Amanda's father looked at the person who threw him; it was a tall and very muscular man.
"Doctor, are you alright?" Clark asked as he ca in to check on Jack, and seeing the commotion, he was concerned and threw the man who was going to do sothing to the doctor.
"Yes, I am fine. Can you please send Miss Amanda out as well, as I am preparing to go visit one of my establishnts?" Jack said as he looked at the father and daughter duo with disgust.
"Sure, sir," Clark said, as he looked at everyone present.
As he was about to take a step, cops ca in the suite; the atmosphere changed because they were cops, and they have legal rights.
"Sir, we've received a complaint that a minor has been kidnapped," a cop said while looking at Jack.
"Well, kidnapped? Did I kidnap you, Amanda?" Jack asked, using a little bit of his Emperor's Aura as he wanted the truth.
"N... No, he didn't kidnap ; he saved from getting drunk and let sleep here safely." Amanda spoke the truth as she was getting pressured by Jack.
"Sir, as the girl is a minor, we have to verify sothing. Are you sixteen like your father has said?" The lady cop ca in front of Amanda and asked sweetly.
"No, I am eighteen," Amanda said while looking at her father, who looked confused.
"I turned eighteen today," Amanda said as she looked at her father hatefully.
Amanda's father appeared visibly guilty, his expression faltering as he struggled to rember the exact age of his daughter.
"Alright, so you were seventeen when you entered this room?" the lady officer asked, planning to verify it later. She knew she couldn't declare soone guilty based solely on one side of the story.
"No, I was still eighteen at that ti," Amanda said, because she t Jack just before midnight.
"Alright, case solved." The lady officer stood up and apologized to Jack for making this commotion.
"Don't worry about it; it's your duty," Jack said with a dismissive wave of his hand, clearly unbothered.
After the cop's left, Amanda's father and Amanda were in an awkward position, as Amanda didn't want to go with her father, and Jack wanted them to leave.
"Just decide yourself until I co back," as the situation was awkward. Jack just locked his room and went outside with Clark and gave them the living room to discuss.
"Clark, thank you once again for saving ," Jack said, as he could have easily saved himself, but Clark's reaction made him very happy.
"Doctor, it's my duty to protect you," Clark said. He was a humble man.
"Clark, do you know there are inhuman people on this earth? For example, Power Man, "Jack, said as he and Clark walked on the street of New York.
"I know. My father was one. I believed he was an alien until I saw Power Man. My father could fly around," Clark said while scratching his head and smiling dumbly.
"Yeah, so I want you to beco one just like them. How about it?" Jack asked; he was not baiting Clark or anything because Jack can get a lot of person, and he's giving Clark a chance.
"I would love that. My small daughter would be so happy," Clark said as he smiled.
"So, where do I go to? For so cash?" Jack asked as he walked on the street; he rembered he doesn't have anything on him.
"I can loan you so if you want," Clark said smilingly.
"No, I have euros in my account; let's exchange them here," Jack pointed at the World Currency Exchange.
"Alright."
As Jack entered the building, in his suite the situation was awkward, as Amanda's father can't help but bla himself for the situation that happened today.
"Baby, I am sorry. Let's go ho, then we can decide whatever you want," Amanda's father said.
"N...no, I am not going back there, in that Iron Village. It's pathetic," Amanda said, as she was angry at her father.
"Alright, let buy a house here. Will that be alright?" Amanda's father said, as she had been complaining about that old town villa for a while now.
"N... no, I want sothing else now," Amanda said, her voice trembling with excitent. It was clear she had sothing specific in mind, and nothing would stop her from getting it.
Her father recognized that quivering tone. When Amanda's voice wavered like that, it ant one thing: her request was non-negotiable. If denied, she would refuse to talk to him entirely.
"What is it?" Amanda's father asked.
"Jack," Amanda said with a smile.
"He's a person; I can't buy him for you." Mr. Smith was imdiately enraged, but he rembered that getting angry with his daughter was not the best thing he could do, so he cald down.
"I know; I don't care. Talk to him, invite him to our town, or whatever—just give him the money," Amanda said firmly. It was all part of her strategy. As the daughter of a billionaire, she was accustod to having her every desire fulfilled without question.
"I don't think he lacks money," Mr. Smith said. Just then, the suite's door, left open after Jack had left, swung wider as a worried-looking man rushed inside.
"Where's my son-in-law?" Heinrich asked as he looked at the father and daughter duo with squinting eyes.
"Who are you?" Mr. Smith stood up with a shocked expression because the person that just entered was holding a gun, and the person looked angry.
"I am Heinrich. I heard my son-in-law got into trouble." I am going to kill that bastard who attacked my son-in-law," Heinrich said as he looked around the suite with a gun in hand.
"Why is this room locked? Open it," Heinrich demanded, pointing his gun at Mr. Smith.
Mr. Smith raised his hands, visibly shaken and unsure of what was happening.
"I don't have the keys," Mr. Smith said as he slowly got in front of his daughter; his intentions were to protect her.
"You're lying," Heinrich said.
