Since Todd began to contact the secret work, his heart seems to have awakened some strange proclivities, and prying around is one of the worst, of course, Ross does not agree with this, but when it comes to the people around him, he is inevitably a little curious, and after sending the toad away, he quietly left for the circular corridor on the second floor of the hall.

It was work time, most of the staff were busy, only the group of young people from Xavier College were idle, standing together by the floor-to-ceiling windows, holding large drinks and popcorn, as if watching a circus show.

When Ross came nearby, Pepper was having a headache dealing with harassment from her former employer.

“Sorry, Tony, I’ve been busy lately, and I think Miss Evercht is your best choice.”

Ivocht is the surname of the female reporter Christine, and after creating a misunderstanding, this young lady successfully angrily left Pepper and turned around and climbed the Stark tree. According to a recent grapevine from Peter, Ross heard that she is now playing the role of the former Pepper, serving as Tony’s personal assistant, and by the way, assisting the modern Leonardo da Vinci with some annoying corporate affairs, and seeing that she is about to develop into a strong woman.

Hearing Pepper mention the matter of the current secretary, Iron Man was inevitably a little embarrassed, and he quickly used a cough to cover up the unnaturalness in his heart.

“It was a misunderstanding, I must have been stunned by Obadai. The only person I can’t live without is you, it’s my little pepper, I’m incomplete without you, I can’t even remember the social security number! If you don’t like it, I can terminate the contract with Christine now, and I am willing to pay ten times the termination fee, as long as you promise to come back. ”

“Don’t be!” Pepper hurriedly stopped him.

“Tony, things have passed, my life is full and happy now, many people need me…”

“I need you too!” Tony immediately interrupted her thrust.

“I’m Tony Stark, I made those Iron Men, I patrol the skies over the city and occasionally play the role of a savior, but why can’t I sleep all night because I have a super good girlfriend who was snatched by someone else, and now I’m going to take her back!”

Tony waved his arm excitedly, and a large bouquet of red roses | petals fluttered in the wind, but as Pepper said, everything was over. Pepper did not cherish it when he was around before, but now his enthusiasm embarrassed the former secretary, Pepper knew that there were some good deeds behind him who were peeping, and there were even some paparazzi reporters who were in and out not far away and picked up the camera to shoot openly, but she was unwilling to hurt Tony’s feelings by refusing to strictly refuse in front of others, so she was quite embarrassed for a while.

Her distress could also be felt in Ross.

In fact, the group of gossipy mutant girls | are also whispering next to him, and the girls such as the phantom cat Katie and the little naughty Mary still look at him with strange eyes from time to time, as if they are staging a bloody third-rate soap opera in front of them, and the three Ross are the starring actors in this three-| romance drama.

“Nasty guy.” Ross thought depressedly in his heart, and he didn’t know who he was referring to.

He looked around casually for a while, and when he found that a mutant who was good at manipulating insects was also watching nearby, his eyes immediately lit up.

While no one was paying attention, Ross secretly copied the genetically modified spider and threw it on the lawn outside.

“Do me a favor.”

Pulling the mutant by the hand, he quietly shoved a Franklin into the palm of the other.

Stark didn’t notice what was happening behind him, and he was still trying to persuade Pepper to return to him.

“Come back, Pepper, I need you so much!”

“I know, my explanation of Christine is a bit redundant, it’s a stupid thing, maybe the dumbest thing I’ve ever done in my life.”

“I admit that my life used to be a bit chaotic, and the media concocted rumors about me every day to solicit business, but you know I’m not that kind of guy.”

“Well, my personality is not perfect and has a negative impact on society, but I am to you… Yes!! ”

As he was gushing persuasion, suddenly an electric shock-like feeling came from behind him.

“What the hell is this! A cat? ”

He immediately jumped up and backhanded a furry creature from behind his hip |.

It was a cave spider, four or five inches in size, with a colorful body covered with dark red fuzz and eight slowly flapping claws.

Throwing the creature back to the ground as if burned by flames, the terrified Tony took a few steps back and shouted, it was this thing that had just stung him.

“Sorry, this may have run out of the lab, let the doctor take a look.”

Pepper quickly apologized and called the director of the laboratory’s biological research group.

Panicked, Tony recognized it as a red rose spider native to the Chilean desert, a docile spider that belongs to a type of bird catcher and is kept as a chong. Its toxicity is very weak, and its aggression is not strong, probably I was too emotional just now and accidentally stepped on it, and then it climbed on the body and bit it.

After this incident, Mr. Stark felt a great loss of face, and the originally brewing emotions disappeared, so he did not accept Pepper’s kindness, hurriedly dropped a few words and left.

Looking at the embarrassed figure of his former employer, Pepper shook his head and turned to look back.

The good deeds dispersed, and Pepper did not find the familiar face in the crowd, but based on what she knew about someone, Peppermin felt that this was not an accident |.

In | elevator all the way up, and soon she was in Ross’s office.

The door didn’t close, and Pepper pushed it straight in.

“Ross?”

As she was shouting, a red rose suddenly appeared from the side.

Pepper was startled and reached out to cover the plump | Xiong.

Then the owner of the place appeared to her.

“I admit that my personality is not perfect and has a negative impact on society, but I am absolutely sincere with you, can I accept my apologies?”

Ross said in a mock of Stark’s tone, and Pepper was angry and amused, reaching out and punching him hard before taking the flower.

After the tentacles, she found that it was a paper flower folded from document paper, and Ross folded the square document to make a pentagon with | petals, although it was folded in a hurry, it looked quite delicate, and happened to use the color of the document itself, which at first glance was no different from the real flower.

The outside world often compares him to Stark, but Tony is more accustomed to buying directly with money and is rarely willing to do the work for others himself.

Holding this paper flower, Pepper’s heart was slightly touched.

Then she quickly reminded herself that this employer was essentially no different from the previous one, and they were both very greedy guys.

“Did you do it just now, I mean the spider?”

Looking down to sniff the paper roses, Pepper glanced at Ross.

“Why didn’t the red rose (spider) take a fancy to the red rose?” Ross wants to deny.

Staring at him with a smile, Pepper leaned against the door with her arms folded, meaning to turn away if she didn’t answer correctly.

“Well, I did it.” Ross could only raise his hand in surrender.

“I’m afraid Tony has abducted my people, and I can’t do without you.”

“Yes?” Pepper was noncommittal.

“I see you can do business, you sent a Russian to Central Asia, and now the customer over there is urging the shipment again, this time we also use Watsons Pharmaceutical’s box to ship?”

“I want to state that General Omar and I have nothing to do with it, they are the ghosts of Watsonton Pharmaceutical, they are illegally trading in | disarmament in order to make huge profits and independence, and I have always firmly resisted this kind of thing.”

Ross retorted seriously, his innocent look that made Pepper want to punch him again.

For her, the new employer is an uncertain guy, with many secrets in private, but unreservedly open to her, but the more she knows, the more unfathomable she feels. Sometimes she even suspected that Ross had multiple personalities, sometimes she was an extremely deep and sophisticated man, sometimes she became a lively and jumpy boy, and various faces were intertwined and changed, so that she did not know how to master it.

Compared to this headache guy, business matters are quite simple.

The downfall of Watsonton Pharmaceuticals had a double gain for the laboratory, one of which was of course the reduction of external pressure and the elimination of a strong competitor; Another advantage is that the prepared Ross can finally turn the attention of the outside world to the pharmaceutical giants, let them bear the suspicion of the military and secret services, and privately continue to do business in the name of the Watsonton remnant.

After Malik’s death, the forces behind him could not control the situation, other parties began to move, and the federal government announced that it would launch a deep investigation into Watsons Pharmaceuticals |. In addition to the illegal experiments involving mutants, another reason for the investigation was that spy satellites found some cryogenic boxes with the Watsonton logo at Omar’s guard station.

Those boxes were exactly what Ross had prepared, obtained from within Watsons by various means, and then loaded with cutting-edge laboratory agents and shipped to Central Asia for Omar to use.

In this way, Watsonton II, who was murdered by Malik, was once again made a scapegoat, this time without even a chance to defend himself, although the results of the investigation have not yet been drawn, but many people tend to be Watsonton for spreading the dangerous results to Central Asia.

Pepper was well aware of this, but she didn’t dislike it, just treated it as a common competitive tactic, illegal but not unacceptable.

When she used to work for Stark, Tony and Obadi were not saints of good character, otherwise the outside world would not have given the playboy the nickname “Merchant of Death”, which was not all the credit of Obadi. So as long as Ross does not break the limit, she will have no objection, not to mention from the current situation, because Ross will never fall more people than Stark, and his contribution to society will only be greater than Stark.

“Don’t always talk about business, money can be the shell of many things, but not the fruit of it, now it’s time to relax and let’s dance.” Ross proposed enthusiastically, and then melodious music sounded in the office.

Pepper awkwardly turned with Ross’s footsteps, her tall body passively cooperating with his movements.

Gradually, her body relaxed, intoxicated with the melody of music, and her long hair hanging down like a waterfall behind her head was like a beautiful and elegant tulip, blooming quietly in Ross’s arms.
