"The head of the house is in the master's conference room on the second floor, and he hasn't left the manor for the past few days." The maid replied respectfully.

When Lucy heard this, she couldn't help laughing, and pouted with girlish nature: "That war maniac didn't go out with Logan and them. ”

"But in this way, it would be great to share the world of the two."

She was about to step upstairs, and as if she suddenly remembered something, she turned around showing her figure and dress in place, and asked the maid, "Am I okay with what I am wearing today?" ”

The two maids nodded quickly, and after a few words of praise, they seemed to know what Lucy cared about, and added: "The head of the house will definitely like it when he sees it." ”

"That's good." Lucy patted her tall chest with her slender hand, and let out a sigh of relief with a slight apprehension.

Her already perfect and delicate face is now wearing light makeup and a professional suit, which looks a little less girlish and more intellectually mature.

"Then I'll go to the second floor, and I'll bring some red wine and snacks later." Lucy commanded, and before the maid could reply, she trotted upstairs with her skirt in hand.

On the second floor of the estate, the master's meeting room.

Lucy knocked on the wooden door, and a calm and magnetic male voice came from inside, "Come in." ”

Quickly opening the wooden door, Lucy stepped into the room, her beautiful eyes following the light to the huge room, and her eyes fell on the blonde young man in a casual suit.

He stood on the edge of the retro window with his back to the door, his tall and muscular physique, obscuring the light of most of the window, leaving a tall and cold back to those who came in.

"Kyle." Lucy whispered lovingly, trotted forward, and wrapped her arms around the young man's sturdy waist, her chest completely resting on his broad back.

"Lucy, you're back." Kyle whispered, grabbing the girl's hand with his backhand and holding it in his palm.

"If I don't go back here, where else can I go back?" Lucy burst out laughing, spit out her pink tongue mischievously, and whispered: "If it weren't for you who insisted that I manage the Carl family's finances, I wouldn't have to go to New York to study economic management." ”

"How's it going?" Kyle asked with rare interest.

"Compared to the medical courses I studied before, it was not very difficult to learn, and during my tenure at Stark Industries, many colleagues took care of me and taught me professional knowledge." Lucy said softly.

"There are still a lot of good people." Kyle chuckled and shrugged.

It's no wonder that Howard has retired to the background as a full-time researcher, but he is still the boss of the industry, and Lucy was recommended by Howard to take a temporary position in Stark Industries......

Vibranium as hard as a relation.

"Stark Industries can come out on its own and let it maintain independent operations, and now the other businesses of the Carl family have not expanded, and the financial income and expenditure are not much, it is still easy to manage." Lucy was full of confidence.

"That's good, I'll be relieved in the future......" Kyle squinted his eyes and looked at the bright scenery of the window, and his words suddenly stopped, and he didn't say any more.

"Rest assured what?" Lucy looked up suspiciously, asking.

"Nothing." Kyle seems to want to cover up this topic, but the more he tries to cover it up, the more Lucy is keenly aware that something is wrong.

"It's not nothing, you're a little abnormal today. Ah, Kyle, your hand! Lucy was taken aback, and her slender hand clenched Kyle's big hand. Only then did he realize that his hands were a little cold, far from the warmth of the stove before.

"Kyle, you're hiding it from me, what the hell is going on?"

Under Lucy's anxious repeated questioning, Kyle sighed slightly, took a deep breath ready, and turned to face Lucy with his own face.

"Your hair ......" Lucy's eyes widened and trembled at the incredible sight, reaching out to touch Kyle's temples, where the blonde hair had turned silvery-white.

Yes. The original dazzling blonde hair, like the sun turning into solid, the sideburns naturally turned silvery-white, as if the vitality of youth had faded.

"Lucy, go to the couch and I'll tell you everything." Kyle said calmly.

When he wakes up in the morning and finds that his hair has turned silvery gray, he knows that there is no way to hide it from the members of the Carl family, especially Lucy.

Although he was able to barely cover up the past with the camouflage effect of venom, his physical condition was getting worse and worse, and now there was no need for that.

It's time to tell the Carl family about his body's genetic mutations and his plans to leave Earth.

Kyle wiped tears from Lucy's eyes, hugged the girl's trembling body, and sat on the couch in the conference room with her.

"This matter starts with Nisan Tokyo......

Kyle didn't hide it anymore, and told Lucy about his body's genetic mutations and corresponding future plans.

"The genetic mutation is directly life-threatening, and there are about six months to go, but my time is running out to stay on Earth, and I guess in a month, I will ...... Leave Earth and go to the universe! ”

After Kyle finished speaking, Lucy in his arms was already crying, tears falling like pearls, wetting his clothes.

"Why hide such an important matter from us?" Lucy's chest rose and fell rapidly, and she whimpered angrily.

"Because I don't want you to know that the seemingly omnipotent head of the family has become a terminally ill genetic patient." Kyle said with a smile.

Some time ago, once the crisis of his body was announced, it was estimated that the Karl family would not be able to get on the right track so quickly.

Focusing too much on gains and losses is a habit that Kyle can't change.

Lucy wiped the tears from her face, stared at Kyle with slightly red eyes, and asked urgently, "If you leave the earth and go to the universe, are you sure you can find a way to heal yourself?" ”

"I can't say, the universe is too big, there are too many crises, and this road may be life-threatening."

Kyle smiled bitterly and expressed his concerns, clenched his fists, and said with firm eyes: "I am afraid of death, so I will definitely fight until the last moment, and I will never die so easily!" ”

Lucy burst into tears, thought for a moment, and asked, "If you are alive and healed, how long will it take to come back?" ”

"I don't know. Maybe ten years, fifty years, even a hundred years. ”

Kyle said, seeing Lucy's eyes darken, he added, "But no matter what, as long as I'm alive, then I'll definitely come back!" ”

"I believe in you." Lucy bowed her head, her face was more serious than ever, and she looked at Kyle solemnly, "After you leave, I will wait here for you to come back." ”

"No matter if it's fifty years or a hundred years, I'll wait until I die!"

The girl said firmly.
