Chapter 9

"Then come to my house to pick me up."

"Alright."

……

The person who called Karl was named Skye.

That is, the mixed-race beauty, Quake, from *Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.*

However, Skye had not yet joined S.H.I.E.L.D.

Nor did she have any superpowers.

Instead, she had become one of Karl's girlfriends...

Although Karl could be considered an ordinary person until today.

He was still a tall, rich, and handsome man.

Of course, he didn't lack girlfriends, and not just one.

One girlfriend in high school, one in college, plus an Asian actress.

Karl estimated that it wasn't actually too many?

Hmm, he felt he was still quite innocent.

Haven't you seen why Tony Stark is often in the headlines?

After changing into casual clothes, Karl tidied up his hair a bit.

Then, his figure flashed, and Karl disappeared instantly.

The next moment, Karl appeared in a small room.

Compared to his room, this place was really quite cramped.

But Karl didn't care.

He walked through the room with ease.

When he reached the bathroom door, he finally discovered a beautiful figure applying makeup in front of the mirror.

Karl smiled and greeted her, "Hi, Skye."

"Karl?"

Skye, who was applying makeup, was stunned, looking at Karl in front of the door in disbelief.

"You... how did you get here so fast?"

When she called Karl, Skye was just getting ready.

She didn't expect him to arrive so quickly?

You have to know, her house was not close to Karl's.

Karl walked into the bathroom and said with a smile: "Hmm, I'll tell you in a bit."

He came to Skye, gently stroked her hair, "But for now, I think it's still a bit early, we should go back to sleep for a while." Seeing Karl's actions, Skye immediately knew what he wanted to do.

She looked at the lipstick in her hand and whispered: "But... I just finished my makeup..." "Isn't that just perfect?"

Karl kissed Skye gently. He picked her up and walked toward the bedroom. ===== CHAPTER 25 =====

Noon.

Karl took a bottle of red wine and a glass from the refrigerator.

After pouring a glass, he tasted it leisurely.

At this moment, Skye was wrapped in a quilt, lying lazily on the sofa.

Karl asked with a smile: "Why don't you come live at my place?"

"Anyway, I have plenty of properties, and the place is big enough."

Skye, who was resting, shook her head and refused, "No, it's not like I don't have a place to live myself." "Alright."

Karl shrugged, he was used to it.

It wasn't the first time he had invited Skye.

It's just that she wouldn't go live at his house.

After thinking about it, Karl teased: "If you don't want to, then don't. But today we have to buy a sturdier bed." "Although it's no big deal that the bed collapsed, it's still quite a delay for sleep, isn't it?" Skye, upon hearing this, immediately took the pillow from under her and smashed it fiercely at Karl. ===== CHAPTER 26 =====

"Isn't it because of you, you jerk!"

There was a hint of resentment in her voice, "What's wrong with you today, why are you so excited?" "It's already noon, and you even collapsed my bed!"

You have to know, when she called Karl in the morning, it was only seven or eight o'clock.

Skye also knew that Karl was very strong.

After all, Karl had been practicing fighting since he was a child.

She had also prepared herself for it to take over an hour.

She didn't expect him to be so powerful today.

Karl laughed indifferently, "This is nothing; if I wanted to, I could go until tomorrow." "Bragging, if you have the ability, come on then!"

"Is that so?"

Karl smiled and walked toward Skye.

And Skye noticed Karl's change and was very shocked, "No way, for real? Are you even human?" Karl raised an eyebrow, "What else?"

Skye buried her head in the quilt and begged for mercy, "I was wrong, I was just joking." "I have no strength left in my body, you're the best."

"You win."

Karl smiled upon hearing this and patted Skye.

Then he picked up the wine glass on the coffee table, feeling happy.

In reality, he was telling the truth.

If he hadn't noticed that Skye was too tired, Karl could indeed have continued.

After all, he had obtained the Silver Superman template, which was completely different from before.

Hmm, it's just that he didn't expect that in just a few hours, the bed would collapse.

One can only say that this room of Skye's was indeed not very good.

Whether out of self-esteem or something else, Skye didn't move into Karl's house.

Instead, she chose to live in the small room she rented.

However, she didn't know.

Karl had already contacted the landlord and bought this room at fifteen percent above the market price.

Must say, the housing prices here were indeed cheap.

Even at fifteen percent above market price, it was much lower than the price Karl had expected.

Now it seems, cheap things are no good.

The bed even collapsed!

The quality was really not good; he should go find that seller to argue about it.

Now he even had to pay for Skye's bed!

What a profiteer.

……

Skye rested for a long while before slowly getting up to wash.

Karl had already finished a bottle of red wine and washed up.

It was past two o'clock when Skye finished tidying up.

Because the bed had collapsed, they had to go out to buy a new one.

Therefore, some personal items in the house had to be packed up.

Of course, they had to eat first.

The two first went to a high-end restaurant to eat, then went directly to a nearby mall.

This time, Karl spent two thousand dollars directly to buy a bed.

Speaking of which, he was a little regretful, why wasn't there anything more expensive in this mall?

He didn't believe that this bed could collapse again.

Because Skye still had to sleep at home at night, they went directly to Skye's house with the delivery staff.

The delivery staff were, of course, very enthusiastic.

Although this room was not big and didn't look like much. ===== CHAPTER 27 =====
