Stark had never been accused in such a tone, even if it was Pepper, the woman he trusted the most, his girlfriend. The arrogance in his heart made his face turn blue immediately, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence, "You don't know anything at all!" ”

"Yes, I don't know, because you never told me the truth! If you tell me, maybe the two of us can solve it after discussing it, but what about now? But you won't tell me anything! And then betrayed the company's hard work like this! You know, this is what your father left you! Are you going to go to your father with guilt? ”

Pepper and Stark went toe-to-toe, leaving no trace of affection for the man she loved, Stark Industries was both her home and her child, and she couldn't just watch it ruin in someone else's hands. Especially this person or Tony? Stark himself, that is even more unforgivable for her, "Tony, you have disappointed me so much! I thought you were just playing, but I didn't expect you to even get into the most basic interests of the company! Don't you ever think about the consequences? Do you know what will happen to Stark Industries in the end? ”

"Don't insult my IQ, okay? Wouldn't I know what the consequences would be if I did that? But I did it anyway! Because I know I don't have any other choice if I don't! You keep saying you want to help me, so I tell you, the best way you can help me is to stay silent! Tony walked away, his iron-blue face sending shivers down the lines of the road, clearly angered. This is an incomprehensible anger, he thought that the woman next to him would support his decision, but he didn't expect it to be like this. Pepper said she was disappointed in him, but now he wanted to say that to Pepper even more. He was disappointed. Disappointment is not understood.

After Tony left, Pepper's tears fell, but the strength of Western women caused her not to cry out in pain, but to stand quietly, with her hands around her chest, and from time to time she raised her hands to wipe away her tears. Because she didn't want to be seen, she needed to create a harmonious environment for Stark Industries. However, what she didn't expect was that this scene was watched by Rocky, who had never gone far, and he waited until Tony was far away. Shi Shiran walked into the office, and without Pepper noticing, he reached out and handed a tissue in front of her, which made her originally sad mood pause.

This stunned didn't last long, Pepper picked up a tissue, wiped her tears, and said softly: "I'm fine, thank you." ”

"A woman who was crying said she was fine. Who do you think will believe? I don't want to believe it anyway. Seriously, Miss Potts, though I understand your intentions for Stark Industries. But it was clear that the real owner did not appreciate it. ”

Rocky shrugged. If you don't fall into the trap now, when will you have to wait? This is a chance to brush up on goodwill.

Pepper shook his head slightly, obviously not agreeing with Rocky's statement, "Although Tony doesn't care about the development of industry. Although he is the real master of industry. However, the industry can have the current results, relying on the efforts of everyone. It wasn't Tony's brainchild alone. If it falls, how many people will be sad about it? And how many people will lose the jobs they depend on as a result? Do you think I'm here for Tony? No, he's not good enough for me to do. ”

Rocky was a little stunned when he heard this, he seemed to overestimate Pepper's love for Tony, and it was clear that his habitual thinking was at work. In fact, Western women are the easiest to empathize with and the most loyal group of women in the world. The premise is that the interests between the two people must be separated, otherwise, once involved, no matter how perfect the relationship is, there will be cracks.

In fact, from the very beginning when Tony replaced Pepper into the company, he had already laid the groundwork for the break between the two. Unless the trust between them is unbreakable, there will be a day when they will be separated. Because, as long as interests are involved, their opinions cannot be completely agreed, and this situation creates a disagreement between the two people, and the trust after the disagreement is gone, then they will be separated. So, it just takes one chance. Clearly, the opportunity has arisen.

"I have to say that there are not many women I admire, but Miss Potz is one. Since Mr. Stark is stubborn, we can only use our own methods to protect the interests of the company. Have you thought about it, though? If you have a bad relationship with Mr. Stark because of this, I'm afraid your relationship will ......" Rocky rubbed his chin, the corners of his mouth were slightly playful, but his appearance was serious, and it made people feel that he was caring about the other party, and I have to say that his acting skills are very exquisite.

Hearing Rocky mention this inevitable thing, Pepper's face darkened, and he immediately took a deep breath, waved his hand, and said, "Let's not mention this for the time being, let's get through the difficulties!" If it really comes to that...... Then I can only choose to leave ......."

Even if it is a thousand reluctances and reluctances, but in the end, we still have to face it, after all, this is an inevitable result. She had to be mentally prepared before that, and then calmly accept the last possibility, and then leave calmly.

But will Pepper be able to leave in stride? Rocky wouldn't let her go, because after the annexation of Stark Industries, he needed someone to manage it, and he could barely think of anyone other than Pepper. This kind of managerial talent is very rare, and it is not possible for ordinary people to be able to take care of the huge Stark industry in an orderly manner.

"Miss Potts, since you have decided, I have nothing to say. Anyway, what do you want me to do, just say hello. I, Liszt, will certainly help you. "At this time, if you don't choose to stand by the other party's side without hesitation, then when to choose? Now Pepper seems to be strong, but his heart is undoubtedly fragile, Rocky, as a corner of the wall, deeply understands what it means to take advantage of the void, and when everything is a foregone conclusion, he is not afraid of Pepper escaping from his palm.

Sure enough, Pepper was very touched by Rocky's unhesitating support, "Thank you, Liszt, I'm glad you're still standing by my side." But, have you ever thought that if your affair is discovered, you will also lose your job......"

Looking at Pepper's worried look, Rocky smiled softly, with a casual look, "Miss Potts, for me, maybe Stark Industries is just a station in my life. And I don't believe I can't find the next place with my talent. Miss Potts is someone I admire a lot, and I think it's worth it to be able to help someone I admire. ”

Hearing this, Pepper couldn't help but blush, and the subtext of appreciation can be called liking to a certain extent. She couldn't help but reject Rocky's outspokenness in some respects, but rather a please. And this euphoria does not mean that she has a crush on Rocky, but because of her feminine vanity. There is no woman who does not like to be praised, and no woman will reject the liking of others for herself, especially this person she does not hate, and even has a good impression.

"Seriously, Liszt, I'm feeling sorry for Natalie right now. You're a good man, but it's a pity that she doesn't have this blessing. Pepper sighed and brought up a name that Rocky didn't really want to hear, though it was a compliment in disguise.

"Miss Potts, I have a personal choice, and I can't control Miss Natalie's will, and she is reluctant to come into my life. So, ah, it is destined to be impossible between us. Don't worry about it. Rocky waved his hand, and suddenly lowered his voice, "Miss Potts, I think if we want to find out why, we have to look for the reason in Mr. Stark. If you don't mind, I'll try to track him down and figure out who the other person is. ”

"Tracking?" Pepper was a little stunned, she subconsciously felt that this method was very inappropriate, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was the only way to figure out who Tony was working with. Once the target of the agreement is locked, then they have the opportunity to negotiate with the other party, or take some unconventional means. Although she is a businessman, she is not a pedantic businessman, she knows more than more people about some dark places in the business world, and there are many things related to underground forces. And the so-called unconventional means are things that need someone to stand up for her and clean them up, and she is unwilling to let them exist.

So, don't think that Pepper is very kind, people who can be in high positions are never good people. But for such a person, Rocky is not rejected, after all, he has investigated the other party before, knows everything about the other party, and understands that she has not actually done anything too excessive, so in a sense, she is actually a very principled person.

"Well, Liszt, I think now I'm afraid it's only as you want. But you have to be careful not to let Tony find out about you, or else our plan will die before it happens. Pepper carefully advised, and finally agreed with Rocky, though she didn't like it very much, because it was contrary to her own principles in some way. (To be continued.) )
