Chapter 260

Because Captain America's girlfriend's surname was Carter.

Sharon didn't deny it and nodded very frankly: "Yes, Peggy Carter is my aunt, and I am her niece."

Her surname being Carter wasn't something shameful; on the contrary, it was something she was very proud of.

Gwen's expression dawned on her.

"Then you came here today..."

"To find Hawk to understand something."

"Alright, then you two talk, I'll go to the backyard first."

Hearing this, Gwen smiled slightly, didn't stay here to disturb their conversation, kissed Hawk on the side, and walked towards the backyard.

She was preparing to tinker with her backyard garden again.

The past was the past.

Now is now.

Before, she helped Hawk decorate the backyard as a girlfriend, but now she was already Hawk's fiancée.

Let's put it this way.

When she was showing off the engagement ring she could wear out to her mom Helen in the bedroom just now, she stood behind the master bedroom window and looked at the backyard below that she had previously felt very satisfied with, but the more she looked, the more she felt it didn't look very good.

So she planned to reorganize it.

Hawk turned his head to look at Gwen, who was walking to the backyard, then turned back, looked at Sharon, who had sat down on the sofa again, and said with a smile: "I think I don't need to explain."

Sharon nodded, then gave a wry smile and looked at Hawk: "But Hawk, that stunt of yours last night really scared a lot of people."

This was because the Five Greats' current focus was on Wakanda.

And from a certain perspective, it was Hawk who helped the Five Greats discover the true face of Wakanda, which had been secretly developing while receiving UN relief food.

The most important point.

S. H. I. E. L. D. Deputy Director and Commander Maria Hill vouched for Hawk at the Security Council meeting related to Hawk.

Councilman Alexander Pierce also supported Maria Hill.

Hawk eats soft, not hard.

The last one who tried to stuff something hard to Hawk was Thaddeus Ross.

The grass on his grave has already grown out.

And Maria Hill.

It was precisely because Maria Hill didn't choose a tough attitude, but approached Hawk with a relatively equal and understanding attitude, that Hawk helped Hill break Wakanda's barrier.

UN scientists had already verified that if this barrier hadn't been broken with Hawk's help, unless Wakanda voluntarily lifted the barrier, they wouldn't be able to break it within ten years without using high-yield nuclear bombs.

So...

Currently, the Five Greats' attitude towards Hawk was friendly, and they had accepted the advice put forward by Maria Hill. It was precisely because of this that since Hawk returned from Africa, no one had disturbed him for all these days, even when he was in Lunduncheng.

But Hawk flying over the earth without warning yesterday still gave them a jump.

This was also why S. H. I. E. L. D. couldn't wait to have Sharon urgently come to Hawk's side while she was still on vacation.

Sharon now also knew the reason.

The diamond meteorite that NASA discovered on the moon, no surprise, no, Hawk running to the moon last night was 100% for that diamond meteorite.

Sharon had already imagined the expressions that would appear on the faces of those big shots when she went back and reported this reason later.

It must be very exciting.

Sharon thought in her heart.

Hawk smiled, looked at Sharon, and answered the same as the previous answer: "I have no interest in changing the earth, so, as long as they don't come to find trouble for me, I won't go to find trouble for them."

This was the truth.

100% the truth.

After all, even without relying on the Sacred Cloth, he could now cross the starry sky. The only reason he was still on Earth right now was one.

His home was here.

Niuyuecheng was even more his comfort zone; his sister was here, and his fiancée was also here.

Hearing Hawk's answer, Sharon nodded again.

"I will take these words back."

"Thank you."

"Then I will take my leave."

Sharon then rose from the sofa, looked at the time on her watch, and gave a wry smile: "I still have to go to the airport to pick up Lei Shen and his girlfriend later."

Once again, all of S. H. I. E. L. D.'s codenamed agents were transferred to Africa's Wakanda to fight wild monsters.

And so.

The only one who could be linked to Lei Shen was her; if asked, it's because she is Peggy Carter's niece, Peggy Carter was Captain America's former lover, and Captain America and Lei Shen had fought side by side.

Sharon was very curious about how this relationship was pulled together, but the commander had already decided, and she couldn't resist, so she could only choose to accept.

Hawk also rose from the sofa, preparing to see Sharon out, when he heard that Sharon still had to go to the airport to pick up Lei Shen, thought of one thing, and laughed out loud: "Then you'll have your hands full in the future."

Sharon looked at Hawk curiously.

Hawk didn't hide it either, treating it as notifying S. H. I. E. L. D. in advance, to save S. H. I. E. L. D. from coming to the door every day in the future.

At that time, he would be annoyed, and S. H. I. E. L. D. would also be annoyed.

So he told Sharon about his appointment to fight Lei Shen in Lunduncheng, Lei Shen settling on Earth from now on, and the two of them probably often going to the universe to fight in the future.

The expression on Sharon's face gradually became exciting.

Very exciting.

Finally.

After listening to Hawk's notification, Sharon nodded: "Okay, I will also report this matter."

Hawk smiled slightly.

In the backyard, Gwen, having just seen her fiancée rise from the sofa and the guest who had come to the house, also walked back in, and after Sharon said goodbye to her, she sent Sharon to the door.

After a while.

Gwen, who had officially regarded herself as the lady of the house, stood at the door, watching Sharon drive away from Palm Street, then closed the door, turned back to the living room, looked at Hawk, and talked about the interesting story of sharing the six-carat engagement ring with her mom Helen upstairs just now.

"Did you give Howard a piece of raw diamond?"

"Hmm."

The moment Hawk pushed open the door of the hell tavern, Hawk in reality also disappeared abruptly in Gwen's line of sight.

Gwen's pretty face was serious, trying hard not to laugh out loud.

Hawk met Gwen's eyes, which were holding back laughter, and laughed silently.

Sure enough.

Regardless of East or West, mothers are actually the same.

However, Hawk didn't say he gave Helen a diamond.

Although he had one; after all, when he ran to the moon last night, he took all the diamond meteorites in that crater back.

But...

He had them, but he couldn't give them to Helen.

It's not that he didn't want to, but he couldn't.

A future son-in-law giving a future mother-in-law a diamond?

Listen.

Is this appropriate?

This is inappropriate; even if he gave the diamond to Gwen and let Gwen give it to Helen, this is also quite inappropriate.

Because the impression of diamonds has been solidified by capital.

Diamonds represent love.

The bigger the diamond, the deeper the love, so Helen's diamond can only be given by George.

Right.

George.

Hawk's heart stirred, and he looked at Gwen.

"Has George's headache eased?"

"Mom said, Dad's head hurts even more."

"..."

Poor George.

Still the same saying.

It's inappropriate for him to give Helen a diamond; similarly, it's also inappropriate to give George a diamond.

So Hawk felt that the only thing he could do right now was to silently mourn for his future... no, for his future father-in-law in his heart.

Oh, right.

And Peter.

Gwen didn't just share the joy of being proposed to with her mom Helen; her good friend Mary was naturally also on the list of people to share with.

And so, after knowing that Hawk had proposed to Gwen, Mary first let out a series of screams, and then immediately shouted in the group for Hawk to treat them.

Hawk agreed.

Then...

After Mary saw the six-carat purple-red diamond engagement ring on the ring finger of Gwen's left hand, she was immediately envious to the point of no return. Although she didn't show anything, her eyes would glance at Peter, who was sitting on the side, from time to time.

Peter was on pins and needles, and the hair under his spider-sense was exploding at a rate of once every ten seconds.

After dinner.

Gwen and Mary walked in front, arm in arm.

Hawk and Peter followed behind as usual.

He took a round object the size of a fist wrapped in newspaper out of his pocket and threw it directly to Peter.

"Here."

"What is th..."

Peter subconsciously took it, opened it to look, and then, looking at the wrapped object, hurriedly rolled up the newspaper, trying to return it to Hawk.

"No, I can't take this, this is too valuable."

"This is just a broken rock."

Hawk looked at Peter, who was trying to return the object to him, and said with a smile: "You are my friend, do you think the friendship between us two is not worth a broken rock?"

Peter shook his head.

"Of course not."

"Then accept it!"

Hawk made the final decision, then put his arm around Peter's shoulder, and while walking towards the restaurant entrance, said: "Instead of worrying about this broken rock being expensive, you'd better worry about the cost of polishing this broken rock."

After all, what he gave was raw stone.

Not a finished product.
