with the environment and had gone out with Li Qing a few times.
Actually, she didn't have much interest in LA.
LA was an international metropolis, but it wasn't much better than Shanghai.
Right now, she was just lacking in spoken English, but basic communication was fine.
"I'm here to see an old friend and see if you've been sold."
