Chapter 413

~2 min read 367 words

"Stark Industries only does high-tech industries like military, artificial intelligence, aerospace, and energy. Oh right, we don't do military anymore."

"But regardless, we don't do performing arts." Pepper rolled her eyes at Tony upon hearing this: "These things have already been arranged. You just need to read from the press release."

"What I mean is, don't you think this is a bit fake?"

Tony Stark seemed to be looking for a reason: "Filming a movie?"

"At the time, everyone on the whole street saw it."

"Those two behemoths, and me and Mr. Superman."

"The facilities on the road were all destroyed."

"Those people aren't stupid, how could they believe this explanation?"

"Didn't Colonel Rhodes say, just read from the script."

Pepper responded: "The situation will calm down soon."

"Get ready to go on stage."

Pepper put the coat on Tony.

"Actually... Iron Man is pretty good too."

"I didn't even come up with such a nice name myself."

Pepper smiled and said: "You are not Iron Man."

"I am."

"You are not."

"Alright then, whatever."

Tony knew that arguing about this was meaningless.

However, he spoke again pointedly:

"If I were Iron Man, my girlfriend who knows my identity would definitely be very conflicted. She worries all day that I'll die, while at the same time feeling proud of me."

"But this will only make her more..."

"Love me."

Afterward.

Tony brought up the scene where they danced at the cocktail party that day.

For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.

However.

Pepper interrupted with deep resentment.

Because.

That day, Pepper waited upstairs for Tony for a long time.

As a result, Tony.

Saw the terrorist photos, was furious, and went to question someone.

Leaving Pepper hanging there.

Once these words were out, Tony didn't know what to say either.

Originally, he wanted to create an ambiguous atmosphere.

And find a chance to confess or something.

Even if he didn't confess, it would have improved their relationship.

Now, it's the opposite.

It's incredibly awkward.

Fortunately, it was his turn to speak now.

Just in time to run away.

Press conference.

Colonel Rhodes, seeing General Ross finish his speech.

Said: "Now, Mr. Stark will deliver a statement."
