Manhattan has once again fallen into the hands of Lodge, but it is only a city in one state in the United States, and the gains and losses of one city and one place are no longer significant compared to the whole of the United States. Reverted to the role of Liszt Lowe and returned to Stark Industries.

In just one night, no one knew that the underground forces in Manhattan had changed hands, and Pepper didn't know that he had begun to trust the people of Youga, and he actually harbored evil intentions in an attempt to subvert Stark Industries, which he cared for like a child.

"Liszt, can you come to my office?" Pepper's voice came out of the telephone and into the ears of Rocky, who was working 'seriously', he frowned slightly, what did you come to him for at this time? Is there something that matters?

"Got it, Miss Potts, please wait a moment, I still have some things to deal with." Rocky pressed the phone, and then slowly got up, and after walking out of the office, he didn't expect that the person in front of him would be Natasha? Why did she appear?

"I wonder if Miss Natalie's sudden appearance is something important?" Although he was at odds with the other party, Rocky was still very polite, after all, he didn't look up and saw him, although the other party was very dissatisfied with him, and he couldn't wait to kick her out.

Natasha was wearing an OL, holding a document in her hand, her expression was indifferent, she glanced Rocky up and down, and said, "You guy, I don't know how Miss Pepper can trust you so much, and she actually deliberately let you into her office." You know, even Stark hasn't been in her office, so it's strange to know what kind of magic you cast on her......"

"What's so strange?" Rocky waved his hand, his expression indifferent, "My relationship with Miss Potts is very normal, you don't need to make any guesses. And, don't try to make a fuss about this either. Stark wouldn't believe it. ”

Natasha's heart skipped a beat, and she really wanted to use Tony's jealousy to kick Rocky out. But now Rocky's words have blocked her thoughts. She looked at Rocky deeply and shook her head at him, "Follow me." ”

Rocky followed Natasha and slowly came to Pepper's office, and saw Natasha knock on the door, and Pepper's cold voice came from inside, "It's Natalie, right?" You brought Liszt here? Then come in now! ”

Natasha opened the office door, and Rocky walked in slowly, only to see Pepper looking at the papers with her head down.

"Sit down, I have something to discuss with you." Pepper's words made Rocky sit down in peace. Quietly looking at her.

It wasn't until halfway through the cracks that Pepper looked up from the file with a wry smile on his face, "Did you know that we Stark Industries are in trouble again?" While Hammer Industries is no longer to be feared, we now have a hidden enemy that we don't know what to do. ”

"Hidden enemies? Miss Potts, what is going on? Rocky frowned, and now it seemed that something had suddenly changed, and it seemed to be closely related to him. Otherwise, why would Pepper have such an expression?

"It happened just last night that Tony secretly formed an alliance with someone and shared the results of our Stark Industries research." Pepper smiled wryly. I couldn't help but grit my teeth, "Tony, this idiot, he didn't realize that he had sold the industry. ”

Sharing research results? Or was it the decision made by that arrogant Tony? Rocky couldn't help but wonder, who made that Tony make this decision? He was really curious. "This thing seems to be a little strange. Could it be that Mr. Stark, some handle is in someone's hand? Or rather. What is in the hands of the other party that is necessary for Stark Industries? ”

Pepper raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and her expression was thoughtful, until she was halfway through, and she nodded slightly, "Maybe it's possible, maybe we can investigate." I can get Tony on the side and find out about that ally. And you, Liszt, you have to help me. ”

Rocky nodded almost without hesitation, he also wanted to know what was going on, who was that mysterious ally, who was Tony's trusted ally more than S.H.I.E.L.D., "What do you need me to do?" Miss Potz commands! ”

Pepper's eyebrows furrowed, "Liszt, you are now the person I trust the most, and I need your help to keep Stark Industries' products and research results." If we can't keep it, then we Stark Industries will have almost no room to turn around. ”

"How does Miss Pepper plan to preserve her research? If Mr. Stark signs some kind of contract that cannot be changed, no matter how much we try to keep it, we will not be able to withstand any legal protection. Rocky told the truth, it is really difficult for Stark Industries to keep the research results now, and I don't know which tendon Tony has the wrong muscle in his head to sign such a contract with someone? What the hell is this guy getting caught? It's really curious to dig up some news.

Pepper's face was extremely ugly, and he immediately smiled wryly, "The problem is that this agreement has indeed been signed now, and I just hope that you can use your ingenuity to come up with a way to avoid the loss of research results from our Stark Industries." ”

Rocky nodded, and suddenly asked, "I don't know, what aspect of the research results that Mr. Stark signed with the other party?" ”

Pepper's face became more and more ugly, which was why she was so irritated, because Tony was actually sharing Stark Industries' weapons research with others, which was literally digging his own grave. If the other side used these weapons to attack Stark Industries, what an unspeakable disaster would it be? Pepper was worried that the other side would have bad intentions, otherwise it wouldn't have been like this.

"With all due respect, to be honest, Mr. Stark's actions are nothing short of self-destructing! Regardless of who the other party is, let's not talk about how rare these research results are. If the other party uses this as a way to seize the arms market, Stark Industries will not only be squeezed out by Hammer Industries, but will also suffer from the enemy. Secondly, if the other party has bad intentions in the first place, then it is also a question whether Stark Industries can exist after that. The immediate priority is not to preserve the results of these studies, but to find a way to get Mr. Stark to cancel the cooperation agreement with the other party, and only in this way can we keep Stark Industries from being lost. Otherwise, we will only be afraid for the rest of our lives! Rocky is by no means alarmist, but there is also a certain element of encouragement in it, and he does not want to make any mistakes at such a juncture, and only an orderly plan is the right thing.

Pepper nodded, "You're right, we might as well erase the research material from the root if we are desperate to keep it, maybe I can convince Tony, although the agreement must be followed, but as long as the parties don't agree, there will be no problem." ”

Rocky nodded, "Miss Potts has to work this, and as for me, there is nothing to do." ”

Pepper smiled and said, "Liszt, don't say that you can't do anything, it's already good that you can put forward this opinion." ”

Rocky opened his mouth, and was about to speak, when he heard Tony's cynical voice sound, "What's good?" I'll hear about it, too. ”

This guy is actually here! Rocky didn't think about it. Just when he was stunned, he saw Pepper get up with a complicated face, forced himself to make a happy expression and walked towards Tony, who suddenly appeared, the two hugged each other, and immediately separated, such a rather pretentious intimacy, so that Rocky couldn't stop raising his eyebrows, he suddenly realized that in fact, Pepper and Tony were not so close, but rather detached, which undoubtedly made him see a kind of hope. Seeing him stand up, he nodded to Tony who appeared, which was considered to have said hello, and this rather arrogant attitude made Pepper a little worried that there would be a disagreement between him and Tony.

However, Pepper was too worried, and after seeing Tony raise his eyebrows, he also nodded, and then ignored Rocky, and asked Pepper softly, "I don't know what you've been doing lately, and there has been less communication with me, but don't forget our relationship." ”

These words seem to be caring, but in fact, there are some reproaches in them, and ordinary people really can't hear them, but where is Pepper an ordinary person? She heard it immediately, and then her eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment, and only after Rocky walked out of the office did she ask softly, "Don't mention this question yet, Tony, I have something to ask you, why do you want to sign that kind of completely unequal contract with someone?" ”

When it comes to this, Tony's face is full of constipation, and there is also a fire in his belly, he is not an idiot, how could he sign such a contract to damage himself so easily? If it weren't for the fact that the other party had something he desperately desired, why would he choose it this way?

"You don't care about this matter, I am free to assert it, you just need to follow the contract."

This nonchalant attitude immediately angered Pepper, and she saw her face full of anger, "Tony, do you know what you're doing here?" You're burying the future of Stark Industries! I advise you to terminate this contract immediately, or I will take special measures if necessary, even if I use the power in my hands! ”

It's true that Pepper is Stark's girlfriend, but Stark Industries is her child, and as the mother of the child, she can't watch Stark Industries fall, even if it's her boyfriend! (To be continued.) )
